Highlight background depending on number of tracks existing on frame.
This is not so much mathematically accurate displaying where things
shall be improved, but it's nice feedback about which frames better
be reviewed.
Bad frames are tracks < 8, highlighted with red.
OK-ish frame are 8 <= tracks < 16, highlighted with yellow.
Could be some artifacts with color region start/end, this is a bit
unclear what exactly expected to be highlighted -- frames are
displayed as dots, but in fact they're quite noticeable segments.

besides performance in some cases.
* DAG_scene_sort is now removed and replaced by DAG_relations_tag_update in
most cases. This will clear the dependency graph, and only rebuild it right
before it's needed again when the scene is re-evaluated.
This is done because DAG_scene_sort is slow when called many times from
python operators. Further the scene argument is not needed because most
operations can potentially affect more than the current scene.
* DAG_scene_relations_update will now rebuild the dependency graph if it's not
there yet, and DAG_scene_relations_rebuild will force a rebuild for the rare
cases that need it.
* Remove various places where ob->recalc was set manually. This should go
through DAG_id_tag_update() in nearly all cases instead since this is now
a fast operation. Also removed DAG_ids_flush_update that goes along with
such manual tagging of ob->recalc.
Before this change only old flag "Premultiply" was used to
detect alpha mode, which is not enough actually.
Now the logic here is:
- If "Premultiply" was enabled it is likely float image with
straight alpha, which shall be premultiplied before usage.
In this case image/sequence Alpha Mode is set to Straight.
- Otherwise use default alpha mode for image format based on
an extension. This could fail in some cases like TIFF, but
this wasn't handled fully correct in older blender anyway.
Initial discovered issue was that EXR images saved in older
Blender versions were set to Straight alpha mode, which is
obviously a straight way to lots of headache.
The do-version handling for Userdef is outside file reading, which makes
it needed to store the file version in UserDef, so it gets the correct
version to handle.
Thanks Antonis R. for pointing at the omission!
Also removed the mindboggling define. If you do such, then make it
like "MAIN_VERSION_OLDER_THAN() or so.
In general version hacking could be limited much better... ask me
before even thinking to add one, most optimal is to do it in a way
it's not depending on a version ever - forward/backward compatible.
is straight or not (premultiplied is default).
This is useful in cases when you want to check on output of such nodes
as keying which does have straight alpha output.
Also added missing do_version code to previous compo do_versions.
Basically they're aimed to solve issues when scene with sky
was used for compositing. If compo used alpha output result
of current trunk would be completely different form hwo it
was before.
Two heuristics here:
- If there's no world or world color is black, it completely
equals to straight alpha mode, no further magic is needed
to preserve compatibility
- If scene is used as Render Layer node and something is
connected to Alpha output of this node, ensure alpha mode
for this scene is set to Premultiplied.
Basically it shall give better compatibility and make
4K mango project just happy! :)
The use alpha option moved from the texture datablock to the image, and now it
will duplicate the image datablock in case you have one texture using alpha and
the other not.
Issue was caused by couple of circumstances:
- Normal Map node requires tesselated faces to compute tangent space
- All temporary meshes needed for Cycles export were adding to G.main
- Undo pushes would temporary set meshes tessfaces to NULL
- Moving node will cause undo push and tree re-evaluate fr preview
All this leads to threading conflict between preview render and undo
system.
Solved it in way that all temporary meshes are adding to that exact
Main which was passed to Cycles via BlendData. This required couple
of mechanic changes like adding extra parameter to *_add() functions
and adding some *_ex() functions to make it possible RNA adds objects
to Main passed to new() RNA function.
This was tricky to pass Main to RNA function and IMO that's not so
nice to pass main to function, so ended up with such decision:
- Object.to_mesh() will add temp mesh to G.main
- Added Main.meshes.new_from_object() which does the same as to_mesh,
but adds temporary mesh to specified Main.
So now all temporary meshes needed for preview render would be added
to preview_main which does not conflict with undo pushes.
Viewport render shall not be an issue because object sync happens from
main thread in this case.
It could be some issues with final render, but that's not so much
likely to happen, so shall be fine.
Thanks to Brecht for review!
some of our artists work to much on trunk :) Especially our beloved Pablo Vazquez.
We increased the blender file sub-version for checking if translate nodes needed to be updated.
Happy blending.
This means you can for example, uv unwrap in quad-view and change settings in the toolbar without defaulting back to the first quad-view region available.
This may be displayed to the user later, for now this is set on executing registrable operators.
Constraints connect two rigid bodies.
Depending on which constraint is used different degrees of freedom
are limited, e.g. a hinge constraint only allows the objects to rotate
around a common axis.
Constraints are implemented as individual objects and bahave similar to
rigid bodies in terms of adding/removing/validating.
The position and orientation of the constraint object is the pivot point
of the constraint.
Constraints have their own group in the rigid body world.
To make connecting rigid bodies easier, there is a "Connect" operator that
creates an empty objects with a rigid body constraint connecting the selected
objects to active.
Currently the following constraints are implemented:
* Fixed
* Point
* Hinge
* Slider
* Piston
* Generic
Note: constraint limits aren't animatable yet).
Add read/write/interpolate functions.
In order to get rigid body point cache id from object it's now required to pass the
scene to BKE_ptcache_ids_from_object().
Rigid body cache is drawn in the orange color of the bullet logo.
Force fields work with rigid bodies just like they do with other simulations.
Increase min and max strength of force fields so they can influence heavy rigid
bodies.
TODO: Adjust force field strength based on the time step taken.

This is just the basic structure, the simulation isn't hooked up yet.
Scenes get a pointer to a rigid body world that holds rigid body objects.
Objects get a pointer to a rigdid body object.
Both rigid body world and objects aren't used directly in the simulation
and only hold information to create the actual physics objects.
Physics objects are created when rigid body objects are validated.
In order to keep blender and bullet objects in sync care has to be taken
to either call appropriate set functions or flag objects for validation.

Full log is here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.66/Usability#Matcap_in_3D_viewport
Implementation notes:
- Matcaps are an extension of Solid draw mode, and don't show in other drawmodes.
(It's mostly intended to aid modeling/sculpt)
- By design, Matcaps are a UI feature, and only stored locally for the UI itself, and
won't affect rendering or materials.
- Currently a set of 16 (GPL licensed) Matcaps have been compiled into Blender.
It doesn't take memory or cpu time, until you use it.
- Brush Icons and Matcaps use same code now, and only get generated/allocated on
actually using it (instead of on startup).
- The current set might get new or different images still, based on user feedback.
- Matcap images are 512x512 pixels, so each image takes 1 Mb memory. Unused matcaps get
freed immediately. The Matcap icon previews (128x128 pixels) stay in memory.
- Loading own matcap image files will be added later. That needs design and code work
to get it stable and memory-friendly.
- The GLSL code uses the ID PreviewImage for matcaps. I tested it using the existing
Material previews, which has its limits... especially for textured previews the
normal-mapped matcap won't look good.
- Previous commit had a line of code of WIP project in it... tss
- Packed Library data was not freed
- Removed recent (post 2.65a) code to exclude packed data from Undo system.
It's internal data thats part of file spec, errors happen for example on
restoring quit.blend or temp saves.
Using Proxy Armature on groups: an Undo now doesn't force a complete re-evalution
of this system anymore, so posing works similar as for regular (non linked)
armatures - an undo step goes back to the previous pose.
Before, an undo made the entire armature go to rest pose. Bad bad :)
I need animators to carefully check - report back if there's other issues!
Tested on Gilga character from Tube Open Movie.
Affect on curve radius only if offset/extrude was used,
otherwise radius could have been used for other things
(like controlling hair) which will likely break
compatibility.
Reported by Tube project guys.
This assumptions are now made:
- Internally float buffers are always linear alpha-premul colors
- Readers should worry about delivering float buffers with that
assumptions.
- There's an input image setting to say whether it's stored with
straight/premul alpha on the disk.
- Byte buffers are now assumed have straight alpha, readers should
deliver straight alpha.
Some implementation details:
- Removed scene's color unpremultiply setting, which was very
much confusing and was wrong for default settings.
Now all renderers assumes to deliver premultiplied alpha.
- IMB_buffer_byte_from_float will now linearize alpha when
converting from buffer.
- Sequencer's effects were changed to assume bytes have got
straight alpha. Most of effects will work with bytes still,
however for glow it was more tricky to avoid data loss, so
there's a commented out glow implementation which converts
byte buffer to floats first, operates on floats and returns
bytes back. It's slower and not sure if it should actually
be used -- who're using glow on alpha anyway?
- Sequencer modifiers should also be working nice with straight
bytes now.
- GLSL preview will predivide float textures to make nice shading,
shading with byte textures worked nice (GLSL was assuming straight
alpha).
- Blender Internal will set alpha=1 to the whole sky. The same
happens in Cycles and there's no way to avoid this -- sky is
neither straight nor premul and doesn't fit color pipeline well.
- Straight alpha mode for render result was also eliminated.
- Conversion to correct alpha need to be done before linearizing
float buffer.
- TIFF will now load and save files with proper alpha mode setting
in file meta data header.
- Remove Use Alpha from texture mapping and replaced with image
datablock setting.
Behaves much more predictable and clear from code point of view
and solves possible regressions when non-premultiplied images were
used as textures with ignoring alpha channel.
It introduces a new (py-extendable and registrable) RNA type, UIList (roughly similar to Panel one), which currently contains only "standard" list's scroll pos and size (but may be expended to include e.g. some filtering data, etc.). This now makes lists completely independent from Panels!
This UIList has a draw_item callback which allows to customize items' drawing from python, that all addons can now use. Incidentally, this also greatly simplifies the C code of this widget, as we do not code any "special case" here anymore!
To make all this work, other changes were also necessary:
* Now all buttons (uiBut struct) have a 'custom_data' void pointer, used currently to store the uiList struct associated with a given uiLayoutListBox.
* DynamicPaintSurface now exposes a new bool, use_color_preview (readonly), saying whether that surface has some 3D view preview data or not.
* UILayout class has now four new (static) functions, to get the actual icon of any RNA object (important e.g. with materials or textures), and to get an enum item's UI name, description and icon.
* UILayout's label() func now takes an optional 'icon_value' integer parameter, which if not zero will override the 'icon' one (mandatory to use "custom" icons as generated for material/texture/... previews).
Note: not sure whether we should add that one to all UILayout's prop funcs?
Note: will update addons using template list asap.
- Packing .blend files
If you work a lot with dynamic linked .blend files ("Libraries"), it's always hard to
share your work with others (or for bug reports!).
This new option packs all used external .blend files, and - on save - combines it together
in one .blend file. You can save that file on any location.
Loading a packed .blend file then loads all library data usual - not editable.
Just use unpack to save out all linked .blend files. This will only save out the files
according the directory structure as was used on linking - relative to the current .blend.
It will create new directories, so be careful with unpacking when relative paths go up.
This feature also works fine for linked compressed .blend files.
It also works for many levels deep linked .blend hierarchies.
Access is hidden for now - I need to get some people to give it serious testing first.
You can find the options via spacebar search (try pack or unpack).
- Packed data and Undo
Now all packed data is excluded from the Undo buffer storage. Keeps undo memory smaller
and makes faster redo possible.
Now scrollbars correctly hide and show, making space for the actual contents
in a region. It solves several old hacks, and puts view2d code a bit more
back in control as well.
Implementation notes:
- The view2d mask feature is working again
- The #define V2D_SCROLL_HORIZONTAL_HIDE means: "turn on hiding".
- Code for UI_view2d_region_reinit() is enforcing better standard view settings
But... two hack/patches needed to be added:
- Region panel drawing: if after generating the button panels it appears
a scroller hides or reveils, it calls all the generating code again.
(a simple scale doesn't work due to rounding differences in layout code)
- View2d code that maps 'tot' and 'cur' rects: if this code detects that
the mask changes, it calcs the map code again.
Also a bugfix (issue in 2.65)
- The left/bottom area split widget was drawing 1 pixel too large sometimes,
leaving bad trails on moving area dividers.
In case you accidentally link data in a library file from the main file, Blender would crash.
Now it survives, giving error messages to tell what to fix.
