screen verts were being rounded so resizing a window would end up moving the border in one direction.
for this to work properly we should store floats internally but for now compensate for this.
- removed deprecated bitmap arg from IMB_allocImBuf (plugins will need updating).
- mostly tagged UNUSED() since some of these functions look like they may need to have the arguments used later.
Submitted by Shane Ambler.
The original patches made an enum for action zone edges, changed positioning for minimised icons and repositioned minimised icon for operator properties panel.
I kept the enum idea, but further improved on the naming. Some switches used in place of if/else blocks and added some comments. See patch tracker for more comments.

From patch description:
"
Handler is now released on every exit from File Selector. For example pressing ctrl-up and then changing editor type
to another also releases the handler.
When an area is changed from SPACE_FILE, ED_fileselect_exit is called for clean up. It takes function of freeing folder
list and files (before it was done in cancel or exec functions) because they must be released on every exit anyway.
op!=null means cancel or exec was not executed so a handler was not released. ED_fileselect_exit then releases the handler
without changing screens.
"
Thanks!
Playback Jog Keys:
ALT+LEFTARROW: play backward (hit again for double speed)
ALT+RIGHTARROW: play fordward (hit again for double speed)
ALT+DOWNARROW: start/stop animation
This started off doing pointcache debugging but it's also very useful for users too.
Previously it was very hard to see the state of the system when you're working caches
such as physics point cache - is it baked? which frames are cached? is it out of date?
Now, for better feedback, cached frames are drawn for the active object at the bottom
of the timeline - a semitransparent area shows the entire cache extents, and more
solid blocks on top show the frames that are cached. Darker versions indicate it's
using a disk cache.
It can be disabled in general in the timeline View -> Caches menu, or by each individual
system that can be shown.
There's still a bit to do on this, behaviour needs to be clarified still eg. deciding what
shows when it's out of date, or when it's been played back but not cached, etc. etc.
Part of this is due to a lack of definition in the point cache system itself, so we should
try and clean up/clarify this behaviour and what it means to users, at the same time.
Also would be interested in extending this to other caches such as fluid cache,
sequencer memory cache etc. in the future, too.
Only source/blender/editors/ dir, should not give errors on different platforms
Only removing: UI_*.h, ED_*.h, WM_*.h, DNA_*.h, IMB_*.h, RNA_*.h, PIL_*.h
Note, this is not like GE ffmpg, but Blender Image Texture
display for GLSL materials. Speed can be disappointing,
use smaller images for realtime edits.
This commit restores the 'Playback FPS' option which showed an indicator of the frame rate of animation playback in the 3D-View.
The info for this is now stored in a temp struct in scene data, with the status info being updated by the "animation step" operator instead of relying on globals as the old code did. This seems a lot more stable than in 2.49, but the accuracy is still questionable.
Blender too now! :)
** Drag works as follows:
- drag-able items are defined by the standard interface ui toolkit
- each button can get this feature, via uiButSetDragXXX(but, ...).
There are calls to define drag-able images, ID blocks, RNA paths,
file paths, and so on. By default you drag an icon, exceptionally
an ImBuf
- Drag items are registered centrally in the WM, it allows more drag
items simultaneous too, but not implemented
** Drop works as follows:
- On mouse release, and if drag items exist in the WM, it converts
the mouse event to an EVT_DROP type. This event then gets the full
drag info as customdata
- drop regions are defined with WM_dropbox_add(), similar to keymaps
you can make a "drop map" this way, which become 'drop map handlers'
in the queues.
- next to that the UI kit handles some common button types (like
accepting ID or names) to be catching a drop event too.
- Every "drop box" has two callbacks:
- poll() = check if the event drag data is relevant for this box
- copy() = fill in custom properties in the dropbox to initialize
an operator
- The dropbox handler then calls its standard Operator with its
dropbox properties.
** Currently implemented
Drag items:
- ID icons in browse buttons
- ID icons in context menu of properties region
- ID icons in outliner and rna viewer
- FileBrowser icons
- FileBrowser preview images
Drag-able icons are subtly visualized by making them brighter a bit
on mouse-over. In case the icon is a button or UI element too (most
cases), the drag-able feature will make the item react to
mouse-release instead of mouse-press.
Drop options:
- UI buttons: ID and text buttons (paste name)
- View3d: Object ID drop copies object
- View3d: Material ID drop assigns to object under cursor
- View3d: Image ID drop assigns to object UV texture under cursor
- Sequencer: Path drop will add either Image or Movie strip
- Image window: Path drop will open image
** Drag and drop Notes:
- Dropping into another Blender window (from same application) works
too. I've added code that passes on mousemoves and clicks to other
windows, without activating them though. This does make using multi-window
Blender a bit friendler.
- Dropping a file path to an image, is not the same as dropping an
Image ID... keep this in mind. Sequencer for example wants paths to
be dropped, textures in 3d window wants an Image ID.
- Although drop boxes could be defined via Python, I suggest they're
part of the UI and editor design (= how we want an editor to work), and
not default offered configurable like keymaps.
- At the moment only one item can be dragged at a time. This is for
several reasons.... For one, Blender doesn't have a well defined
uniform way to define "what is selected" (files, outliner items, etc).
Secondly there's potential conflicts on what todo when you drop mixed
drag sets on spots. All undefined stuff... nice for later.
- Example to bypass the above: a collection of images that form a strip,
should be represented in filewindow as a single sequence anyway.
This then will fit well and gets handled neatly by design.
- Another option to check is to allow multiple options per drop... it
could show the operator as a sort of menu, allowing arrow or scrollwheel
to choose. For time being I'd prefer to try to design a singular drop
though, just offer only one drop action per data type on given spots.
- What does work already, but a tad slow, is to use a function that
detects an object (type) under cursor, so a drag item's option can be
further refined (like drop object on object = parent). (disabled)
** More notes
- Added saving for Region layouts (like split points for toolbar)
- Label buttons now handle mouse over
- File list: added full path entry for drop feature.
- Filesel bugfix: wm_operator_exec() got called there and fully handled,
while WM event code tried same. Added new OPERATOR_HANDLED flag for this.
Maybe python needs it too?
- Cocoa: added window move event, so multi-win setups work OK (didnt save).
- Interface_handlers.c: removed win->active
- Severe area copy bug: area handlers were not set to NULL
- Filesel bugfix: next/prev folder list was not copied on area copies
** Leftover todos
- Cocoa windows seem to hang on cases still... needs check
- Cocoa 'draw overlap' swap doesn't work
- Cocoa window loses focus permanently on using Spotlight
(for these reasons, makefile building has Carbon as default atm)
- ListView templates in UI cannot become dragged yet, needs review...
it consists of two overlapping UI elements, preventing handling icon clicks.
- There's already Ghost library code to handle dropping from OS
into Blender window. I've noticed this code is unfinished for Macs, but
seems to be complete for Windows. Needs test... currently, an external
drop event will print in console when succesfully delivered to Blender's WM.
Fun bug, took me the better part of the day to track down.
Happens because maximizing swaps spacedata lists between the old area and the newly created maximized area (this one being empty) while ui handlers are still hanging with references to the first area (then trying to access spacedata when handled). And then only if a maximizing operator was run before the UI realign timer event from the previous maximize was handled (fun, I told you).
After discussion with Matt on irc, we decided the best way to deal with that was to remove ui handlers that reference areas of a screen that is no longer used. That solution reflects the fact that the bug is more general that the reproducing steps would lead to believe. There's also absolutely no reason to run UI handlers on invisible areas.
Currently access by selecting a marking and binding with the active camera from the view menu.
Note:
after long discussion we decieded there is no nice way to do this.. animate pointers? animate multiple camera visibility?, use sequencer? use NLA?.... have a kind of event system (like framechange scriptlinks)... etc
so this is ifdef'd with DURIAN_CAMERA_SWITCH
* Property update functions no longer get context, instead they get only
Main and Scene. The RNA api was intended to be as context-less as
possible, since it doesn't really matter who is changing the property,
everything that uses the property should be updated.
* There's still one exception case that use it now, screen operations
still depend on context too much. It also revealed a few places using
context where they shouldn't.
* Ideally Scene shouldn't be passed, but much of Blender still depends on
it, should be dropped when we try to support multiple scene editing.
Change was planned for a while, but need this now to be able to call
update without a context pointer.
Now, temp screens are hidden from being accessed directly, with a new 'Back to Previous' button appearing in place of the screen menu when (for example) fullscreen render image areas are present. Window type menus also get disabled here too, to prevent things from getting too mixed up.
Playback of animation will now be restored to the frame that playback started on when stopping if the SCREEN_OT_animation_cancel operator is used (i.e. ESCKEY).
All other ways of stopping playback (pause button, alt-a) should act more like toggles, and do not reset the playhead.
- Generated and uploaded api docs - http://www.blender.org/documentation/250PythonDoc
- Added Edit docs menu item & operators as discussed with Mindrones, Brecht, Stani & Letterip @ bconf, needs some web backend. python operator can aparently use xml/rpc to upload docstrings.
- Added operator invoke function - context.manager.invoke_props_popup(self.__operator__, event)
this calls a popup for invoke by default (which intern calls execute())
- Own recent commit to game framing applied to non-camera views too.
- v3d->persp is deprecated but still used in some places.
- Transforming strips could overlap 1 frame if moving them below frame 0
- Transforming overlapping strips could go into an eternal loop (though overlapping strips should not exist)
