Converted the Object transform properties to use rna/rna buttons. This has the advantage of not only displaying/editing units, but also RMB menu, keyframing, drivers, etc too. Part of this was to convert 'Dimensions' to an rna property, converting to and from scale. This also allows you to set the object's dimensions via fcurves or python, but note that it's driving the object scale setting internally so if you animate both dimension and scale at the same time one will override the other (i don't expect many people to attempt this).
Boolean settings now use TOG instead of ICONTOG when they have icons, since ICONTOG was causing too much trouble with icons changing when they shouldn't be. Perhaps in future there should be some flag for specifying from RNA/UI-Layouts which one you want, but for now, this will do.
Reverting r23936 since that fix depended on ICONTOG behaviour.
* There's an unresolved error in transform_conversions.c which I've flagged in this commit. I'm not quite sure what the exact intentions of that code were (i.e. was the "void_pointer = 1" really intended)
- 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)
Active shape key can now be changed while in edit mode. This is based
on exit/enter editmode again in the background, which is not ideal,
as that loses the undo history. But that already happened anyway when
you did exit/change-active/enter manually.
Blended shape keys can now be displayed & edited in edit mode. This
is much like showing an armature modifier in edit mode, and shape keys
now are a applied as a virtual modifier (for mesh & lattice only, curve
doesn't fit in the stack well due to tilt).
The main thing missing still is being able to switch between the active
shape key in edit mode, that's more complicated.. but the weights of
other shapes can be edited while in edit mode.
One thing to be careful about is that this does automatic crazyspace
correction, which means that if you edit a shape key with a low value,
the actual vertices will be moved to correct for that and actually move
a (potentially much) longer distance.
Also includes some UI tweaks, mainly placing some buttons horizontally
since the vertical list was getting too long.
* Mouse wheel now scrolls the list.
* Up/down key and alt mouse wheel change the active item.
* Adding/removing items from the list now automatically scrolls so the
active item is in the view.
* Shift mouse wheel changes the size of the list widget to display more
items. Lazy replacement for a proper grip.
* Shape key list now displays the influence value next to the name,
* Also fix the range of the value slider to match the defined min/max
range.
Auto save is now working again in 2.5. It will also remember now what
the location of the original file was when recovering it, so that
library links still work and saving the restored file does not save to
the temp directory. There is also a new Recover Auto Save operator
which will open the filebrowser in the temp directory and show the
auto saved .blends.
Implemenation Notes:
* Timer storage was moved from window to windowmanager, so we can have
windowmanager level timers too now, doesn't make sense to have
autosave timer attached to a particular window.
* FileGlobal now has a filename field storing where the file was saved.
Note that this is only used when loading a file through the recover
operators, regular file read doesn't use it, so copying the quit.blend
manually over the original file will still work as expected.
* Jobs timer no longer uses operator now, this seems more like an
internal thing, changing keymaps should not make it possible to break
the jobs manager.
* Autosave is postponed by 10 seconds when a modal operator is running,
e.g. transform or file browsing.
* Moved setting G.sce in setup_app_data before depsgraph updates, these
can use the filename for pointcaches.
Also:
* UI now takes ID self check flag into account so that e.g. it
doesn't offer to the make object it's own parent.
* Mesh loop cuts number of cuts had wrong limits.
* Don't use mesh_get_derived_final in modifier stack, but
ob->derivedFinal instead. Avoids crashes on dependency loops,
and in case there is no loop it should have been created.
a system crash and other issues on ATI/Apple, due to a buggy driver
(similar issues reported for other OpenGL applications). For now, work
around it by not using non-power-of-two textures on this combination.
This patch was one of the patches submitted by Wolfgang W. (bender) (the others have already been committed). In the patch, there was commented out code for counter-clockwise rotation of the text, but I've removed that.
--
In this commit, I've also removed all of the panel tabbing code instead of merely commenting it out.
- Use an enum for grab modes rather then boolean options.
-- GHOST_kGrabNormal: continuous grab userpref disabled
-- GHOST_kGrabWrap: wrap the mouse at the screen bounds *
-- GHOST_kGrabHide: hide the mouse while grabbing and restore the mouse where it was initially pressed *
GrabWrap is nice for transform and tools where you want some idea where the cursor is, previously I found both restoring the mouse at its original location and restoring at a clamped location was confusing with operators like transform, wrapping is not ideal but IMHO the best of a bad bunch of options.
GrabHide is for numbuts, where restoring the mouse at the initial location isnt so confusing.
The dark bar for sliders will now be drawn in a way that takes into account the state of the slider (this includes info about keyframing and/or drivers). This means no more ambiguarity about whether these sliders are animated or not!
I've had to make a little hack here to make sure that the sliders bar will still be visible after the state has been blended, but this should probably be solved nicer by adding a separate setting for blending-factor in this case.
Added a base-template for editing/creating RNA-Paths. This is now used for KeyingSets and Driver UI's, so that when the actual magic gets put in, it will work.
* Converted Drivers UI to mostly use the Layout Engine
* All the buttons that perform actions are not operators yet (the code for that would be quite icky still)
* I've added some (commented out) calls for the property definitions of Driver properties to perform Depsgraph updates. I've left these commented out until we have the option to turn off auto-updates, since with driver editing, that could be very dangerous.
* Drivers can now (in theory) use any ID-block, using the Any-ID template added earlier. However, be warned that the stupid depsgraph won't be able to cope with most of these cases.
TODO:
- more fancy widgets for RNA-Path and Index will come later
Added new template for choosing to use any type of ID-block. The first combo box allows you to choose the type of ID-block that gets used, and the second box allows you to choose the ID-block of the type specified by the first one.
This is currently used for setting the ID-block used for Keying Sets, but the main user for this was intended to be the Drivers UI. However, I still need to clear up a few button-event issues there before I can port this over.
Additional Bugfixes:
* Adding new Keying Set path was setting the active path wrong, meaning that you had to click on the list to get some response after adding
* Bone Groups list was being drawn too long by default (when empty)
belongs here still, but this came up often, it avoids having to
switch tabs a lot when creating things.
Also renamed uiLayoutFreeBlock to uiLayoutAbsoluteBlock.
* #19583: Keying Sets list issues
Deleting a Keying Set (or a Keying Set Path) set the active index to 0, but that would mean that the first item would be selected but not visible.
* #19590: Keyframing properties of a modifier with more than one of it's type the property will highlight in all
- Modifiers now always have a unique name, so renaming a modifier should check that the name is unique. Most of the files changed in this commit were just to make sure that modifiers got unique names when they were created
- Modifiers path getter was wrapped a bit wrong (missing the "s around the name)
* Constraints Bugs
- Constraints renaming now also makes sure the names stay unique
- Fixed (or attempted to fix) compiler warnings about some enum declaration for distance constraint
Keymaps are now saveable and configurable from the user preferences, note
that editing one item in a keymap means the whole keymap is now defined by
the user and will not be updated by Blender, an option for syncing might be
added later. The outliner interface is still there, but I will probably
remove it.
There's actually 3 levels now:
* Default builtin key configuration.
* Key configuration loaded from .py file, for configs like Blender 2.4x
or other 3D applications.
* Keymaps edited by the user and saved in .B.blend. These can be saved
to .py files as well to make creating distributable configurations
easier.
Also, user preferences sections were reorganized a bit, now there is:
Interface, Editing, Input, Files and System.
Implementation notes:
* wmKeyConfig was added which represents a key configuration containing
keymaps.
* wmKeymapItem was renamed to wmKeyMapItem for consistency with wmKeyMap.
* Modal maps are not wrapped yet.
* User preferences DNA file reading did not support newdataadr() yet,
added this now for reading keymaps.
* Key configuration related settings are now RNA wrapped.
* is_property_set and is_property_hidden python methods were added.
* Loading old files didn't initialise the new rotation variables properly
* Fixed some errors with the newly added operator for copying RNA-paths for properties
* Auto-keyframing now correctly refreshes animation editors after adding keyframes. Made the keyingsets code send notifiers again, but now using the newly added WM_main_event_add() (thanks Brecht)
* A few UI tweaks again for animation stuff (timeline, keyingsets UI)
- Useful for dragging buttons to the far right when theyd otherwise hit the screen edge.
- Useful for transform though probably NOT what you want when using the transform manipulator (should make an option).
- When enabled, number buttons use this as well as a different conversion of mouse movement
float numbuts: mouse 1px == 1-clickstep
int numbuts: 2px == 1 (tried 1:1 but its too jitter prone)
details...
- access as an option to GHOST_SetCursorGrab(grab, warp)
- Currently all operators that grab use this, could be made an operator flag
- only Ghost/X11 supported currently
This calls a registered menu as a popup so we can reuse header menus , currently used for Node editor and Sequencer add menu (Shift+A), can be used for toolbox too.
* Code for generating 'Object' summary of Keyframes for DopeSheet (which is also used by the TimeLine for getting keyframes to draw) now considers materials, object data, and particles too.
* Rearranged the way that keyframing-related settings were presented in the User Preferences. The way the settings were grouped was plain confusing, and based on biased views from the old system. For the record, 'needed'+'visual' are always considered when inserting keyframes, 'always' is for autokeyframing, and default interpolation is only used for newly created F-Curves.
* Fixed bug #19472 - Scroll wheel scrolls in the wrong direction for enum-menus that were flipped (i.e. window type menu and 3d-view mode selector).
Added a way to view and edit Keying Sets via the Scene Buttons. These are still some tweaks needed to make this really workable, but should still work well enough for simply viewing and tweaking existing Keying Sets created using other means.
Additional bugfixes:
* Adjusted the size of labels on properties that had a 'label' for their name. Now it uses 1/3 of the total width instead, which looks much better for most cases.
* Added missing entries for adding Force Fields from the Info-header 'Add' menu. At some point we should unify this menu with the popup operator's one, since this is exactly the kind of situation we had hoped in avoid with new UI architectures.
* Moved all the operator defines for keyframing stuff to the 'intern' anim header instead
one active. Now there's a function to get the pointer + property from
the UI, just like for the animation operators.
Also two fixes for fileselect events, regions are now preserved so that
context is restored to the old region, and the cancel callback is called
when the operator is cancelled.
