undo.
The way this got updated from the context is a bit unreliable, and for handlers
the update couldn't happen because there is no context passed in. Now it's
updated from setup_app_data, which is where the change actually happens. I left
in the other updates to be sure but they should not be needed anymore.
* This patch changes the header statistics to something more meaningful
* Removed the blender.org string, version info is sufficient + not all Blender versions come directly from blender.org
* Use names like Faces, rather than abbreviations.
* Show Verts, Edges and Faces, independent of the current selection method in edit mode.
* Added TriCount into the header.
* Small change to the patch by myself, added a "v" in front of the version number.
- memset(..., -1) is used incorrectly even though it worked: MOD_solidify.c - thanks Halley from IRC for noticing this. use fill_vn_i() instead.
- quiet warnings in editmesh_slide.c
- cleanup comments in bmesh and some other minor comment additions.
--debug
--debug-ffmpeg
--debug-python
--debug-events
--debug-wm
This makes debug output easier to read - event debug prints would flood output too much before.
For convenience:
--debug-all turns all debug flags on (works as --debug did before).
also removed some redundant whitespace in debug prints and prefix some prints with __func__ to give some context.
render results would be displayed on loading new files if the scene names matches, now free render-results so as not to display stale data - also saves some memory.
Not all file formats/calls are supported yet. It will be expended.
Please from now on use BLI_fopen, BLI_* for file manipulations.
For non-windows systems BLI_fopen just calls fopen.
For Windows, the utf-8 string is translated to utf-16 string in order to call UTF version of the function.
so path manipulation functions dont run multiple times on the same path in the case of sequence strips where the one directory is used as the base for many images.
- define __BIG_ENDIAN__ or __LITTLE_ENDIAN__ with cmake & scons.
- ENDIAN_ORDER is now a define rather than a global short.
- replace checks like this with single ifdef: #if defined(__sgi) || defined (__sparc) || defined (__sparc__) || defined (__PPC__) || defined (__ppc__) || defined (__hppa__) || defined (__BIG_ENDIAN__)
- remove BKE_endian.h which isn't used
Speaker objects fully functional!
Minor changes:
* Fixed three memory bugs found via valgrind.
* Fixed bug with jack transport crashing after file loading.
* Sound NLA Strips now start at CFRA instead of 0.
Diff Keymaps
User edited keymaps now no longer override the builtin keymaps entirely, but
rather save only the difference and reapply those changes. This means they can
stay better in sync when the builtin keymaps change. The diff/patch algorithm
is not perfect, but better for the common case where only a few items are changed
rather than entire keymaps The main weakness is that if a builtin keymap item
changes, user modification of that item may need to be redone in some cases.
Keymap Editor
The most noticeable change here is that there is no longer an "Edit" button for
keymaps, all are editable immediately, but a "Restore" buttons shows for keymaps
and items that have been edited. Shortcuts for addons can also be edited in the
keymap editor.
Addons
Addons now should only modify the new addon keyconfiguration, the keymap items
there will be added to the builtin ones for handling events, and not get lost
when starting new files. Example code of register/unregister:
km = wm.keyconfigs.addon.keymaps.new("3D View", space_type="VIEW_3D")
km.keymap_items.new('my.operator', 'ESC', 'PRESS')
km = wm.keyconfigs.addon.keymaps["3D View"]
km.keymap_items.remove(km.keymap_items["my.operator"])
Compatibility
The changes made are not forward compatible, i.e. if you save user preferences
with newer versions, older versions will not have key configuration changes that
were made.
This fixes bug #26764 and several others like it, where modifier
properties (and others, but most visibly modifiers) would not do
anything when animated or driven, as modifier properties require the
RNA update calls to tag the modifiers to get recalculated.
While just adding a call to RNA_property_update() could have gotten
this working (as per the Campbell's patch attached in the report, and
also my own attempt #25881). However, on production rigs, the
performance cost of this is untenatable (on my own tests, without
these updates, I was getting ~5fps on such a rig, but only 0.9fps or
possibly even worse with the updates added).
Hence, this commit adds a property-update caching system to the RNA
level, which aims to reduce to the number of times that the update
functions end up needing to get called.
While this is much faster than without the caching, I also added an
optimisation for pose bones (which are numerous in production rigs) so
that their property updates are skipped, since they are useless to the
animsys (they only tag the depsgraph for updating). This gets things
moving at a more acceptable framerate.
Python:
* adds bpy.app.handlers which contains lists, each for an event type:
render_pre, render_post, load_pre, load_post, save_pre, save_post
* each list item needs to be a callable object which takes 1 argument (the ID).
* callbacks are cleared on file load.
Example:
def MyFunc(scene): print("Callback:", data)
bpy.app.handlers.render_post.append(MyFunc)
C:
* This patch adds a generic C callback api which is currently only used by python.
* Unlike python callbacks these are not cleared on file load.
- fix: user pref, window title was reset to 'Blender' on tab usage
- Undo history menu back:
- name "Undo History"
- hotkey alt+ctrl+z (alt+apple+z for mac)
- works like 2.4x, only for global undo, editmode and particle edit.
- Menu scroll
- for small windows or screens, popup menus now allow to display
all items, using internal scrolling
- works with a timer, scrolling 10 items per second when mouse
is over the top or bottom arrow
- if menu is too big to display, it now draws to top or bottom,
based on largest available space.
- also works for hotkey driven pop up menus.
- User pref "DPI" follows widget/layout size
- widgets & headers now become bigger and smaller, to match
'dpi' font sizes. Works well to match UI to monitor size.
- note that icons can get fuzzy, we need better mipmaps for it
- moved do_history into WM_write_file after successful write of .blend@ temporary file
- Added new file flag, to avoid writing history on writing the startup.blend, autosave files and undo.
Thanks Campbell, Brecht for review!
