- no 2-step select edge, then slide. Instead you can slide and select the edge at the same time.
- ability to slide multiple verts at one.
supports proportional option for vertex slide and flipping, both matching edge slide functionality.
projecting it. The original paper suggests to simply interpolate between
the two points of an edge if the distance of the point to that edge is
smaller than a threshold.
* Fixed both 3D and 2D code to utilize this. Possibly other places in
blender where this scaling is done will have to be adjusted.
* Changed vertex interpolation to use 2D interpolation, since it already
did projection on plane and 2d calculations are faster.
* Also added notifier on hard recalc when uvcalc_transfor_correction is
used. Results in instant feedback on UV editor when edge sliding.
- add sequence.update(data=False) function.
- made some sequence vars editable.
- correct some comments.
also rename rna function sequence.getStripElem() --> strip_elem_from_frame()
There's many hardcoded scrollwheel events in Blender for this, and with new proper
analog trackpad handling I'll try to find good remapping for most cases.
Editmode "Shear" didn't communicate well.
- Added X and Y shortcut to set shear axis
- Added print in header to denote that.
It will still switch with MMB press too.
Disconnected bones can be translated in pose mode but this translation
cannot be applied to the iTaSC representation of the armature because
there is no joint associated with it. As a result, moving disconnected
bones had no effect. The bug fix is in two parts:
1) manual or rna change in the armature pose will cause automatic
rebuilding of the iTaSC scene
2) the iTaSC scene is now built from the current pose instead of
armature rest pose
Particle combing didn't always respond as expected. The combed effect was
depending on the center of object in view, instead of on the center of
selected hairs. That made combing in certain close ups impossible.
Same was actually true for transform tools for hairs!
And even worse - there was an optimize break in calculating center
which wasn't true even. Causing centers for transform to fail similar
in other cases.
caused by not projecting points behind the perspective view,
even though this worked in 2.64 the values were flipped (rotating direction was reversed and the center point was flipped).
added V3D_PROJ_TEST_CLIP_NEAR, when omitted ED_view3d_project_*** will project points from behind a perspective view plane.
ED_region_visible_rect(ar, rect)
Returns the visible rect inside a region, subtracting the overlapping UI regions.
Added with minimal overhead, only called once per region draw.
Also fixes the 'Auto Key' warning print in 3d window (was behind properties)
impossible. In this case matrix inversion failed and didn't give a useful result.
Now it falls back to a pseudoinverse in that case, so that moving along the
other axes still works.
There may be other places that can benefit from this, but this is a place where
it has no significant performance impact, doing this in general for e.g. bone
matrices could be quite slow.
Nice formatted version (pictures soon):
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.66/Usability
Short list of main changes:
- Transparent region option (over main region), added code to blend in/out such panels.
- Min size window now 640 x 480
- Fixed DPI for ui - lots of cleanup and changes everywhere. Icon image need correct size still, layer-in-use icon needs remake.
- Macbook retina support, use command line --no-native-pixels to disable it
- Timeline Marker label was drawing wrong
- Trackpad and magic mouse: supports zoom (hold ctrl)
- Fix for splash position: removed ghost function and made window size update after creation immediate
- Fast undo buffer save now adds UI as well. Could be checked for regular file save even...
Quit.blend and temp file saving use this now.
- Dixed filename in window on reading quit.blend or temp saves, and they now add a warning in window title: "(Recovered)"
- New Userpref option "Keep Session" - this always saves quit.blend, and loads on start.
This allows keeping UI and data without actual saves, until you actually save.
When you load startup.blend and quit, it recognises the quit.blend as a startup (no file name in header)
- Added 3D view copy/paste buffers (selected objects). Shortcuts ctrl-c, ctrl-v (OSX, cmd-c, cmd-v).
Coded partial file saving for it. Could be used for other purposes. Todo: use OS clipboards.
- User preferences (themes, keymaps, user settings) now can be saved as a separate file.
Old option is called "Save Startup File" the new one "Save User Settings".
To visualise this difference, the 'save startup file' button has been removed from user preferences window. That option is available as CTRL+U and in File menu still.
- OSX: fixed bug that stopped giving mouse events outside window.
This also fixes "Continuous Grab" for OSX. (error since 2009)
not exactly a bug - zero area faces from a cancelled extrude gave issues - but this is a common use case, so make it work by only using selected faces when calculating the vertex shell thickness.
this may introduce bugs which I didn't catch, but they are very easy to identify in a debug build which has asserts to ensure the arrays are valid before use.
in my own test drawing ~98,304 quads - this gave an overall ~16% drawing speedup.
