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!
This codec is absolutely needed to generate DCP using OpenDCP,
before that external application to convert JP2 to J2K was used
which slowed down export a lot.
New codec is exposed to image format settings panel and called
Codec. Default one is JP2 which creates files with .jp2 extension,
new one is called J2K which creates with .j2c extension.
Other changes:
- Fixed avi jpeg warning which was treating as error here.
- Made it so extension is detecting from ImageFormatData instead
of image file type, which makes it possible to have different
extension for the same file type depending on it's settings.
IRIS format should still be changed (depending on number of
channels it'll be .bw, .rgb or .rgba extension)
- Default image format settings would be set from image buffer
when re-saving it. Makes it possible to easily open .j2c file
and save it using J2K codec (without this change it'll save as
.jp2 using JP2 codec)
- Make sure functions are named in way BKE_<object>_<action> (same way as RNA callbacks)
- Make functions which are used by mball.c only static and remove their prototypes
from public header file.
Further cleanup is coming.
This fix adds a "ref_id" ID pointer to BKE_all_animdata_fix_paths_rename() & co, which is the ID against which prefix+oldName/NewName is "applied", currently only used for drivers' bones targets. Just pass NULL to get same behavior as previously. A bit annoying to make such a change for such a specific case, but there seems to be no other way to go... :/
These changes are to make the bmesh api more consistent and easier to learn, grouping similar functions which is convenient for autocomplete.
This uses similar convention to RNA.
* use face/loop/edge/vert as a prefix for functions.
* use 'elem' as a prefix too for functions that can take any type with a BMHeader.
* changed from camel case to underscore separated (like RNA).
Added option display_type to WM_operator_properties_filesel which defines which file
display type (short/list/icons/default) should be used for file browser.
All current operators are using FILE_DEFAULTDISPLAY display type which means display
type will still be calculated based on type of opening file and user preferences
settings. Recover Auto Save operator is now using long display type so file date can
easily be checked now.

CTX_data_pointer_get_type(C, "object", &RNA_Object).data
with api call:
ED_object_context(C)
... since getting the context object is such a common operation.
details:
- setting format options from python isnt possible anymore since this isnt exposed via op->properties, python should use image.save() function instead.
- image save UI now hides 'Relative' option when copy is selected since it has no effect.
- default image depth is set to 8 or more if the image has no float buffer, otherwise its set to 32 or less.
other fixes:
- image new was adding an image with a filepath set to "untitled", if this file happened to exist in the current directory a save on the generated image would overwrite it, now initialize to empty path.
- BKE_ftype_to_imtype was returning an invalid value if ftype==0.
* Scene.use_shading_nodes property to check if RenderEngine is using new shading
nodes system, and RenderEngine.bl_use_shading_nodes to set this.
* Add mechanism for tagging nodes as being compatible with the old/new system.
- initialize the relative_path option in ED_fileselect_get_params(), saves initializing within every operators own init functions, some even trying to initialize a non existing property.
- don't set the operator default from the user preferece, operator property defaults should be static else python scripts for eg can get different defaults depending on user settings, this also wont get updated when user-defaults are edited so generally confusing & not good practice.
