This patch allows Blender to display i18n monospace font in the text
editor and the Python interactive console. Wide characters that occupy
multiple columns such as CJK characters can be displayed correctly.
Furthermore, wrapping, selection, suggestion, cursor drawing, and
syntax highlighting should work.
Also fixes a bug [#34543]: In Text Editor false color in comment on cyrillic
To estimate how many columns each character occupies, this patch uses
wcwidth.c written by Markus Kuhn and distributed under MIT-style license:
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/wcwidth.c
wcwidth.c is stored in extern/wcwidth and used as a static library.
This patch adds new API to blenfont, blenlib and blenkernel:
BLF_get_unifont_mono()
BLF_free_unifont_mono()
BLF_draw_mono()
BLI_wcwidth()
BLI_wcswidth()
BLI_str_utf8_char_width()
BLI_str_utf8_char_width_safe()
txt_utf8_offset_to_column()
txt_utf8_column_to_offset()
Added "Panel Title" style to Theme settings.
Allows to make these nice larger or draw differently.
Also tried to put hinting in Style, but this needs to be a per-font
setting. uiFont data is still not being saved (also not allowing
to set own font files for UI). That's a todo for 267 then.
Nice formatted version (pictures soon):

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)
Replace old color pipeline which was supporting linear/sRGB color spaces
only with OpenColorIO-based pipeline.
This introduces two configurable color spaces:
- Input color space for images and movie clips. This space is used to convert
images/movies from color space in which file is saved to Blender's linear
space (for float images, byte images are not internally converted, only input
space is stored for such images and used later).
This setting could be found in image/clip data block settings.
- Display color space which defines space in which particular display is working.
This settings could be found in scene's Color Management panel.
When render result is being displayed on the screen, apart from converting image
to display space, some additional conversions could happen.
This conversions are:
- View, which defines tone curve applying before display transformation.
These are different ways to view the image on the same display device.
For example it could be used to emulate film view on sRGB display.
- Exposure affects on image exposure before tone map is applied.
- Gamma is post-display gamma correction, could be used to match particular
display gamma.
- RGB curves are user-defined curves which are applying before display
transformation, could be used for different purposes.
All this settings by default are only applying on render result and does not
affect on other images. If some particular image needs to be affected by this
transformation, "View as Render" setting of image data block should be set to
truth. Movie clips are always affected by all display transformations.
This commit also introduces configurable color space in which sequencer is
working. This setting could be found in scene's Color Management panel and
it should be used if such stuff as grading needs to be done in color space
different from sRGB (i.e. when Film view on sRGB display is use, using VD16
space as sequencer's internal space would make grading working in space
which is close to the space using for display).
Some technical notes:
- Image buffer's float buffer is now always in linear space, even if it was
created from 16bit byte images.
- Space of byte buffer is stored in image buffer's rect_colorspace property.
- Profile of image buffer was removed since it's not longer meaningful.
- OpenGL and GLSL is supposed to always work in sRGB space. It is possible
to support other spaces, but it's quite large project which isn't so
much important.
- Legacy Color Management option disabled is emulated by using None display.
It could have some regressions, but there's no clear way to avoid them.
- If OpenColorIO is disabled on build time, it should make blender behaving
in the same way as previous release with color management enabled.

Thanks to Xavier Thomas, Lukas Toene for initial work on OpenColorIO
integration and to Brecht van Lommel for some further development and code/
usecase review!
- Mipmaps are generated in BLF when drawing text in-game. In that case, padding around each glyph is increased to prevent bleeding.
- Texture filtering is turned on for in-game text.
- All glyphs are now "twisted": the leading edge is brought a small distance forward, to prevent z-fighting in overlapping (kerned) glyphs. This happens both in the game engine and the rest of the UI, but should have no effect in the UI due to Z-compression in the clipping matrix.
Reviewed and approved by bdiego; see patch [#29882] in the tracker. Tested by dfelinto.
Copy unifont..ttf.gz from source tree to target datafile path( now ONLY works with cmake );
Set the locale the same with system's setting;
If need unicode font, unzip and load unifont when init ui styles;
Apply gettext() to labels in space_info.py, who are the main menu items.
Each of these should have been commit one by one. As they work well according to my tests, so I just lazily send a long list.
This is need to properly handle 3d text (dalai work on GE), before
the BLF_aspect only take one argument, and the result was a call to:
glScalef(aspect, aspect, 1.0)
Now the three value are store in the font (x, y and z) and also
need to be enable using BLF_enable(BLF_ASPECT).
By default all the code that don't have BLF_ASPECT enable work with
a scale of 1.0 (so nothing change to the current UI).
I also remove all the call of BLF_aspect(fontid, 1.0) found in
the editors, because is disable by default, so no need any more.
Campbell the only thing to check is the python api, right now
I modify the api to from:
BLF_aspect(fontid, aspect)
to:
BLF_aspect(fontid, aspect, aspect, 1.0)
This is to avoid break the api, but now you need add the BLF_ASPECT
option to the function py_blf_enable and in some point change
py_blf_aspect to take 3 arguments.
This option allow the user to set a 4x4 matrix to be
multiplied before draw the text, for example:
double *m;
/* Get the matrix or build it! */
BLF_matrix(m);
BLF_enable(BLF_MATRIX);
/* set color, size, etc and draw! */
BLF_disable(BLF_MATRIX);
You don't need the last line (disable), but remember
that if you use the font to draw in any other place,
the matrix will be used!.
The GL code is:
glPushMatrix();
glMultMatrixd(m);
glTranslatef();
glScalef();
glRotatef();
glPopMatrix();
Let's Dalai test this!!! :D
(userpref->system), with a great help from brecht (its been way too long
for me).
However as brecht pointed out that the non-AA text is slightly lareger
then AA'ed Text :S, i did not do anything about this as this commit was
just the option not the text drawing.
this commit also makes it possible to do all kinds of UI textrender options
- ascii text drawing functions, slightly faster since they dont have to do hash lookups & utf8 conversions for each char.
- used ascii drawing functions for the view3d's number display.
- each text item was using fixed 128 chars, now only allocate the string length needed.
[#20854] PROPERTIES STAMP: Rendering stamp flickers in output renders
Blenfont was not thread safe, that is why one thread can change
the font properties (size, dpi, color, etc) at the same time
that the stamp draw on the image, and then the problem.
To make blenfont thread safe I have to change two important things:
1) Every BLF_* function take one argument, the font id.
2) We have two new function to make font "thread safe":
BLF_load_unique
BLF_load_mem_unique
This two function are for case like stamp, that need and own font
that don't share the glyph cache, so can draw without problem
in a different thread.
Why the BLF_*_unique function ?
Because blenfont keep only one copy of a font and keep a list of
"glyph cache". Every glyph cache have size and dpi, so if two
different thread access the same font at the same time, they can
change value and finish with something like the stamp problem.
Why don't remove the glyph cache ?
Because if we do that, we finish with a font object for every size
and dpi, and the stamp is really a special case that happen in
the rendering process, so I really thing is better keep the
glyph cache and make this two new function to handle this
special case.
(When I say "font object" I mean have the same freetype font multiple
times just to have differents size and dpi)
As Matt point we still can have one case that two thread access
the BLF_*_unique function at the same time, but I am looking to
fix this with some class of thread lock.
For now I test and work fine, so if some one found problem, please
let me know.
Campbell I have to change the python api (python/generic/blf_api.c)
to the new syntax, so maybe you can take a look at this.
A couple of new functions:
BLF_width_and_height - Merge of BLF_width and BLF_height in one call to avoid freetype2 stuff.
BLF_buffer - Set the buffer, size and number of channel.
BLF_buffer_col - Set the text color (the alpha is not used right now).
BLF_draw_buffer - Draw the text in the current buffer.
Also tweak a little the boundbox and draw function to avoid access the freetype2 and use the cache info.
By default the font size is 12, the UI still need work to allow change the font and size.
As Joe point on a previous mail, glBitmap don't work nice
on all cards and also some of the things that we can do
with texture are hard (or need that blender check the font mode)
to implement.
