* Disable editable pointers for now, difficult to support well.
* Swap parameters in RNA_access.h functions to make it more
consistent.
* Rename rna members for operators to wmOperatorType.srna, and
wmOperator.ptr, to make the distincton a bit clearer.
• Removed the RNA_int_default and similar functions, they're too
confusing. RNA_property_is_set can still be used to achieve
the same goal.
* Add functions to create RNA pointers.
Some example code for RNA data access and operator properties:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/RNAExampleCode
* Wrap most user editable data in DNA_mesh_types.h and DNA_meshdata_types.h.
Still needs to be improved in some areas though, especially how to deal
with data layers (expose per element or as array, or both?), and data in
face corners (bmesh type data structures are more logical here).
Tweaks to RNA defining to make some cases easier:
* Added range callback function for int/float.
* Added 'skip' callback for listbase and array iterators to skip items in
the collection.
* Extra error print when calling wrong define_property_*_sdna functions.
* Also made button code respect non_editable flag, is quick change though,
need to add support for properly graying out etc.
- Added standard "tweak" gesture operator, which can be set per region, to
generate EVT_TWEAK events. You can configure tweaks for any mouse button
and have handlers for such events check for modifiers etc.
It even stores tweak direction (8 directions). Might be fun to experiment
with tweak gestures N, S, etc. :)
In general it can be used to replace the current tweak code in 2.48
(std_rmouse_transform).
Test added: on screen level it now adds LMB tweaks, if tweak-South it splits
the area. Will be removed of course.
- Added to Border operator a property to store event used to end border with.
- Moved the "AZone" triangle drawing to the right context (area). It was on
screen level, not respecting area-redraws. Also cleaned up drawing for it,
and moved the "swap buffers indicator" square to look nicer. Those squares
are only for test!
- event-match function had bad code for checking for event-value. Made a
"KM_ANY" define so keymaps can be defined ignoring event values.
- Gesture todo: lasso, "real gesture" (like blender now has)
* Added RNA for operators. This still uses ID properties internally,
but through the RNA API now. The OP_get/set_* API that was used is
replaced by the RNA API. Currently RNA properties for operators are
defined at runtime since it means operator registration can be done
in a single function.
* Changed the existing operators to use this system, I haven't defined
user interface names yet though. I also think there need to be some
conventions on which properties to expose to make these operators
usable in macros, for example if mouse coordinates should be stored
or not.
* When using ID properties through defined RNA properties, it now
checks that the ID property actually matches the RNA property and
removes/overwrites it otherwise. This ensures that you can safely
get/set arrays for example without having to worry that some
external thing may have changed the length.
* Documentation now has some information on RNA + ID properties.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/RNA
* More ID property support. What was already possible was showing
ID properties as RNA properties. Now it is possible to define
RNA properties and have an ID property automatically created the
first time it is set (if not set it retuns the default).
* Added support for defining RNA structs and properties at runtime.
This is useful for python and plugins, and could also be used
for operators, not sure yet what is best there, they could be done
in preprocess for speed, but not sure how to do that while keeping
operator registration a single function.
* Added quick functions to get/set properties based on names, to be
used for operators.
* Added some simple support for inheritance, was already doing this
but having it as a feature simplifies things. Two things were added
for this: when defining a struct you can give a 'from' struct whose
properties will be copied, and structs like ID, operator, modifier,
can define a refine callback that will return the more specific type
of the struct like ID -> Object, Mesh, .. .
* Added simple windowmanager wrap with only the registered operators
list, used for testing RNA for operators.
- operator definitions, callbacks, registry to WM and handlers for it are
now always in a file xxxx_ops.c or xxxx_operators.c, in the bottom you
will find the registry and handler code.
- fixed some confusing naming conventions "rip_area vs area_join" etc. Now
stick to convention to first name subject, then operation (like UI :).
So it's area_rip, screen_add, and so on.
- Nicely put exported calls (outside module) together in bottom: this using
names such as ED_screen_duplicate().
- Moved Operator-Property API to new C file.
- Simplified and cleaned previous border code
It was a bit too complex, too many data manipulations
Original idea was to have WM API calls to manage border, circle, lines,
lasso, etc. This now means that WM provides callbacks for custom operators,
so it's very easy to make them. Check bottom of screen_edit.c for an
example.
Currently two borders were coded; with and without cross hair.
Press Bkey in any area-region to test it (note: time window has wrong matrix!)
Some specs to note:
- gestures are in region space, and draw 'over'. That latter still needs some
work when we do real composites.
- only the active region is redrawn.
- on todo is the generic gesture engine for 'tweak' or like how currently grab
gestures in Blender work. These will be configurable per area-region, and WM
then will send the proper "Gesture Event" with properties (N, S, E, W, etc)
to which you then can assign operators. Such events will be generated with low
priority, so other handlers who swallowed mouse events have preference.
- moved from WM to Screen code (it uses active area)
- less code :) result of cleaning some calls
- added WM_window_open() to WM API for this
- now opens new window on top of area, and leaves old screen unaffected
(simple, atomic, the 'do not think for user' convention :)
* Added start of lamp wrapping (code by Michael Fox).
* Add back Object.data, was crashing with unknown data type.
* Added support for using consecutive variables like float r, g, b;
as an array without writing a manual get/set function.
* Also note the RNA documentation is updated now to be more
about how to define RNA and use it, including some diagrams.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/RNA
- cleaned up join and split operations. Most noticable is operator callback
design, which should make a design based on user-less exec() first, then
wrap invoke() and modal() around it. The exec() should be callable with
only Context and properties.
- split now works again; and inversed as previously, if you drag from a
triangle (action zone) inside area it subdivides area as expected.
- dragging from triangle outside area, over an edge, joins areas
- split has been simplified, it had too many options... it could just work
simpler (now)
- 'action zone' now is an operator itself, a widget sending an ACTIONZONE event,
which can be handled by others (so other gestures can be added in action zone
too)
Still evaluating:
- context gets set where?
- code structure confuses... what are proper functions for operators?
- what is WM... should low level screen stuff more there?
- when do you send event, notifier?
- files grow to large, will clean
Oh yeah and docs, docs, docs. Coming! :)
* Added support for ID properties, mapped as follows:
* IDP Int = RNA Int
* IDP Float, Double = RNA Float
* IDP_String = RNA String
* IDP Group = RNA IDPropertyGroup Struct
* IDP_Array = RNA Array
* PropertyRNA and StructRNA are now defined private for the module,
to force external code to always use accessor functions.
* Rename cname to identifier.
* Rename PropertyEnumItem to EnumPropertyItem.
* Wrapped min/max/step/precision, pointer type for RNA.
* Draw FLT_MAX a bit better in buttons.
* Added RNA list viewer. This is currently drawn in the outliner
window, the UI is limited but it is just intended to test RNA
at the moment.
* Added UI names for currently wrapped properties.
* Made iterating collections a bit more convenient.
* Added accessor functions for structs and properties instead of
direct access, in preparation of wrapping ID properties.
* Added more error prints for wrong defines.
* Wrap RNA data structures with RNA.
* Disable dependency code for now to avoid confusion.
svn merge https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/blender -r12987:17416
Issues:
* GHOST/X11 had conflicting changes. Some code was added in 2.5, which was
later added in trunk also, but reverted partially, specifically revision
16683. I have left out this reversion in the 2.5 branch since I think it is
needed there.
http://projects.blender.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php?view=rev&root=bf-blender&revision=16683
* Scons had various conflicting changes, I decided to go with trunk version
for everything except priorities and some library renaming.
* In creator.c, there were various fixes and fixes for fixes related to the -w
-W and -p options. In 2.5 -w and -W is not coded yet, and -p is done
differently. Since this is changed so much, and I don't think those fixes
would be needed in 2.5, I've left them out.
* Also in creator.c: there was code for a python bugfix where the screen was not
initialized when running with -P. The code that initializes the screen there
I had to disable, that can't work in 2.5 anymore but left it commented as a
reminder.
Further I had to disable some new function calls. using src/ and python/, as
was done already in this branch, disabled function calls:
* bpath.c: error reporting
* BME_conversions.c: editmesh conversion functions.
* SHD_dynamic: disabled almost completely, there is no python/.
* KX_PythonInit.cpp and Ketsji/ build files: Mathutils is not there, disabled.
* text.c: clipboard copy call.
* object.c: OB_SUPPORT_MATERIAL.
* DerivedMesh.c and subsurf_ccg, stipple_quarttone.
Still to be done:
* Go over files and functions that were moved to a different location but could
still use changes that were done in trunk.
This is based on the current trunk version, so these files should not need
merges. There's two things (clipboard and intptr_t) that are missing in 2.50
and commented out with XXX 2.48, these can be enabled again once trunk is
merged into this branch.
Further this is not all interface code, there are many parts commented out:
* interface.c: nearly all button types, missing: links, chartab, keyevent.
* interface_draw.c: almost all code, with some small exceptions.
* interface_ops.c: this replaces ui_do_but and uiDoBlocks with two operators,
making it non-blocking.
* interface_regions: this is a part of interface.c, split off, contains code to
create regions for tooltips, menus, pupmenu (that one is crashing currently),
color chooser, basically regions with buttons which is fairly independent of
core interface code.
* interface_panel.c and interface_icons.c: not ported over, so no panels and
icons yet. Panels should probably become (free floating) regions?
* text.c: (formerly language.c) for drawing text and translation. this works
but is using bad globals still and could be cleaned up.
Header Files:
* ED_datafiles.h now has declarations for datatoc_ files, so those extern
declarations can be #included instead of repeated.
* The user interface code is in UI_interface.h and other UI_* files.
Core:
* The API for creating blocks, buttons, etc is nearly the same still. Blocks
are now created per region instead of per area.
* The code was made non-blocking, which means that any changes and redraws
should be possible while editing a button. That means though that we need
some sort of persistence even though the blender model is to recreate buttons
for each redraw. So when a new block is created, some matching happens to
find out which buttons correspond to buttons in the previously created block,
and for activated buttons some data is then copied over to the new button.
* Added UI_init/UI_init_userdef/UI_exit functions that should initialize code
in this module, instead of multiple function calls in the windowmanager.
* Removed most static/globals from interface.c.
* Removed UIafterfunc_ I don't think it's needed anymore, and not sure how it
would integrate here?
* Currently only full window redraws are used, this should become per region
and maybe per button later.
Operators:
* Events are currently handled through two operators: button activate and menu
handle. Operators may not be the best way to implement this, since there are
currently some issues with events being missed, but they can become a special
handler type instead, this should not be a big change.
* The button activate operator runs as long as a button is active, and will
handle all interaction with that button until the button is not activated
anymore. This means clicking, text editing, number dragging, opening menu
blocks, etc.
* Since this operator has to be non-blocking, the ui_do_but code needed to made
non-blocking. That means variables that were previously on the stack, now
need to be stored away in a struct such that they can be accessed again when
the operator receives more events.
* Additionally the place in the ui_do_but code indicated the state, now that
needs to be set explicit in order to handle the right events in the right
state. So an activated button can be in one of these states: init, highlight,
wait_flash, wait_release, wait_key_event, num_editing, text_editing,
text_selecting, block_open, exit.
* For each button type an ui_apply_but_* function has also been separated out
from ui_do_but. This makes it possible to continuously apply the button as
text is being typed for example, and there is an option in the code to enable
this. Since the code non-blocking and can deal with the button being deleted
even, it should be safe to do this.
* When editing text, dragging numbers, etc, the actual data (but->poin) is not
being edited, since that would mean data is being edited without correct
updates happening, while some other part of blender may be accessing that
data in the meantime. So data values, strings, vectors are written to a
temporary location and only flush in the apply function.
Regions:
* Menus, color chooser, tooltips etc all create screen level regions. Such menu
blocks give a handle to the button that creates it, which will contain the
results of the menu block once a MESSAGE event is received from that menu
block.
* For this type of menu block the coordinates used to be in window space. They
are still created that way and ui_positionblock still works with window
coordinates, but after that the block and buttons are brought back to region
coordinates since these are now contained in a region.
* The flush/overdraw frontbuffer drawing code was removed, the windowmanager
should have enough information with these screen level regions to have full
control over what gets drawn when and to then do correct compositing.
Testing:
* The header in the time space currently has some buttons to test the UI code.
* Added functions to generate Timer events. There was some unfinished code to
create one timer per window, this replaces that with a way to let operators
or other handlers add/remove their own timers as needed. This is currently
delivered as an event with the timer handle, perhaps this should be a notifier
instead? Also includes some fixes in ghost for timer events that were not
delivered in time, due to passing negative timeout.
* Added a Message event, which is a generic event that can be added by any
operator. This is used in the UI code to communicate the results of opened
blocks. Again, this may be better as a notifier.
* These two events should not be blocked as they are intended for a specific
operator or handler, so there were exceptions added for this, which is one
of the reasons they might work better as notifiers, but currently these
things can't listen to notifier yet.
* Added an option to events to indicate if the customdata should be freed or
not.
* Added a free() callback for area regions, and added a free function for
area regions in blenkernel since it was already there for screens and areas.
* Added ED_screen/area/region_exit functions to clean up things like operators
and handlers when they are closed.
* Added screen level regions, these will draw over areas boundaries, with the
last created region on top. These are useful for tooltips, menus, etc, and
are not saved to file. It's using the same ARegion struct as areas to avoid
code duplication, but perhaps that should be renamed then. Note that redraws
currently go correct, because only full window redraws are used, for partial
redraws without any frontbuffer drawing, the window manager needs to get
support for compositing subwindows.
* Minor changes in the subwindow code to retrieve the matrix, and moved
setlinestyle to glutil.c.
* Reversed argument order in WM_event_add/remove_keymap_handler to be consistent
with modal_handler.
* Operators can now block events but not necessarily cancel/finish.
* Modal operators are now stored in a list in the window/area/region they were
created in. This means for example that when a transform operator is invoked
from a region but registers a handler at the window level (since mouse motion
across areas should work), it will still get removed when the region is closed
while the operator is running.
size buffer if it's big enough, and otherwise allocate memory.
* Added BLI_dynstr_appendf() to construct strings easily in printf
style, this should make it easier to construct menu strings for
example.
This commit adds an exception for rotations (standard rotation and tracball) to still work on children of transformed objects and bones in an expected fashion. That is, you can select a chain of finger bones and rotate to flex them all at once.
Notes:
[1] This could be expended to other transformations if needed.
[2] Center of transformation is determined using the same principle as hinge bones (transformed children aren't taken into account)
* merge the recent scons changes from trunk, so this means that the same rules now apply:
- scons-local available
- platform default configs updated
- check your user-config.py if you have made a full copy of default config
Note: BGE and blenderplayer still not working, but that is normal ;) (so turn them off!)
Modified to work in linux too, on my system subprocess.Popen(appstring) only works when appstring is a list.
Blenders __import__ didnt support keywords like pythons causing the subprocess module to fail for me.
added keywords to blenders c/api import to match pythons.
You can specify a image name (starting with 'IM') instead of a material
name in VideoTexture.materialID() and return the material ID matching
this texture.
The advantage of this method is that is works with blender material
and UV texture. In case of UV texture, it grabs the internal material
corresponding to the faces that are assigned to this texture. In case
of blender material, it grabs the material that has an image texture
matching the name as first texture channel.
In both cases, the texture id used in VideoTexture.Texture() should be 0.
Ex:
matID = VideoTexture.materialID(obj,'IMvideo.png')
GameLogic.video = VideoTexture.Texture(obj, matID, 0)
* Added more error prints for wrong definitions, for cases that
would laters cause problems compiling or crash at runtime, and
also made messages more clear.
* Added some skeleton code for main/ID/mesh/vertex types for testing.
* Added support for automatic arrays as collections using SDNA.
* Changed how pointers to data work. Now they are always wrapped
in a PointerRNA struct, which contains the data pointer and type,
and also the data pointer and type of the ID datablock that this
belongs to, since for example a vertex on it's own may not have
enough information for some operations, it also needs the mesh.
* Added some code for defining dependencies with RNA, and looking up
data with paths like: scenes[0].objects["Cube"].data.verts[7].co.
Note sure either will end up being used, this is experimental.

The problem is that the audio_fill_seq function try to load the hd file
if the sequence don't have it, but it join the two string (directory path +
file path) without the / (Linux... \ Windows), so the result is a wrong path.
I change the the strncpy and strncat function for a BLI_join_dirfile (like
the reload_sequence_new_file) and all work fine now.
Also note that the "them go" that Luca report is (or what happen here) the
ctrl+z function, and now both case work fine here.
(interesting.. date from Feb 05.. 2006 ;)
The FFmpeg library allows to load image files. Although it is possible
to load images using the VideoFFmpeg class, it is not very efficient.
The new class VideoTexture.ImageFFmpeg is dedicated to image management.
Constructor:
-----------
VideoTexture.ImageFFmpeg('image_file_name')
Opens the file but does not load the texture yet.
The file name can also be a network address. It can also be a video
file name; in that case only the first image is loaded.
Methods:
-------
refresh(True)
Loads the image to texture.
You just need to call it once, the file is automatically closed after
that and calling refresh() again will have no effect.
reload('new_file_name')
Reloads the image (if new_file_name is omitted) or loads a new image.
The file is opened but the texture is not updated yet, you need
to call refresh() once to load the texture.
Attributes:
----------
status
returns the image status:
2 : file opened, texture not loaded
3 : file closed, texture loaded
image
returns the image data as a string of RGBA pixel
size
returns the image size [x,y]
scale
get/set the scale flag.
If the scale flag is False, the image is rescale to texture format
using gluScaleImage() function, slow but good quality.
If the scale flag is True, the image is rescaled using a fast but
less accurate algorithm.
flip
get/set Y-flip flag.
Set to True by default as FFmpeg always provides the image upside down
filter
get/set filter(s) on the image.
Example:
