and graph editor.
This was a tricky commit that was not so straightforward to make work.
The information for bones is not easy to come by in the animation curves,
however we do have some string manipulation tricks to make it happen.
Testing in gooseberry worked for the rigs there, commiting to master now
In the process, I've removed the old operator (ANIM_OT_channels_visibility_set)
and folded that option in with the hide operator, to make this consistent
with how this is done in the 3D view and other parts of Blender.
Now the hotkeys here work in line with what's done for other parts of Blender
* H = Hide selected
* Shift-H = Hide unselected (i.e. old VKEY behaviour)
* Alt-H = Reveal all
Revised the tools for managing which FCurves are visible in the Graph Editor
curves area. Now, there are the following tools in place:
* V (channels region only) = Hide all curves except those in selected channels [OLD]
* H = Hide all selected curves [NEW]
* Shift-H = Show all previously hidden curves [NEW]
I've removed the old operator to toggle visibility status of selected curves,
as it doesn't seem that useful anymore.
Quick fix, this is actually a demonstration of why we should use modal keymaps!
We can give any event to *start* the op, but then hard-code how to *end* it... tsk.
This uses a different operator than the other time editors (as it needs to support
the setting of the value-cursor too), so the changes here didn't get propagated through.
This commit introduces support for a number of new interpolation types
which are useful for motion-graphics work. These define a number of
"easing equations" (basically, equations which define some preset
ways that one keyframe transitions to another) which reduce the amount
of manual work (inserting and tweaking keyframes) to achieve certain
common effects. For example, snappy movements, and fake-physics such
as bouncing/springing effects.
The additional interpolation types introduced in this commit can be found
in many packages and toolkits (notably Qt and all modern web browsers).
For more info and a few live demos, see [1] and [2].

This operator used to be called "Jump to Frame". It basically takes the midpoint
(frame number and/or value) of selected keyframes, and positions the current
frame (or2d-cursor in Graph Editor) at this point.
The hotkey for this is now Ctrl-G (i.e. as it's similar to a "Goto Frame"
feature). It is also now in the Key menu instead of in the relatively obscure
View menu, even though it doesn't actually result in any keyframe edits taking
place.
(Also, fixed a typo/grammer issue with one of Remove Bone Group operator)
Adding/Rename markers (M/Ctrl-M) were restricted to only being
available when the mouse was hovering just over the time scroller at
the bottom of animation editors, as otherwise we'd get nasty keymap
conflicts where markers keymap would block all the primary function
keymaps.
However, in the case of Adding/Renaming markers, there are no other
keys which currently conflict with these in such cases. Hence, it is
fine to let these ones be able to be run from anywhere within the
animation editors, which should make it easier to add markers for
lipsyncing purposes again for example.
this is more commonly used that the TimeSlide tool (which is DopeSheet
only).
Noticed that this does bring this out of line with the hotkey for
setting extrapolation, but then again, extrapolation is a per-curve
setting.
Ported joeedh's Euler Filter code from Python to C so that this is
more in line with the other Graph Editor tools - i.e. joeedh's version
only worked on the active bone's curves, while standard tools could
work with multiple bones/objects at the same time.
To use this new version of this operator:
1) Select all the F-Curves for all 3 of the components (XYZ) for the
euler rotations you wish to clean up. In the Graph Editor, they must
be one after the other (i.e. you can't have "RotX, RotY, something
else, RotZ")
2) Activate the operator from the Key menu in the Graph Editor
In an old test file I have floating around, this method did not appear
to be good enough to fix a very clear discontinuity in the middle of
the action, so I'll test some additional methods too
Not really a "bug", but it was on my todo anyways. Based on patch
[#26508] by Campbell, with a few modifications including extending
this to the Action/DopeSheet editor too.
Shift+D in graph editor was an operator calling internally an operator.
Better is to make it a Macro, then Undos and Esc work nicely.
Note for API users: the operator "graph.duplicate" will now just
copy the selection and not run transform. Nicer too :)
