Now, there are preset brushes made for each tool type (eg. for sculpt mode, Grab,
Draw, Inflate, etc), and the recommended method for changing sculpt tools is to
change between Brushes. The shortcut keys for changing between tools have
now been changed to change between named brushes - the G key in sculpt
mode now changes to any brush named 'Grab'.
The advantages of this are:
* Changing between brushes remembers the strength/size/texture etc settings for
each brush. This means that for example, you can draw with a strong textured
Clay brush, but then switch quickly to a weaker, untextured Smooth brush,
without having to re-do your settings each time.
* You can now add your own custom shortcut keys to your own custom brushes -
just add a keymap entry similar to the existing ones, that references your own
custom brush names.
To bring over these new default brushes to an existing B.blend setup, just
append them in from the new B.blend in svn.
Useful if you have 2 different characters with the same base mesh (matching indicies), and want to copy a facial expression for eg, from one to another.
Durian request to re-use shapes between characters.
* Copies the active shape to other selected objects
* Different methods to apply the shape
* * OFFSET, simple translation offset
* * RELATIVE (EDGE/FACE), Use Barycentric transformation to copy the shape. This means the target mesh can be a different orientation and scale and the shape should still apply since the surrounding geometry is used as a basis for the offset.
bug: barycentric transform's depth was inverted.
Note:
* This isnt added into a menu yet,
* This cant be redone since adding a shape key messes up the redo stack. needs fixing for other scripts too.
py_function_args wasnt working right (was using function namespace for function args), use pythons inspect module instead.
move the function to get a type description into rna_info
- view docs menu item opens sphinx URL
- can be searched (even when local)
- uses rna_info module for introspection
- also documents python defined functions and decorator properties (defined in bpy_types.py)
- experemental python file:line references for python operators.
* Moved 'change shortcut' (previously directly RMB on menu items) to a context-menu item, and added Remove Shortcut and Add Shortcut. This is all available now in a RMB context menu for operator buttons and menu entries.
* Renamed a bunch of key maps to be consistent with UI names, and human-readable. Since these key map names are now being directly used in the UI for people to find things, they should be understandable and in plain language.
This renaming may break some older saved key map setups - though previously saved .b25.blends should convert over ok. Exported .py files may need some find/replacing - in this commit check the changes in resources.c to see what's changed.
- T was 'Flatten Brush', now Shift+T
- added an option to OBJECT_OT_subdivision_set to set the level relatively (so page up/down works), however RNA lets it set one level higher then the maximum, this seems displays OK in the 3D view so not sure whats going on here (as if there is always an extra hidden multires level).
- ToolSettings had its id.data set to NULL when taken directly from the context (causing a crash in cases)
- menu for changing vert/edge/face selection now a python menu, removed operator.
- wm.context_set_value(), would really prefer not to have this since it evaluates the value as a python expression however there are no ways to define arrays in PyOperators
- Add "Get Result" button after a job has been sent (this calls Animate and fetches the results back as render result buffers)
- Rendering (animate or single frame) without an active job was broken. Note that this launches a new job for each frame (it's impossible in a render engine to know if an animation is being rendered or a single frame only).
- Patch by Olivier Amrein (prettying the web interface with css, fixing some notification bugs)
- More error checks on the slave (better behavior when job is canceled)
- Client: when using "Animate on Network" and canceling render midway, also cancel job. Use Send Job and Animate if you want a real background job.
Mostly the same as the recently added editmode tool with some extras.
* Options to disable filling in the rim between inner and outer surface, since its faster not to detect this in cases where its not needed.
* Option to disable high quality normal calculation, mostly noticable when operating on building walls, not needed for cloth or more organic shapes.
* Option to disable 'even thickness', again, not needed in some cases.
Also options for creasing inner/outer and rim edges, need this for makign Sintels cloths solid since zero crease looks far too soft.
note:
* UVs and VCols etc are copied to the new skin however rim faces dont get the UVs or vcols set from the faces they are created from yet.
* Normals are assumed to be pointing outwards
* used patch from Uncle Entity as a template since it added the DNA and RNA entries but the actual modifier from the patch wasnt used.
Takes into account the hierarchical structures of keymaps as well as wildcards (KM_ANY) in event definitions, user remaps (emulate numpad, action/select mouse buttons, ...) and event values that overlap (click, press and release)
For now, doesn't do anything other than print conflicts in the console.
As a result, I cleaned up a lot of keymaps that had double definitions, moved some keymap items in more appropriate places, fixed wrong definitions and removed kmi that were added for testing a long long time ago.
Out of all the remaining conflicts, after removing obvious non-issues, here's what remains: http://www.pasteall.org/9898
New unique ID per keymap item (unique inside their keymap) for default and configuration keymaps.
This allows restoring a single user defined kmi to its previous (default or config) values instead of having to restore the whole keymap.
The restore item button is disabled for kmi added by the users (they don't have an ID).
Also fixes a bug in the rna function for add keymap item (parameter order was incorrect, messing adding back saved configurations).
