* Hair combing now uses substeps to apply the combing when the mouse movement exceeds 0.2 of the brush radius.
* This could make combing a bit slower on fast mouse movements, but the increase in combing quality is definitely worth it.
- fix: user pref, window title was reset to 'Blender' on tab usage
- Undo history menu back:
- name "Undo History"
- hotkey alt+ctrl+z (alt+apple+z for mac)
- works like 2.4x, only for global undo, editmode and particle edit.
- Menu scroll
- for small windows or screens, popup menus now allow to display
all items, using internal scrolling
- works with a timer, scrolling 10 items per second when mouse
is over the top or bottom arrow
- if menu is too big to display, it now draws to top or bottom,
based on largest available space.
- also works for hotkey driven pop up menus.
- User pref "DPI" follows widget/layout size
- widgets & headers now become bigger and smaller, to match
'dpi' font sizes. Works well to match UI to monitor size.
- note that icons can get fuzzy, we need better mipmaps for it
some functions had vague names, I even ended up re-writing some of these functions by accident!
also added doxy comments.
* ED_view3d_win_to_3d (was window_to_3d)
* ED_view3d_win_to_delta (was window_to_3d_delta)
* ED_view3d_win_to_vector (was window_to_3d_vector / viewvector)
* ED_view3d_win_to_segment_clip (was viewline)
* ED_view3d_win_to_ray (was viewray)
mouse coords would with cont. grab would wrap at short.
use mouse coords as int rather then short.
this problem still happens on linux because of XTranslateCoordinates
Patch to make the radial control more generic with RNA. Patch was
reviewed here: http://codereview.appspot.com/4280080/
Prior to this update, the radial control code in trunk had generic
parts of the radial control implemented as an incomplete operator
within WM. Then each different user of the radial control had to
implement a separate operator to actually pass in specific brush data
-- e.g. sculpt's brush size, vpaint's brush size, etc.
This patch removes all the extra operators and makes the WM operator
do everything. It now takes several RNA path strings as its properties
-- the only required property is data_path, which specifies the data
to be modified by the radial control. The other paths affect display
in various ways, e.g. rotation, color, etc.
In addition to decreasing some duplicate paint brush code, these
updates make it pretty easy to enable radial control for other
purposes (and it can be set up entirely though python or keymaps, no
extra C code needed.)
* The old collisions code detected particle collisions by calculating the
collision times analytically from the collision mesh faces. This was
pretty accurate, but didn't support rotating/deforming faces at all, as
the equations for these quickly become quite nasty.
* The new code uses a simple "distance to plane/edge/vert" function and
iterates this with the Newton-Rhapson method to find the closest particle
distance during a simulation step.
* The advantage in this is that the collision object can now move, rotate,
scale or even deform freely and collisions are still detected reliably.
* For some extreme movements the calculation errors could stack up so much
that the detection fails, but this can be easily fixed by increasing the
particle size or simulation substeps.
* As a side note the algorithm doesn't really do point particles anymore,
but uses a very small radius as the particle size when "size deflect" isn't
selected.
* I've also updated the collision response code a bit, so now the particles
shouldn't leak even from tight corners.
All in all the collisions code is now much cleaner and more robust than before!
The tool-redo depends on a working undo system, so it can rewind
a step and then redo operator with new settings. When a user
disables undo, this won't work.
Now the properties for redo operator (toolbar, F6) will grey out
when a redo isn't possible.
* I've getting bad feelings about the point cache index_array for a while (cause for this bug too), so from now on memory cache uses a simple binary search directly on the index data to handle queries to specific data points.
* This is a bit slower than just checking from a dedicated array, but it's much less error prone, uses less memory and makes the code more readable too, so it's not a tough choice.
* Pointcache code was quite ugly looking and complicated, so here are mostly just cosmetic adjustments, but some improved logic also.
* Slight cleanup of pointcache ui too.
* Shouldn't have any functional changes what so ever, so poke me right away if something seems off.
only tags the ID and does the actual flush/update delayed, before the next
redraw. For objects the update was already delayed, just flushing wasn't
yet.
This should help performance in python and animation editors, by making
calls to RNA property update quicker. Still need to add calls in a few
places where this was previously avoided due to bad performance.
- pep8 script was giving an error on non utf8 scons source files.
- use PyList_SET_ITEM macro when list type is ensured.
- all mathutils types use subtypes to create new types when available.
- use defines MAT3_UNITY, MAT4_UNITY to initialize unit matrices.
- glReadPixels() was running to get the depth on each pixel, this works fine one some cards but was locking up on OSX.
- Replace glReadPixels() call with a single call to view3d_update_depths() right after view3d_validate_backbuf(), so the depths are only read once.
- Unrelated to the changes above, but should improve performance: view3d_validate_backbuf() was being called on every redraw while combing, now only call once when combing starts.
Also use const char in many other parts of blenders code.
Currently this gives warnings for setting operator id, label and description since these are an exception and allocated beforehand.
Added extend option to lasso.
also...
- selecting bones wasn't checking their layer of if they were hidden in a number of places.
- fixed memory leak.
small unrealed changes
- added PBONE_VISIBLE macro
- renamed functions used for paint selectoin from *_tface to paintface_*. sine they no longer have anything todo with tface's.
- removed scanfill include from BLI_blenlib.h, this is only used in very few places and quite specific.
Noticed lasso select is broken for metaballs and face mask mode but this has been the case for a while, will look into it next.
