- Extrude Menu not longer restricted by selection mode, only selection totals (will show all possible options for the selection, regardless of selection mode)
- Missing operator descriptions
Ekey: Extrude Region
Based on selection totals:
Extrude region along normal if at least one face selected
Extrude vertex along normal if only one vertex selected (experimental)
Extrude edge on its plane if only one edge selected (experimental)
Extrude with no constraint axis otherwise
Shift-Ekey: Extrude Individual
Based on selection modes and selection totals
Individual Faces if face select and some faces are selected
Individual Edges if edge select and some edges are selected
Individual Vertice otherwise
Alt-Ekey: Extrude Menu (only shows valid options for selection mode and selection totals)
* no longer a modal operator now, that was useful when it was part of
the loopcut macro but is no longer the case, and should have not
affected regular edge ring selection.
* don't fall through to loop select in face mode, that is bad 2.4
behavior, just use alt+rmb if you want to loop select.
* fix error number of cuts error print, missing select mode flush, and
use more accurate notifier.
- Number of multicuts can now be set (only usable for multicut mode)
- Midpoint cutting is now done using shift-k + drag hotkey mapping
These were just minor properties changes, which shouldn't be too much of a hassle for BMesh merging.
Todo for Campbell:
- Make menu context sensitive
- Make menu automatically run the operator if there is only one option
Note: Saved configurations and keymaps with references to "Extrude and Move" operator needs to be updated to either call the menu or one of the new extrude macros.
This is set on keymap item operator properties and macro definition operator properties to make them non-contextual (since the context at definition time is most likely not the same then at execution time, it's better to have all options visible).
This removes some more errors in keymap export and import.
This commit also sanitize some enum item function, making sure they can cope with null context and have usable defaults in that case.
Blender too now! :)
** Drag works as follows:
- drag-able items are defined by the standard interface ui toolkit
- each button can get this feature, via uiButSetDragXXX(but, ...).
There are calls to define drag-able images, ID blocks, RNA paths,
file paths, and so on. By default you drag an icon, exceptionally
an ImBuf
- Drag items are registered centrally in the WM, it allows more drag
items simultaneous too, but not implemented
** Drop works as follows:
- On mouse release, and if drag items exist in the WM, it converts
the mouse event to an EVT_DROP type. This event then gets the full
drag info as customdata
- drop regions are defined with WM_dropbox_add(), similar to keymaps
you can make a "drop map" this way, which become 'drop map handlers'
in the queues.
- next to that the UI kit handles some common button types (like
accepting ID or names) to be catching a drop event too.
- Every "drop box" has two callbacks:
- poll() = check if the event drag data is relevant for this box
- copy() = fill in custom properties in the dropbox to initialize
an operator
- The dropbox handler then calls its standard Operator with its
dropbox properties.
** Currently implemented
Drag items:
- ID icons in browse buttons
- ID icons in context menu of properties region
- ID icons in outliner and rna viewer
- FileBrowser icons
- FileBrowser preview images
Drag-able icons are subtly visualized by making them brighter a bit
on mouse-over. In case the icon is a button or UI element too (most
cases), the drag-able feature will make the item react to
mouse-release instead of mouse-press.
Drop options:
- UI buttons: ID and text buttons (paste name)
- View3d: Object ID drop copies object
- View3d: Material ID drop assigns to object under cursor
- View3d: Image ID drop assigns to object UV texture under cursor
- Sequencer: Path drop will add either Image or Movie strip
- Image window: Path drop will open image
** Drag and drop Notes:
- Dropping into another Blender window (from same application) works
too. I've added code that passes on mousemoves and clicks to other
windows, without activating them though. This does make using multi-window
Blender a bit friendler.
- Dropping a file path to an image, is not the same as dropping an
Image ID... keep this in mind. Sequencer for example wants paths to
be dropped, textures in 3d window wants an Image ID.
- Although drop boxes could be defined via Python, I suggest they're
part of the UI and editor design (= how we want an editor to work), and
not default offered configurable like keymaps.
- At the moment only one item can be dragged at a time. This is for
several reasons.... For one, Blender doesn't have a well defined
uniform way to define "what is selected" (files, outliner items, etc).
Secondly there's potential conflicts on what todo when you drop mixed
drag sets on spots. All undefined stuff... nice for later.
- Example to bypass the above: a collection of images that form a strip,
should be represented in filewindow as a single sequence anyway.
This then will fit well and gets handled neatly by design.
- Another option to check is to allow multiple options per drop... it
could show the operator as a sort of menu, allowing arrow or scrollwheel
to choose. For time being I'd prefer to try to design a singular drop
though, just offer only one drop action per data type on given spots.
- What does work already, but a tad slow, is to use a function that
detects an object (type) under cursor, so a drag item's option can be
further refined (like drop object on object = parent). (disabled)
** More notes
- Added saving for Region layouts (like split points for toolbar)
- Label buttons now handle mouse over
- File list: added full path entry for drop feature.
- Filesel bugfix: wm_operator_exec() got called there and fully handled,
while WM event code tried same. Added new OPERATOR_HANDLED flag for this.
Maybe python needs it too?
- Cocoa: added window move event, so multi-win setups work OK (didnt save).
- Interface_handlers.c: removed win->active
- Severe area copy bug: area handlers were not set to NULL
- Filesel bugfix: next/prev folder list was not copied on area copies
** Leftover todos
- Cocoa windows seem to hang on cases still... needs check
- Cocoa 'draw overlap' swap doesn't work
- Cocoa window loses focus permanently on using Spotlight
(for these reasons, makefile building has Carbon as default atm)
- ListView templates in UI cannot become dragged yet, needs review...
it consists of two overlapping UI elements, preventing handling icon clicks.
- There's already Ghost library code to handle dropping from OS
into Blender window. I've noticed this code is unfinished for Macs, but
seems to be complete for Windows. Needs test... currently, an external
drop event will print in console when succesfully delivered to Blender's WM.
this is too arbitrary and could break if roperty order is changed.
store the property in the operator type that is to be used for menu and enum search func's.
python function for searching operator enums on invoke. (just need dynamic python enums now)
wm.invoke_search_popup(self)
- particle set weight operator (Shift + K) and from the menu.
- mirror vertex groups operator can also flip weight group names.
a number of utility functions for weight groups added
int *get_defgroup_flip_map(struct Object *ob);
void flip_vertexgroup_name (char *name_r, const char *name, int strip_number); // moved from modifier.c
void copy_defvert (struct MDeformVert *dvert_r, const struct MDeformVert *dvert);
void flip_defvert (struct MDeformVert *dvert, int *flip_map);
Select Sharp Edges was conflicting with it, fixed by removing it's shortcut,
- if people use it frequently, they can easy add it back with a RMB click.
The operator was already there and written, just didn't have a hotkey
assigned. Gave it an icky popup menu like object mode parent until we
get a nice non-blocking report viewer.
Reset edge loop data when there are no edge near (it doesn't cut when there's no edge near anyway, so the display was missleading)
Also don't do any display setup when there's nothing to display.
Better solutions could be...
- use a tool to set mirror locations (did a script for this in 2.4x), then run this if locations get messed up..
- find the closest mirror vertex, would be slower
- have a configurable threshold.
is now just used to set the rotation property value during invoke.
This removes some reliance on 3d view info for non-interactive use, and also lets you specify
new object's locations/rotations explicitly when calling from Python.
