Also, made the Outliner's horizontal scrollbar work better for keymaps view. It's still using an approximation of the width, but at least you can scroll now.
Example code: http://www.pasteall.org/7332/c.
New API functions: http://www.pasteall.org/7330/c.
Maximum number of dimensions is currently limited to 3, but can be increased arbitrarily if needed.
What this means for ID property access:
* MeshFace.verts - dynamic array, size 3 or 4 depending on MFace.v4
* MeshTextureFace.uv - dynamic, 2-dimensional array, size depends on MFace.v4
* Object.matrix - 2-dimensional array
What this means for functions:
* more intuitive API possibility, for example:
Mesh.add_vertices([(x, y, z), (x, y, z), ...])
Mesh.add_faces([(1, 2, 3), (4, 5, 6), ...])
Python part is not complete yet, e.g. it is possible to:
MeshFace.verts = (1, 2, 3) # even if Mesh.verts is (1, 2, 3, 4) and vice-versa
MeshTextureFace.uv = [(0.0, 0.0)] * 4 # only if a corresponding MFace is a quad
but the following won't work:
MeshTextureFace.uv[3] = (0.0, 0.0) # setting uv[3] modifies MTFace.uv[1][0] instead of MTFace.uv[3]
I hoped for it to resolve the bug of loading sounds with relative paths didn't work, but Main.name isn't set before the sounds are loaded, so the bug resists!
Someone who is into file loading should please fix this!
Finally in 2.5 branch :)
Still things to do, but will continue working in here. I won't bother
repeating the commit messages from the last year or so, however I've
written up some technical docs to help Ton/Brecht/etc review and find
their way around the code:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Broken/VolumeRenderingDev
That above page has some known issues and todos listed, but I'm still
interested in bug reports.

Wrapped the Keying Sets API with RNA Functions so that they can now be called from Py-Scripts. This will ultimately be useful for riggers to create Keying Sets which can get loaded up/created for animators to use after importing their rig.
I've created a demo for this, which can be found at:
http://www.pasteall.org/blend/552
Notes:
- Kazanbas, I've had to create a rna_scene_api.c here to hold some of the relevant functions. Hopefully this won't cause you too much pain when you do your next merge from 2.5 to your branch ;)
- I've noticed that there seem to be a few cases mentioned in the demo which don't totally work yet. I'll commit some fixes for those later.
* F-Modifiers on F-Curves can now taken into account when calculating the extents of actions. This is used when there are some NLA strips and some action with some F-Modifiers is being played back on top of those.
* The toggles in the NLA channels list now respect the width of the list instead of using a hardcoded position. This means that clicking on these toggles when the list is resized works again.
The 'Show Sliders' option for DopeSheet and Graph Editors now works again. When this option is enabled (it is disabled by default), a slider (or combobox) is shown beside the mute/lock toggles for F-Curves. Editing the slider will result in a new keyframe being added on the current frame.
So, for all the (ex)-Maya animators out there, you can now animate in a channelbox-like way. :)
Also in this commit:
* Fixed some warnings in modifier.c from previous commits there
* Fixed some refresh problems with DopeSheet channel list (which were only obvious after adding back the sliders)
* Removed the old/unrestored and nasty slider code used in the past by the Action Editor only.
Fixed some typos made in previous commit. Hook Modifier should now work correctly again (and also for newly added Hook relationships)
Notes:
* To add a hook, you currently need to perform the following steps
1) add modifier from menu (no operator in EditMode)
2) specify the object (and/or bone to use as the hook target)
3a) in EditMode, select the vertices you wish to be affected by the hook, and press 'Assign'
3b) alternatively, fill in the vertex-group field for the Vertex Group which contains the vertices to be affected
4) press 'Reset' (to make sure hook will behave correctly)
5) optionally, also press 'Recenter' if the hook position isn't right...
* BUG ALERT (Brecht/Ton): it is impossible to clear the vertexgroup/bone fields once you have assigned some value. Doing backspace+enter (or any other variation) will always result in the first item in the search menu being used.
* Fixed doing a simple subdivide, rather than Catmull-Clark. Note that the first subdivision will still appear to be CC rather than simple, this is a bug we just have to live with for now.
Made Hook Modifier be able to use bone targets. However, I haven't been able to verify that everything will work perfectly, since just creating a new Hook Modifier and assigning targets doesn't set hmd->indexar correctly.
* Popup menus now remember the last clicked item again.
* Modifier and File Format menus are now organized in multiple
columns with categories.
* Hook, explode, uv project modifiers have all their buttons
again with the relevant operators implemented.
* Modifiers that can't be added by the user, or don't work on
curves for example, are not in the menu anymore.
* Fix search menu overlapping buttons when near the bottom of
the screen.
* Fix uv layers search menu not working in some modifiers.
* Cleanup popup menu code a bit, layout engine is used in more
cases now instead of ugly position calculation code.
I rename the original makefile of lzo (Makefile.bak) and a new one.
Also four new option for user-def.mk:
WITH_LZO, default true
WITH_LZMA, default true
NAN_LZO, default extern/lzo
NAN_LZMA, default extern/lzma
It's easy add support for system libs (using lzo and lzma from OS) but I don't
know if it have much sense.
Note that I can't test the "unsigned char" buffer because the OGL animation
is not working (right ?), but is the same code that for float also the new
Makefile work fine here (Linux), but maybe need some tweak on other OS.
* Converted vertex paint to use the new stroke system. Now supports the same smooth stroke and stroke spacing as sculpt mode.
* Refactored the paint cursor a bit, just sculpt for now but other modes soon.
* A couple warning fixes
* cache for low res (deactivating high res for now)
* new way of view3d rendering of smoke (no longer 3 axes) -using 3dtexture now (introduced into gpu/intern)
* introducing LZO and LZMA libs into extern (makefiles missing for now)
* reducing memory usage after simulating for the frame ended (freeing temporary buffers)
* splitting smoke into 2 modifier for the cache-sake (it cannot handle more than 1 cache on the same modifier-index)
* no color on gui anymore
* fixing non-power-of-2 resolutions (hopefully)
* fixing select-deselect of domain drawing bug
* fixing drawobject.c coding style (making Ton happy) ;-)
HINT #1: If scons doesn't work -> cmakefiles are up-to-date, couldn't test scons (but i tried to mantain them, too)
CODERS HINT #1: we really need a way to disable adding all modifiers through "Add Modifiers" dropdown!
WARNING #1: before applying this commit, deactivate your SMOKE DOMAIN in your old files and save them then. You can open them then savely after that.
WARNING #2: File and cache format of smoke can be changed, this is not final!
Implementation:
* NC_SCENE or NC_OBJECT cause scene->stats to be cleared.
* NC_INFO is sent to tag info headers for redraw.
* In UI scene.statistics() creates scene->stats if it is
NULLd, and then returns the string.
A couple of new functions:
BLF_width_and_height - Merge of BLF_width and BLF_height in one call to avoid freetype2 stuff.
BLF_buffer - Set the buffer, size and number of channel.
BLF_buffer_col - Set the text color (the alpha is not used right now).
BLF_draw_buffer - Draw the text in the current buffer.
Also tweak a little the boundbox and draw function to avoid access the freetype2 and use the cache info.
By default the font size is 12, the UI still need work to allow change the font and size.
* Added Shading and Performance panels in the scene buttons,
containing the options previously in the 2.4x game menu.
* Added show framerate/debug/physics/warnings back in game menu.
* Moved these settings from G.fileflags to scene GameData.
* Enabled Display Lists by default.
* Some other small game scene button tweaks.
* WITH_GAMEENGINE and WITH_BULLET were being added to the compiler flags, only define in areas that use them.
* removed C++ unix warnings by adding -Wno-invalid-offsetof -Wno-sign-compare. the py api uses invalid offsets for attributes.
* removed C unix -Wnested-externs warning, these are everywhere in blender.
* removed unused BGE python headers
* undefine _XOPEN_SOURCE and _POSIX_C_SOURCE in the BGE, python redefines.
* renamed USE_BULLET in collision.c to WITH_BULLET for consistency
possible from python, but it's still work in progress.
Pointers and collections are restricted to types derived from
IDPropertyGroup (same as for operators), because RNA knows how to
allocate/deallocate those.
Collections have .add() and .remove(number) functions that can be
used. The remove function should be fixed to take an other argument
than a number.
With the IDPropertyGroup restriction, pointers are more like nested
structs. They don't have add(), remove() yet, not sure where to put
them. Currently the pointer / nested struct is automatically allocated
in the get() function, this needs to be fixed, rule is that RNA get()
will not change any data for thread safety.
Also, it is only possible to add properties to structs after they have
been registered, which needs to be improved as well.
Example code:
http://www.pasteall.org/7201/python
* Added UI for brush stroke. Contains for now spacing and smooth stroke
* Removed Sculpt UI for airbrush -- doesn't do anything in sculpt mode
* Improved smooth stroke by using float instead of int precision, so smooth stroke is even smoother now
Delegates now receive a TexParams* instead of float *coords. This gives texture nodes access to dxt, dyt, cfra as well as coords. This fixes the time node and allows nice sampling to be implemented.
