Added two user preferences for filebrowser:
1. Hide Recent Locations
Requested by Kernon Dillon. Reason: People doing video tutorials might not want to expose the name of other projects they are working on.
2. Open Filebrowser in thumbnail view for images and movies
Requested by Sebastian König at the Blender Conference. Reason: In the past (and most likely still) some corrupt images or movies could crash the filebrowser when generating thumbnails. (crashes in ffmpeg, libtiff, libjpg). While many of those were solved, artists in a production environment might want to use this setting to prevent any crashes.
NOTE: the second setting should probably be set next time we create a new default startup.blend. Until then users need to switch this on manually in the User Preferences.
This runs after changing a property and allows correcting incompatible options.
Returning True will redraw the UI.
Currently this is used for setting the write extension when saving files, so changing the image format also corrects the extension.
The same is accessible from python where its used when saving SVG/EPS/PNG files.
This fixes: [#23828] obj export problems, [#23760] Exporting OBJ and filetype ending
also fixed document submission operator.
Now the filename in the file selector is the one used for writing this means we remove the "Save Over" popup which could be overlooked too easily.
Instead display the filename field with red tint, and a note in the tooltip.
path -> filepath (for rna and operators, as agreed on with elubie)
path -> data_path (for windowmanager context functions, this was alredy used in many places)
C functions and python used different argument order, this relied on mapping non-keyword arguments to 'REQUIRED' arguments but meant that you could not have an optional, non-keyword argument.
next commit will make order of arguments consistant (currently only changed order that rna wrapped).
(commit 27674 and 27683 by Campbell from render25 branch)
Only source/blender/editors/ dir, should not give errors on different platforms
Only removing: UI_*.h, ED_*.h, WM_*.h, DNA_*.h, IMB_*.h, RNA_*.h, PIL_*.h
Keymaps are now saveable and configurable from the user preferences, note
that editing one item in a keymap means the whole keymap is now defined by
the user and will not be updated by Blender, an option for syncing might be
added later. The outliner interface is still there, but I will probably
remove it.
There's actually 3 levels now:
* Default builtin key configuration.
* Key configuration loaded from .py file, for configs like Blender 2.4x
or other 3D applications.
* Keymaps edited by the user and saved in .B.blend. These can be saved
to .py files as well to make creating distributable configurations
easier.
Also, user preferences sections were reorganized a bit, now there is:
Interface, Editing, Input, Files and System.
Implementation notes:
* wmKeyConfig was added which represents a key configuration containing
keymaps.
* wmKeymapItem was renamed to wmKeyMapItem for consistency with wmKeyMap.
* Modal maps are not wrapped yet.
* User preferences DNA file reading did not support newdataadr() yet,
added this now for reading keymaps.
* Key configuration related settings are now RNA wrapped.
* is_property_set and is_property_hidden python methods were added.
Appending and Linking
* Linking Operator, invokes filebrowser for Append/Link
* Separated the append/link function into three parts:
** BLO_library_append_begin finds main for appending
** BLO_library_append_named_part appends one Object,Group, Material, ...
** BLO_library_append_end actually reads and expands the libraries
NOTE 1:
I also changed the returned properties for the filebrowser operators to the following convention:
"path" - the full path to a file or directory, means what is in directory + filename buttons in filebrowser
"directory" - the content of the directory button in filebrowser
"filename" - the content of the filename button in filebrowser
Usually only path should be required, but in some cases it might be more convenient to retrieve the parts separately.
Ton, Brecht: If you have time to take a look, let me know if anything needs to be fixed.
This is problematic for a few reasons...
* I'd often save a blendfile only so it would appier in the open recent menu.
* Saving files (when you dont need to) makes access times less useful.
* binary diff's in SVN dont give any useful info. Sometimes I wasnt sure if I actually edited or saves for fast re-opening.
* Testing 2.4x files with animation data in 2.5 can loose info.
* Its not logical and other apps dont work this way.
Also made the recent file list in the file browser display the most recent item first (like the open recent menu).
when passing properties=True as argument.
Other changes:
* uiItemR, uiItemFullR, uiItemFullO now accept a flag argument rather
than multiple different "boolean" arguments, but still exposed as
booleans to python.
* Fix RNA to support setting PROP_RNAPTR for return values.
to show properties.
* One problem is that we currently have 3 different kinds of
property layouts, single column, two column, and single column
with text inside button, probably best to reduce this..
* Last operator panel now shows operator name in the header.
* Fix extrude operator to not include transform properties
anymore, since they are already there now due to macro system.
* Side panels now use list widgets.
* Enabled theme colors for side panel.
* Add button in bookmarks panel.
* Operator panel title now uses operator name.
* For unix, added / to system, and home and desktop to bookmarks.
* For opening fileselect with filter, cleaned up the code a bit,
adding WM_operator_properties_filesel instead of duplicating code.
* Also added filter for all operators calling fileselect, only image
and file open did it before.
* Hide . files by default, and also hide files ending with ~.
* Added back .. (but not .) in the file list, I really missed this.
* File highlight now only happens when you're actually over a file,
instead staying after you move the mouse away.
* Fix some redraw/refresh issues.
New:
* added filter and display to some operator properties. Now file browser opens showing only .blend files and folders on file->open and on image->open changes to image display and only shows images and movies.
Fixes:
* fixed stupid removal of wrong prototype in last commit
* fixed a few warnings
* Weight paint: brush strength was changed to both define weight
and strength, this can't work, made them separate buttons.
* Allow adding particle system as modifier (fix crash).
* 3D view modal ops (zoom ..) could not be ended when invoked
from a button.
* Fix some warnings.
* Fix spelling in particle RNA property.
Monthly cleaning round to make it compile warning free.
Mostly it was const stuff (strings, Context), but also
a couple useful fixes, like wrong use of temp pointers.
Only Mathutils callback struct I left alone... design issue.
* show only name of the last directory for the bookmark
* small fix of projectfile: header BLI_fileops.h was moved
Note: full path should appear in tool tip later, also for renaming bookmarks later on.
* bookmark operators: add and delete bookmark
* first start at menus in file browser: Directory and Bookmarks
* Adding a bookmark via menu or via CTRL+B
* Remove a bookmark with the X button next to it.
* start of filebrowser RNA
* system files, bookmarks, etc. now nicely inside panels to allow collapsing etc.
* filebrowser header now defined in space_filebrowser.py
TODO:
* button type for bookmarks etc. not final yet, at least should get centered still. Suggestions welcome here.
