* Fixed mixdown volume being int instead of float
* Fixed audio muting for sequencer not working
* Added 3D listener settings with RNA (not working in GE yet)
* Copy Rotation constraint "should" work ok for custom rotation orders now. It now converts both rotations to the form used by the owner. So far, this doesn't seem to have broken any of the test rigs in my test-suite, though new specimens for the hall of flakiness are always welcome.
* Fixed many RNA wrapping bugs for Armature data.
- Fixed a few wrong tooltips
- Made proper refreshes for restpose/posed, etc.
* Started converting special quaternion interpolation for Pose Sliding tools (push/relax/breakdown), though this doesn't seem to be working correctly yet.
-->> Help to get these working right is welcome :)
Added the new pose tools in the toolbar.
Changed a few armature values to enums.
Brecht: The Heads/Tails enum seems to also enable armature.draw_axis, and the paths_type enum affects armature.draw_names
* Breakdown tool for Poses (Shift-E in PoseMode) now works. Now this works as a modal operator when invoked, with the horizontal movement of the mouse (left to right) corresponding the placement of the breakdown relative to the endpoint keyframes.
* Moving bones between armature layers in Edit Mode didn't work (wrong variable name used)
* Fixed several notifier-related bugs regarding editing armature settings and the 3d-view not refreshing
* Duplicating bones preserves the rotation mode
* Animation Data for Nodes is now show in Datablocks viewer (i.e. AnimData for NodeTrees has now been wrapped)
* VecLerp3f and Vec2Lerp3f - interpolate 3 2d/3d vectors from 3 weights
* AngleToLength(angle) - useful for making even width shell/walls based on the angles of the surrounding geometry from each point. (same method used in 2.4x python solidify script).
also quiet some warnings.
- remove falloff setting now the curve is used.
- bugfix for airbrush & tablet, with no movement it would assume 1.0 pressure.
- rna, use the use_* prefix for brush options.
New stuff
- Bending springs for hair dynamics.
Code cleanup & optimization
- Disabled reactor particles temporarily for cleanup, it's a clumsy system that will be replaced with something better.
- Removed child seams, something better will come here too :)
- Normal particle drawing data is now saved between redraws if the particles don't move between redraws.
* For example rotating the 3d view is now realtime even with 1M particles.
- Many random values for particles now come from a lookup table making things much faster.
- Most accessed small point cache functions are now much faster as macros.
- Lot's of general code cleanup.
- Nothing big should have changed so if something doesn't work like it used to it's probably just a typo somewhere :)
Note sure what to do with this one, and personally think
we should avoid using macros for this kind of thing:
V_GROW(edges);
source/blender/editors/mesh/loopcut.c:232: warning: value computed is not used
Added a utility function to check which transforms for an object or bone are animated, returning these as bitflags and/or optionally retrieving the relevant F-Curves too. Beware that this method may not be working correctly yet, but it shouldn't hurt anyone in the meantime :)
Also, split RNA-path building function up into a version which only creates the path up to the given struct, with the other parts being added later.
* The image panels in the image editor and texture buttons
should be more complete now, with working new/open,
refreshes, and using the layout engine.
* Paint panels in image editor are now consistent with the
ones in the 3d view toolbar.
* Curves panel also uses layout engine, and doesn't look
squashed anymore.
* Node buttons can now use the layout engine. a few simple
ones are converted. We'll keep this code in C for now,
python wouldn't help much here.
* For node buttons not using the layout engine, manually
computing the button height is not longer needed.
* Node inputs are still not RNA wrapped, would be good to
have these available as well for keying, but makesrna does
not have access to the bNodeTypes.
* Fix problem with curve mapping / color ramps not updating
things like previews propertly. Now it uses the RNA update
of the pointer from the material/texture/.. so each of those
can define their own update, but still share the RNA struct.
* Code for these templates is now in interface_templates.c
* Fix exception for "axis" property, now it always shows normal
widget with the PROP_DIRECTION subtype.
* Remove context from uiBlockLayoutResolve, no longer needed.
* PROP_NEVER_NULL is now a flag instead of a subtype.
* It works for function parameters too now, so setting
this flag can help avoid NULL checks in the function.
* Renamed LocalLamp to PointLamp, making it consistent
with the UI name.
* Set icons for the different lamp struct types.
- last commit, missed include for rna_object_api.c & bad args to find_basis_mball
- use enum for GHOST tablet type None/Stylus/Eraser, had duplicate definition for these in C. Only tested X11, may need to cast to an int for other OS's.
- povray converts curves to meshes on export, (metaballs don't need meshing).
- use 'extend' bool rather then 'seltype' enum for object_select operators for consistency.
writes all operators (including PyOperators) and their default values into a textblock.
Useful for an overview and checking consistancy.
eg. http://www.pasteall.org/7918/python
added rna functions text.clear() and text.write(str)
- updated python api to check for array types rather then the length since a variable length array can be 1 or 0 length.
- python docgen added .0 to the end of floats which messed up values like 1e-05
*Changed Sculpt Modes Flip Direction to an enum so that you can explicitly choose Add or Subtract.
*Expanded the sculpt tool list. I realize Nicolas has a longer term plan for the brush tools, but at least now it's useable again.
* Auto-keyframing for Paste Poses and PoseLib works again. Unfortunately, it doesn't take into account whether the transforms were changed or not...
* 'Stick to View' setting for Grease Pencil has now been inverted, since the old order was confusing.
* Loading newly saved files (where linked-libs were used) crashed.
However, libraries still don't get loaded correctly yet for some reason...
* Pointer layout-items now draw without their UI text if their name is set to "" (i.e. text=""), making the ones with icons appear normal. This is kindof a hack, since it would be better to expose icon_only, but this way is less work.
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.
- use_radius option, off by default for 2.4x files, on by default on new curves.
- curve deform modifiers (think tentacles)
- follow path (parent mode and constraint)
- curve guides
- added back Alt+S to scale point radius
- Mat3Scale and Mat4Scale arithb.c functions to make a new uniform scale matrix.
- TODO, effectors, looks like they have no way to scale from the radius yet.
* Added Transform Locks panel. The layout for rotation I'm not satisfied with yet, though it is the best alternative so far.
* Rotations can now be locked per-component for quats/axis-angle instead of going through eulers. This is currently enabled by the checkbox for the 'label' of the Lock Rotation column.
- The naming of the property in RNA + the way this is presented in the UI can get some work done.
- The setting for the 'w' component for quats/axis-angle is currently a separate flag in RNA, since I can't figure out how to lump this in under the 'lock_rotation' property instead (i.e. getting that to be either 3 or 4 components, depending on whether per-component locking is enabled).
- Editing values directly should not be possible when these locks are set...
* Fixed some tools which made use of this
* Added a few new methods for axis-angle conversions, and used these instead of manually performing those steps elsewhere
* Axis-angles to other representations now get their axes normalised to make sure that odd scaling doesn't occur.
* Made a few more tools work with axis-angles properly
* added new twist method - "Tangent", suggested by Martin.
the nice thing about this is its stable no matter how you rotate the data, rotation is local to each segment.
* added smooth option that smooths the twisting (before applying user twist), to workaround Z-Up and Tangent's ugly curve twisting. Id prefer not to have this however it makes tangent much nicer. Possibly tangent can be improved some other way and this can be removed.
A smooth value of 1.0 will iterate over and smooth the twisting by the resolution value of the spline.
* Minimum-Twist method now corrects for cyclic twist by taking the roll difference between first and last, then increasingly counter rotate each segment over the entire curve. Previously it calculated from both directions and blended them.
details
* BevPoints use quats rather then 3x3 matrix.
* added BevPoint direction "dir" and tangent "tan" used only for 3D curves.
* don't calculate BevPoint->cosa, BevPoint->sina for 3D curves.
* split bevel tilt calculation into functions.
* nurbs curves currently don't generate tangents and wont work with tangent twist method.
* some of the use of quats should be optimized.
* smoothing is not animation safe, the higher the smoothing the higher the likelyhood of flipping.
The support for this is really quite hacky, and I might disable this later if we cannot get some parts to work nicely.
Some notes:
* This is currently stored in the same variable that quaternions are stored in, since they both have 4 components. However, in RNA, I've added 2 properties specially for this.
* There are some shearing issues using certain axes - i.e. (1,1,0) - that will need to be checked on.
* Transform code is really quite temporary for this. Just a quick demo of what can be done...
* Mesh Deform modifier now correctly shows Bind/Unbind buttons. Previously, only Bind got shown...
* Selecting keyframes in the Graph Editor using Border Select now allows the keyframes to be editable afterwards. Previously, the curves weren't getting selected afterwards, therefore, the poll operators would skip those curves.
