Rotate with two-finger trackpad swipes should follow same principle as
for panning. This is first commit - for clarity.
Remaining issue is that for each system preset (in your OS) blender should
work as you expect too... pan, rotate and zoom gestures might need
each an own direction preset. Might be also messy, but then things can at
least work for everyone. Thinking it over and testing more now.
This commit adds a support of saving 16bit PNG files.
Alpha for such files would be premultiplied, would be corrected
with an upcoming alpha premul cleanup (it's not the only format
which will output 16bit image with premul alpha).
Disconnected bones can be translated in pose mode but this translation
cannot be applied to the iTaSC representation of the armature because
there is no joint associated with it. As a result, moving disconnected
bones had no effect. The bug fix is in two parts:
1) manual or rna change in the armature pose will cause automatic
rebuilding of the iTaSC scene
2) the iTaSC scene is now built from the current pose instead of
armature rest pose
from Patrick Boelens (senshi). with modifications to split it into its own function.
also added C style multi-line comment support /* ... */
I've left out the part of this patch that sets the language in the space, since I think this might be better stored in the text block.
For now it simply uses OSL syntax highlighting when the extension is '.osl'.
Example is for physics like Cloth or Hair Dynamics that start on a shaky state for a few frames until they settle (for say baking subtle grass or hair movement).

User preference "Rotate around selection" now works for all input operators.
(Didnt for new default)
Note: the default will only rotate around selection, zooms remain to view center.
Our view pivot methods are not well definied at all...
- UV Image editor and other 2d views didn't zoom for CTRL+swipe yet.
(2 finger trackpad, 1 finger mighty mouse)
- Switched defaults for 3D window swiping...
- default rotate view
- SHIFT for translate
- CTRL for zooms
This makes all editors use 'swipe' like 'middle mouse', and not
like scrollwheel (as in releases).
This is nice for consistancy, but it still feels a bit weird...
Of course users can config this in keymaps. We need a sensible
default though, and to make a 2D input input device behave like
middle mouse seeems more sensible than like a 1D wheel...
Proposal therefore for defaults:
- 1D scrollwheels: zoom in 3d, zoom in 2d, but scroll for list views.
- 2D trackpads: pan for all 2d views, rotate for 3D
I'll check with frequent trackpad users about this and we can freeze it
before release. Give it a try :)
In 2.64, input for using an NDOF device included all 6 DOFs - including panning.
That makes using it for many people (including beginners like me) too hard, you
very quickly lose the 3d view rotation pivot, as if you are in free fly mode.
Fredrik provided an updated patch, which restores the 2.63 method to only
dolly and rotate by default. The new "all dof" operator is hidden in the keymaps
behind modifier keys SHIFT + CTRL. Users can set this in their configs of course.
As usual, we should be careful changing accepted defaults, and provide new
options as additional choice only.
A useful todo is to make user preference "around selection" work well.
Will check on this now too.
Patch [#33445] - Experimental Cycles Hair Rendering (CPU only)
This patch allows hair data to be exported to cycles and introduces a new line segment primitive to render with.
The UI appears under the particle tab and there is a new hair info node available.
It is only available under the experimental feature set and for cpu rendering.
Add asserts when CTX_data_pointer_get/CTX_data_collection_get are incorrectly used.
disable context inspection for now, Will enable again when its working properly.
It introduces a new (py-extendable and registrable) RNA type, UIList (roughly similar to Panel one), which currently contains only "standard" list's scroll pos and size (but may be expended to include e.g. some filtering data, etc.). This now makes lists completely independent from Panels!
This UIList has a draw_item callback which allows to customize items' drawing from python, that all addons can now use. Incidentally, this also greatly simplifies the C code of this widget, as we do not code any "special case" here anymore!
To make all this work, other changes were also necessary:
* Now all buttons (uiBut struct) have a 'custom_data' void pointer, used currently to store the uiList struct associated with a given uiLayoutListBox.
* DynamicPaintSurface now exposes a new bool, use_color_preview (readonly), saying whether that surface has some 3D view preview data or not.
* UILayout class has now four new (static) functions, to get the actual icon of any RNA object (important e.g. with materials or textures), and to get an enum item's UI name, description and icon.
* UILayout's label() func now takes an optional 'icon_value' integer parameter, which if not zero will override the 'icon' one (mandatory to use "custom" icons as generated for material/texture/... previews).
Note: not sure whether we should add that one to all UILayout's prop funcs?
Note: will update addons using template list asap.
