This simply adds a third "translation type" (in addition to iface and tip), "new data", with relevant user settings flag and helper funcs/macros (and py api).
Currently implemented name translation when adding new objects, as well as modifiers and constraints, will add the others (cd layers, scenes, perhaps nodes [though I think they do not need this], etc.) later.
Without this, bezier curves at 12 resolution are very high detail for many tasks when converted from freehand strokes.
so add the option to convert 1:1 grease pencil points to curve polygons.
also add use_handles option to curve conversion which is used when converting beziers to poly lines.
besides performance in some cases.
* DAG_scene_sort is now removed and replaced by DAG_relations_tag_update in
most cases. This will clear the dependency graph, and only rebuild it right
before it's needed again when the scene is re-evaluated.
This is done because DAG_scene_sort is slow when called many times from
python operators. Further the scene argument is not needed because most
operations can potentially affect more than the current scene.
* DAG_scene_relations_update will now rebuild the dependency graph if it's not
there yet, and DAG_scene_relations_rebuild will force a rebuild for the rare
cases that need it.
* Remove various places where ob->recalc was set manually. This should go
through DAG_id_tag_update() in nearly all cases instead since this is now
a fast operation. Also removed DAG_ids_flush_update that goes along with
such manual tagging of ob->recalc.
(which in fact wasn't mapped to ctrl), it would add in a non printable
character '1' / ascii-SOH, traced back to original commit and theres no
comments about this or mentions as to what its supposed to do).
Old fixes, since 2009 and before! Related to Curve object editmode:
- normals are not being drawn for hidden curves anymore
- even worse: Blender also didn't hide the extrusions or bevels for hidden curves
- outside edit mode, it shows all (as for all other modes)
- (de)select-all now works when 1st (or any) handle was hidden.
Windows systems: text editor, text object, doesn't allow to input the standard
set of ALT+key characters (the ones coming from the OS).
- Reverted fix january 2012 - that meant to use text object ALT+keys
- Removed old (90ies) feature for hardcoded special characters in Text object.
(OS delivers this now)
Will wait for confirmation by windows compiler :)
- Rename 'mesh.select_nth' operator menu item 'Every N Number of Verts' to 'Checker Deselect',
since its not just de-selecting verts (works on edges and faces too) and the term 'checker' gives a better description of the result.
- Rename 'mesh.select_by_number_vertices' to 'mesh.select_face_by_sides', since this is a face selection tool, which wasnt obvious from its name.
also remove dissolve by type menu since the option has been removed from the operator and was giving an error.
- Added versioning for reading old files with logic saved
- Added two more 'alt backspace' options, for copyright and registered trademark.
(also 'tm' but it's not in our default font)
3D text object editing, ALT+Backspace trick is back to construct special characters.
Like: O , Alt+Backspace , / creates an O with a / in it.
It also makes plus-minus, unequal, copyright, 1/2, 3/4. etc. Easy method you
never forget after using once!
Got broken with adding UTF support a year ago.
- define array sizes for functions that take vectors.
- quiet some -Wshadow warnings.
- some copy/paste error in readfile.c made it set the same particle recalc flag twice.
Made it so meshes, curves, surfaces and metaballs are scaling to a grid cell size,
which makes them behave consistently now.
There're still issues to be resolved still:
- Lattice is not scaled to grid cell size yet, it uses slightly different add
function which makes scaling a bit tricky and hacky. Would prefer to do a
bit bigger refactor here, so it's a TODO for now.
- Cameras, speakers and other helpers are not scaling. They don't have data
on which scale could be applied and perhaps it should be some kind of draw
scale. Also would consider it's a TODO for now.
* Get rid of ED_object_add_generic_invoke() and all invoke callbacks using it, it was doing nothing exec() callbacks would not do. In fact, its only action (setting part of common add ops properties, like loc, layers, etc.) was needed too by direct exec call, so it was done twice in case of using invoke()!
* Replace custom invoke code for metaballs by WM_menu_invoke helper (as already used by lamps).
* Add a new OBJECT_OT_empty_add op, to allow direct addition of empties of a given drawtype.
* And some general code cleanup (like trailing spaces, empty lines, ...).
Did quite a bunch of tests/verifications, but obviously could not tackle all possible scenarios... Anyway, if any, bugs should arize quite quickly (but I don’t expect any! :p ).
