This attribute allows to open a blend file as an alternative
start-up file. The attribute is only available from python.
This is an example call:
bpy.ops.wm.read_homefile(filepath='path/to/a/file.blend')
This patch also changes readfile.c to ensure that unintentionally
stored cursor states are not imported from the loaded file.
* Update readme for 2.70 (content + links), also updates for new tracker/git.
* Fix some links to the new blender.org website
* Release logs now point directly to the wiki, I don't see a reason to point to the website, just to redirect to the wiki after all.
Summary:
Old idea with changes since previous release tag
didn't work good enough. In most of the cases tag
was done in a branch hence not actually reachable
from the master branch.
Now change since release is gone, and date of
the latest commit is used instead.
The date is displayed in format YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm
in the splash.
New bpy.app fields:
- build_commit_timestamp is an unix timestamp of
the commit blender was build from.
- build_commit_date is a date of that commit.
- build_commit_time is a time of that commit.

Differential Revision: http://developer.blender.org/D5
Circle select was missing from node editor, and C key was assigned to now defunct "show cyclic dependencies". This patch remaps the key and adds circle select operator.
Functions to check intersection between rctf/rcti and a circle were also added to rct.c for code cleanliness and consistency.
- Use commit number since last annotated tag as a
revision number replacement. It'll eb followed
by 'M' symbol if there're local modification in
the source tree.
- Commit short SHA1 is included. Helps getting
information about commit used to build blender
with much faster.
- If build is not done from master branch, this also
will be noticed in the splash screen.
This commit also replaces revision stored in the
files with git-specific fields (change and hash).
This is kind of breaks compatibility, meaning
files which were saved before this change wouldn't
display any information about which revision they
were saved with. When we'll finally switch to git,
we'll see proper hash and change number since
previous release in the files, for until then
svn version will be used as a change number and
hash will be empty.
Not a huge deal, since this field was only used
by developers to help torubleshooting things and
isn't needed for blender itself.
Some additional tweaks are probably needed :)
When printing operator reports, ommit unset properties.
This is needed because in some cases operators check if a value is set or not, so filling in default arguments may change behavior.
curves and metaballs now behave the same as meshes wrt grid scaling.
remove WM_operator_view3d_distance_invoke(), and replace with a function called from exec which initializes defaults, this way operators can have their own invoke functions.
when running viewport operations with exec() rather then invoke(), perform the action immediately rather then using smoothview.
makes viewport operations usable from python scripts.
- add missing headers from cmake (own omission)
- quiet rna_test.c unused define warnings.
- minor style edits
- spelling corrections and ignore all uppercase words with spell checking script.
rotation of the brush mask texture.
Unfortunately secondary path does not work here because we do not have a
permanent switch to choose between primary-secondary brush texture. Use
operator property instead.
- script execution is off by default
- if a blend file attempts to execute a script
this shows a message in the header with the action
that was suppressed (script/driver/game-autostart) and 2 buttons to either reload the file trusted, or to ignore the message.
- the file selector will always default to use the trust setting in the user preferences,
but reloading an open file will keep using the current setting (whatever was set before or set on the command-line).
- added SCons setting WITH_BF_PYTHON_SECURITY, this sets the default state for the user prefereces not to trust blend files on load.
... this option was in CMake before, but always off, now its enabled by default for SCons and CMake, and forced on in CMake for now.
* Editing number of segments for particle hair did not update the viewport.
* Hidden particles were confusing, the paths were drawn but without the points.
Now it draws the path faded to indicate that they are hidden/locked.
* Select tips/roots operators now have options to select/deselect/toggle/invert.
down, this time by the operator properties getting converted to a string for
display in the info window.
With 1000+ stroke points this can get slow, and takes up too much space anyway,
so now it's (somewhat arbitrarily) limited to printing only 10 points.
To achieve this, some code (callbacks and search button creation) was moved from wm_operators.c to interface/interface.c, and a new UI function was added, uiDefSearchButO_ptr.
Note: This new code uses the fact that uiButHandleFunc callbacks get executed before operator when one of its arg is the button itself!
Many thanks to Campbell who helped me a lot with this patch!
Cleanup: also removed two unused pointers from uiBut struct.
The feature "Keep Session" was also loading that session when you double-click
on a .blend to open it, or when a .blend file was on commandline.
Moved this feature to the main() in creator.c, so it can check on it properly, skipping the
kept session when a file was loaded.
