An operator Error throws up a menu, a Warning only a flashy header print.
In mesh editmode the menus for simple failures got very annoying, like
"Already a face" for Fkey on a face.
Proposal is to use warning for contextual failures, like:
- wrong selection
- unsupported combination
- wrong modes
And use errors for cases you really need user attention, for example when
issues are invisble or potentially damaging work.
- Memory failures
- Files not found
List can grow in future :) let's test this for mesh now.
I'll tackle this for other ops later after review.
(Also changed: loopcut disabled when editmode shows deformed result)
- made theme colors for mesh edge len & face angle/area display.
- use %g rather then %f for float display, trims unneeded zeros.
- store cached 2d and 3d text color as bytes rather then floats, compare when drawing to avoid setting the context.
- use unsigned char for more color functions, avoids casting to glColorubv().
Bugfix #25280
Image: sequence option was hardcoded to assume "first frame" was always
picture "001". Made it impossible to have a sequence of images starting
with picture like "000"
Note that by allowing to render a first frame as 000 in Blender, things
mess up a bit here. Things work now as follows:
- Start Frame = 1 : Image 001 on frame 1
- Start Frame = 0 : Image 001 on frame 0
- Start Frame =-1 : Image 000 on frame 0 ;)
This is of course the lack of proper control for image sequences.
Definite something to work on; best idea I have now is a new setting
that defines the Image Number to be "first frame". That way you can
map that number on any Blender frame. Or it makes it more confusing? :)
For the doc department: the proper meaning of "Start Frame" now is:
"The blender frame a sequence starts playing, assuming the sequence
starts with image #1"
Tooltop was fixed accordingly
(Also fixed 'remove doubles' to show more precision in toolbar)
only tags the ID and does the actual flush/update delayed, before the next
redraw. For objects the update was already delayed, just flushing wasn't
yet.
This should help performance in python and animation editors, by making
calls to RNA property update quicker. Still need to add calls in a few
places where this was previously avoided due to bad performance.
Added extend option to lasso.
also...
- selecting bones wasn't checking their layer of if they were hidden in a number of places.
- fixed memory leak.
small unrealed changes
- added PBONE_VISIBLE macro
- renamed functions used for paint selectoin from *_tface to paintface_*. sine they no longer have anything todo with tface's.
- removed scanfill include from BLI_blenlib.h, this is only used in very few places and quite specific.
Noticed lasso select is broken for metaballs and face mask mode but this has been the case for a while, will look into it next.
- removed deprecated bitmap arg from IMB_allocImBuf (plugins will need updating).
- mostly tagged UNUSED() since some of these functions look like they may need to have the arguments used later.
patch [#23317] Changed some operators' RNA to accept lengths
by Lorenzo Tozzi (oni_niubbo)
with the minor change to use XYZ subtype rather then LENGTH.
This was the old Ctrl + FKEY in object mode, now it's in
edit mode and is part of the Ctrl + FKEY menu (Faces).
I also assing this to the Ctrl + Alt + FKEY, but Matt please
check this and feel free to change (or tell me and I will change).
Still there is no "reverse" function, but I commit now to finish
in my home.
Spin tool steps property had no softmin/softmax (set to INT_MAX), and without continuous grab on, the number field dragging code would jump up to ridiculously high numbers.
Added a reasonable soft max for spin, and also added some protection to the button dragging code to prevent the drag increments from getting too high.
Probably need to doublecheck other op property softmaxes as well.
* Now it displays the last report from the global list, not just from operators
* Rather than disappearing when a new operator is run, it stays until it times
out or a new report is added
* Fun animated transitions ;)

Now need to investigate report usage with popups. Ideally we can have most
reports non-blocking, so they're less intrusive, only popping up for dire errors.
Problem is many things in Blender right now are marked as RPT_ERROR
when probably RPT_WARNING is more appropriate. Should probably keep
RPT_ERROR for things that demand immediate attention.
* Division by zero fix for TNT SVD code.
* Sound fix, in case ffmpeg decode fails, don't use the samples.
* Fix for incorrect bounds of transformed objects in new raytracing code.
* Gave memory arena's a name used for allocations for easier memory
usage debugging.
* Dupligroup no_draw option was using layers but not restrict view/render
setting. (not a bugfix exactly but would do display list context switching
while drawing for no reason).
* Fix objects instanced on hair particles not giving consistent results
when the object is transformed.
* New math functions: madd_v4_v4fl, len_squared_v3v3, interp_v4_v4v4v4,
mul_v4_m4v4, SH and form factor functions, box_minmax_bounds_m4.
* mul_m4_m4m4 and mul_m3_m3m3 now accept the same pointers for multiple
arguments.
* endjob callback for WM jobs system.
* Geometry node uv/color layer now has search list/autocomplete.
* Various small buildsystem tweaks, not strictly needed yet in trunk.
Added back the 'corner cut pattern' as an operator property for subdivide operator.
Not added for knife yet, since operator redo doesn't seem to be working at all -
already logged in the tracker.
Add hidden property to be able to force confirm on release (drag immediately is a silly name) on or off.
Streamline method for adding common properties to transform operators.
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
Todo for Campbell:
- Make menu context sensitive
- Make menu automatically run the operator if there is only one option
Note: Saved configurations and keymaps with references to "Extrude and Move" operator needs to be updated to either call the menu or one of the new extrude macros.
