Removed the version-patches to reset the rest-lengths of StretchTo constraints when loading old files. I can't remember why I added these in the first place, but they seem to cause problems from time to time...
Rename was changed to work on the last selected node. Also size of a couple of
character arrays was changed to avoid buffer overflows.
Custom name shows up now just fine in group header in case it is being edited
as it did not before.
Cessen Request - Added a tool which inserts keyframes on every frame between two selected keyframes. This is useful for adding overlapping motion (apparently).
Use Alt-O to run this tool. The name of this tool is also open to suggestions ;)
Note:
There is currently a bug with this. When there are 4 consecutive keyframes, it won't add keyframes between keyframes 2 and 3.
This commit makes it possible to add a custom name to a node. The feature can be
accessed either by using a menu or shortcut ctrl-r. It currently works only when
a single node is selected. Invoking the feature gives a popup menu in which a new
name can be entered. If the given name is not empty, it will be shown like
"(myCustomName) NodeName" in the node header.
This feature is particularly useful when documenting complex node setups.
I also fixed the size of blur node. It was too short before due to my previous
commit.
Thanks to David Millan Escriva for contribution!
make for example feathers. Also made dupliparts work within groups.
One issue still is that in particle editmode, the duplis can interfere
with brushes and selection, though tweaking the dupli object position
can alleviate the problem.
This commit makes it possible to use relative values when using a Blur node. There
is a new toggle in the node that can be used to enable the feature.

This commit adds possibility to define black and white level of the
mapping curve of the RGB Curves node. This functionality is exactly
the same found in the Curves tool of the UV/Image Editor. It can be
used to extract wanted color ranges out of the input easily.
Thanks to Björn C. Schaefer for contribution!
This commit alters the behaviour of "Toggle Link" tool found in the node
editor so that it only makes link between selected sockets. Links cannot
be deleted by using the tool again as before. Instead deleting links can
be done by using the old method (drag with lmb).
The delete functionality may require further investigation to see if it
should be improved.
Now, when Previewing/Browsing poses with Ctrl-L, it is possible to type in part of a name to limit the poses which can get chosen to hone in on the poses you wish to apply more quickly.
* The search is case insensitive, and doesn't look for complete matches (it will 'match' if the whole search-string is found).
* Only basic text manipulation capabilities are available for editing the search string (i.e. backspace, del, home, end, move text-cursor forward ->, move text-cursor backwards <-).
* Pose browsing using the Scroll-Wheel and Page up/down can be used to browse through the matches
* View manipulation is only possible with MMB, as numpad keys are used for search-string input.
In the process, I've recoded the preview function to be more modular. It's now split up more, like the Transform core.
I hope this time I've fixed it once and for all. The cases which use to fail seem to work now, so I assume it's now fixed. In case it isn't, I'll leave the bug report open for a few days first.
* Tidied up coding style of code in editconstraint.c
- removed blank lines, made whitespace-use more consistent
* Shuffled code in editconstraint.c and BIF_editconstraint.h so that it was in a more orderly fashion
* Reduced code redundancy in test_constraints
- tests which can apply to general constraints (target existance, and clashes with the owner) are not copied out for each constraint that needs it
- ChildOf constraint now gets validated too (before it was missing such checks)
* Recoded the way PyConstraints build the menu for displaying scripts available for use. It now uses dynstr instead of guessing how much memory to allocate for each entry
* NKEY popup for renaming channels was not working correctly. A typo meant that it only showed when the mouse was in the timeline area, not when it was over the channel names.
* Added a few safety checks to copy/paste to hopefully prevent crashes. Also, when there's only one channel in the buffer, it now copies all the data from that to all selected channels.
Proxy protected bones can now get local (per-file) constraints added to them, which will be preserved after a file load. This is necessary for adding constraints to proxy-protected bones for special purposes while animating (i.e. adding CopyLocs to IK-hand controls to pick up an object).
These must be added after any constraints from the proxy, as proxy constraints may come and go without warning. As such, the UI forbids this from happening by removing the relevant button.
I've also made UI-changes to show which constraints come from the proxy (the buttons to move the constraint up/down and delete it, are replace with two icons - a the proxy 'ghost' icon and a lock). Also, trying to change any settings of proxy-protected constraint will show an error.
Notes:
* Object constraints are still not playing nice with proxies yet. They didn't before this commit either...
* Removed "snap" from the names of the entries in the "Auto-Snap" menu for the Action Editor. "No Snap" is still "No Snap" though.
* PoseLib is now referred to as "Pose Library" in the interface
* Tidied up whitespace in editaction.c
also removed FTYPE as an optional format (TODO - remove FTYPE from render output panel since you cant use FTYPE anymore and its not used internally, hint hint)
The warning i've coded 1.5 year ago, to warn when a .blend was written
by newer executable, failed on the .B.blend load case... UI not property
initialized then.
This at least fixes the crash, a menu won't pop up correctly though...
luckily the warning works for regular load or ctrl-x
Attention! Rather large sequencer rewrite:
* Implemented layer blending using implicit effects. (works like layers
in "The Gimp" or Photoshop.)
* Fixed Space-Bar start-stop in preview windows.
You can start playback using spacebar within a preview-window and it _works_!
* Fixed Flip Y (didn't work for float)
* Fixed premul (didn't work for float)
* Added IPOs to _all_ tracks. In blend-mode REPLACE it drives the
"mul"-parameter in all other blend modes it drives the effect.
* you can meta single tracks.
* moved "mute track" from "M" to "Shift-M"
* added "Shift-L" for "lock track"
* changed inner workings for Metas. Now all ImBufs have to use the
reference counting mechanism. (Only interesting for coders :)
!!! Really important change, that affects current files!
Since you can mute tracks and now there is real layer blending capabilities
in place, I changed the silly behaviour that chose the output track.
Old behaviour: if we have an effect track visible, use the uppermost effect
track. If there is _no_ effect track visible, use the lowest input track.
New behaviour: always use the uppermost track. With blend modes active:
work our way down starting from the uppermost track to the first
"replace"-mode track. This is the way the gimp, photoshop, basically _all_
other applications work...
So if this change ruins your day: please try to fix your files using
"mute". If this doesn't work out, I can still restore the old behaviour,
but I really hope, that this is _not_ necessary!
Rational: most people won't get affected by this change, since you can't
really do anything usefull with the (old) sequencer without at least one
effect track and then you are on the safe side...
