It's implemented as a separate constraint instead of adding properties
to the existing constraints.
Motors only apply linear and angular impulses and don't limit the
movement of rigid bodies, so it's best to use them in conjunction with
other constraints to limit the degrees of freedom.
Thanks to Markus Kasten (markus111) for the initial patch.
Dragging on toggle buttons can now be used to press multiple buttons at once, especially useful for layer and outliner buttons.
notes:
- automatically enabled for all toggle buttons
(may change this if it becomes a problem).
- only buttons of the same type are pressed
(helps avoid annoyances eg; dragging past layer buttons onto other 3d header buttons and pressing by accident).
- automatic axis locking - dragging will lock to X/Y depending on the initial drag direction,
makes swipe motions work better, especially with the outliner.
implementation details:
- may re-implement as a region handler (currently its a modal operator).
- checking buttons in-between cursor motion events could be more efficient (but currently works ok).
- button execution needs to be improved
(currently executing a button thats not under the mouse needed a workaround for passing uiHandleButtonData),
requires further changes to UI code, will do next.
notes:
- vertices with zero weights are considered the same as vertices outside of a group.
- currently these show black but this can be made a theme color.
- multi-paint overrides this option (noted in description)
This commit introduces operators to customise the grouping of F-Curves. As
groups are only available in Actions, these grouping operators only work in the
Dopesheet, Action Editor, and Graph Editor (Animation) modes.
To Use:
* Ctrl-G = Group selected F-Curves
* Alt-G = Ungroup selected F-Curves
* or find these tools from the Channels menu
Notes:
* When invoking the grouping operator from the Channels menu, the name popup
won't show up. Instead, the group(s) created will be created with the default
name. To fix, you can either use the F6 operator properties edit OR manually
edit the names (Ctrl-LMB on the relevant channel)
Rename it to "Dynamic" to make it more obvious that it switches between
static and dynamic state.
Also don't show it for passive rigid bodies since it's redundant in that
case.
Now modifier takes a segments parameter.
Bevel edge weights will multiply the overall amount.
For vertex-only, you can give a vertex group name,
and the weights in that will multiply the overall amount.
Systematically adding some custom id to template_list using default UI_UL_list class, this one is commoly used more than once in an area, yielding collision issues if they do not have a custom id...
Justa cluster did not have enough memory to handle all Mango 4k scenes.
Option is default disabled and can be enabled in the performance panel.
- At Mind -
This also revealed another bug, as you could not explicitely set default context to text_ctxt UI func parameter (None is not accpeted by RNA string props), so I had to change default context from py POV to "*" instead of None.
Anyway, that physics UI translation remains weak, as the trick used here (helper func) prevents message extractor script to directly find them. Currently it works because specified labels are also defined elsewhere, but it would be nice to have some kind of "translation markers" in py code too (similar to our N_/CTX_N_ C macros, unfortunately python does not have preprocessing ;) )...
(Did not add those when I created that module, because I did not thought we would actually need them in usual UI code, but turned out I was wrong).
Also made some optimizations in those py gettext funcs, when i18n is disabled at build time, no need to do pyobject -> cstring -> pyobject conversions!.
As per discussion and analysis of all trackpad usage, we now
follow this convention:
- Blender follows system setting for trackpad direction preference.
- If you set your system to "natural" scroll, we need to invert a couple
of cases in Blender we do "natural" already. Like:
- view rotate (the inversed option just never feels ok)
- scroll active items in list or pulldown menu (up/down is absolute)
- ALT+scroll values in buttons (up/down is absolute)
The new User Preference setting "Trackpad Natural" handles this.
For 2.66 we only have trackpad handling for OS X... so this isn't
affecting trackpad usage in Windows and Linux, which stick to be mapped
to Scroll Wheel still.
(Note: viewrotate now is "natural" always, changing how it worked in the
past weeks).
* Disabling Skeleton Sketching now refreshes the view properly, so that strokes
don't linger on even after being disabled
* Added the delete operator to the panel
Although the bug report here wasn't exactly clear about what exactly was wrong,
it soon became apparent that the UI stuff here was in need of some love.
Changes:
* Ported over missing tooltips from 2.49 (i.e. most of them)
* Fixed a few incorrect tooltips (mostly the subdivision length settings)
* Made the autonaming and number/side settings slightly clearer - number/side
are used to replace placeholders in the names of template bones (&N and &S
respectively) when autonaming is disabled. When it is enabled, these values are
determined automatically.
Thought of setting the operator context before so it wouldnt invoke the confirmation dialog, but better leave it by default to confirm since it might be clicked by mistake and start dumping video/image-sequence and can get annoying.
draw_item *is* optional (it then uses default C function), even though there is not much sense to register a class without it, except for our default UI_UL_list!
(and marking rna as deprecated)
I talked with Benoit Bolsee and Mitchell Stokes and they both agreed that
the feature should be removed.
In case someone was actually using it the rna is still available. But next
release we remove both the rna, the DNA and the flag in the code.
I did a simple benchmark with tons of cubes, and the DBVT culling (use_occlusion_culling=True)
always perform better than when it's off. Even when no occluder objects are in the scene.
Also generate rigid body constraint types in py bullet code from RNA enum values (simpler than having to sync the code when something is changed here!).
Side note: RNA API about icons still needs to expose icons for enum values, and conversion funcs between icon_name and icon_value!
Oops! So there was an Unpack button, hidden in the Nkey properties of Image window.
This was drawn next to greyed-out buttons, didn't notice it well.
I also now found the unpack() menu in editors/util, and there's an Image unpack op.
Also the RNA api has an unpack!
Will remove the generic unpack op, and add a sound and vfont unpack instead.
This means the deformation on the input to the modifier can be re-applied ontop of the mesh cache.
In practice this is most useful for using corrective shape-keys with mesh-cache.
Added "Panel Title" style to Theme settings.
Allows to make these nice larger or draw differently.
Also tried to put hinting in Style, but this needs to be a per-font
setting. uiFont data is still not being saved (also not allowing
to set own font files for UI). That's a todo for 267 then.
* Code cleanup for new Rigid Body panels.
* Removed some unneeded split() calls.
* Remove redundant check for "ob.rigid_body_constraint" in the draw() function of the "Rigid Body Constraint" panel. The check is already made in the poll.
Constraints connect two rigid bodies.
Depending on which constraint is used different degrees of freedom
are limited, e.g. a hinge constraint only allows the objects to rotate
around a common axis.
Constraints are implemented as individual objects and bahave similar to
rigid bodies in terms of adding/removing/validating.
The position and orientation of the constraint object is the pivot point
of the constraint.
Constraints have their own group in the rigid body world.
To make connecting rigid bodies easier, there is a "Connect" operator that
creates an empty objects with a rigid body constraint connecting the selected
objects to active.
Currently the following constraints are implemented:
* Fixed
* Point
* Hinge
* Slider
* Piston
* Generic
Note: constraint limits aren't animatable yet).
