graph editor:
- option "extend mode" requires channel-selection. Moved pulldown menu
from Key to Channel instead
- hotkey SHIFT+E for same operation now works both in channel list as in
main view.
* Textures applied to halo materials showed influence option for normal particles. This was really confusing, and with the cleanup I revealed a couple of hidden features too!
** Particles actually allow for textures to change halo size and hardness, but my guess is that nobody knew since the names were wrong in the ui!
** I also added the option to change the "add" value with a texture, since it was just silly not to have it.
* Halo material properties are also a bit cleaner now.
- This is working correctly but confusing, made more confusing by UI problems, corrected these and updated tooltop for 'tex.use_rgb_to_intensity'
- bad RNA arguments used for lamps (left over from RNA renaming).
- use isinstance(...), rather then comparing type() directly, this failed with lamp type checks.
- removed redundant argument to internal texture UI function factor_but().
- the texture color was drawn inactive when it was used in some cases.
Note. AFAIK its not possible to do a general check to see if a texture is colored or not, eg: its possible a plugin texture returns color in some cases and greyscale in others.
so for now always have color button active.
- Part of this report is a misunderstanding, but there was no access to bold/italic fonts.
- Added rna access and changed the operators to use only rna properties.
Texture face options like "two side" were invisible, unless the
top bar "render engine" was set to Game Engine.
This is confusing, since 3d window does draw these options well.
Added back panel to show default, but with a label warning that
the options are not supported for render.
- a linear float buffer was being created and saved into a non-linear DPX/Cineon file.
- removed the UI since the settings are not used at the moment.
added a utility function IMB_float_profile_ensure(), which returns a float buffer in the requested profile, using the existing if needed or returning an allocated buffer if the profile is different to that of the ImBuf. - Useful this case where the save function has its own linear setting.
* Separate caches were causing quite a lot of problems both in principle and practice.
* For example it doesn't really make sense to have different frame ranges for normal and high resolution smoke, but this was fully possible before.
* Also to fully bake the smoke you had to do a "Bake All Dynamics", which completely defeats the whole point of the feature!
* As a result of this change the smoke cache usage is much much simpler and less error prone.
* This is quite a big change, but hopefully there should be less rather than more problems as a result :)
Some other related changes:
* Changing the cache name now works for disk caches properly too, it now just renames the cache files so should be faster too!
* Smoke is now always forced to disk cache with step 1 on file load as there were some strange cases where smoke was trying to use memory cache.
* Disabled smoke debug prints from console.
* Disabled changing smoke parameters when smoke is baked.
Note to users: The unfortunate side effect of this is that old high resolution simulations have to be baked again, but in return you get much better and more logical functionality. Sorry none the less!
This fixes Orig Dimension display (mostly).
* orx, ory both didn't get calculated, if dimension already matched
* putting them into Strip instead of StripData ment, that using images
of different dimensions in one strip could lead to incorrect results
Still TODO: on file open, timeline display happens before preview
display which means: orig_width and height are calculated after the
first draw of N-keys dialog. You have to hit refresh (or scrub one
frame) to get the right values displayed.
After discussing with campbell, I'm adding a menu in the addons panel to help people to find the addons development pages
This should give more visibility to the bf-extensions project so that people know where they can share their scripts "officially".
(userpref->system), with a great help from brecht (its been way too long
for me).
However as brecht pointed out that the non-AA text is slightly lareger
then AA'ed Text :S, i did not do anything about this as this commit was
just the option not the text drawing.
this commit also makes it possible to do all kinds of UI textrender options
- ortho grid now draws scaled by the view3d 'Scale' setting, venomgfx noticed this was missing.
- so as not to confuse add scale next to unit display text, so rather then "Metres" it shows "Metres x 1.5" otherwise its confusing that grid lines are not in exact units.
- changed grid spacing to grid scale (needed for more logical behavior with units)
- when units are enabled grey out subdivisions.
* documented and rewrote the render interface of the sequencer.
(now, the geometry / render_type / etc. settings are stored within a
seperate structure called SeqRenderData that is passed within the code.)
* that fixes
* cache problems, since the caching system didn't keep track of
proxy files vs. final renders.
* is a necessary step, to bring back frame blending in speed effect
(the SeqRenderData structure elements are already there)
* will make motion blur render options available within the sequencer!
* this patch also fixes:
* "easy retiming" using speed effects. (in Blender 2.49, you could
add a speed effect and resize the source track to retime it to that
length)
* adds labels for the Original dimensions for Image + Movie tracks
(worked in 2.49, too)
* Added the options in UI and RNA
Funny Note: This was on my own to-do list (see commit 20577 in the py file from 2009-06-02 when I ported the UI from C to Python) :P
Disable projection painting for soften tools.
Also it looks like smear tools support projection in the code, so
enabled project paint menu for such tools
It was called "map on length", but it actually makes the UV
values of curves/nurbs to become used as "Generated" texture
map input.
Sorry; this might break own local UI py script saves... :)
Ton will work on moving the File menu out of the Info space before release.
notes.
- reply Operator isn't working anymore.
- UI for reports is commented out so its not mixed with the file menu.
F-Curves tagged as "disabled" now have their channels drawn with a red line underlining their names.
"Disabled" F-Curves are skipped for evaluation, and typically result (for example) from assigning an action from one armature to another, but the new armature does not have some of the bones the action's F-Curves need in order for the datapaths (referring to the property the F-Curves affect) to be resolved. This is to prevent heaps of invalid channels slowing down animation playback.
I've also added a new operator, found by:
Channels -> Revive Disabled F-Curves
in the Graph Editor and DopeSheet/Action Editors, which will clear all the disabled tags for all the F-Curves in the animation editor at the time (based on the filtering criteria).
Use this operator to clear the disabled tags, allowing such channels to be able to be evaluated again (perhaps after adding the offending bones for example, or when using the action on the original armature again).
This commit restores the ability to reorder channels in the animation editors (DopeSheet/Action/etc., Graph/Drivers, NLA). The hotkeys for this are:
- Shift-PageUp = Move Up
- Shift-PageDown = Move Down
- Ctrl-Shift-PageUp = Move to Top of List
- Ctrl-Shift-PageDown = Move to Bottom of List
Do note that only animation data can get reordered using this.
So, do not expect to be able to change the object order (that is actually taken from the order that Blender actually evaluates them per update/frame).
---
In the process, I've fixed a couple of other bugs:
* Removed 'optimisation step' check in anim_filter.c for dopesheet with no filtering options modified, since this meant that the ANIMFILTER_ANIMDATA data filter was not getting processed (and potentially there were other maintenance problems with that).
* Made NLA Editor's channel list not totally duplicate the basic Animation Channels keymap. Instead, the "NLA Channels" keymap now only defines the parts that are different, and this then gets specified before the standard one so that these different parts will override the standard ones.
* Attempted to fix BorderSelect on NLA Channels list. Still not totally working correctly yet though.
* Moved "Euler Discontinuity" menu entry from "Channels" to "Keys". It really belongs in the latter, since it affects the keyframe values, rather than some aspect of the channel (i.e. ordering of channels or how they're displayed)
