in the UV/Image editor 'UVs' menu
Script authors can use:
Group: 'UV'
in the headers of their scripts to let them appear in
this menu.
* Updated the UV Face Layout script to reside in the UVs
menu, rather than the (incorrect) File->Export menu.
- updated docs with recently added functions
- dynamic menu entries now are sorted (alphabetically, of course)
- added new menu categories for scripts: Wizards, Modifiers, Generators, Materials, Animation:
only added to list of options, didn't mess with any Blender header. They are already available from the "Scripts" menu in the scripts win, but not elsewhere.
- added option 'datadir' to Blender.Get(option):
so scripts can use .blender/bpydata for reading / writing their data files.
- as proposed by Ton, default dir for menu enabled scripts is:
userhome/.blender/scripts if available or (using bprogname -- argv[0]),
blenderInstallationDir/.blender/scripts/ otherwise.
- moved a piece of code from BPY_interface.c to BPY_menus.c to get rid
of a linkage warning reported by J. Walton
-- added the first scripts to release/scripts:
We need time to get more scripts there, but the situation should improve
consistently from now on. Adding three export scripts: cal3d, directX, ac3d.
And one import: ac3d.
- local tentative fix for BLI_gethome(), which returns '.blender' appended only
on some Windows systems. Created bpymenu_gethome() to check and
add '.blender' if needed.
- changed name: .Bpymenus to Bpymenus as suggested by GSR
- trivial additions:
Object module: added methods .set/getSize
Armature/Bone module: bone.set???() methods now accept both n
floats or a list of n floats: fff or (fff). All these additions were requested
by user Carlos Lopez (Klopes).
- New doc: for module Registry.
- now the file .Bpymenus is in ~/.blender/, please delete the old one
- both ~/.blender/scripts/ and (if set) user pref scripts dir are scanned for scripts
- 2 scripts of the same group with the same name, one in each dir: user pref overwrites the other's entry
- fixed the problem with trailing backslash, was my fault (used NULL instead of "/" for relbase in BLI_make_file_string
- slightly changed msgs to be less verbose and parsing to be more forgiving
- if a script registers with a wrong group, 'Misc' is used instead
- 'Blender' tag is now checked, gives a warning (notice) msg if script is newer than Blender program
Blender.NMesh module and doc:
- added vertex.sel var to get/set selection state of vertex.
-- this finishes the heavier part (not counting tweaks and possible bugs) of
letting scripts be accessed from Blender menus. Will explain more in emails
to bf and bpython lists, but just check
source/blender/python/BPY_menus.[hc] and
source/blender/src/header_info.c and header_script.c for details.
Scripts need a small update (registering info, basically a header) to be used.
Scripts dir (user pref file paths: Python) must be set.
