- making this change now because some addons developers are interested in showing keymap UI in their addons prefs and using the class involved making a fake class instance which isnt needed.
there are cases where you want to use visual-keying but not remove constraints, also it wasnt obvious that clearing constraints used a different method of keyframing.
So split these into 2 options.
This was caused by r.57812
There were two problems here:
1) vertex_group_vert_select_unlocked_poll() had faulty logic which meant that
it always failed when there were no vgroups present yet - the final return
always just fell through
2) Since the "Assign to New Groups" option was actually implemented using the
same operator as "Assign to Active Group" (just with an extra parameter set), if
the active group was locked, it was not possible to "Assign to New Group" (even
though a new group would not be locked).
Added function called WM_set_locked_interface which does
two things:
- Prevents event queue from being handled, so no operators
or values are even possible to run or change. This prevents
any kind of "destructive" action performed from user while
rendering.
- Locks interface refresh for regions which does have lock
set to truth in their template. Currently it's just a 3D
viewport, but in the future more regions could be considered
unsafe, or we could want to lock different parts of
interface when doing different jobs.
This is needed because 3D viewport could be using or changing
the same data as renderer currently uses, leading to threading
conflict.
Notifiers are still allowed to handle, so render progress is
seen on the screen, but would need to doublecheck on this, in
terms some notifiers could be changing the data.
For now interface locking happens for render job only in case
"Lock Interface" checkbox is enabled.
Currently this option would only make rendering thread-safe, but
in the future more benefits are possible to gain from it. Namely,
if we'll make renderer using it's own graph, this option would
allow to free memory used by 3D viewport graph, which would help
keeping memory usage low (or even would allow renderer not to
copy anything in this case).
Initially thought this change will also allow to free DMs used
by viewport, but we couldn't actually do this. This is because
of modifiers which uses other objects (like boolean), They're
in fact using viewport DM. This is bad because of few reasons.
We currently need to have viewport DM when rendering.
And for sure even in background render viewport DMs are being
calculated. This sounds like 2x computing is needed: one is for
viewport DM and one is for RenderDM.
If we'll have local graphs, we'll be able to compute RenderDMs
only and store them in graph. This would require a bit more of
the memory, but would solve current issues with viewport DM
used for modifiers operands while rendering and it should give
quite noticeable speedup.
Other tools like backing would also benefit of this option,
but rather get approval of current way of locking first.
Update from a script I had in 2.4x, useful if you have mesh data which is _almost_ symmetrical,
there was no good way to automatically make the minor adjustments to make the mesh fully symmetrical.
Options for...
- symmetry-axis.
- blending between the +/- side.
- center mid verts.
Access from Mesh menu.
It removes buttons_header.c file, adds a (small) space_properties.py one, with a PROPERTIES_HT_header class, which simply uses the RNA enum to draw the context buttons.
It also fixes that enum, btw, it always featured all contexts, which means you could (try to!) set through RNA invalid contexts...
Thanks to brecht and dingto for the reviews.
Was using edge-slide & remove-doubles but this was error prone since remove doubles could fail in some cases or find doubles where it shouldn't (with very small scale objects).
This gives more predictable behavior when the edges of a loop wouldnt slide (in that case they would just drag over to one of the sides with no user control)
and multiple edge loops work better too. eg:

the Parameter Editor mode. The Material Boundary toggle button takes
effect only in the Python Scripting mode. Instead the Parameter Editor
mode automatically determines which edge types need to be computed on the
basis of user-specified line selection criteria in terms of edge types.
Problem report from Light BWK through personal communications, thanks!
* Added a node to convert wavelength (in nanometers, from 380nm to 780nm) to RGB values. This can be useful to match real world colors easier.
* Code cleanup:
** Moved color functions (xyz and hsv) into dedicated utility files.
** Remove svm_lerp(), use interp() instead.

This is part of my GSoC 2013. (revisions 57322, 57326, 57335 and 57367 from soc-2013-dingto).
linked via material
Textures linked to modifiers are now shown in the AnimEditor channel hierarchy
under object level now (i.e. on same level as ob-data, shapekeys, and object's
action). This makes it possible to edit such animation data without having to
ensure that these textures are also linked to the object's material so that they
will appear.
As a side-effect of how this is implemented, if playback is slower on scenes
following this commit, disable the "modifier" filter under the filtering
settings in the relevant animation editor header. In particular, it may be
beneficial to disable this when you've got scenes with meshes that have many
modifiers (but none of these have any linked data with settings which can be
animated), as Blender will still try to go through all those modifiers checking
for anything to show.
- script execution is off by default
- if a blend file attempts to execute a script
this shows a message in the header with the action
that was suppressed (script/driver/game-autostart) and 2 buttons to either reload the file trusted, or to ignore the message.
- the file selector will always default to use the trust setting in the user preferences,
but reloading an open file will keep using the current setting (whatever was set before or set on the command-line).
- added SCons setting WITH_BF_PYTHON_SECURITY, this sets the default state for the user prefereces not to trust blend files on load.
... this option was in CMake before, but always off, now its enabled by default for SCons and CMake, and forced on in CMake for now.
