* Added toolbar UI for setting "anchored" mode
* Added a "persistent" mode for the layer brush; basically you can keep sculpting on the same layer between strokes when this is on. There's a button to reset the base so you can add another layer on top of that, and so on.
This feature was suggested by Blenderer on BA, thanks!
Note, I think these options could use better names in the UI, but I couldn't really think of anything very descriptive, suggestions welcome
- added better error feedback when registering operators fails.
- added some python benchmark timers (prints on exit), times number of times py scripts run, average time and total % of time running py scripts.
* WITH_BF_FFTW3 flag --> fftw3 scons + cmake settings refined.
* Disabled by default since mac + win32 libs missing. Works already on win64 + linux (with installed fftw3 libs)
- Bugfix: a bit too fast ;-) Better do it right too (problem with res > 150)
- fixing high res view button which disappeared sometimes
- fixing tooltip
* Sun lamp type export (known as parallel lights in povray)
* Native support for blenders metaballs, currently exports
- ball and ellipsoid types
- radius, stiffness
- ellipsoid xyz scale
- negative elements
- single material (like blender)
Renamed rna props.
elem.sizex -> size_x
mball.last_selected_element -> mball.active_element
minor changes to UI scripts.
As Joe point on a previous mail, glBitmap don't work nice
on all cards and also some of the things that we can do
with texture are hard (or need that blender check the font mode)
to implement.
-Deleted old Buttons C code for RIGIDBODYJOINT constraint.
-"Realtime" Icon for Modifer was different in Template and RNA, i changed the Icon in RNA to match the template version, which is an eye instead of a cube.
- ghost data wasn't being freed (added wm_ghost_exit() call to wm_init_exit.c)
- GHOST_EventManager wasn't freeing GHOST_IEventConsumer's
- ghost/X11 wasnt calling XCloseDisplay(), some junk from X11 wasnt being freed
- ghost/X11 XAllocNamedColor wasn't freeing the colors when done making a custom cursor.
When there were no strips but some empty tracks, the active action should be evaluated normally. This is not an optimal solution (more user testing + suggestions regarding the best way to do this is welcome).
* That also means you can't really change them and save it before we actually do a do_version.
* Marking the old variables in DNA_world_types.h to be removed.
* Added callback function for some metaball properties:
When some properties (wiresize, threshold, update flags) of metaball are changed, then these properties are copied to all metaballs in the group (all metaballs with same base name). This is important to "share" some properties between metaballs, because polygonisation of metaball is influenced only by properties of base metaball and base metaball can be changed.
* Improved drawing of selected Metaball objects
Multires > Multiresolution
The term 'Subsurf' was really confusing, because of the similar term Subsurface Scattering, meaning something completely different. Additionally, the prefix 'sub' (meaning 'lower' or 'under'), as well as the word 'surf' (meaning water foam / a water sport) really mean completely different things on their own, making 'subsurf' a terrible abbreviation.
-Removed shadows from most UI items. The shadow settings are unfortunately not really useful, because you can't set them for individual items. There was a lot of black text with black shadows, which really only makes the text look fuzzy. For shadows to improve clarity, they should be the opposite color of the text label, not the same color.
-Tweaked material layout, with clearer grouping in Ray Mirror and Ray Transparency panels.
-Added icons in the texture type menu to signify which textures are procedural and which ones are images, and plugins.
