Key shortcuts and explanation about how to use the tool should go to the
status bar, but other info can in the header so it's near where the user
is working. This distinction has not been made yet for all operators.
Before that depsgraph tagging was done from inside notifier listener in
viewport. This had the following issues:
- If there are no viewports, selection tag was not done. Causing possible
issues when object becomes visible.
- Required special trickery to detect which data to tag for update.
- Was causing crash when transforming/selecting markers in clip editor.
This is because selecting marker needed to poke viewport to redraw, since
selected bundles will be displayed differently in viewport.
Notes:
* Really need to address RNA setters case, end up adding way too much
G.main here these days... :/
* Added Main pointer into bAnimContext, helps a lot in anim code ;)
The function definitions still reside in DerivedMesh.c. Once we're done
porting all the DerivedMesh use to Mesh, we'll move the still-relevant
functions to mesh_runtime.c. This move is now cumbersome due to shared
statically-declared utility functions in DerivedMesh.c
This commit restores support for Motion Path drawing in 2.8 (as it wasn't ported over
to the new draw engines earlier, and the existing space_view3d/drawanimviz.c code was
removed during the Blender Internal removal).
Notes:
* Motion Paths are now implemented as an overlay (enabled by default).
Therefore, you can turn all of them on/off from the "Overlays" popover
* By and large, we have kept the same draw style as was used in 2.7
Further changes can happen later following further design work.
* One change from 2.7 is that thicker lines are used by default (2px vs 1px)
Todo's:
* There are some bad-level calls introduced here (i.e. the actgroup_to_keylist() stuff).
These were introduced to optimise drawing performance (by avoiding full keyframes -> keylist
conversion step on each drawcall). Instead, this has been moved to the calculation step
(in blenkernel). Soon, there will be some cleanups/improvements with those functions,
so until then, we'll keep the bad level calls.

This way we allow animation system to make decisions based on which
context dependency graph is coming from, and whether it belongs to
an active edit window or not.
This is a hacky fix so that animators can use this tool again with autokey enabled
(which they do all the time). The issue here is that the tool writes the new (0)
values to the original data, but insertkey now reads from evaluated data (so that
keying interpolated values works). However, the cleared values do not get re-evaluated
or flushed before insertkey gets to it (via auto keying), meaning that the wrong values
get keyed.
There may be better solutions for this, but for now, this is the simplest fix that
I can get working.
When using copy on write, insert keyframe operators were reading from old
bmain data instead of COW data. This meant that inserting keyframes would
often read old/stale data, resulting in invalid keyframes getting created
(e.g. from last transform operation, instead of actual current state).
This commit makes it so that keyframing operators will ask depsgraph for
the evaluated copy of the data, so that it can read values from that. It
introduces a new function - `DEG_get_evaluated_rna_pointer()`, which when
working correctly/fully, should work just like the other `DEG_get_evaluated_*()`
functions, except it lets you pass in an RNA Pointer.
However, currently, this is only done for Pose Bones (as a dirty hack, since this
is an important/pivotal requirement for production) and/or datablock
properties directly (since we can just use the DEG_get_evaluated_id() directly).
on the datablock.
Committing to a branch for now as this all needs more testing. More work to come
later at a more sane time of day!
Bone selection overlay is only available in pose mode.
and when active overrules the selection buffer.
This is currently `tricked` by switching the draw engines, but this is
an exception. Not sure how to solve this in a better way.
After this is solved we can look at how to localize the dim effect to only the objects connected to the active armatures. Currently it dims the whole screen (including background).
@campbellbarton I added you as reviewer as it you have done a lot in the DRW_draw_select_loop
