Quick Color picker alternative!
- only a color circle + value slider
- exits immediate after use, or slight mouse move outside picker
- use scrollwheel to change HSV 'value'. Also works while picking.
- added nicer AA'ed cursor in picker
- All color swatches change 'value' on ALT+Wheel mouse-over
Old picker is still there, under SHIFT+click on swatch. Needs
evaluation... part of UI keymap? Per button type? Or divide
picker in left/right? Or just have all those old picker buttons
in another panel... I'm not to fond of this giant old popup.
This commit add two option to the blenfont library:
1) BLF_FONT_KERNING
This enable the kerning information that come with the
font, by default this option is disable and still don't
have a UI for change.
2) BLF USER_KERNING
This allow the user set a kerning value to by apply for
every character, by default this option is enable but all
the font have a kerning value of zero.
Ton I add this option to the style with a default value of 1.
Access from:
Outliner -> User Preferences -> Style -> FontStyle -> Kerning
Added search-browse to the Python ID template. Also added icon/button
for 'Add new'. (Note, we need icon for it).
Also fixed bug in search menu closing too quick on mouse-release, when
mouse was close to bottom of menu button.
And removed annoying warning if ID pointer was zero.
First version of search-based ID browsing. Now only in use for the
top bar screen/scene browse. The python buttons will follow.
Also made search button colors match the theme colors from menu back.
Todos for browse-search:
- "Add new" will disappear, and become a separate icon button in the
row of widgets (like X, delete).
- Drawing the preview icons in menu
- Make search menu dynamic, with configurable number of items? And/or
multi-collumn... for now it's static
- Search menu should popup with last active ID visible and selected
20669 to 20771
(sheesh, that took an hour, not including having to restart the whole process after TortoiseSVN bailed out midway through the first try)
eg, layout.operator_context = 'INVOKE_REGION_WIN'
Needed to set the context that menu item operators are executed in.
fixed missing NULL check with anim system debug printing.
- uiItemEnumO_string, forgot to actually set the enum value
- added more sequencer header buttons (these should probably be moved to a view panel eventually)
svn merge https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/blender -r19820:HEAD
Notes:
* Game and sequencer RNA, and sequencer header are now out of date
a bit after changes in trunk.
* I didn't know how to port these bugfixes, most likely they are
not needed anymore.
* Fix "duplicate strip" always increase the user count for ipo.
* IPO pinning on sequencer strips was lost during Undo.
- Move buttons into the sequencer Nkey region
- Made the header and menu items use the python api, still need to get more buttons working.
- Fixed some minor problems
Small fixes:
- Preview render now accepts resize of 1 pixel without re-render,
solves re-renders on scrolling window or dragging panel, because
of float rounding.
- Panel dragging outline was off 0.5 pixel, showed as fat AA lines
- On switching tab, the preview gets re-rendered
Down with smart, up with simple!
I now use the widget polygon code to generate a mask quad strip,
draw it over the image, and then the AA outline. Should work on
all systems.
Removed masking idea for preview draw, it appears Win32 && X11 windows
are 24 bits, not 32 bits with alpha. Not going to open that can of worm
to add this, will find a different masking method...
Preview renders:
- Added proper button type (BUT_EXTRA) for preview buttons, to
handle drawing better. It now first draws an alpha mask, to
ensure the preview is correctly fitting inside the widget style.
It then draws the outline.
- Added protection for executing preview renders while regular
rendering, that's not going to work...
Example sequencer menu
self.layout.column()
self.layout.item_enumO("SEQUENCER_OT_effect_strip_add", property='type', value='ADD', text="Effect Strip (Add)")
* layout.split() now takes a percentage argument to control
the split position.
* ID template now works for more than just the Text ID type,
includes and icon, and some other fixes.
* Accept None as NULL pointers through python function calls.
* Added type callback for pointers back, it's useful still in
some cases. Made Object.data editable using this, the pointer
type varying based on object type.
* Wrap pin ID pointer in buttons space.
* Added subclasses for text and surface curve ID blocks, to
organize data better and get proper icons.
* Added RNA_type_to_ID_code and ID_code_to_RNA_type functions.
* Update RNA_access.h with new RNA types.
Nice goodie: Preview renders!
- Added new preview.blend, allowing super wide cinemascope previews
- Draws nicely blended inside widget type, rounded corners
- Preview now renders using all available cpus/cores.
- Uses - hopefully rock stable - method, which doesn't copy or
allocate anything for previews, but just uses render API calls.
- Multiple previews are possible! But, added provision in Jobs
manager to only render one preview job at a time. If you start
more preview jobs, they're suspended until it's their turn.
Bugfix: new buttons context code crashed when going full-window.
Tweaks are still needed for notifiers. I have to figure out still
how to retrieve SpaceButs button view types...
Several usablity tweaks:
- Search menu allows ScrollWheel to view items
- Tooltip on button on bottom of window showed wrong
- Tooltips were popping up while draggin (MMB) or scrolling
(wheel). Now they stay away.
- Stolen from Gimp (blame venomgfx for hint!): ScrollWheel allows
to go over menu items and use number buttons, only on mouse-over.
Note for devs: the WM_event_add_mousemove() call (to add a fake
event to bring UI back alive after view changes) now works much
more reliably. It ensures the mouse move is only handled after all
notifiers/redraws were done.
Search menu:
- Made nicer drawing for popup version of search. It now uses
entire backdrop like pulldowns.
Search boxes for text buttons will use different style still;
if we use this option all over it shouldn't look too intrusive.
- Search menu allows scroll, to view all items. It doesn't cycle
anymore.
- Click outside search menu now cancels
- If a match is in search button, it highlights it. This also
allows ALT+CTRL+F - Enter to redo last op.
- Search popup draws higher when no no space below. No order
flipping!
Bugfix: Icons were drawing on wrong subpixel positions, distorting
badly. Now it's crispy and tasty!
Noticed there's a magnifier icon already, using it for the search
option.
* First step for buttons context browsing, read-only still.
* Drawn in a panel now, though this should become a separate region.
* Path of the context is constructed as an array of RNA pointers and
then used for drawing and context lookups from python.
Further work on new "text search" button.
- Now allows to browse items (mouse, arrow key)
- Assigns active value
- Uses different backdrop to distinguish from popup menus
- Cleaned API for it, so it can be used nicely generic
Also added a search menu, which shows all currently working
operators: CTRL+ALT+F. (mind the looks, it needs some tweaks!)
To make a menu activating a button I've added a new event...
could use some tweaks.
Important note: the callback to pass on "old string" for text
button (bone rename) couldn't work yet, added first code for new
callback, but has to be worked on further. When bone rename gets
added it can be tested.
* Make modifier and constraint templates use left/right alignment for
buttons in the header.
* Added mdef bind operator as an example of how to use local context
for a modifier, and add some code I forgot to commit last time to
make this system actually work.
Part one of new text button type: SEARCH_MENU
This opens a popup showing all matches for a typed string, nice
for object names, materials, operators, and so on.
Warning: Currently menu doesn't function yet! Only draws choices.
As test I've added an operator search button in top bar. It only
shows operators that can be used in this context now. Also that
is part of the WIP, tomorrow more fun :)
- Fix: text draw in fonts was slightly too low; it didn't calculate offset
correctly. Now it is aligned to have number characters in center.
- Fix: text clip was too wide, giving errors on extreme zoom in.
- Added boundbox-clipped default text drawing for view2d:
void UI_view2d_text_cache_rectf(View2D *v2d, rctf *rect, char *str)
(Note; also for previous commit, this cache immediately projects, so if
you change view2d while drawing, text is still on correct positions)
Added support for cached text drawing in View2D. Cache is needed to
prevent the viewmatrix being set/restored on each text drawing.
Adding a string:
void UI_view2d_text_cache_add(View2D *v2d, float x, float y, char *str)
Drawing:
void UI_view2d_text_cache_draw(ARegion *ar)
Nothing else needed; just make sure cache-draw is always called at end
of a view2d drawing function, to clear cache memory.
On todo for next: a version with a rectf boundary to clip text within.
Fix for Spin & Screw Mesh edit operators.
- now center and axis are RNA properties for operator
- axis is drawn as Normal button in properties buttons. Fun toy!
Added new widget type in drawing and themes: "Box Backdrop", which is
in use by modifiers. Allows alpha blend, shade, etc.
It was using the general button theme for standard buttons still, to
indicate this change I made it a bit darker. Matt/Bill are invited to
tweak this default color :)
* Wrapped the constraint layout to python and deleted the corresponding C code.
ToDo: 4 constraints are still C code (IK, Script, Action and Rigid Body Joint)
* Some Constraint RNA fixes.
* Wrapped the Shrinkwrap Constraint in RNA.
* Added some properties of uiLayout that can be set. I've added
some API code for more than the two I've implementeds, so
ignore those for now.
* layout.active = False will gray out buttons inside a layout.
* layout.enabled = False will gray out and completely disable
the buttons inside a layout.
* Also some function renames.
Added a system for adding a "local" context in a UI layout.
This way you can define for example within a modifier panel
all operators to get the modifier in the context.
In the layout code:
uiLayoutSetContextPointer(layout, "modifier", &ptr)
layout.set_context_pointer("modifier", md)
In the operator:
ptr = CTX_data_pointer_get(C, "modifier")
md = context.modifier
