View2D had some inconsistencies making it error prone in some cases.
- Inconstant checking for NULL x/y args.
Disallow NULL args for x/y destination pointers, instead add:
- UI_view2d_region_to_view_x/y
- UI_view2d_view_to_region_x/y
- '_no_clip' suffix wasn't always used for non-clipping conversion,
switch it around and use a '_clip' suffix for all funcs that clip.
- UI_view2d_text_cache_add now clips before adding cache.
- '_clip' funcs return a bool to quickly check if its in the view.
- add conversion for rectangles, since this is a common task:
- UI_view2d_view_to_region_rcti
- UI_view2d_region_to_view_rctf
since enough bmesh operations can also take advantage of direct index lookups on verts/edges/faces.
developers note:
- EDBM_index_arrays_init/ensure/free -> BM_mesh_elem_table_ensure/init/free
- EDBM_vert/edge/face_at_index -> BM_vert/edge/face_at_index
- EDBM_uv_element_map_create/free -> BM_uv_element_map_create/free
- ED_uv_element_get -> BM_uv_element_get
Currently only circle and square, might be easily
extended in the future.
New primitives are creating at cursor location.
This also implied adding 2d cursor to space clip.
Also fix set 2D cursor location which didn't work
in image editor's mask mode since 2.67.
TODO: draw_image_cursor better be moved to some
more generic file, but it's not so much
important for now and might be solved later.
Thanks Campbell for the review!
- build with netbsd works again.
- select uv more/less was crashing when called outside image space.
- node RNA property update was crashing when not called in node space.
rewrite to use only 2.
also use generic, reusable functions for selection flushing so each operator doesn't need to implement its own.
and merge more-less operation into the same function, just call the selection flush function with select/deselect arg.
active image texture node in the material, now this is removed and the image in
the image editor is decoupled and not changed upon entering edit mode.
This system caused more confusion then it's worth, changing or removing textures
would modify the material but users would often not be aware of this.
- bevel had incorrect cancel when initialization failed which could crash (own mistake).
- main particle poll function didnt check if the area/region were NULL.
- some uv operators needed space image but didnt check for it. also use uv_ prefix for most operator functions.
PyNodes opens up the node system in Blender to scripters and adds a number of UI-level improvements.
=== Dynamic node type registration ===
Node types can now be added at runtime, using the RNA registration mechanism from python. This enables addons such as render engines to create a complete user interface with nodes.
Examples of how such nodes can be defined can be found in my personal wiki docs atm [1] and as a script template in release/scripts/templates_py/custom_nodes.py [2].
=== Node group improvements ===
Each node editor now has a tree history of edited node groups, which allows opening and editing nested node groups. The node editor also supports pinning now, so that different spaces can be used to edit different node groups simultaneously. For more ramblings and rationale see (really old) blog post on code.blender.org [3].
The interface of node groups has been overhauled. Sockets of a node group are no longer displayed in columns on either side, but instead special input/output nodes are used to mirror group sockets inside a node tree. This solves the problem of long node lines in groups and allows more adaptable node layout. Internal sockets can be exposed from a group by either connecting to the extension sockets in input/output nodes (shown as empty circle) or by adding sockets from the node property bar in the "Interface" panel. Further details such as the socket name can also be changed there.

Border select in UV Image window crashed, if used when Image Window shows a render.
Made operators for UV vertex manipulations having a more strict check for this mode.
(Similar to other UV tools there).
this may introduce bugs which I didn't catch, but they are very easy to identify in a debug build which has asserts to ensure the arrays are valid before use.
in my own test drawing ~98,304 quads - this gave an overall ~16% drawing speedup.
