- Support for python to convert a PyObject into a collection (uses a list of dicts - quite verbose :/)
- Operators can now take collection args when called from python.
- Support for printing operators that use collections (macro recording).
- Added RNA_pointer_as_string which prints all pointer prop values as a python dict.
Example that can run in the in test.py (F7 key)
bpy.ops.VIEW3D_OT_select_lasso(path=[{"loc":(0, 0), "time":0}, {"loc":(1000, 0), "time":0}, {"loc":(1000, 1000), "time":0}], type='SELECT')
for some reason lasso locations always print as 0,0. Need to look into why this is.
this means it caches the compiled pyc files after importing fro the first time.
My times for importing 501 buttons_objects.py files were.
- running each as a script 1.9sec
- importing for the first time 1.8sec
- importing a second time (using pyc files) 0.57sec
Also added "bpy" to sys.modules so it can be imported.
Can draw panels in the scripts space containing RNA and operator buttons.
* Added bpyui.register() so scripts can draw buttons and panels into the scripts space type.
* wrapped drawBlock, drawPanels and matchPanelsView2d
* Operator buttons take a python dictionary used to set the button defaults.
* BPY_getFileAndNum utility function to get the filename and line number python is currently running.
the Python invoke function can then edit the properties based on the event, once its finished the properties are copied back to the operator.
python exec and invoke functions can now return RUNNING_MODAL, CANCELLED, FINISHED, PASS_THROUGH flags
Still need to look into how python operators can make use of invoke/exec for a practical case. (Need to bring back the popup menu's)
"operator.ED_VIEW3D_OT_viewhome(center=1)" calls the operator, converting keyword args to properties.
Need a way to run scripts in the UI for useful testing.
Still need to deal with operator exceptions and verifying args against operator options.
Added temporary WM_operatortype_first() to allow python to return a list if available operators, can replace this with something better later (operator iterator?)
