This commit adds optional "pressure" and "strength" arguments to the
stroke.points.add() method. These are given default values of 1.0,
so that old scripts can be ported over to the new API with less effort
while reducing confusion about why auto generated strokes won't appear.
values > 1 will zoom in and values < 1 zoom out
Rationale: the changed orientation is more natural
from a user POV and doing it this way is also more
consistent with the calculation of the other
target_* parameters.
Compatibility: This will break *.blend files saved
with the previous version of this patch from the
last days (test period). It will *not* break any
old/migrated files: Previously, the DNA field "scale"
was only used to cache autoscale. Only with the
Stabilisator rework, "scale" becomes a first class
persistent DNA field. There is migration code to
init this field to 1.0
ifdef’ing out defines in DNA/RNA is not a good idea, was breaking alternative keymaps loading
from splash screen e.g. (reported by Sergey over IRC, thanks).
This function is only really secure in a very limited amount of cases,
and can especially bite you later if you change some buffer sizes...
So not worth bothering with it, just always use BLI_strncpy instead.
When WITH_INPUT_NDOF is disabled, 3D mouse handling code is removed
from:
- GHOST (was mostly done, finished the job)
- window manager
- various editors
- RNA
- keymaps
The input tab of user prefs does not show 3D mouse settings. Key map
editor does not show NDOF mappings.
DNA does not change.
On my Mac the compiled binary is 42KB smaller after this change. It
runs fine WITH_INPUT_NDOF on or off.
It's becoming annoying to have public API dependent on build type
and everything. Let's just always have API defined and do stubs
in the function implementation instead.
Current implementation more or less indiscriminately links physics
objects to colliders and forces, ignoring precise details of layer
checks and collider groups. The new depsgraph seemed to lack some
such links at all. The relevant code in modifiers suffers from a
lot of duplication.
Different physics simulations use independent implementations of
collision and similar things, which results in a lot of variance:
* Cloth collides with objects on same or visible layer with dupli.
* Softbody collides with objects on same layer without dupli.
* Non-hair particles collide on same layer with dupli.
* Smoke uses same code as cloth, but needs different modifier.
* Dynamic paint "collides" with brushes on any layer without dupli.
Force fields with absorption also imply dependency on colliders:
* For most systems, colliders are selected from same layer as field.
* For non-hair particles, it uses the same exact set as the particles.
As a special quirk, smoke ignores smoke flow force fields; on the other
hand dependency on such field implies dependency on the smoke domain.
This introduces two utility functions each for old and new depsgraph
that are flexible enough to handle all these variations, and uses them
to handle particles, cloth, smoke, softbody and dynpaint.
One thing to watch out for is that depsgraph code shouldn't rely on
any properties that don't cause a graph rebuild when changed. This
was violated in the original code that was building force field links,
while taking zero field weights into account.
This change may cause new dependency cycles in cases where necessary
dependencies were missing, but may also remove cycles in situations
where unnecessary links were previously created. It's also now possible
to solve some cycles by switching to explicit groups, since they are
now properly taken into account for dependencies.

For now simply reshuffle option so they keep proper dependency flow.
Benefits:
- Has an ability to hide tracks lists to work with other sliders around.
Could be really handy to quickly get rid of lenghty lists.
- From a feedback seems to be fitting workflow better.
Things to doublecheck on:
- Feels a bit misordered: first you define whether one want to have
rotation stabilized, then have tracks, then scale options.
While this follows dependency flow (which is really good and which
we should not violate) it has weird feeling on whether things are
really where they have to be.
- Autoscale controls visibility of max-scale, can we just make it
active/inactive instead?
- Autoscale replaces slider with label. Can it be disabled slider
instead to reduce visual jumping (disabled slider prevents user
input)
Hopefully we'll still want to have collapsable box after re-iterating
over this points, so we don't waste bits in DNA.

This proposal attempts to improve usability of Blender's image stabilization
feature for real-world footage esp. with moving and panning camera. It builds
upon the feature tracking to get a measurement of 2D image movement.
- Use a weighted average of movement contributions (instead of a median).
- Allow for rotation compensation and zoom (image scale) compensation.
- Allow to pick a different set of tracks for translation and for
rotation/zoom.
- Treat translation / rotation / zoom contributions systematically in a
similar way.
- Improve handling of partial tracking data with gaps and varying
start / end points.
- Have a user definable anchor frame and interpolate / extrapolate data to
avoid jumping back to "neutral" position when no tracking data is available.
- Support for travelling and panning shots by including an //intended//
position/rotation/zoom ("target position"). The idea is for these parameters
to be //animated// by the user, in order to supply an smooth, intended
camera movement. This way, we can keep the image content roughly in frame
even when moving completely away from the initial view.
A known shortcoming is that the pivot point for rotation compensation is set to
the translation compensated image center. This can produce spurious rotation on
travelling shots, which needs to be compensated manually (by animating the
target rotation parameter). There are several possible ways to address that
problem, yet all of them are considered beyond the scope of this improvement
proposal for now.
Own modifications:
- Restrict line length, it's really handy for split-view editing
- In motion tracking we prefer fully human-readable comments, meaning we
don't use doxygen with it's weird markup and comments are supposed to
start with capital and end with a full stop,
- Add explicit comparison of pointer to NULL.

When updating the max values under stiffness scaling, they clip at the normal stiffness values
as expected, however when updating stiffness values, you could set them higher than the max
values, and the max values weren't updated accordingly. As the stiffness scaling computes using
the absolute difference between the max values and the stiffness values, you got higher
stiffnesses in scaled areas even though your max is actually lower than the normal stiffness.
This diff fixes that behaviour, by updating the max values to be equal to the stiffness whenever
you set a higher stiffness than the max value.
Also, I have initialized the max values to the same as the stiffnesses, as they were previously
just set to zero, and caused the same problem described above.

New dependency graph puts materials to the graph in order to deal with animation
assigned to them and things like that. This leads us to a requirement to update
relations when slots changes.
This fixes: T49075 Assignment of a keyframed material using the frame_change_pre handler
doesn't update the keyframe using the new dependency graph
All in all, this patch adds an Alembic importer, an Alembic exporter,
and a new CacheFile data block which, for now, wraps around an Alembic
archive. This data block is made available through a new modifier ("Mesh
Sequence Cache") as well as a new constraint ("Transform Cache") to
somewhat properly support respectively geometric and transformation data
streaming from alembic caches.
A more in-depth documentation is to be found on the wiki, as well as a
guide to compile alembic: https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/
User:Kevindietrich/AlembicBasicIo.
Many thanks to everyone involved in this little project, and huge shout
out to "cgstrive" for the thorough testings with Maya, 3ds Max, Houdini
and Realflow as well as @fjuhec, @jensverwiebe and @jasperge for the
custom builds and compile fixes.

Drivers can use this to refer to the data which the driver is applied to,
useful for objects, bones, to avoid having to create a variable pointing to its self.
This adds the ability for cloth simulations to respect changes in the underlying mesh.
So you can for instance, animate shape keys, armatures, or add any deformation modifiers (above the cloth modifier).
This is mainly useful for (but not limited to) cartoon animations,
where your character might stretch or change shape, and you want the clothes to follow accordingly.

We need to leave tweak mode before trying to modifiy the action as doing
so will leave Blender in a semi-corrupted state.

This diff adds a 6th drawing mode to the Waveform Scope.
The new mode shows the RGB colour channels overlaid as a "Full colour" waveform.
The old "Red Green Blue" mode is renamed "Parade" which is the standard industry
term for RGB channels shown side-by-side.
This full colour style of waveform is very much more useful for colour grading than the
Parade mode and is the default waveform for many artists.
Files from older Blender versions which show scopes open as expected.
