This commit groups a set of new tools that were tested in grease pencil object branch before moving to master. We decide to do all the development in a separated branch because it could break master during days or weeks before the new tools were ready to deploy.
The commit includes:
- New Cutter tool to trim strokes and help cleaning up drawings.
- New set of constraints and guides to draw different types of shapes. All the credits for this development goes to Charlie Jolly (@charlie), thanks for your help!
- Segment selection mode to select strokes between intersections.
- New operator to change strokes cap mode.
- New option to display only keyframed frames. This option is very important when fill strokes with color.
- Multiple small fixes and tweaks.
Thanks to @pepeland and @mendio for their ideas, tests, reviews and support.
Note: Still pending the final icons for Cutter in Toolbar and Segment Selection in Topbar. @billreynish could help us here?
This commit adds support for new curve tool and adds more functionalities to the existing primitives, including new handles, editing, stroke thickness curve, noise, preview of the real stroke, etc.
Thanks to @charlie for his great contribution to this improvement.
- Key-map items properties now override tool-options
so modifier keys can have different behavior to the default action.
- Box & circle select now have `wait_for_input` properties
instead of detecting this based on selection options being set or not.
This relied on the key-map setting properties which may need to be
initialize from the tool settings.
This adds an elliptical arc primitive.
Press CKEY for toggling closed/open arc.
Press FKEY key for flipping arc.
Additional changes to gpencil primitives.
Increases default edges of circle to 64.
Keymap changes to allow primitives to be drawn with Shift or Alt key.
Allow Plus/Minus key to adjust number of edges.
Missing: Toolbar icon

Ensure we use lists for keymap items and item properties.
This means scripts can access keymap definitions from other layouts,
manipulating them without sometimes encountering a tuple that needs
to be converted into a list.
Some space types are exposed as multiple space types,
previously the key binding to set the space type would use the last
used space-type.
Now pressing the key again cycles to the next space sub-type.
Without this, shortcut display is confusing since some space types share
a key. Keymap display will need to be updated to support this.
Not sharing caused duplication in the keymap and
required a factory class generator.
Simplify tool & keymap definitions by sharing them.
It's highly unlikely we will ever want these to use different keys
once they're set as the active tool.
For users that want the 2.7 LMB keymap behavior, this provides a way of
working without tools interfering. For RMB select this operator is quite
redundant with the Cursor tool, we may have to find a solution for that.
Note that we also might later add transform tweak to the transform tools,
when nothing is selected. But this is important for existing users who
preferred the existing workflow.
Implements the first changes for T54115:
* Rename "User Preferences" window to "Settings" in the UI.
We'll likely put workspace settings in there, separate from the global
user settings. System settings should become separate from user
settings in future to allow settings for specific hardware.
* Add sidebar region for navigation (scrolls independently).
Addresses space problems, so we can add more categories as needed now.
* Increase size of Settings window to compensate new navigation bar.
* Group sections into User Preferences and System.
Icons for section groups by Andrzej Ambroz. Thanks!
* Bumps subversion for file compatibility.

I also added categories for future work, but commented them out.
We may also want to redesign contents of each section now.

Bring back per-viewport localview. This is based on Blender 2.79.
We have a limit of 16 different local view viewports.
We are using both the numpad /, as well as the regular /.
Missing features:
* Hack to make sure lights are always visible.
* Make rendered mode with external engines to support this as well
(probably just need to support this in the RNA iterators).
* Support over 16 viewports by taking existing viewports out of local view.
The code can use a cleanup pass in the future to unify the test to see
if an object is visible (or we can use TESTBASE in more places).
