- operator strings were doing undo pushes (in fileselector text for example), this is dumb since the operators themselves handle undo.
- interface code checks rna props are arrays rather then checking the array length.
- disable properties window pin undoing.
- sequencer refresh was calling undo, disable since this is clearnign global data not handled by undo.
- added commented out code for drawing mesh vertex index/key index, useful for debugging shapekey - hook issyes.
added _prop suffix to ui functions which take a prop rather then a propname, may change this later since its not that nice but for gsoc branches this keeps existing UI functions working the same.
Now this gives the line number of the scripts thats running, eg:
uiItemFullO: unknown operator 'some.operator'
/c/bin/2.56/scripts/startup/bl_ui/space_view3d_toolbar.py:73
popup appears, saving an extra click
I've separated out the "XXX"-'d event-adding-hack section from the
search-menu code into a separate API function (as recommended there).
This call is used to make sure that textboxes in popups can get
activated by default, to allow typing immediately.
most local modifier,GPU,ImBuf and Interface functions are now static.
also fixed an error were the fluid modifier definition and the header didnt have the same number of args.
Report was that move-to-layer menu failed. The real cause was
more complex; had to dive deep in the dungeons of the interface
code that handled undos and operators. Found several issues:
- popup menus (like redo operator, color picker) executed again
on a mouse-exit
- far too many buttons were sending undo pushes; even worse, in
the operator redo-panel each button action was pushed twice
- in case operator redo-buttons have own callbacks (like layer
buttons) the redo wasn't working
- layerbutton menu was called without creating a proper undo/redo
case
Things should all work smoother now!
On todo:
- better definition and handling of all versions for operator menus
(four types now, not fun)
also: make operator "do" menu, which on first action does operator
and then switches to redo-ing
- bring back Undo menu, to list the undo stack and jump in it.
- operators need to enable the option OPTYPE_PRESET or 'PRESET' in python.
- hidden properties are not written.
- currently this only works in the file selector (enabled for FBX/OBJ export)
- currently the menu label doesnt change when presets are selected, this is a TODO, not so simple since the UI is defined in C and the label in python.
- presets save in "scripts/presets/operators/*id*/*.py"
Graph editor: submenu for handle type had drawing error.
Seems to be the collumns-separator feature for enum properties?
No time for debugging that, a 5-item menu doesn't need 2 collumns.
For constraints that have 'disabled' flag (because it has invalid
input) the name was drawn in red. Easy to recognize constraints that
stopped working.
Also use const char in many other parts of blenders code.
Currently this gives warnings for setting operator id, label and description since these are an exception and allocated beforehand.
- made interface, windowmanager, readfile build without unused warnings.
- re-arranged CMake's source/blender build order so less changed libs are build later, eg: IK, avi
eg:
row.prop_search_self(scene, "active", "keying_sets", text="")
...becomes
row.prop_search(scene.keying_sets, "active", scene, "keying_sets", text="")
This is more flexible since it works for other UI functions too.
layout.prop_search_self(), the same as layout.prop_search() except it uses an attribute of the collection.
A number of collections have an 'active' member which couldnt be used with prop_search() and meant we had a mix of active properties being in collections and directly added as properties.
