* Tweaked the code for operator buttons so that only those operator buttons in the toolbar have their text left-aligned. This is done at layout-block level
* Silenced "file_init" print when opening the file browser
* Disabled animateability of the "active_shape_key_index" for Objects, since this property behaves in a very unpredictable manner, leading to problems with users trying to keyframe shapekey values and ending up keying the list.
* Remove some unnecessary RNA wrapping code
* Convert all code to use new functions.
* Branch maintainers may want to skip this commit, and run this
conversion script instead, if they use a lot of math functions
in new code:
http://www.pasteall.org/9052/python
Keymaps are now saveable and configurable from the user preferences, note
that editing one item in a keymap means the whole keymap is now defined by
the user and will not be updated by Blender, an option for syncing might be
added later. The outliner interface is still there, but I will probably
remove it.
There's actually 3 levels now:
* Default builtin key configuration.
* Key configuration loaded from .py file, for configs like Blender 2.4x
or other 3D applications.
* Keymaps edited by the user and saved in .B.blend. These can be saved
to .py files as well to make creating distributable configurations
easier.
Also, user preferences sections were reorganized a bit, now there is:
Interface, Editing, Input, Files and System.
Implementation notes:
* wmKeyConfig was added which represents a key configuration containing
keymaps.
* wmKeymapItem was renamed to wmKeyMapItem for consistency with wmKeyMap.
* Modal maps are not wrapped yet.
* User preferences DNA file reading did not support newdataadr() yet,
added this now for reading keymaps.
* Key configuration related settings are now RNA wrapped.
* is_property_set and is_property_hidden python methods were added.
one active. Now there's a function to get the pointer + property from
the UI, just like for the animation operators.
Also two fixes for fileselect events, regions are now preserved so that
context is restored to the old region, and the cancel callback is called
when the operator is cancelled.
their handlers based on notifiers, which is simpler and more
reliable.
This fixes for example editmode or uv edit keymaps not working
when creating a new 3dview or image space.
* Fix problem with curve mapping / color ramps not updating
things like previews propertly. Now it uses the RNA update
of the pointer from the material/texture/.. so each of those
can define their own update, but still share the RNA struct.
* Code for these templates is now in interface_templates.c
* Fix exception for "axis" property, now it always shows normal
widget with the PROP_DIRECTION subtype.
* Remove context from uiBlockLayoutResolve, no longer needed.
#19345: can't get out of grayed out pointer field.
#19342: item_pointerR fields can't be cleared with one item.
#19341: fix hanging tooltips when manipulating regions.
#19339: context panel still allowed tabbing, but it has no header.
#19334: editing SSS settings crashed previewrender.
#19330: object mode could not be switched on from the header menu.
- They were causing unnecessary visual noise, breaking up the lines of the region edges
- Now you can just drag anywhere on a region edge to resize it, like existing area edges
- To minimise a region, click once on the region edge, or resize it down to nothing. For minimised regions, a (+) icon will appear, which you can click to restore it to the size it was before it was minimised.
* Some of the patches in patch #19034 - by Wolfgang W. (bender)
- outliner.patch - a small fix to make the outliner draw the last
line of the list, if the list is bigger than the window.
- scroll.patch - enables vertical scrolling in the buttons window in horizontal mode. Necessary if a panel is opened that
is higher than the buttons window.
* Also, fixed some messy comments in drivers code
* Grease Pencil works again from Image Editor now. For now, the GPencil datablock is linked to the Image Editor space, but this can be changed if need be.
* Made Grease Pencil hotkeys into a separate Grease Pencil keymap, which can get included automagically like for frames/ui/v2d/etc. by supplying ED_KEYMAP_GPENCIL as part of st->keymapflag
* Temporarily restored the nasty hack to make View2D-aligned sketches in Image Editor to use OpenGL lines only. I still dunno why this doesn't work normally.
(Probably related is that strokes are not visible when there's no image visible atm).
* Popup menus now remember the last clicked item again.
* Modifier and File Format menus are now organized in multiple
columns with categories.
* Hook, explode, uv project modifiers have all their buttons
again with the relevant operators implemented.
* Modifiers that can't be added by the user, or don't work on
curves for example, are not in the menu anymore.
* Fix search menu overlapping buttons when near the bottom of
the screen.
* Fix uv layers search menu not working in some modifiers.
* Cleanup popup menu code a bit, layout engine is used in more
cases now instead of ugly position calculation code.
1) This fits with our splitting the old Buttons Window into Tools and Properties
2) The name Buttons Window doesn't communicate what it is for, only that it includes buttons. Of course, most other editors include a fair amount of 'buttons' too.
3) A 'button' is not usually what you'd associate with a slider, number field, checkbox or menu. Really there are hardly any true buttons in this window space.
Also added some notifiers to sequencer RNA, though there seems to be some refresh errors in the image preview area.
Flaw in python UI for headers: code missing to correctly set the total
width of header, plus obsolete call in view3d header template to set width.
Now MMB scroll of view3d header works again.
* When resizing the window, the top position is now preserved,
instead of the center position.
* Fix zoom level not being preserved in various cases, when
changing both with and height. This replaces some earlier code
which did this at screen level but wasn't very reliable.
* Different tabs now each preserve their own scroll.
* When switching between tabs, it now scrolls to show as many
buttons as possible, instead of possibly showing empty space.
There is a trade-off here between doing that keeping the
buttons in the same place, no ideal solution exists I think.
* Change zooming in/out to be symmetric, for example doing
numpad + then - did not give the original zoom level back.
* Added some calls to avoid hanging tooltips when manipulating
the view.
Internals:
* Added V2D_KEEPOFS_X and V2D_KEEPOFS_Y to keep the top/bottom
rather than the center.
* Renamed V2D_KEEPZOOM to V2D_LIMITZOOM (seems more appropriate),
and make V2D_KEEPZOOM preserve the zoom level.
* Image window only show game properties in game mode.
* Fix image window render info drawing wrong with alpha enabled.
* Win32 editmode cursor now uses a different one than the system
cursor, that one is barely visible, especially in the new theme
colors.
* Center text in operator header print.
* Fix sequencer unlock shortcut key.
* Fix uv layer / vertex color active render button now graying out.
* Workaround to get default zoom level 1:1 again for new buttons
(will try to fix properly later, is due to scrollbars).
* Fix issue where it would automatically scroll when collapsing panels.
* Fix panel dragging not taking zoom level into account.
* Fix enum menu having too small default width in headers.
* Fix tooltips not showing shortcuts etc. if there was not tooltip
defined for the button.
* Fix some refresh issues with color ramps.
* Add a bit more space between columns in the layout engine.
* Make scrollers darker so they are less distracting, and highlight
instead of reverse shading when dragging.
* Buttons header: made tab buttons bigger, remove view menu,
replaced by RMB menu in main region.
* Timeline header: tweak button placement and alignment, added
a play reverse icon.
* Window type chooser menu: removed audio and scripts windows,
change console and logic icons.
* Node space: disable the channel region until it is used.
Added NULL check for View2D code for invalid style pointer (this underlying problem should get addressed at some point), and reinstated the reinitialisation hack for panel regions.
* interactive console python console.
* display reports and filter types. defaults to operator display so you can see the python commands for tools as you use them,
eventually it should be possible to select commands and make macto/tools from them.
Example use of autocomp. b<tab>, bpy.<tab>, bpy.<tab>, bpy.data.<tab> etc.
basic instructions are printed when opening the console.
Details...
* Console exec and autocomp are done with operators written in python.
* added CTX_wm_reports() to get the global report list.
* The window manager had a report ListBase but reports have their own struct, switched to allocate and assign when initializing the WM since the type is not available in DNA.
* changed report types flags for easier display filtering.
* added report type RPT_OPERATOR
* logging operators also adds a python-syntax report into CTX_wm_reports() so they can be displayed in the console as well as calling a notifier for console to redraw.
* RnaAPI context.area.tag_redraw() to redraw the current area from a python operator.
Todo...
* better interactions with the console, scrolling, copy/paste.
* the text displayed doesnt load back.
* colors need to be themed.
* scroll limit needs to be a user pref.
* only tested with cmake and scons.
* Added basic infrastructure to layout user preferences. The
intention is that you open a user preferences space in place
of the buttons space, and have panels there.
* The existing sections don't have to be followed, it's easy
to create different ones, just change the user_pref_sections
enum in RNA.
* This will get separated from the info header later.
Notes:
- These may be taking up a bit too much room in some situations. Perhaps an option to turn these on/off is needed?
- I've added a quick hack in area.c -> ED_region_panels_init() to set the flags to make scrollbars show up in regions whose View2D data has already been initialised. This is primarily aimed at the Buttons Window in the 2.5 defaults file, which seems to have been saved in 2.5 or so
- The expand icons on either end of the scrollers don't really seem to be necessary? (or not working yet)
* Fix poll() callback changes in recent commit, note that these have
to work with pinned context too.
* Hide header for context panels in py layout.
* Don't jump back when collapsing a panel, allow the view to be
over some empty space until you scroll back.
* Fix follow context icon, order had to be reversed in icon file.
* ID template now has icon as part of browse button instead of
outside the buttons.
* Context panel now draws without header, with arrows, no scene name.
* Softbody vertex group search popup.
* Improve names for autogenerated shortcut keys in menus.
* Make most Select menus in the 3D view header work.
* Fix armature border select selection syncing.
* Add POSE_OT_select_constraint_target,
MESH_OT_select_by_number_vertices, MESH_OT_select_vertex_path.
* Merge mesh select similar into one operator.
* Don't give MESH_OT_select_random Space hotkey.
* Add DAG_object_flush_update to many mesh edit tools, not calling this
will crash with modifiers.
* RNA_def_enum_funcs for dynamic enums in operators, but not very useful
without context yet.
* Fix refresh issue with image window header + editmode.
* Fix drawing of shadow mesh for image painting.
* Remove deprecated uiDefMenuButO and uiDefMenuSep functions.
* Remove keyval.c, code is in wm_keymap.c already.
* Rename WM_operator_redo to WM_operator_props_popup.
More toolbar functionality for workflow review.
- Split the region in two parts, bottom has the Tool Properties, the
top part shows 2 panels, one for python defined tools, other for a
"tool shelf" which (later) will get saved in files.
- Added a full context driven framework for this toolbar, showing
the tools depending on 3D window 'mode'. Both python defined tools
as the shelf respect this. So - for example - you will see different
tools in editmode mesh, as in vertex paint mode, etc.
- First template for the python tools will be committed after this commit;
it has placeholder tools to just show/test functioning.
NOTE: if you had saved a layout that shows tools region, open/close it
once to get the new region created for properties.
TODO:
- Moving paint properties to tool settings
- Test a layout with horizontal toolbar (without properties)
- Bring back floating panels, and put tool-properties here. (as option)
Added SpaceLogic, to restore the old logic buttons into.
In future it can be used for a more advanced logic editor, with
states, behaviour, whatever. We'll see!
This commit only adds the backend for new space. Committed this
now as reference for when we need another space type. It's still
not well plugin-able (dynamic space types), but my idea is to just
have a new SpacePlugIn for this, with a neat small API to define
all relevant callbacks.
Also note the icon for the spacetype is wrong still.
* Added option for panel to be closed by default.
* Added support for RNA property and enum icons in buttons.
* Remove some deprecated RNA menu code.
* Fix issue with newly created panels not being inserted in the
right place.
* Fix issue with 3-split layout not being divided correctly.
* FIx issue with menu items not drawing correct using python UI.
* First step for buttons context browsing, read-only still.
* Drawn in a panel now, though this should become a separate region.
* Path of the context is constructed as an array of RNA pointers and
then used for drawing and context lookups from python.
Further work on new "text search" button.
- Now allows to browse items (mouse, arrow key)
- Assigns active value
- Uses different backdrop to distinguish from popup menus
- Cleaned API for it, so it can be used nicely generic
Also added a search menu, which shows all currently working
operators: CTRL+ALT+F. (mind the looks, it needs some tweaks!)
To make a menu activating a button I've added a new event...
could use some tweaks.
Important note: the callback to pass on "old string" for text
button (bone rename) couldn't work yet, added first code for new
callback, but has to be worked on further. When bone rename gets
added it can be tested.
First version of region-scaling. WIP commit, so bear with me a while!
- All fixed sized regions have a small 'drag' widget, on the left or top.
(not yet for free-sized regions, like 4-split).
- Mouse-over on widget changes cursor and allows drag.
- Click on widget hides/reveals.
- Fun for test; 3d view header, if high enough, draws more rows of
buttons when width is too small.
The WIP stuff;
- It doesn't save yet in files, using the "minsize" variable of region
definitions, also means other similar areas show same sizes now.
- Definitions for pref size, min/max will be added.
- Properties panel in Fcurve window draws widget on wrong place when
hidden (subdiv system needs tweak)
- Widgets don't draw perfect yet, also needs further tweaks.
But, in general it's quite fun and usable. :) Many variatians are possible,
like for real tabs, or little icons, or just click-drag on edge.
The reason to first try the widget/tab variation:
- it re-uses the "Area Action Zone" code, widgets for layouting Screens
- it's visible, hotkey-only options for screen layouts are not preferred.
- distinguish clearly area-edges from region-edges this way. Having the
cursor change shape on every edge (and block input) is probably annoying
too... but that can be tested.
Later more!
- Added new popup menu type, which can be used to pass on a
running operator too. Needed it for debug menu, allowing to
set variables outside of operator "first do then tweak" system. :)
void uiPupBlockOperator()
Don't forget to tell invoke() return that operator now runs modal!
- Test menu: alt+ctrl+d gives the G.rt debug value.
Values of 0-16 now can be used to shrink areas, stuff like this
then happens (rt==4):
http://download.blender.org/institute/rt5.jpg
Was looking at ways to visually distinguish areas and regions
better. Yes I know, cute rounded corners, etc. Just testing!
* Hide enable button in horizontal collapsed panels.
* Fix enable button not being in correct position when zooming.
* Fix n-key panels layout being messed up.
* Fix buttons jumping around when resizing and zoom. Part of this was
adding a tiny a 0.001f offset in UI_view2d_view_ortho, otherwise the
rounding is unpredictable (used to be 0.375f, but that was disabled).
* Fix various issues with zooming, panning panels. V2D_LOCKOFS_X/Y is
now taken into account in more places in the view2d code, to avoid
zooming into the center or panning out of the view.
* Remove "Free" align mode in buttons window (it's not really useful).
* View3D/Graph/Image editors now use the same PanelType system as the
buttons window, means some deprecated panel code could be removed.
* Some small visual tweaks for panels.
* View 2D Reset operator (Home key), to reset zoom and panning for panels.
* Added argument to set number buttons as sliders (slider=True for itemR).
* Ignore labels for button alignment (doesn't look right).
* Fix some use of context.main in py scripts, should get data from active
object instead.
* Fix autotexspace -> auto_texspace in py script.
* Buttons are now created first, and after that the layout is computed.
This means the layout engine now works at button level, and makes it
easier to write templates. Otherwise you had to store all info and
create the buttons later.
* Added interface_templates.c as a separate file to put templates in.
These can contain regular buttons, and can be put in a Free layout,
which means you can specify manual coordinates, but still get nested
correct inside other layouts.
* API was changed to allow better nesting. Previously items were added
in the last added layout specifier, i.e. one level up in the layout
hierarchy. This doesn't work well in always, so now when creating things
like rows or columns it always returns a layout which you have to add
the items in. All py scripts were updated to follow this.
* Computing the layout now goes in two passes, first estimating the
required width/height of all nested layouts, and then in the second
pass using the results of that to decide on the actual locations.
* Enum and array buttons now follow the direction of the layout, i.e.
they are vertical or horizontal depending if they are in a column or row.
* Color properties now get a color picker, and only get the additional
RGB sliders with Expand=True.
* File/directory string properties now get a button next to them for
opening the file browse, though this is not implemented yet.
* Layout items can now be aligned, set align=True when creating a column,
row, etc.
* Buttons now get a minimum width of one icon (avoids squashing icon
buttons).
* Moved some more space variables into Style.
1) Remove WITH_FREETYPE2 from code, so now blender always need freetype2
2) Remove the old bmfont
3) Remove ftfont and bFTGL library
4) Implement a new BLF_draw_default function for place that still need/use
the old BMF api.
I try to update both, scons and cmake, but I only can test with make, so
hope all work fine.
MSVC is broken, but I don't have Windows, things to search and fix are
any reference to WITH_FREETYPE2, FTGL and BMFONT (take in care that
blenkernel also have a BKE_bmfont.h, this don't have anything to do with bmfont).
Always have to link/include the freetype2 library
Remove any reference to libbmfont
Remove any reference to libftfont
Remove any reference to libbftgl (or libbFTGL)
Summary of ain features:
- Themes and Styles are now editable.
- CTRL+U "Save user defaults" now goes to new .B25.blend, so you
can use 2.4x and 2.5x next to each other. If B25 doesn't exist, it
reads the regular .B.blend
- Press Tkey in 3d window for (unfinished) toolbar WIP. It now only
shows the last operator, if appropriate.
Nkey properties moved to the other side.
A lot of work was done on removing old themes for good and properly
getting it work with the 2.5 region system. Here's some notes;
- Buttons now all have a complete set of colors, based on button classifications
(See outliner -> user prefs -> Interface
- Theme colors have been extended with basic colors for region types.
Currently colors are defined for Window, Header, List/Channels and
for Button/Tool views.
The screen manager handles this btw, so a TH_BACK will always pick the
right backdrop color.
- Menu backdrops are in in Button theme colors. Floating Panels will be in
the per-space type Themes.
- Styles were added in RNA too, but only for the font settings now.
Only Panel font, widget font and widget-label work now. The 'group label'
will be for templates mostly.
Style settings will be expanded with spacing defaults, label conventions,
etc.
- Label text colors are stored in per-space Theme too, to make sure they fit.
Same goes for Panel title color.
Note that 'shadow' for fonts can conflict with text colors; shadow color is
currently stored in Style... shadow code needs a bit of work still.
- Fun for testers: Added "Redo Operator" Panel in view3d 'nkey' region.
It's going to be part of tools UI I know, but this will give good
tests of what goes on with operators. I had to add small fixes in
Transform for it already. :)
One important issue to note is that it lists every operator, also from
non-3D-window ops. Needs checked or classified somehow.
- Fix: removed bad 2.4x hack from how pulldown menus were defined. Made
widget code cleaner, and will show menus like SHIFT+A correct now.
More cleanup!
- removed old UI font completely, including from uiBeginBlock
- emboss hints for uiBlock only have three types now;
Regular, Pulldown, or "Nothing" (only icon/text)
- removed old font path from Userdef
- removed all old button theme hinting
- removed old "auto block" to merge buttons in groups
(was only in use for radiosity buttons)
And went over all warnings. One hooray for make giving clean output :)
Well, we need uniform definitions for warnings, so people at least fix
them... here's the real bad bugs I found:
- in mesh code, a call to editmesh mixed *em and *me
- in armature, ED_util.h was not included, so no warnings for wrong call
to ED_undo_push()
- The extern Py api .h was not included in the bpy_interface.c, showing
a several calls using different args.
Further just added the missing includes, and removed unused vars.
