This calls are not strictly speaking needed for the old dependency graph, but
due to more granular nature of upcoming depsgraph more actions requires update
of relations of IDs.
On the one hand this extra tags could be wrapped with if() statements, but on
the other hand it makes sense to keep tag in sync so it's clear if some issue
is caused by missing/extra tag or by depsgraph itself.
The logic used for determining whether certain keyframing settings (i.e. visual,
only needed, xyz -> rgb) got applied was wonky. The original intention here was
that the Keying Set settings would override the global settings, and the path
settings would override what was used for the Keying Set. However, that was not
happening in all cases previously, as it was only possible to add flags and not
to turn them off.
This commit fixes that by introducing separate toggles to control whether the
Keying Set/Path's settings override the settings inherited from its parent
(i.e. the Keying Set for the Path, and the User Prefs for the Keying Set).
The icons used for these toggles could get revised a bit (we need something
which communicates "override this"; the current one is the closest I could find)
WARNING: If you have old keying sets, this may cause some breakage!
Since 1c3f2354f8 the keyframing settings on
Keying Sets have been incorrectly displayed as a clump of toggle buttons,
which are usually only used when only one of the options apply.
Reverting this back to how it was, while leaving bl_options in place still for
the one case where it makes sense to do it that way (i.e. for KeyingSetInfo)
Changing actions via RNA (or apparently from the Action Editor browse menu too)
didn't perform all the necessary updates/tagging/recalc needed to have the
results of the new action get immediately applied in the 3D view. This caused
problems for exporters, as the first frames exported would be incorrect (though
this could probably be worked around by manually stepping the current frame
forward one frame then back again).
This sub-type is actually *only* needed for the "text" property of UI rna api (maybe we should rename it to "PROP_PY_TRANSLATE", as it is anyway only 'active' during conversion from py string to RNA string property...). In fact, I think it should only be used in RNA func properties anyway, as it stores the translated string into the property, it should only be used with "one time" RNA stuff...
This now works for absolute Keying Sets (Builtin Keying Sets are highly context
dependent, and usually cannot be renamed, so this shouldn't be a problem there)
* ID-blocks referenced by Constraints but not being used as the target objects
(such as Actions in the Action Constraint, or Text Blocks in PyConstraints) now
get usercounts for being referenced in this way. This should fix ancient bugs
such as [#19205] and [#8593]. More tests still needed to verify that this
does now play nicely with proxies.
* Changing actions used by NLA strips should now update the usercounts
accordingly
can type in any value, and only when sliding the number value there is a limit.
It was already possible to assign any value to a socket with node linking, so
this shouldn't cause any new issues.
Also raised the limits on the math nodes, with a patch by Agustin Benavidez.
Note about long lines: I did not touch to two pieces of code (because I don’t see any way to keep a nicely formated, compact code, with shorter lines):
* The node types definitions into rna_nodetree_types.h
* The vgroup name functions into rna_particle.c
*Add a new idname to keyingsets, keeping name as label-only (using same string for both made lookup fail when using i18n other than english, as it tried to compare an untranslated static string id against a translated RNA name). Also adding a description string (can be helpful with custom keyingsets, imho).
*Fixed a few other bugs related to that area (namely, you can’t deselect current keyingset from the shift-ctrl-alt-I popup menu, and insert/delete key ops were using a rather strange way to get chosen custom keyingset…).
*Fixed UI code so that it always uses (RNA) enum, and simplified menu-creation code.
Causing a flurry of refresh file prompts post-commit,
Confusing local diffs and causing merge conflicts,
Stating the obvious; redundant and useless...
We shall not miss thou, blasted expand $keywords$
* When clicking on "Animation" items in the Outliner, there's now a
menu containing from which you can change the action used, and
refresh/delete all drivers.
* Moved action-setting logic for AnimData actions to a single utility
function in anim_sys, since this was starting to be done in too many
places already.
* Fixed Outliner refresh bug after changing the active action
Animation Editor toggle tweaks:
* By popular request, curve visibility toggles in the Graph Editor are
now represented using the eyeball icons
* Muting is now represented by a speaker icon (a speaker for this
purpose seems fairly common?)
New icons:
* Keying Sets now have their own icons (as found in a proposal on
jendrzych's "Pixel Sized" blog)
* Drivers also have their own icon now. This is just a hacky one I've
devised which doesn't look that great. Suggestions on this are very
welcome.
blocks via PyAPI/RNA
For example:
ob = bpy.context.active_object # assumes default cube has some drivers
added already before running script
dst = bpy.data.objects["Camera"]
adt = dst.animation_data_create()
for driver in ob.animation_data.drivers:
new_driver = adt.drivers.from_existing(driver)
Actions now get tagged with an ID-code, which is used to determine
what ID-blocks they can be assigned to. This ensures that material
actions cannot be assigned to the object-level for example.
* Action lists in general will now show only the actions that can be
set for that particular slot. This prevents selection of invalid
actions, and helps cut down the list of actions.
** An exception here is the Add Action Clip in NLA Editor, which will
show all actions but will only add where appropriate. This is because
it's not easy/possible to tell in advance which blocktypes to filter
for when building this list. (TODO?)
* The "Action Editor" is now strictly for object-level action
editing+setting now. This avoids repeateded confusion by people who
try using this to view their shapekey actions, which should go to the
Shape Key Editor instead!
** A context switcher for the legitimate times where this capability
might come in handy is still being investigated.
* "Floating" actions (i.e. actions in some action_library.blend) are
NOT able to be automatically tagged until they are assigned to some
datablocks (i.e. loaded onto the rig + played back once). It is
possible to write scripts that check for certain RNA-paths and "guess"
what datablocks they work on, but it is recommended that you load up
the Datablocks Viewer, and go through such actions by hand, setting
the "ID Root Type" property as appropriate per action.
