I'm not 100% happy with the dome mode description ("physical" doesn't really match the difference between all modes). But for the time being let's leave like this.
eg.
scene.objects.link()
object.constraints.new()
mesh.verts.transform(...)
mesh.faces.active
PropertyRNA stores an StructRNA pointer where these can be defined.
- collection functions rename eg. bones_active -> bones__active, add_object -> objects__add since these should be accessed from the collections only.
- fix warnings in last commit
- added scene.bases (like scene.objects)
- renamed group create operator.
Example
scene = bpy.data.scenes[0]
C = {}
C["scene"] = scene
C["selected_editable_bases"] = [scene.bases[2], scene.bases[3]]
bpy.ops.group.create(C)
Also made operator fake modules not return __call__ (reported by Stani, fixes autocomp. bug)
- adding keyframes now works for bones and other data types (not just ID types)
# Add a pose bone keyframe
bpy.data.objects['Armature.001'].pose.pose_channels["Hip"].keyframe_insert("location")
# Add an object keyframe (worked before)
bpy.data.objects['Armature.001'].keyframe_insert("location")
Updated buttons_render.py to have Freestyle buttons
Added "empty" BlenderTextureManager as preliminary step to remove last remnants of OpenGL and to allow Freestyle to run on my machine.
New current_orientation property that returns the current transform orientation data (if any)
New UI elements to rename and remove custom orientation (visible only when needed)
wm.context_set(path="scene.tool_settings.someattr", somevalue)
wm.context_toggle(path="scene.tool_settings.somebool")
wm.context_toggle_values(path="scene.tool_settings.some_enum", value_1="somevalue", value_2="othervalue") # switch between 2 values
wm.context_cycle_enum(path="scene.tool_settings.some_enum", reverse=False)
the path value is taken from the context so the full path is
context.scene.tool_settings...
This means in keymaps you can cycle draw modes, change PET- anything with rna access.
If its not so nice to map keys to operators like wm.context_set we could use macro's to wrap it and have its own name
Use this for PET and setting pivot options
- Made userpref key shortcut Ctrl+Alt+U since its not used in 2.4x
- added pivot_point_align (Alt+Comma)
- added PET wasnt rna wrapped correctly.
This is similar to the old retopo all option but uses the snapping code and not the openGL depth buffer (it's thus more precise).
Not sure if making it available as a snap option is sensible, this is up for discussion.
NOTE: it will get slow fast on large meshes, we need to plug in an acceleration structure into snapping.
This will need an icon too.
bpy.ops.mesh.primitive_torus_add(major_radius=1, minor_radius=0.25, major_segments=48, minor_segments=16)
- experemental dynamic menus, used for INFO_MT_file, INFO_MT_file_import, INFO_MT_file_export and INFO_MT_mesh_add. these can have items added from python.
eg.
- removed OBJECT_OT_mesh_add, use the python add menu instead.
- made mesh primitive ops - MESH_OT_primitive_plane_add, ...cube_add, etc. work in object mode.
- RNA scene.active_object wrapped
- bugfix [#19466] 2.5: Tweak menu only available for mesh objects added within Edit Mode
ED_object_exit_editmode was always doing an undo push, made this optional using the existing flag - EM_DO_UNDO, called everywhere except when adding primitives.
- added TexMesh access ([#19505] Missing option : TexMesh)
- Ctrl+Tab works again, not-so-nice workaround, disallow switching to paint modes from editmode, but would be nicer to manage this with keymaps.
* Unified scene wide gravity (currently in scene buttons)
instead of each simulation having it's own gravity.
* Weight parameters for all effectors and an effector group
setting.
* Every effector can use noise.
* Most effectors have "shapes" point, plane, surface, every point.
- "Point" is most like the old effectors and uses the
effector location as the effector point.
- "Plane" uses the closest point on effectors local xy-plane
as the effector point.
- "Surface" uses the closest point on an effector object's
surface as the effector point.
- "Every Point" uses every point in a mesh effector object
as an effector point.
- The falloff is calculated from this point, so for example
with "surface" shape and "use only negative z axis" it's
possible to apply force only "inside" the effector object.
* Spherical effector is now renamed as "force" as it's no longer
just spherical.
* New effector parameter "flow", which makes the effector act as
surrounding air velocity, so the resulting force is
proportional to the velocity difference of the point and "air
velocity". For example a wind field with flow=1.0 results in
proper non-accelerating wind.
* New effector fields "turbulence", which creates nice random
flow paths, and "drag", which slows the points down.
* Much improved vortex field.
* Effectors can now effect particle rotation as well as location.
* Use full, or only positive/negative z-axis to apply force
(note. the z-axis is the surface normal in the case of
effector shape "surface")
* New "force field" submenu in add menu, which adds an empty
with the chosen effector (curve object for corve guides).
* Other dynamics should be quite easy to add to the effector
system too if wanted.
* "Unified" doesn't mean that force fields give the exact same results for
particles, softbody & cloth, since their final effect depends on many external
factors, like for example the surface area of the effected faces.
Code changes
* Subversion bump for correct handling of global gravity.
* Separate ui py file for common dynamics stuff.
* Particle settings updating is flushed with it's id through
DAG_id_flush_update(..).
Known issues
* Curve guides don't yet have all ui buttons in place, but they
should work none the less.
* Hair dynamics don't yet respect force fields.
Other changes
* Particle emission defaults now to frames 1-200 with life of 50
frames to fill the whole default timeline.
* Many particles drawing related crashes fixed.
* Sometimes particles didn't update on first frame properly.
* Hair with object/group visualization didn't work properly.
* Memory leaks with PointCacheID lists (Genscher, remember to
free pidlists after use :).
* Added missing RNA wrapping for Scene -> AnimData
* Fixed bug (with temp-fix) where sequence strips with no names couldn't be animated properly. Currently, this will just use the index of the strip, although that is likely to be mutable (adding/removing strips will change it).
* Removed some old unused code from action.c
* Threading buxfix letting MSVC Debug builds crash because of corrupted std::lists
* Adopted two property ranges
* Changed the mixdown volume to set the device volume instead of the volume of every sound.
I also removed the private redefinition of m_logicmgr in SCA_BasicEventManager, which was already defined protected in the parent class SCA_EventManager and thus caused a bug letting GE crash here because of an uninitialized pointer.
% sign for percentage assuming it is between 0-100, while factor is
for values 0-1.
Move collision setting absorption from modifier to collision settings,
was inconsistent to have it there as the only one, and made it have
range 0.0-1.0 instead of 0-100.
* Fixed mixdown volume being int instead of float
* Fixed audio muting for sequencer not working
* Added 3D listener settings with RNA (not working in GE yet)
* PROP_NEVER_NULL is now a flag instead of a subtype.
* It works for function parameters too now, so setting
this flag can help avoid NULL checks in the function.
* Renamed LocalLamp to PointLamp, making it consistent
with the UI name.
* Set icons for the different lamp struct types.
* Added RNA subtype for layers.
* Shift-click works again.
* uiItemR can now also handle armature/bone layers.
* Also makes Move to Layer popup work as expected.
- rename "Nurb" to "Spline" in RNA, eg. bpy.data.curves[0].splines[2].type == 'NURBS'
from a user perspective spline is a more generic term while Nurb is misleading when used for beziers and poly lines.
- added curve.active_spline property so the python UI can display the last selected curve.
- set the active spline when entering editmode (uses first selected spline)
- added back Hide Handles as a curve property (removed the global flag), access from the view panel in editmode.
- added hide normal option for curve, normal size access for curve and mesh display.
- changing orderU/V, endpoints, cyclic, bezierU/V now work in editmode and calls update functions.
- entering editmode was crashing with text objects
- curve.switch_direction() crashed (own fault from last commit)
- Tkey for tilt was overridden by Toolbar, made Tilt Ctrl+T.
- OBJECT_OT_mode_set check for compatible modes before running - so curves dont try go into paint mode with V key for eg.
