* Added more compact property definitions, with a single function.
Only used by operators at the moment, would need to tweak regular
expressions a bit more to use it also for other RNA definitions.
* The operator properties defined now were completed a bit more but
still have many issues that need to be adressed, specifically;
* Some properties that should be booleans or enums are defined as
ints, note that ints are only for numeric values, not bitflags
or multiple choice.
* Soft/hard limits and default values of many properties are not
well defined still,
* Inconsistent naming, especially for example mouse locations or
bounds are named differently in different places. Also mouse
locations and other vector like properties should become a single
vector property instead of multiple X/Y properties.
* Almost no properties have descriptions, these would be good to
have for docs and tooltips.
So, please verify that the properties of the operators you wrote are
well defined.
First commit for 2009!
Started of porting of Animation Editor Channels stuff.
This code will be used for both the Action and IPO editors, so any existing code involving this has now been moved to the Animation module.
* Added mouse-click operator for this channels view. Note: the selection stuff currently uses temporary toggling code only (i.e. it only toggles the selection of the channels in the editor, but does not update status of rest of database).
* Fixed bugs in View2D listview functions. Reduced the amount of code needed, and makes the code here simpler.
* Renamed action_edit_keyframes.c to action_edit.c, since channels are not handled there anymore.
* Dopesheet now refreshes correctly when object selection elsewhere changes.
* Added 'set handle-type' operator. Currently, all possible handle types are all set using a menu and HKEY. This will need to be reviewed at some point, but I think it should be easier for users to remember 1 hotkey for this, rather than 4 scattered around the place.
* Added 'set interpolation' operator. This uses the Shift-T hotkey as before (for now). As in AnimSys2, this sets per-keyframe interpolation.
* Remapped toggle frames/time-codes operator to Ctrl-T key. This may still change, but the TKEY needs to be free for transform tool here.
Notifier system upgrade, based on Brecht's doc.
Implementation notes:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/DataNotifiers#Implementation
In short: let's try to strictly communicate in a notifier what happened.
The listeners then can act themselves. It also means that a frame-changed
notifier doesn't send out redraws, the editors themselves can decide.
Ported the following tools
* borderselect
* invert selection
Note: while porting these, I noticed a few issues with some stuff that still needs to be cleaned up.
Events handling in scrollers won't work yet, for the useful select all in frame(-range) or select all in channel(s). We should probably review ways to expose this more clearly in the UI too.
* Re-exposed relevant parts of anim_keyframing.c code that doesn't have external dependencies.
* Added get_active_posechannel() to blenkernel api for poses/posechannels to solve the only missing link I found. This should have been moved there ages ago!
Moved time_ops.c contents to anim_ops.c, as the operators there are applicable to all other Animation Editors too. anim_ops.c will therefore contain all operators which will apply to all Animation Editors (i.e. change frame, frames/seconds display toggle, and soon Preview Range tools).
As such, added new global 'Animation' keymap like for View2D and Markers, which will ensure that these tools can be accessed in an uniform way across editors.
Note that the order that these things are added is important, as the Animation ones will often 'steal' events from the View2D and Markers ones if placed before the others. To prevent that, we'd need to be able to set boundboxes here...
