This commit *should* bring UI_view2d_status_enforce() (formerly known in pre 2.5 as test_view2d) under control again.
I've attempted to reduce the amount of duplicated code here, so hopefully there won't be any nasty bugs that will show up in some of the other views when they are ported.
Summary of changes:
* Restored V2D_KEEPZOOM flag which I had previously removed, having misunderstood its function.
* Fixed bugs with resizing Outliner window
* Outliner width is now columns + 1 again. Documented reasons for this (otherwise, stuff gets covered by scrollbars, but we cannot see it)
* Cleaned up flags defined for View2D, and added some for defining the alignment of the view's data in the 'tot' rect (i.e. which quadrant(s) the view data is allowed to reside in).
* These flags are used in the new UI_view2d_totRect_set() function, which sets the new size of the 'tot' rect (i.e. the maximum viewable area). Currently, is only used for Outliner, but channel-lists also require this.
* Added API method to reset 'cur' (current viewing region) to 'default' viewing region - UI_view2d_curRect_reset(). Currently, 'keepzoom' is not respected. I'll check on whether this is needed when I recode UI_view2d_status_enforce(), which is badly in need of a cleanup.
- Context in WM wasn't set for regions yet, done now. So repeat works on
per-region ops too.
- Debug print was printing the wrong repeated op.
(repeat-op could show menu naming the op to repeat)
* Added back vertical scale markings for vertical scrollbars. Currently untested (until IPO Editor can be put back in). Also, there was a special exception for the Sequencer, which will need to be checked when the time comes too.
* Fixed the display of frame numbers in scrollbars. Was caused by error in using an int, where a float was required (this is one place MSVC gives better warnings than GCC).
* Outliner horizontal scrollbar now displays a more useful range. The previous range was based on screen width, not width of content.
* Outliner horizontal scrollbar now draws with bevel-highlight line again. Was missed out in a previous commit.
* Added simple toggle Frames/Seconds operator to TimeLine to test if the View2D code is working right for this. This uses the same hotkey (TKEY) as it's counterpart (with a menu for input) did in previous incarnations of Blender.
Added back units on scrollbars for anim editors (i.e. Timeline). Vertical scrollbars have yet to be done, but there's no way to test yet.
Using markers and current frame indicator (and value) as guides, it is clear that there is still some inaccuracy with the drawing of the grid or the frames/markers are drawn wrong! Will investigate further.
Fun commit for test: the Repeat Last option.
Only the split-area Operator is now added on stack, so that's the only
one that works. Just split an area, and press F4 to repeat it anywhere.
BOP_Merge2.cpp
had same variable name at different scopes so I renamed a couple.
resources.c
added include that was missing. (This maybe was going to move? the old one
was commented out)
ed_markers.c
initalized a var that needed it.

Fix crashing in pop-up menus when click.
There's something wrong still in handling menu itself, need Brecht
too look at that... probably a wrong return value somewhere.
Fix: the main button handler was swallowing all events. Now every button
type returns 'handled' only if it did something, so other events get nicely
processed.
This will enable MMB pan in dataviewer.
- Made view2d manipulations redraw on area level
- simplified call to send Notifiers:
WM_event_add_notifier(bContext *C, int type, int value, void *data)
This brings back more control to WM, no context messing within
operators. :) Handlers that execute operators will be responsible
for delivering correct contextes.
In general: should lead to making context not exposed, but only
readable via some callbacks.
- View2d bug: it was taking sliders into account for setting the
window matrix, which it shouldn't (glViewport does). This caused
error offset in drawing, like for current-frame scrolling.
- Current frame scrolling in TimeWindow back on window level.
(used to crash, but that was fixed in WM)
- Made UI_view2d_region_to_view accept ints, no shorts
- removed debug function in interface_ops.c
- after closing button (having used it), it sends empty mousemove for
invoking new modal handler on same button. Don't know better solution
for now, at least this way WM handles everything. :)
- experiment: moved button handlers to area level, that way it respects
handlers on higher hierarchical level, like moving area edges.
Als interesting is that you can have a button active (texteditor) and
use a similar button in other area.
This can also be done on region level even.
On todo: proper notifier events for redraw! Don't want all areas to draw
on simple refreshes
* Changes in interface/ module
This commit brings back the way how buttons/menus work under control
of WM event system. The previous implementation extended usage of
handlers and operators in an interesting but confusing way. Better to
try it first according the design specs. :)
Most obviously:
- modal-handler operators are not stored anymore in regions/areas/windows.
such modal handlers own their operator, and should remove it themselves.
- removed code to move handlers from one queue to another.
(needs review with brecht!)
- WM fix: the API call to remove a modal handler got removed. This was a
dangerous thing anyway, and you should leave that to the event system.
Now, if a handler modal() call gets a cancel/finish return, it frees
itself in event system. WM_event_remove_modal_handler was a confusing
call anyway!
Todo:
- allow button-activate to refresh after using button
- re-enable arrow keys for menus
(do both after commit)
- review return values of operator callbacks in interface_ops.c
* Fixes in WM system
- Freeing areas/regions/windows, also on quit, now correctly closes
running modal handlers
- On starting a modal handler, the handler now stores previous area
and region context, so they send proper notifiers etc.
* Other fixes
- Area-split operator had bug, wrong minimal size checking. This
solves error when trying to split a very narrow area.
- removed DNA_USHORT_FIX from screen_types.h, gave warning
- operators didn't get ID name copied when activated, needed for
later re-use or saving.
* Improved scrollbar drawing a bit more - only cosmetic lines
* Added new view2d view-matrix api method to only use 'cur' coordinates on one axis, for use when drawing markers, etc. that need to be glued to a certain time but stay fixed in space in another dimension. This should improve the sitation for drawing markers
* To aid testing, adding markers now sets the marker to have frame number as it's "name". This will need to be removed later...
* Added basic (non-modal) zoom operators that use a uniform scale factor, with zoom centered using the view center as scaling point. Use Scrollwheel up/down and Pad +/- to use this.
* Added back the 'button'/bubble for the scrollbars. I've added dark lines on either end of it for some later work on zooming widgets.
This is not the final form they'll take. I still need to decide how to handle those scrollbars which act as grid-markers too (showing timescale, etc.), before trying to integrate that with some fancy scrollbar drawing (rounded, etc.)
Assorted changes:
* Moved vertical scrollbar for Outliner to right hand side
* Made Timeline use standard scrollbars, and turned on various clamping options
* Fixed ortho-matrix corrections for scrollbars, and added pixel offsets
* Made Timeline markers sit more snugly on the scrollbar. They were a bit far out...
* Fixed memory leak with view2d keymaps not being freed when Blender exited
* Start of basic scrollbar drawing. This will be improved. Only Outliner shows these for now, as although the Timeline should show them, the old files didn't have them turned on.
* Tidied up the view-panning operator
- Fixed naming convention
- Added user-adjustable properties (deltax, deltay in screenspace)
* Added ctrl-scrollwheel (horizontal) and shift-scrollwheel (vertical) scroll operators. These use the view-panning code too.
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure out why the WHEELMOUSEDOWN events don't seem to be triggering the operators!
* Moved View2D data from space-data to ARegion (aka regions). This has been done because drawing occurs in regions not areas anymore. The View2D struct is currently stored in the ARegion struct (not as pointer), given that most of the regions in use will be 2D anyway (only the 3d-view's "window" region is the exception).
Added version patch code for outliner and timeline only for now. Headers are also likely to need this.
* Added separate keymap for View2D operators. All regions that use View2D will need this added. This includes headers too.
* Pan view operator (ED_View2D_OT_view_pan), currently works for Outliner and Timeline. Use MMB-drag as before.
- It currently doesn't exposed any parameters for redo (via RNA-ID-Props), but only uses some customdata. Suggestions on what these parameters could be are welcomed.
- I've yet to implement the necessary axis-locking features for this panning (which is required in Timeline for example to prevent vertical panning, which moves the markers out of view).
* Fix sensor data pointer code, also made sensor type non editable,
would need to do more work than just setting the type.
* Fix a fairly obscure bug related to inheritance and sorting.
* Complete DNA_ID.h wrapping, just a few extra properties and the
Library struct, most of this is internal.
- RMB select, also with SHIFT
- RMB tweak for translate
- SHIFT+D dupli
- BKEY border select/deselect
- AKEY (de)select all
- XKEY delete
- GKEY grab
Added some XXX comments for future todos, especially for when other
spaces come back with time markers.
Also added ED_util for putting in all to-be-cleaned cruft
Context conflict: input methods for Markers can conflict with other
spacetypes. It was solved in pre-2.5 with manually tweaking it all over,
but I would prefer one keymap for all marker stuff. Needs some thinking...
could be solved with a boundbox check for bottom part of 2d window.
Tweak issue: both tweak styles are possible:
- Hold mouse button, move, operator ends on mouse release
- Hold mouse button, move, operator ends on mouse click
Problem is that modally handled operators use fixed keymaps... like ESC,
SPACE, ENTER, or press/release mousebutton for 'assign'. There's a lot
to say for making this all consistant, or become part of 1 general keymap?
Should also be possibe to define 'tweak' defaults for Tablet different
than for mouse...
* Matches the C/RNA api structure
* Thin wrapper ~(600 lines)
* No functions specific to any blender object type.
* Defines 2 types, BPy_StructRNA and BPy_PropertyRNA.
* Python 3.0 target (compatible with python 2.4,5,6)
* http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/PyRNA - continue docs/discussion here.
Todo
* Collection iterators
* Write access to data
* Define how constants should be accessed (as strings or some special type)
* Solve the "Python keeping invalid blender pointers" problem.
This cant just be solved in the py api - we need blender to notify when ID's are removed
Examples
Here are some examples that work with the current implementation of the api.
rna.lamps["Lamp.006"].energy -> (1.0)
rna.lamps["Lamp.007"].shadow -> ("NOSHADOW")
rna.materials.keys() -> ['flyingsquirrel_eye', 'frankie_skin', 'frankie_theeth']
rna.scenes["hud"].objects["num_text_p2_4"].data.novnormalflip -> False
rna.meshes["mymesh"].uv_layers.keys() -> ['UVTex', 'UVTex']
rna.meshes.items()

Notes
* Added python back, can only execute scripts from the command line with -P script.py
* bpy_interface.c is just enough functionality to run a python file.
had more windows, it left the non-active windows empty. The window-match
code is unfinished (need to bring all editors back), for now it just
follows rule to copy active screen in loaded file to other windows.
Also: added time marker icons (wrong location, view2d stuff still)
Also: bug in random green/purple area code, stopped at 10 subwindows :)
Part 3/3: new icons
- Icon set done by jendrzych! Great job!
- cleaned up unnecessary includes and removed commented out code
- preview icons (for materials, textures,..) don't work yet, have to be ported to new event system
- Added markers (partially) back, ed_markers.c (temporary in spacetime,
where to put general stuff like this?), and added ED_markers.h for api.
- Mkey in timewindow shows marker (no icon, doesnt work yet).
(Adding operators gets easy :)
- Noted some conflict for operator storage... with markers being used all
over, added it to the screen level.
- More todos: view2d is stored in space, for time, etc. With regions we
could move this over, but better todo as post 2.5 project. Multiple 2d
views in area would be cool though.
* Disable editable pointers for now, difficult to support well.
* Swap parameters in RNA_access.h functions to make it more
consistent.
* Rename rna members for operators to wmOperatorType.srna, and
wmOperator.ptr, to make the distincton a bit clearer.
• Removed the RNA_int_default and similar functions, they're too
confusing. RNA_property_is_set can still be used to achieve
the same goal.
* Add functions to create RNA pointers.
Some example code for RNA data access and operator properties:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/RNAExampleCode
* Wrap most user editable data in DNA_mesh_types.h and DNA_meshdata_types.h.
Still needs to be improved in some areas though, especially how to deal
with data layers (expose per element or as array, or both?), and data in
face corners (bmesh type data structures are more logical here).
Tweaks to RNA defining to make some cases easier:
* Added range callback function for int/float.
* Added 'skip' callback for listbase and array iterators to skip items in
the collection.
* Extra error print when calling wrong define_property_*_sdna functions.
* Also made button code respect non_editable flag, is quick change though,
need to add support for properly graying out etc.
- Added standard "tweak" gesture operator, which can be set per region, to
generate EVT_TWEAK events. You can configure tweaks for any mouse button
and have handlers for such events check for modifiers etc.
It even stores tweak direction (8 directions). Might be fun to experiment
with tweak gestures N, S, etc. :)
In general it can be used to replace the current tweak code in 2.48
(std_rmouse_transform).
Test added: on screen level it now adds LMB tweaks, if tweak-South it splits
the area. Will be removed of course.
- Added to Border operator a property to store event used to end border with.
- Moved the "AZone" triangle drawing to the right context (area). It was on
screen level, not respecting area-redraws. Also cleaned up drawing for it,
and moved the "swap buffers indicator" square to look nicer. Those squares
are only for test!
- event-match function had bad code for checking for event-value. Made a
"KM_ANY" define so keymaps can be defined ignoring event values.
- Gesture todo: lasso, "real gesture" (like blender now has)
* Added RNA for operators. This still uses ID properties internally,
but through the RNA API now. The OP_get/set_* API that was used is
replaced by the RNA API. Currently RNA properties for operators are
defined at runtime since it means operator registration can be done
in a single function.
* Changed the existing operators to use this system, I haven't defined
user interface names yet though. I also think there need to be some
conventions on which properties to expose to make these operators
usable in macros, for example if mouse coordinates should be stored
or not.
* When using ID properties through defined RNA properties, it now
checks that the ID property actually matches the RNA property and
removes/overwrites it otherwise. This ensures that you can safely
get/set arrays for example without having to worry that some
external thing may have changed the length.
* Documentation now has some information on RNA + ID properties.

- operator definitions, callbacks, registry to WM and handlers for it are
now always in a file xxxx_ops.c or xxxx_operators.c, in the bottom you
will find the registry and handler code.
- fixed some confusing naming conventions "rip_area vs area_join" etc. Now
stick to convention to first name subject, then operation (like UI :).
So it's area_rip, screen_add, and so on.
- Nicely put exported calls (outside module) together in bottom: this using
names such as ED_screen_duplicate().
- Moved Operator-Property API to new C file.
- Simplified and cleaned previous border code
It was a bit too complex, too many data manipulations
Original idea was to have WM API calls to manage border, circle, lines,
lasso, etc. This now means that WM provides callbacks for custom operators,
so it's very easy to make them. Check bottom of screen_edit.c for an
example.
Currently two borders were coded; with and without cross hair.
Press Bkey in any area-region to test it (note: time window has wrong matrix!)
Some specs to note:
- gestures are in region space, and draw 'over'. That latter still needs some
work when we do real composites.
- only the active region is redrawn.
- on todo is the generic gesture engine for 'tweak' or like how currently grab
gestures in Blender work. These will be configurable per area-region, and WM
then will send the proper "Gesture Event" with properties (N, S, E, W, etc)
to which you then can assign operators. Such events will be generated with low
priority, so other handlers who swallowed mouse events have preference.
- moved from WM to Screen code (it uses active area)
- less code :) result of cleaning some calls
- added WM_window_open() to WM API for this
- now opens new window on top of area, and leaves old screen unaffected
(simple, atomic, the 'do not think for user' convention :)
