Added option display_type to WM_operator_properties_filesel which defines which file
display type (short/list/icons/default) should be used for file browser.
All current operators are using FILE_DEFAULTDISPLAY display type which means display
type will still be calculated based on type of opening file and user preferences
settings. Recover Auto Save operator is now using long display type so file date can
easily be checked now.
Reviewed by Andrea, thanks!
- initialize the relative_path option in ED_fileselect_get_params(), saves initializing within every operators own init functions, some even trying to initialize a non existing property.
- don't set the operator default from the user preferece, operator property defaults should be static else python scripts for eg can get different defaults depending on user settings, this also wont get updated when user-defaults are edited so generally confusing & not good practice.
Sequencer: Properties -> Panel "Strip Input" -> file browse button
next to directory name assigned the full file name.
Added on todo: unported code still for "Change Sequence", allowing
to rebrowse strip contents.
when selecting paths from the user preferences always default relative option to off.
otherwise you get paths like '//..\..\..\..\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\bin\gimp-2.6.exe'
Both stored the filename of the blend file, but G.sce stored the last opened file.
This will make blender act differently in some cases since a relative path to the last opened file will no longer resolve (which is correct IMHO since that file isnt open and the path might not even be valid anymore).
Tested linking with durian files and rendering to relative paths when no files is loaded however we may need to have some operators give an error if they are used on the default startup.blend.
- Holding Alt while clocking on the browse button opens a file browser with the containing dir.
- Holding Shift opens the file its self in the default application.
obscure but at least theres a tooltip so its not totally hidden.
- bugfix for copying a scene with FFMPEG properties set (wasnt copying the ID properties, could crash blender)
- relative path option for adding sequence strips and replaceing images.
path -> filepath (for rna and operators, as agreed on with elubie)
path -> data_path (for windowmanager context functions, this was alredy used in many places)
- added relative option to saving external multires data
- renamed multires external functiosn to have save / pack as suffix.
- added TODO's for file select operators that should support relative paths but dont.
- also disable openmp on linux cross compile, mingw currently isnt linking -lgomp
Only source/blender/editors/ dir, should not give errors on different platforms
Only removing: UI_*.h, ED_*.h, WM_*.h, DNA_*.h, IMB_*.h, RNA_*.h, PIL_*.h
The 'save over' popup was only appearing based on a string comparison of the operator name ("Save"). Changed this to use a hidden operator property: "check_existing". Python operators must
have this property for the file selector confirmation too.
This property can also be set to false, to prevent checking for existing files, useful in the File->Save menu item to prevent the dangerously missable confirmation popup.
Editors Modules
* render/ module added in editors, moved the preview render code there and
also shading related operators.
* physics/ module made more consistent with other modules. renaming files,
making a single physics_ops.c for operators and keymaps. Also move all
particle related operators here now.
* space_buttons/ now should have only operators relevant to the buttons
specificially.
Updates & Notifiers
* Material/Texture/World/Lamp can now be passed to DAG_id_flush_update,
which will go back to a callback in editors. Eventually these should
be in the depsgraph itself, but for now this gives a unified call for
doing updates.
* GLSL materials are now refreshed on changes. There's still various
cases missing,
* Preview icons now hook into this system, solving various update cases
that were missed before.
* Also fixes issue in my last commit, where some preview would not render,
problem is avoided in the new system.
Icon Rendering
* On systems with support for non-power of two textures, an OpenGL texture
is now used instead of glDrawPixels. This avoids problems with icons get
clipped on region borders. On my Linux desktop, this gives an 1.1x speedup,
and on my Mac laptop a 2.3x speedup overall in redrawing the full window,
with the default setup. The glDrawPixels implementation on Mac seems to
have a lot of overhread.
* Preview icons are now drawn using proper premul alpha, and never faded so
you can see them clearly.
* Also tried to fix issue with texture node preview rendering, globals can't
be used with threads reliably.
Appending and Linking
* Linking Operator, invokes filebrowser for Append/Link
* Separated the append/link function into three parts:
** BLO_library_append_begin finds main for appending
** BLO_library_append_named_part appends one Object,Group, Material, ...
** BLO_library_append_end actually reads and expands the libraries
NOTE 1:
I also changed the returned properties for the filebrowser operators to the following convention:
"path" - the full path to a file or directory, means what is in directory + filename buttons in filebrowser
"directory" - the content of the directory button in filebrowser
"filename" - the content of the filename button in filebrowser
Usually only path should be required, but in some cases it might be more convenient to retrieve the parts separately.
Ton, Brecht: If you have time to take a look, let me know if anything needs to be fixed.
- Hair dynamics have their own panel in particle settings with the settings from cloth panel that apply to hair.
- Basic internal friction force to quickly emulate self collisions and volume preservation. (Still very early code, but gives some idea of what's possible).
- Softbody simulation is no longer used for hair.
* Old files with sb dynamics should just load the hair without dynamics so new dynamics can be applied.
* Invasion of particles exceptions in sb code is finally over.
- Collisions with other objects are disabled for now and will be worked out in the future.
Other changes/fixes:
- Particle mode editing flag wasn't saved properly.
- Some old files with edited hair didn't load correctly.
- Disabled delete & specials menu in particle mode for non-hair editing.
- Fixed yet one more cloth & softbody pointcache update issue.
- Disconnect/connect hair now uses only the deformed mesh so it works correctly also for subsurfed emitters.
- Hair editing now updates correctly with a moving emitter.
* Split object_edit.c into multiple files:
object_add.c, object_edit.c, object_hook.c, object_relations.c,
object_select.c, object_transform.c.
* Rename files to have consistent object_ and mball_ prefix:
object_shapekey.c, object_lattice.c, object_vgroup.c, mball_edit.c.
* Added operators:
* vertex group menu and set active
* apply location, rotation, scale, visual transform (location is new)
* make local
* make vertex parent
* move to layer
* convert to curve/mesh (not finished yet)
* Many small fixes for marked issues, but still much code to be cleaned
up here...
- Moves hair from face-space to global space and back.
- Allows for editing of emitter mesh after hair combing.
- Disconnect hair before doing topology changing changes in mesh edit mode, connect after changes.
- Notes:
* The closest location on emitter surface to the hair root is used to connect the hair.
* Emitter deflection, sticky roots and add brush don't apply for disconnect hair in particle mode.
- Todo for future:
* Copy disconnected hair from object to another (when 2.5 has proper copy operators again).
* Possible automatic disconnect/connect with topology changing operations in mesh edit mode.
Other changes/fixes:
- Proper subtypes for some particle mode notifiers.
- Particle mode selections didn't draw correctly because of using lighting for the paths.
Notifiers
---------
Various fixes for wrong use of notifiers, and some new notifiers
to make things a bit more clear and consistent, with two notable
changes:
* Geometry changes are now done with NC_GEOM, rather than
NC_OBJECT|ND_GEOM_, so an object does need to be available.
* Space data now use NC_SPACE|ND_SPACE_*, instead of data
notifiers or even NC_WINDOW in some cases. Note that NC_SPACE
should only be used for notifying about changes in space data,
we don't want to go back to allqueue(REDRAW..).
Depsgraph
---------
The dependency graph now has a different flush call:
DAG_object_flush_update(scene, ob, flag)
is replaced by:
DAG_id_flush_update(id, flag)
It still works basically the same, one difference is that it now
also accepts object data (e.g. Mesh), again to avoid requiring an
Object to be available. Other ID types will simply do nothing at
the moment.
Docs
----
I made some guidelines for how/when to do which kinds of updates
and notifiers. I can't specify totally exact how to make these
decisions, but these are basically the guidelines I use. So, new
and updated docs are here:
