it is now in a state where it can be safely
merged with trunk.
Note: basic icons were provided but I'm not
an icondesigner and working in a 16x15 grid
is way too small for me, so feel free to
change them.
Based on feedback from Ton, I've recoded the way "PoseLibs" are implemented/exposed. Therefore, quite a bit of code has been changed to fit this in better.
Now, ANY ACTION can be a "PoseLib". A set of Markers which belong to the Action (it's taken a year, but they're finally back), are used to tag "poses" in the Action. These markers are shown using diamond-shaped blue icons (designed by Matt Ebb) in three shades - unselected/normal, selected, active.
Notes:
* Each Armature Object has an Action which acts as a PoseLib.
* Improved UI presented in buttons panel for this
-- added proper buttons for action assigning
-- renamed "Validate PoseLib" to "Auto-Sync PoseLib" (this option auto-tags poses based on keyframes found)
Like in the 3d-view, use the hotkeys:
* Shift-L to add a local marker
* Ctrl-Shift-L to rename a local marker
* Alt-L to delete selected local markers
Note: transforms, etc. are not currently available with these markers
== PoseLib Preview ==
Added a few features here:
* Left/Right-Arrow keys now change the poses too (previous and next respectively)
* Up/Down-Arrow keys also change the poses, but "jump" to a pose 5 steps away in their respective directions
Bugfixes:
* "Clear Paths" change from last commit wasn't complete yet. Now it REALLY only clears the paths of the selected bones
* Button layout in "Armature Visualisation" panel has been reorganised a bit to better present the options (clearer separation between Display and Calculation buttons)
New Stuff (Yay!):
* Paths of active bones now draw more visibly than those of unselected bones. This makes it easier to identify the path that is taken by the bone
* The part of path on the current frame is now drawn in green (the same shade that is used for the current-frame line in the Animation Editors). This nicely blends between the black and blue parts of the path (before and after current frame, respectively), and looks much nicer.
* The colour of the current-frame marker in the Animation Editors and the 3D-View, are now theme-colours. This is needed to make the previous option work.
=========
Merge of the famous particle patch by Janne Karhu, a full rewrite
of the Blender particle system. This includes:
- Emitter, Hair and Reactor particle types.
- Newtonian, Keyed and Boids physics.
- Various particle visualisation and rendering types.
- Vertex group and texture control for various properties.
- Interpolated child particles from parents.
- Hair editing with combing, growing, cutting, .. .
- Explode modifier.
- Harmonic, Magnetic fields, and multiple falloff types.
.. and lots of other things, some more info is here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Particles_Rewritehttp://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Particles_Rewrite_Doc
The new particle system cannot be backwards compatible. Old particle
systems are being converted to the new system, but will require
tweaking to get them looking the same as before.
Point Cache
===========
The new system to replace manual baking, based on automatic caching
on disk. This is currently used by softbodies and the particle system.
See the Cache API section on:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/PhysicsSprint
Documentation
=============
These new features still need good docs for the release logs, help
for this is appreciated.
this bug is in 2.45 but can work around by setting it manually
---
import sys as pysys
try:
pysys.modules['__main__'].__arm_weakrefs
except:
pysys.modules['__main__'].__arm_weakrefs = {}

changed how draw modes work - when displaying textured meshes in editmode, only draw selected edges when "Edge Draw" is not enabled. this makes it easy to see the texture/mapping without edges getting in the way.
This means editmode can draw like UV/Face mode did when "Draw Edges" was disabled.
Also made the active vert/edge/face color themeable, still need to set the default to somthing other then pink.
Changed how the sticky setting is stored in DNA - (as a char rather then 2 flags).
replaced the UV/FACE icon with another needed for the sticky menu.
removed 2 unused icons.
commented the UV transform panel since it only had 2 buttons in it.
depgraph update calls needed to be added to Ctrl+V/E/F menu's because some commands were crashing.
Initial commit of imagebrowser in trunk.
BIG COMMIT!
Main changes:
* completely reworked imasel space
* creation and storage of the preview images for materials, textures, world and lamp
* thumbnails of images and movie files when browsing in the file system
* loading previews from external .blend when linking or appending
* thumbnail caching according to the Thumbnail Managing Standard: http://jens.triq.net/thumbnail-spec/
* for now just kept imasel access mostly as old imgbrowser (CTRL+F4, CTRL+F1) a bit hidden still.
* filtering of file types (images, movies, .blend, py,...)
* preliminary managing of bookmarks ('B' button to add, XKEY while bookmark active to delete)
More detailed info which will be updated here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Elubie/PreviewImageBrowser
Places that need special review (and probably fixes):
* BLO_blendhandle_get_previews in readblenentry
* readfile.c: do_version and refactorings of do_library_append
* UI integration
TODO and known issues still:
* Accented characters do not display correctly with international fonts
* Crash was reported when browsing in directory with movie files
* Bookmark management still needs some UI work (second scrollbar?), feedback here is welcome!

Samir Bharadwaj (samirbharadwaj@yahoo.com) for the icon images.
Many thanks to everyone who gave feedback and helped so far!
Added new defines for the icons used to show this, on the request of Matt Ebb. For now, the eye icons have simply been duplicated to the new spaces, but 'more descriptive' icons should be made.
Snap/Grid icon button in 3D view header (edit mesh). FIXME NOTICE: make nice looking icons (yes, that's for you Matt)
When snap is on, a drop down appears for the target method (closest, median, center)
Hotkey to toggle snap is Shift-Tab (this was previously used for a not totally equivalent to Tab. Ton said OK to scrap it). That hotkey is currently restricted to edit mesh (where snap is currently restricted).
Changed a couple of ugliness on how snap settings are stored.
This patch allows icon files (.png) to be loaded into Blender dynamically,
without having to go through the tedious and technical process of compiling
them in. It also makes them part of the theme settings so they can be
attached as part of a theme and saved in the default .B.blend.
Icon files should be stored in $HOME/.blender/icons/ . This really sucks on
Mac since it's hidden in the finder, but it's a separate issue. We need a
better system of finding things like this, python scripts etc, perhaps a
nice wrapped function something like BLI_getresourcedir(), then it's easy to
do platform specific stuff there, like using ~/Library/Application Data on Mac.

This adds the ability to restrict an individual object from:
- being visible in the 3D View
- being selectable in the 3D View
- being renderable
with 3 columns of buttons in the outliner.
These restrictions are further down the hierarchy than layers, so for example if an object is in an invisible layer, it will be invisible regardless of whether the object's own visibility setting is on or off. This works on a different conceptual level than layers, being better for more quick interaction (like temporarily making a mesh unselectable while you're posing its armature), rather than so much for scene organisation.
The 3 columns of icons can be turned off in the Outliner View menu.
Along with this is some small cleaning up in interface_icons.c and outliner.c.
The "generator" class for nodes then better completely disappears, also
from theme color choices menu. Since there was room for it, made the
generator themecolor to become color for 'Convertor' node types.
- restored type choice compatiblity (plane, sphere, cube) with 2.41 release (sorry, will break saved files with CVS... my fault, should
have known.)
- removed lamp choices (lights now are different per preview, no fixed
choices).
- added checkered plane behind the plane preview. nicer for halos.
you can click on the 'Sample' button, to sample any colour on the Blender
screen. This is really useful in the compositor, and would probably be good for
sampling footage in any eventual chroma key nodes that may be made, too.
LMB to pick the colour, ESC or RMB to cancel.
Added patch by Matt Ebb, that enhances the sequencer GUI in several ways:
- It looks a lot better
- Strip colours are themeable.
- The drawing code is more readable.
- The background of the timeline makes now distinguishing the channels easier
by alternating between different shades of gray.
- Handle-scaling is clamped to min and max-values, making it possible to
grab strips at large zooming levels more easily.
- Preview-images can be panned by dragging it with the middle mouse button.
Home-Key resets the position.
- Since some people can't grab the meaning of "C 0", it is renamed to "Chan: 0"
- Effect strips have slightly different colors to distinguish them better.
Additionally:
- fixed an off by one error in Matt's patch
- Scene-rendering saves CFRA to avoid jumping current-scene on scrub
(might be academic fix, since most likely it only happens if you add
the sequencer-scene to the timeline... But nevertheless it bugs you on
testing the GUI ;-)
- New UI element: the "Curve Button".
For mapping ranges (like 0 - 1) to another range, the curve button can be
used for proportional falloff, bone influences, painting density, etc.
Most evident use is of course to map RGB color with curves.
To be able to use it, you have to allocate a CurveMapping struct and pass
this on to the button. The CurveMapping API is in the new C file
blenkernel/intern/colortools.c
It's as simple as calling:
curvemap= curvemapping_add(3, 0, 0, 1, 1)
Which will create 3 curves, and sets a default 0-1 range. The current code
only supports up to 4 curves maximum per mapping struct.
The CurveMap button in Blender than handles allmost all editing.
Evaluating a single channel:
float newvalue= curvemapping_evaluateF(curvemap, 0, oldval);
Where the second argument is the channel index, here 0-1-2 are possible.
Or mapping a vector:
curvemapping_evaluate3F(curvemap, newvec, oldvec);
Optimized versions for byte or short mapping is possible too, not done yet.
In butspace.c I've added a template wrapper for buttons around the curve, to
reveil settings or show tools; check this screenie:
http://www.blender.org/bf/curves.jpg
- Buttons R, G, B: select channel
- icons + and -: zoom in, out
- icon 'wrench': menu with tools, like clear curve, set handle type
- icon 'clipping': menu with clip values, and to dis/enable clipping
- icon 'x': delete selection
In the curve button itself, only LMB clicks are handled (like all UI elements
in Blender).
- click on point: select
- shift+click on point: swap select
- click on point + drag: select point (if not selected) and move it
- click outside point + drag: translate view
- CTRL+click: add new point
- hold SHIFT while dragging to snap to grid
(Yes I know... either one of these can be Blender compliant, not both!)
- if you drag a point exactly on top of another, it merges them
Other fixes:
- Icons now draw using "Safe RasterPos", so they align with pixel boundary.
the old code made ints from the raster pos coordinate, which doesn't work
well for zoom in/out situations
- bug in Node editing: buttons could not get freed, causing in memory error
prints at end of a Blender session. That one was a very simple, but nasty
error causing me all evening last night to find!
(Hint; check diff of editnode.c, where uiDoButtons is called)
Last note: this adds 3 new files in our tree, I did scons, but not MSVC!
**** NEW: Group Nodes
Node trees usually become messy and confusing quickly, so we need
not only a way to collapse Nodes into single 'groups', but also a
way to re-use that data to create libraries of effects.
This has been done by making a new Library data type, the NodeTree.
Everything that has been grouped is stored here, and available for
re-use, appending or linking. These NodeTrees are fully generic,
i.e. can store shader trees, composit trees, and so on. The 'type'
value as stored in the NodeTree will keep track of internal type
definitions and execute/drawing callbacks. Needless to say, re-using
shader trees in a composit tree is a bit useless, and will be
prevented in the browsing code. :)
So; any NodeTree can become a "Goup Node" inside in a NodeTree. This
Group Node then works just like any Node.
To prevent the current code to become too complex, I've disabled
the possibility to insert Groups inside of Groups. That might be
enabled later, but is a real nasty piece of code to get OK.
Since Group Nodes are a dynamic Node type, a lot of work has been
done to ensure Node definitions can be dynamic too, but still allow
to be stored in files, and allow to be verified for type-definition
changes on reloading. This system needs a little bit maturing still,
so the Python gurus should better wait a little bit! (Also for me to
write the definite API docs for it).
What works now:
- Press CTRL+G to create a new Group. The grouping code checks for
impossible selections (like an unselected node between selected nodes).
Everthing that's selected then gets removed from the current tree, and
inserted in a new NodeTree library data block. A Group Node then is
added which links to this new NodeTree.
- Press ALT+G to ungroup. This will not delete the NodeTree library
data, but just duplicate the Group into the current tree.
- Press TAB, or click on the NodeTree icon to edit Groups. Note that
NodeTrees are instances, so editing one Group will also change the
other users.
This also means that when removing nodes in a Group (or hiding sockets
or changing internal links) this is immediately corrected for all users
of this Group, also in other Materials.
- While editing Groups, only the internal Nodes can be edited. A single
click outside of the Group boundary will close this 'edit mode'.
What needs to be done:
- SHIFT+A menu in toolbox style, also including a list of Groups
- Enable the single-user button in the Group Node
- Displaying all (visible) internal group UI elements in the Node Panel
- Enable Library linking and prevent editing of Groups then.
**** NEW: Socket Visibility control
Node types will be generated with a lot of possible inputs or outputs,
and drawing all sockets all the time isn't very useful then.
A new option in the Node header ('plus' icon) allows to either hide all
unused sockets (first keypress) or to reveil them (when there are hidden
sockets, the icon displays black, otherwise it's blended).
Hidden sockets in Nodes also are not exported to a Group, so this way
you can control what options (in/outputs) exactly are available.
To be done:
- a way to hide individual sockets, like with a RMB click on it.
**** NEW: Nodes now render!
This is still quite primitive, more on a level to replace the (now
obsolete and disabled) Material Layers.
What needs to be done:
- make the "Geometry" node work properly, also for AA textures
- make the Texture Node work (does very little at the moment)
- give Material Nodes all inputs as needed (like Map-to Panel)
- find a way to export more data from a Material Node, like the
shadow value, or light intensity only, etc
Very important also to separate from the Material Buttons the
"global" options, like "Ztransp" or "Wire" or "Halo". These can not
be set for each Material-Node individually.
Also note that the Preview Render (Buttons window) now renders a bit
differently. This was a horrid piece of antique code, using a totally
incompatible way of rendering. Target is to fully re-use internal
render code for previews.
OK... that's it mostly. Now test!
********* Node editor work:
- To enable Nodes for Materials, you have to set the "Use Nodes"
button, in the new Material buttons "Nodes" Panel or in header
of the Node editor. Doing this will disable Material-Layers.
- Nodes now execute materials ("shaders"), but still only using the
previewrender code.
- Nodes have (optional) previews for rendered images.
- Node headers allow to hide buttons and/or preview image
- Nodes can be dragged larger/smaller (right-bottom corner)
- Nodes can be hidden (minimized) with hotkey H
- CTRL+click on an Input Socket gives a popup with default values.
- Changing Material/Texture or Mix node will adjust Node title.
- Click-drag outside of a Node changes cursor to "Knife' and allows to
draw a rect where to cut Links.
- Added new node types RGBtoBW, Texture, In/Output, ColorRamp
- Material Nodes have options to ouput diffuse or specular, or to use
a negative normal. The input socket 'Normal' will force the material
to use that normal, otherwise it uses the normal from the Material
that has the node tree.
- When drawing a link between two not-matching sockets, Blender inserts
a converting node (now only for value/rgb combos)
- When drawing a link to an input socket that's already in use, the
old link will either disappear or flip to another unused socket.
- A click on a Material Node will activate it, and show all its settings
in the Material Buttons. Active Material Nodes draw the material icon
in red.
- A click on any node will show its options in the Node Panel in the
Material buttons.
- Multiple Output Nodes can be used, to sample contents of a tree, but
only one Output is the real one, which is indicated in a different
color and red material icon.
- Added ThemeColors for node types
- ALT+C will convert existing Material-Layers to Node... this currently
only adds the material/mix nodes and connects them. Dunno if this is
worth a lot of coding work to make perfect?
- Press C to call another "Solve order", which will show all possible
cyclic conflicts (if there are).
- Technical: nodes now use "Type" structs which define the
structure of nodes and in/output sockets. The Type structs store all
fixed info, callbacks, and allow to reconstruct saved Nodes to match
what is required by Blender.
- Defining (new) nodes now is as simple as filling in a fixed
Type struct, plus code some callbacks. A doc will be made!
- Node preview images are by default float
********* Icon drawing:
- Cleanup of how old icons were implemented in new system, making
them 16x16 too, correctly centered *and* scaled.
- Made drawing Icons use float coordinates
- Moved BIF_calcpreview_image() into interface_icons.c, renamed it
icon_from_image(). Removed a lot of unneeded Imbuf magic here! :)
- Skipped scaling and imbuf copying when icons are OK size
********* Preview render:
- Huge cleanup of code....
- renaming BIF_xxx calls that only were used internally
- BIF_previewrender() now accepts an argument for rendering method,
so it supports icons, buttonwindow previewrender and node editor
- Only a single BIF_preview_changed() call now exists, supporting all
signals as needed for buttos and node editor
********* More stuff:
- glutil.c, glaDrawPixelsSafe() and glaDrawPixelsTex() now accept format
argument for GL_FLOAT rects
- Made the ColorBand become a built-in button for interface.c
Was a load of cleanup work in buttons_shading.c...
- removed a load of unneeded glBlendFunc() calls
- Fixed bug in calculating text length for buttons (ancient!)
- Sunday merger with bf-blender
- Foundations for new Node editor in Blender, generic framework that can
be used for Material/Texture, Compositing, Logic or maybe even Sequencer.
Note: this doesn't do anything yet, nor save! Is just to get this nice
in CVS now. :)
Previous experiment (in 2000) didn't satisfy, it had even some primitive
NLA option in groups... so, cleaned up the old code (removed most) and
integrated it back in a more useful way.
Usage:
- CTRL+G gives menu to add group, add to existing group, or remove from
groups.
- In Object buttons, a new (should become first) Panel was added, showing
not only Object "ID button" and Parent, but also the Groups the Object
Belongs to. These buttons also allow rename, assigning or removing.
- To indicate Objects are grouped, they're drawn in a (not theme yet, so
temporal?) green wire color.
- Use ALT+SHIFT mouse-select to (de)select an entire group
But, the real power of groups is in the following features:
-> Particle Force field and Guide control
In the "Particle Motion" Panel, you can indicate a Group name, this then
limits force fields or guides to members of that Group. (Note that layers
still work on top of that... not sure about that).
-> Light Groups
In the Material "Shaders" Panel, you can indicate a Group name to limit
lighting for the Material to lamps in this group. The Lights in a Group do
need to be 'visible' for the Scene to be rendered (as usual).
-> Group Duplicator
In the Object "Anim" Panel, you can set any Object (use Empty!) to
duplicate an entire Group. It will make copies of all Objects in that Group.
Also works for animated Objects, but it will copy the current positions or
deforms. Control over 'local timing' (so we can do Massive anims!) will be
added later.
(Note; this commit won't render Group duplicators yet, a fix in bf-blender
will enable that, next commit will sync)
-> Library Appending
In the SHIFT-F1 or SHIFT+F4 browsers, you can also find the Groups listed.
By appending or linking the Group itself, and use the Group Duplicator, you
now can animate and position linked Objects. The nice thing is that the
local saved file itself will only store the Group name that was linked, so
on a next file read, the Group Objects will be re-read as stored (changed)
in the Library file.
(Note; current implementation also "gives a base" to linked Group Objects,
to show them as Objects in the current Scene. Need that now for testing
purposes, but probably will be removed later).
-> Outliner
Outliner now shows Groups as optio too, nice to organize your data a bit too!
In General, Groups have a very good potential... for example, it could
become default for MetaBall Objects too (jiri, I can help you later on how
this works). All current 'layer relationships' in Blender should be dropped
in time, I guess...
Textbuttons now allow a selection too (like any textbutton in other UIs).
By default, on activating a textbutton, the entire button text is selected
when you enter the button. A single arrowkey or LMB click reveils the
cursor then. Here's more user notes:
LMB click: If inside the button, places the text cursor at the clicked
position. If outside the button, confirms/finishes editing
LMB drag: Selects the text between the start and end point of the drag.
Backspace: Deletes selected text, or backspaces a character
Shift Backspace: Deletes all, as before.
Delete: Deletes selected text or forward deletes a character
Shift LeftArrow: Extends the selection left
Shift RightArrow: Extends the selection right
LeftArrow: If there's a selection, move the cursor to the left edge of the
selection, otherwise move the cursor left a character.
RightArrow: If there's a selection, move the cursor to the right edge of
the selection, otherwise move the cursor right a character.
UpArrow/Home: Move the cursor to the beginning of the line
DownArrow/End: Move the cursor to the end of the line
Ctrl Left arrow and Ctrl Right arrow to jump between directory separators
This commit is based on the patch & cool design work of Matt. It includes
the new Lamp drawing style, and replaces the Object center dots with a
similar styled OpenGL drawn dot.
Important side-note is that removing the old glDrawPixels() for centers or
lamps will not only make Blender faster, but also prevents crashing on a
couple of cheaper 3d cards (as reported for S3 and Intel on-board cards)
Notes:
- The new default only draws Object centers when selected or active. If
you like to see them always, use the View Properties Panel. You can also
save that in the .B.blend
- The size for centers (and lamps) is in the User settings "View & Controls"
- Unselected Lamps, and their offset lines from zero Z, are drawn in a new
Theme color
Changes and additions in Matt's patch:
- Lamps and centers are drawn fixed size, in pixels. Also the 'sun' lamp
draws screen aligned now.
- Center dots now also draw in blue to denote Library linkage or to show
that an Object has been linked to other scenes.
- When objects are empty (no vertices) they will always draw a center dot.
Otherwise these objects would never be selectable anymore!
- Added theme setting for center size, and initialization
- Removed the old redundant code for drawing centers
- Cleanup of drawing routines, made center dots faster
- Started removing calls to glBlendFunc(). Regular alpha drawing should
become standard, and the (very) occasional exception should return this
to default after usage.
User doc: http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Shape_Keys.678.0.html
- The mixed use of "Vertex Key","Key" or "RVK" in Blender was a bit
confusing. Also a 'vertex key' assumes keys per vertex, which actually is
only a single key for the entire shape. The discussions on blender.org
forums all mentioned "Shape" or "Blend Shapes", which I think is an OK
name for a "Vertex Key" in the UI. :)
- Most work was code spaghetti cleanup. Doing shape-keys now nicely goes
via the depgraph and DerivedMesh. That then allows to have different
shapes per object, with the new "Pin" feature.
Objects now define what Shape is shown (ob->shapenr)
- Added a Shape Panel in the Edit buttons with the various options
- Fixed a lot of issues in the IpoWindow, with drawing the channels.
For example, deleting a key-line there caused the entire Relative option to
go wrong, same for moving the lines up/down.
Changing key-line order now reflects in order of channels. The active
Shape is drawn more clear now too.
- Noticed it doesnt work yet for curves/lattice. Need modifier advise!
Eckhard Jaeger on forums. http://download.blender.org/demo/test/rt9.jpg
Notes;
- made new Armature icon, based on looks of Action icon. Using a Bone icon
for everything was too confusing
- made softbody icon softer... it looked like a water drop, something that
would be better for Fluid stuff later :)
- the Modifier icon itself (wrench) looks a bit too much like a tool... but
its a clear icon that stands out.
- added support for vector icons, from user API side is just like using
a regular icon... on icon side is defined by a function in resources.c
instead of using the blenderbuttons png file. vector icons are much
easier to add and scale properly. intent is that vector icons would
be drawn in window coordinates which lets icon developers make the
most beautiful icons, but this requires some tweaking of the interface
drawing that I am not going to do atm.
- changed BIF_draw_icon* to take coordinates of where to draw icon instead
of using passed in raster position
- switch modifier UI to using vector icons, and tweaked some position and
style stuff.
- replaced most uses of UI_EMBOSSX with UI_EMBOSS (do same thing, just there
to confuse people I guess)
After the window coordinate stuff is sorted out with vector icons
it probably makes sense to move all non-photorealistic icons in blenderbuttons
to vector form just so scaling goes better.
- In Solid drawmode, bones get drawn solid too now. Including Outline-
selection color, if that's set.
Disable it by setting Object-buttons "drawtype" for the Armature.
Color used for solid bones is in Theme editor.
- EditMode armature now follows (Mesh edit) theme colors (Vertex, Edge)
- PoseMode armature has ThemeColor for selection, and draws three extra
colors now;
- blue shade for bones with action Ipos
- yellow for bones with IK
- green for bones with a constraint
- "X ray" now only works for PoseMode... needs review, can be done better
- "Draw Names" option uses theme color too, also indicates selection.
Fixes;
- In Armature EditMode, the deformed Mesh goes to rest-position
- Border select didn't clear 'active' flag in Bones in PoseMode
- Mouse-click select didn't work when a dashed line was close to Bone
alone with the following flags :
-Wall -Wno-char-subscripts -Wno-missing-braces.
the only one still worrying me is in rand.c line 57 :
rand.c:57: integer constant is too large for "long" type
but i have no clue about how correct cross-compiler and 32/64 bits friendly
see also my mail to commiter list for signed/unsigned issues
Patch provided by Ricki Myers. Works quite obvious, see Theme editor too!
Notes about the provided code;
- The default syntax colors were screaming! Toned it down to match the
default dark on lightgrey background better.
- Added: initializing colors in saved themes (usiblender.c)
- The implementation of the button for this option was quite clumsy...
Blender UI options services this a lot easier.
(Same fixed for 'line numbers' option)
- Bracket matching now uses as color a mix of backdrop and the
selected-text color. Noticed my texteditor did it too...
-> I really miss comments in code describing a little bit the thought
process behind the code. Like a short introduction on this feature
in the top of the drawtext.c, little remarks on new functions.
ALso in patch tracker or the mailinglist no docs was mentioned?
-> drawtext.c now gets messy quickly... lack of overview, structure,
and confusing mix of personal coding styles.
For not-active supported code dangerous...
Works nice quick to rotate a group of Objects around a defined center,
without hassle with the 3d cursor. Especially for the 3D Manipulator.
In EditMode/PoseMode this option falls back to "Centroid", as does the
"Individual centers" option already.
