Added activeGroup attribute to Mesh API, to get/set active vertex group for
meshes.

7fd0e22f1e Bugfix #4055: the "sel" attributes for faces/edges/verts were basically
oblivious of each other, so setting/clearing the face edit mode select status
did not set/clear the corresponding vertex select statuses.  This patch makes
a change of any select status recalculate the selection state of all edges an
faces.  One unresolved issue is what effect this should have on the recent
edge mesh's stored selection.  Currently changing the selection state will
delete store selection info, but it may be desirable to emulate the stored
selection (but I need to discuss how this should work in more depth with
Geoffrey Bantle).

As an added bonus (while I was messing with this), I added a "sel" attribute
to edges so they are the same as faces and vert.

A bug fix and an enhancement:
   * fixed bug when adding or deleting faces from a mesh which has
     vertexColors; mesh->mcol was not being updated
   * changed edges.extend() and faces.extend() to accept integer vertex
     indices in addition to MVerts; this should make scripts simpler and
     in general make things run faster

Taking a hint from Hos, started adding some (hopefully) better examples into
the documentation for creating and manipulating meshes.

Three more changes for the Mesh module:
(1) Bug fix for UV vertices ("sticky").  me->msticky was not being updated
   when vertices were added or deleted from the mesh.
(2) Vertex, edge and face .extend() methods accept zero-length sequences
   instead of throwing an exception.  (Note that not giving any argument
   is still an error).
(3) Edge and face .extend() methods ignore "invalid" edges or faces which
   have the same vertex twice instead of throwing an exception.  Cam and I
   argued about this for a while... :-)

8c333c63a4 Previous commit broke faces.extend() and edges.extend() for single edges
and faces.

e66b5e5cd5 UV Editor Tweaks:
- Set local sticky in the uv editor as default.
- Don't do live unwrap on fully selected charts or charts with no pins
  selected.
- Fixed bug with live unwrap not respecting transform cancel in some cases.
- "View Home" didn't work without an image.
- Move UV Calculation settings (cube size, cylinder radius, ..) into the scene
  toolsettings, instead of global variables
- Remove the name LSCM from the UI (and python docs on seams), and replace it
  with 'Unwrap', with upcoming ABF this didn't make sense anymore.
- Move the Old/New LSCM switch into the UV Calculation panel. New LSCM is the
  default now. Also renamed LSCM there to "Conformal".
- Made some room in the UV Calculation panel by removing the buttons to execute
  the UV calculation, only leaving the settings.

Fill Holes:

- LSCM now has an option to fill holes in the chart before unwrapping. This on
  by default, and enables two things:
  - Prevent internal overlaps (e.g. eyes, mouth) for LSCM unwrapping.
  - Allow the internal boundaries to move freely during stretch minimize.
- The possibility to switch it off is there because it is not always possible
  to define which the outer boundary is. For example with an open cylinder
  where there are two identical holes.

Bugfix #3660:  NMesh.getVertexInfluences() was broken following the changes
to the armature system.  Tron Thomas (kudos) came up with a fix that seems
to perform identically to the old method.  I'm also adding it to the Mesh
module for compatibility.

Bugfix #3761: Attempting to set mesh.faceUV=1 when a mesh has no faces
now throws a RuntimeError exception.  Previous behavior was to do nothing.

Added Mesh.Modes() function, which allows scripts to get/set the selection
mode settings for meshes.  This was necessary in order for the mesh tools
such as triangulate, remove doubles, etc., to work properly.

0ee5c131dc A few Mesh fixes:
* edge and face extend() methods now add edges and faces in the order given
  by their parameters.  Note that if duplicate edges or faces are specified,
  the order is preserved but the dups are removed, so indices won't match.
* allow extend(), findEdges() and faces.uv to accept lists or tuples
* fix bug in mesh.verts.extend() which didn't correctly check argument types

a86b0af575 -- added an optional "cage" parameter to mesh.getFromObject() to allow
getting cage vertices from geometry objects
2005-11-20 01:07:54 +00:00
4ea1c4dc60 * update to python docs
- update for the old mathutils rewrite
- update for some other methods ive added
- added explaination of wrapped data
- added a .css file for epydoc gives nice blender/python colors :?

1ba15893bd -- changes and bugfixes from Cam:
-- calling mesh.getFromObject(obj) with mesh object now also
     copies material properties
  -- mesh.quadToTriangle() takes a parameter to duplicate both
     Ctrl-TKEY and Shift-Ctrl-TKEY actions
  -- assigning None to mesh.verts "clears" the memory allocated
     to the mesh (equivalent of Mesh.New(), but on an existing
     mesh)
  -- exception handler message for mesh.faces[i].uv = [..] more
     clear (uv attribute only accepts tuple, not list)
  -- fixed bug for meshs with deformed verts when deleting verts
     (deformed verts deleted and repacked correctly now, I think)

a9a545d784 Lots of BPy Mesh additions:
- added faces.uvSel attribute: can get/set selection status of UV vertices in
  UV Editor window
- make mesh.faceUV, mesh.vertexUV and mesh.vertexColor writable: users
  can now enable/disable UV faces, vertex colors, "sticky" vertices
- fixed bug with mesh tool methods: before it would only work if an object
  linked to the mesh was selected
- added mesh.quadToTriangle() and mesh.triangleToQuad() methods
- added selected() method to verts, edges, faces; returns list of indices
  of selected items
- mesh.getFromObject() now gets derived mesh data
- ported vertex group methods from NMesh (required change to Object.c)
- ported module dictionaries from NMesh

233ee5adb7 - documentation updates:

5380db502e - added Mesh.MVert(); can now create 'thick' vertices which don't wrap mesh
- implemented slice operations (get/set) for vertex list; allows script
  writers to manipulate lists of vertices (using 'thick' vertices)
- fixed problem in mesh.faces.extend() which allowed the creation of
  "Eeekadoodle" faces
- added mesh.update() method; (possibly) temporary fix to allow updating DAG

Changed Object.getData() to allow retrieving both types of BPython-type meshes

Added new mesh types to Types module
