Python wasn't able to set 'OperatorType.prop', which is used by uiButGetStrInfo().
add 'bl_property' to python operators which is assigned to OperatorType.prop when registering.
(api docs coming next)
applied to python api and exotic.c, removed some args being passed down which were not needed.
keyword args for new mathutils types were being ignored when they should raise an error.
- operator properties are now converted into python property() class members which bypass the operator 'properties' member.
self.properties.mysetting
... can now be written as ...
self.mysetting
- fix for error reloading rigify
An example of how this is useful - an importer mixin could define the filepath properties and a generic invoke function which can run the subclasses exec for each selected file.
- Panels and Menus now skip the property check when registering.
- renamed _idproperties_ to _idprops_ in function names, function names were getting very long.
written from scratch by Daniel Salazar (zanqdo). added own modifications.
New property type
bpy.props.FloatVectorProperty(), only difference with float is it takes a 'size' argument and optional 'default' sequence of floats.
moved bpy.props.* functions out of bpy_rna.c into their own C file.
this is too arbitrary and could break if roperty order is changed.
store the property in the operator type that is to be used for menu and enum search func's.
python function for searching operator enums on invoke. (just need dynamic python enums now)
wm.invoke_search_popup(self)
bpy.types.register(MacroClass)
instead of
bpy.ops.add_macro(MacroClass)
The rest is unchanged.
Also remove some now unused code for the old registration methods (there's still some remaining).
Basic definition works like a python operator but you derive from "bpy.types.Macro" instead.
Operators are added to the macro after it has been added with "bpy.ops.add_macro" through the class method "define" which takes an operator id and returns an OperatorMacroType (new RNA type) for which properties can then be defined to be passed to the operator when run.
Example: http://blenderartists.org/~theeth/bf/macro.py
Using this system, it should be easy to add an operator to the console that converts selected lines into a macro or even a more generic record macro system.
however this meant the invoke function could not modify properties for exec to use (unless it called exec directly after)
since the popup for eg would re-instance the python class each time.
now use the operator properties directly through rna without an automatic copy.
now an operator attribute is accessed like this...
self.path --> self.properties.path
eg.
scene.objects.link()
object.constraints.new()
mesh.verts.transform(...)
mesh.faces.active
PropertyRNA stores an StructRNA pointer where these can be defined.
- more detailed exceptions (always give file:line incase the python exception doesnt)
- fix some errors in the edit docs
editing docs still fails, need to figure out why.
note that you can still set rna properties like this.
bpy.data.__dict__["var"] = 1
print(bpy.data.var)
but this is only stored for the python objects lifetime and not actually attached to blenders data
