Implement T66304 as an experimental option,
available under the preferences "Experimental" section.
- When enabled most tools in the 3D view have a gizmo.
- Dragging outside the gizmo uses the 'fallback' tool.
- The fallback tool can be changed or disabled in the tool options
or from a pie menu (Alt-W).
Changing the workspace or mode from one window may need to change the
active tool in another window since two different workspaces
may share an object.
This wasn't working with multiple windows,
WM_toolsystem_do_msg_notify_tag_refresh could use a workspace
from a different window to the screen that owned the area.
Instead of fixing, remove these since they aren't needed anymore
since changing modes now refreshes the tool system.
This makes Shift and Ctrl work properly to extend and subtract selections.
This also moves Cut Links to Ctrl-RMB, which doesn't conflict with the selection tool.
In 2.7x UV sculpt was a kind of sub-mode
(a toggle with it's own key-map & drawing code).
Move this to an operator that uses the tool-system,
this simplifies internal logic, especially brush selection
which now matches sculpt and other paint modes.
- Remove toggle used to enable uv sculpt.
- Expose the brush, which was already used but there was no way to
select different brushes.
- Make UV sculpt use paint paint tool slots
(using brushes how all other paint mode currently do).
- Move UV Sculpt keymap to the tools keymap.
- Remove Q to toggle UV sculpt mode,
S/P/G keys to switch tools.
Prepare for exposing tool registration to the Python API.
- Generated tools can use their own prefix so naming collisions
won't happen between hard coded & generated tools.
- Add-on authors can use the add-on name as a prefix.
Currently the names match, renaming will happen next.
Convention was not to but after discussion on 918941483f we agree its
best to change the convention.
Names now mostly follow RNA.
Some exceptions:
- Use 'nodetrees' instead of 'nodegroups'
since the struct is called NodeTree.
- Use 'gpencils' instead of 'grease_pencil'
since 'gpencil' is a common abbreviation in the C code.
Other exceptions:
- Leave 'wm' as it's a list of one.
- Leave 'ipo' as is for versioning.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
- Key-map items properties now override tool-options
so modifier keys can have different behavior to the default action.
- Box & circle select now have `wait_for_input` properties
instead of detecting this based on selection options being set or not.
This relied on the key-map setting properties which may need to be
initialize from the tool settings.
For users that want the 2.7 LMB keymap behavior, this provides a way of
working without tools interfering. For RMB select this operator is quite
redundant with the Cursor tool, we may have to find a solution for that.
Note that we also might later add transform tweak to the transform tools,
when nothing is selected. But this is important for existing users who
preferred the existing workflow.
Both the active tools and selection are now on LMB, which leads to
various conflicts.
For that reason the LMB keymap now has a couple of differences
compared to before. These changes do not affect the RMB keymap.
* Context Menu: W -> RMB
* Select Tool activate: None -> W
* Set Cursor: RMB -> Shift+RMB
* Loop Select: Alt+LMB -> double click LMB
* Mask Feather Vertex Slide: Shift+RMB -> Ctrl+Shift+RMB
* Node Select: only with LMB now, no RMB
The idea behind the W key Select Tool shortcut is that various
tools can't be combined with selection, unlike the RMB keymap.
So this works as a quick shortcut to drop a tool
and go back to selection.
Tools: set Select Box tool as default, rather than Cursor.
This goes along with coming LMB select keymap changes,
where we want the user to be able to LMB click to select by default,
rather than set the cursor.
The cursor will still be directly setabble with shift+RMB.
