The png file containing the icons, 'blenderbuttons', was updated to contain
these new icons. It now also contains the icons from the 2.30 ui makeover.
The file had not been updated since then.
[SCons] Build with Solid as default when enabling the gameengine in the build process
[SCons] Build solid and qhull from the extern directory and link statically against them
That was about it.
There are a few things that needs double checking:
* Makefiles
* Projectfiles
* All the other systems than Linux and Windows on which the build (with scons) has been successfully tested.
(related to rounded theme)
- layer buttons in view3d header grouped
- outline colour now blends darker with respect to background (better
visibility on dark backgrounds)
- added some align calls to user settings menu
Now back to real bugs!
Aim was to find a simple & easy system, script alike, to add and configure
a toolbox system, so that others can experiment, but also of course Python.
Summary:
- spacebar calls it up. SHIFT+A still does old toolbox
- hold left or rightmouse for 0.4 second, and it pops up as well
this is experimental! Can be tweaked with Userdef var "ThresA"
- it is a little bit complete for Object mode only. Needs still work
at information desing/structure level
- the code works like an engine, interpreting structs like this:
static TBitem addmenu_curve[]= {
{ 0, "Bezier Curve", 0, NULL},
{ 0, "Bezier Circle", 1, NULL},
{ 0, "NURBS Curve", 2, NULL},
{ 0, "NURBS Circle", 3, NULL},
{ 0, "Path", 4, NULL},
{ -1, "", 0, do_info_add_curvemenu}};
- first value is ICON code,
- then name
- return value
- pointer to optional child
last row has -1 to indicate its the last...
plus a callback to event function.
I also built an old toolbox style callback for this:
static TBitem tb_object_select[]= {
{ 0, "Border Select|B", 'b', NULL},
{ 0, "(De)select All|A", 'a', NULL},
{ 0, "Linked...|Shift L", 'L', NULL},
{ 0, "Grouped...|Shift G", 'G', NULL},
{ -1, "", 0, tb_do_hotkey}};
here the return values are put back as hotkeys in mainqueue.
A mainloop can do all context switching, and build menus on the fly.
Meaning, it also allows other designs such as radials...
- changed the BIF_DrawString() function. it used to work different for
AA fonts as for default fonts. Now it's identical. Setting color for fonts
can just be done with OpenGL, for both font types.
Removed: BIF_DrawStringRGB()
- added theme color options for Buttons
- recoded DefButton, so it automatically chooses the right color.
- had to remove a 1000 uiBlockSetCol() calls for that reason...
- uiBlockSetCol() still works, to override automatic color
- removed entirely the silly old color system (BIFColorID). All color
calls can now be done with a BIF_ThemeColor() call, including fonts and
buttons and opengl stuff
- all buttons in button header have headercolor by default
- recoded drawing icons, it was a really bad & old loop doing manually
colorshading and blending... which was per pixel a load of code!
Now it uses a single OpenGL call to blend or colorize. Quite faster!
- (as test, for review) icons don't colorize anymore with button color,
but have a different alpha to blend in (when not active)
- recoded the entire interface_draw.c file...:
- drawing buttons is separated in three parts:
1. main drawing function for text and icons
2. free definable callback for button itself
3. free definable callback for slider
- removed a load of redundant code for this!
- coded a minimal theme, and adjusted Matt's buttons to match new
callback system
- adding new drawing themes is piece of cake now
- for coders, default 'themes' to be aware of:
UI_EMBOSS : the themable drawing style
UI_EMBOSSP: the pulldown menu system (apart from color not themable)
UI_EMBOSSN: draw nothing, only text and/or icon
UI_EMBOSSM: minimal theme, still in use for Logic and Constraintsa
this can be set with uiBlockSetEmboss(block) or in the uiNewBlock() call.
TODO: make UI API call for button alignment
(plus removed another series of warnings from code...)
Plus: fixed bug in Matts commit: he used a 'short' button for an 'int'
like: BIF_ThemeColor(TH_GRID); will be sufficient. Blender does the rest.
- fixed bug in CTRL-X (reload home file) with themes
- fixed bug in horizontal alignment of different height panels. Seems also
to solve the drawing error with constraints...
- made grid drawing using the main theme color
- was annoyed with the primitive grid... so coded something that allows
zooming in and out a 100fold without losing gridlines
- brought back 'NKEY' for mesh editmode
- added to this a 'median' option; when more vertices selected you see
the average coordinate. works nice when inputting values as well
(todo: make this for other editmodes)
- renamed the 'NKEY' panel to 'Transform Properties', also fixed in
pulldown menu.
I am off for the rest of the day. More committing fun tomorrow!
-Ton-
- currently only implemented for 3d window
- create as many themes you like, and name them
- default theme is not editable, and always will be defined at startup
(initTheme)
- saves in .B.blend
- themes for spaces can become local too, so you can set individual
3d windows at theme 'Maya' or so. (to be implemented)
- it uses alpha as well...!
API:
This doesnt use the old method with BFCOLORID blahblah. The API is copied
from OpenGL conventions (naming) as much as possible:
- void BIF_ThemeColor(ScrArea *sa, int colorid)
sets a color... id's are in BIF_resources.h (TH_GRID, TH_WIRE, etc)
- void BIF_ThemeColorShade(ScrArea *sa, int colorid, int offset)
sets a color with offset, no more weird COLORSHADE_LGREY stuff
- void BIF_GetThemeColor3fv(ScrArea *sa, int colorid, float *col)
like opengl, this gives you in *col the three rgb values
- void BIF_GetThemeColor4ubv(ScrArea *sa, int colorid, char *col)
or the one to get 4 bytes
ThemeColor calls for globals (UI etc) can also call NULL for *sa... this
is to be implemented still.
Next step: cleaning up interface.c for all weird colorcalls.
- automatic pulldown opening can now be controlled ( user setting?)
it has two thresholds:
- when no menu was opened before, it waits A milliseconds
- when (in the same block a menu was opened, it waits B millisec.
Currently A= 0.4 sec, B= 0.1 (or so)
- 3d window header; brought back old drawtype menu (test, compare!)
- another test: the old menubutton doesnt work anymore with hold-mouse
only, you can also use it as the other popups (old method still works)
- proposal; all buttons that pop up a block, get special drawtype (arrows)
this is part 1 of the UI makeover. It has:
- menu system from Matt integrated
- buttons drawing from Matt
- generic button panel system implemented
- converted displaybuttons (not the rest yet)
- cleaned up a lot in drawing spaces itself, to make it aligned and pixel exact.
- cleaned loads of little compiler warnings, protos...
still a lot of work needed, will all be in next week i hope!
(warn: 2 new c files! butspace.c and buttons_scene.c)
(adding)
#ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H
#include <config.h>
#endif
also the Makefile.in's were from previous patch adding
the system depend stuff to configure.ac
