Fix is a bit ugly, but cannot think of another solution for now, at
least this **should** not break anything else.
And now I go find myself a very remote, high and lonely mountain, climb
to its top, roar "I hate proxies!" a few times, and relax hearing the echos...
Naming was confusing, while technically correct -
the result is no scaling (manipulator ignores zoom-level).
Also remove 3D from name since this can be supported for 2D views too.
Changes from custom-manipulator branch.
- use property type definitions.
- add property free callback.
- move properties into the wmManipulator struct (over alloc).
- use array length from property types instead of arg passing.
This makes manipulator access closer to operators,
and allows Python access.
This adds RNA for manipulators, but not Python registration yet.
- Split draw style into 2x settings:
`draw_style` (enum) & `draw_options` (enum-flag)
- Rename wmManipulator.properties -> properties_edit,
Use wmManipulator.properties for ID-properties.
Note that this area of the API will need further work since
manipulators now have 2 kinds of properties & API's to access them.
This avoids having to use manipulator-type specific functions
to set the orientation.
And will make it simpler to access transformation from Python.
Currently the matrix is still used as an offset in places.
Also per-type orientation values still need to be removed.
Instead use generic 'WM_manipulator_new', adding a new 'setup'
callback (like wmManipulatorGroup.setup) used to initialize type vars.
This moves conventions closer to wmOperator and simplifies exposing to
Python.
This is needed so manipulators can tag themselves for removal
without causing problems from freeing data within a callback.
Also use properties within the dial manipulator and fix an error where
removing a wmManipulatorGroupType didn't remove its keymap.
While this is work-in-progress from custom-manipulators branch
its stable so adding into 2.8 so we don't get too much out of sync.
- ManipulatorGroupType's are moved out of the manipulator-map and are now
global (like operators, panels etc) and added into spaces as needed.
Without this all operators that might ever use a manipulator in the 3D
view would be polling the viewport.
- Add optional get/set callbacks for non-RNA properties
Needed so re-usable manipulators can control values that
don't correspond to a single properly or need conversion.
- Fix divide by zero bug in arrow manipulator (when moving zero pixels).
There is no reason to be special for workspace and go against other design
decision in Blender. If something like this is going to become a common
practice in Blender it should be well thought and well tested, including
tests of all supported compilers and configurations.
This feature was relying on type re-definition, which is not only confusing
but also available in C11 only.
Sync with custom-manipulators branch
- Use identifiers for properties.
- Property array index access.
- Remove operator from manipulators
(wasn't used and will likely add in a different way).
As with operators, the window-manager has the API for defining,
the editor can implement and register its own manipulators.
This exposes wmManipulator, keeping it opaque isn't
practical if editors and Python are to implement their own.
- Move callbacks into type struct.
- Rename render_3d_intersection -> draw_select.
- Add header for function signatures (needed for types and api headers).
- Add WM_manipulatormaptype_find
This commit does the main integration of workspaces, which is a design we agreed on during the 2.8 UI workshop (see https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.8/UI/Workshop_Writeup)
Workspaces should generally be stable, I'm not aware of any remaining bugs (or I've forgotten them :) ). If you find any, let me know!
(Exception: mode switching button might get out of sync with actual mode in some cases, would consider that a limitation/ToDo. Needs to be resolved at some point.)
== Main Changes/Features
* Introduces the new Workspaces as data-blocks.
* Allow storing a number of custom workspaces as part of the user configuration. Needs further work to allow adding and deleting individual workspaces.
* Bundle a default workspace configuration with Blender (current screen-layouts converted to workspaces).
* Pressing button to add a workspace spawns a menu to select between "Duplicate Current" and the workspaces from the user configuration. If no workspaces are stored in the user configuration, the default workspaces are listed instead.
* Store screen-layouts (`bScreen`) per workspace.
* Store an active screen-layout per workspace. Changing the workspace will enable this layout.
* Store active mode in workspace. Changing the workspace will also enter the mode of the new workspace. (Note that we still store the active mode in the object, moving this completely to workspaces is a separate project.)
* Store an active render layer per workspace.
* Moved mode switch from 3D View header to Info Editor header.
* Store active scene in window (not directly workspace related, but overlaps quite a bit).
* Removed 'Use Global Scene' User Preference option.
* Compatibility with old files - a new workspace is created for every screen-layout of old files. Old Blender versions should be able to read files saved with workspace support as well.
* Default .blend only contains one workspace ("General").
* Support appending workspaces.
Opening files without UI and commandline rendering should work fine.
Note that the UI is temporary! We plan to introduce a new global topbar
that contains the workspace options and tabs for switching workspaces.
== Technical Notes
* Workspaces are data-blocks.
* Adding and removing `bScreen`s should be done through `ED_workspace_layout` API now.
* A workspace can be active in multiple windows at the same time.
* The mode menu (which is now in the Info Editor header) doesn't display "Grease Pencil Edit" mode anymore since its availability depends on the active editor. Will be fixed by making Grease Pencil an own object type (as planned).
* The button to change the active workspace object mode may get out of sync with the mode of the active object. Will either be resolved by moving mode out of object data, or we'll disable workspace modes again (there's a `#define USE_WORKSPACE_MODE` for that).
* Screen-layouts (`bScreen`) are IDs and thus stored in a main list-base. Had to add a wrapper `WorkSpaceLayout` so we can store them in a list-base within workspaces, too. On the long run we could completely replace `bScreen` by workspace structs.
* `WorkSpace` types use some special compiler trickery to allow marking structs and struct members as private. BKE_workspace API should be used for accessing those.
* Added scene operators `SCENE_OT_`. Was previously done through screen operators.
== BPY API Changes
* Removed `Screen.scene`, added `Window.scene`
* Removed `UserPreferencesView.use_global_scene`
* Added `Context.workspace`, `Window.workspace` and `BlendData.workspaces`
* Added `bpy.types.WorkSpace` containing `screens`, `object_mode` and `render_layer`
* Added Screen.layout_name for the layout name that'll be displayed in the UI (may differ from internal name)
== What's left?
* There are a few open design questions (T50521). We should find the needed answers and implement them.
* Allow adding and removing individual workspaces from workspace configuration (needs UI design).
* Get the override system ready and support overrides per workspace.
* Support custom UI setups as part of workspaces (hidden panels, hidden buttons, customizable toolbars, etc).
* Allow enabling add-ons per workspace.
* Support custom workspace keymaps.
* Remove special exception for workspaces in linking code (so they're always appended, never linked). Depends on a few things, so best to solve later.
* Get the topbar done.
* Workspaces need a proper icon, current one is just a placeholder :)
