* Convert all code to use new functions.
* Branch maintainers may want to skip this commit, and run this
conversion script instead, if they use a lot of math functions
in new code:
http://www.pasteall.org/9052/python
Still a few quirks, including redraw issues on multilayer image input nodes, but it's pretty much there.
Would also be good to wrap the input/output sockets, too, will check on it.
This fixes bug [#19740] INPUT NODE: Cannot load images / motion pictures
belongs here still, but this came up often, it avoids having to
switch tabs a lot when creating things.
Also renamed uiLayoutFreeBlock to uiLayoutAbsoluteBlock.
Keymaps are now saveable and configurable from the user preferences, note
that editing one item in a keymap means the whole keymap is now defined by
the user and will not be updated by Blender, an option for syncing might be
added later. The outliner interface is still there, but I will probably
remove it.
There's actually 3 levels now:
* Default builtin key configuration.
* Key configuration loaded from .py file, for configs like Blender 2.4x
or other 3D applications.
* Keymaps edited by the user and saved in .B.blend. These can be saved
to .py files as well to make creating distributable configurations
easier.
Also, user preferences sections were reorganized a bit, now there is:
Interface, Editing, Input, Files and System.
Implementation notes:
* wmKeyConfig was added which represents a key configuration containing
keymaps.
* wmKeymapItem was renamed to wmKeyMapItem for consistency with wmKeyMap.
* Modal maps are not wrapped yet.
* User preferences DNA file reading did not support newdataadr() yet,
added this now for reading keymaps.
* Key configuration related settings are now RNA wrapped.
* is_property_set and is_property_hidden python methods were added.
* Compo node backdrop works again.
* Compo node previews and backdrop now get correct color management
float to byte conversion.
* Compo nodes got unecessarily recalculated while moving nodes.
* Fix compo node viewer nodes not getting activated correctly.
* Main compo node preview render computations are now outside of
mutex lock, so better for multithreading.
* Tex node outputs did not work in some files loaded from 2.4.
* Change RNA updates to take into account groups that may be shared
between multiple node trees.
Selecting a material in the node tree sets this as the active material and the buttons view redraws.
Added rna prop material.active_node_material
Currently its not clear what settings are used by the node material and the base material (needs some tedious research) so I made most panels use the node material with the exceptions of volumetrics, physics and halo settings.
We'll probably need to split the panels up to do this properly.
This calls a registered menu as a popup so we can reuse header menus , currently used for Node editor and Sequencer add menu (Shift+A), can be used for toolbox too.
Since bli_threads.h now includes pthreads directly, we need to had instructions in SConscripts everywhere for proper include path.
Frankly, I feel like this should be done in a global manner and not in a per lib fashion, but that is for another day.
This commit also fixes more missing properties
* Rendering twice or more could crash layer/pass buttons.
* Compositing would crash while drawing the image.
* Rendering animations could also crash drawing the image.
* Compositing could crash
* Starting to rendering while preview render / compo was
still running could crash.
* Exiting while rendering an animation would not abort the
renderer properly, making Blender seemingly freeze.
* Fixes theoretically possible issue with setting malloc
lock with nested threads.
* Drawing previews inside nodes could crash when those nodes
were being rendered at the same time.
There's more crashes, manipulating the scene data or undo can
still crash, this commit only focuses on making sure the image
buffer and render result access is thread safe.
Implementation:
* Rather than assuming the render result does not get freed
during render, which seems to be quite difficult to do given
that e.g. the compositor is allowed to change the size of
the buffer or output different passes, the render result is
now protected with a read/write mutex.
* The read/write mutex allows multiple readers (and pixel
writers) at the same time, but only allows one writer to
manipulate the data structure.
* Added BKE_image_acquire_ibuf/BKE_image_release_ibuf to access
images being rendered, cases where this is not needed (most
code) can still use BKE_image_get_ibuf.
* The job manager now allows only one rendering job at the same
time, rather than the G.rendering check which was not reliable.
Editors Modules
* render/ module added in editors, moved the preview render code there and
also shading related operators.
* physics/ module made more consistent with other modules. renaming files,
making a single physics_ops.c for operators and keymaps. Also move all
particle related operators here now.
* space_buttons/ now should have only operators relevant to the buttons
specificially.
Updates & Notifiers
* Material/Texture/World/Lamp can now be passed to DAG_id_flush_update,
which will go back to a callback in editors. Eventually these should
be in the depsgraph itself, but for now this gives a unified call for
doing updates.
* GLSL materials are now refreshed on changes. There's still various
cases missing,
* Preview icons now hook into this system, solving various update cases
that were missed before.
* Also fixes issue in my last commit, where some preview would not render,
problem is avoided in the new system.
Icon Rendering
* On systems with support for non-power of two textures, an OpenGL texture
is now used instead of glDrawPixels. This avoids problems with icons get
clipped on region borders. On my Linux desktop, this gives an 1.1x speedup,
and on my Mac laptop a 2.3x speedup overall in redrawing the full window,
with the default setup. The glDrawPixels implementation on Mac seems to
have a lot of overhread.
* Preview icons are now drawn using proper premul alpha, and never faded so
you can see them clearly.
* Also tried to fix issue with texture node preview rendering, globals can't
be used with threads reliably.
With mouse events event->val started as 0/1 for press/release but later the tweak function made LMB and RMB zero value into KM_RELEASE, somehow MMB didnt get used by the tweak function so was left at 0 and the modal keymap function failed when comparing MMB Mouse ups.
now initialize event->val as KM_PRESS/KM_RELEASE
* Wrapped Color Key and Blur Node.
* Nodes using RNA properties can be animated. You can now choose if the Nodes Window should be updated while animation playback too. (Timeline>Playback Menu)
issues like Shift+R (repeat last) not giving capital R in the text
editor. There is also new modal handler list at the window level,
and the API call will always add it to that one now, since modal
handlers were not used in other levels.
The order used to be:
* window modal + keymap
* area modal + keymap
* region modal + keymap
Now it is:
* window modal
* region keymap
* area keymap
* window keymap
their handlers based on notifiers, which is simpler and more
reliable.
This fixes for example editmode or uv edit keymaps not working
when creating a new 3dview or image space.
* Node buttons can now use the layout engine. a few simple
ones are converted. We'll keep this code in C for now,
python wouldn't help much here.
* For node buttons not using the layout engine, manually
computing the button height is not longer needed.
* Node inputs are still not RNA wrapped, would be good to
have these available as well for keying, but makesrna does
not have access to the bNodeTypes.
- povray converts curves to meshes on export, (metaballs don't need meshing).
- use 'extend' bool rather then 'seltype' enum for object_select operators for consistency.
*Cleaned up Transform panel in n-key area. It's now single column so that this view can be nice and slim, while you can still access everything.
This is especially important in edit mode where you cannot change the transform values numerically from the Properties.
Transform properties don't seem to work for Metaball edit yet, so wasn't able to test this
*Removed some lingering tools in curve transform and put them in the toolbar instead.
*Improved alignment in toolbar
*Made Image Properties use regular checkmark toggle buttons
*Added Delete as an alternative to X key, as it was in 2.4x
Added RGB space distance matte Node
Added HSV color matte Node
Fixed Image difference matte Node to use image differences instead of RGB space distance
Fixed luminance node for low end values being read wrong
Fixed CMP_util copy/swap functions not accounting for all channels
Fixed UI for difference matte Node
Added RNA for new nodes
* Made sure that nodes have a working 'path' function (needed for any tools that will resolve paths needed for animating properties)
* Replaced all the UI button controls for a single node (Vector Blur) with relevant RNA buttons which can be animated. There are probably some even nicer ways to do this (i.e. using layout engine for drawing all sets of buttons), though this is the easiest way forward in the immediate future.
Anyways, if people are interested in getting this working, they will need to spend time to replace all the necessary button calls :)
