* new icon for split view (at least temporary)
* icon buttons in header rather than popup menus for better efficiency (can easily be changed in python UI script again)
This adds a new presets menu in the splash screen and the Input section of
User Preferences to choose a preset interaction style, consisting of key configurations
and also other user preferences such as select mouse button, view rotation style, etc.
Currently, just 'Blender' and 'Maya' presets are included, hopefully we can have more
presets contributed (and maintained!) by the community.
It's best to keep these presets minimal to avoid too many key conflicts. In the Maya one
I changed the view manipulation key/mouse combos and also the transform
manipulator keys, not much more than that.
To save an interaction preset, open the user preferences Input section, and press the
[ + ] button next to the presets menu. It will save out a .py file containing any edited key
maps and navigation preferences to the presets/interaction folder in your scripts folder.

Part of this commit changes the way that key maps are exported/displayed in
preferences - now partial key configs are allowed. Previously it would export/import the
entire key configuration, regardless of whether individual key maps were edited or not
(which would make them more susceptible to conflicts in unexpected areas).
(note, in blender terminology, a key map is a category of key items, such as
'Object Mode' or 'View 2d'.)
Now, the export and the UI display work in a similar way to how key maps are
processed internally - Locally edited key maps (after pressing the 'Edit' button) are
processed first, falling back to other key maps in the current key config, and then falling
back to the default key config. So it's possible for a key config to only include a few
key maps, and the rest just gets pulled from the default key config. The preferences
UI display works like this too behind the scenes in deciding what to show users,
however using it is just like it was before, the complexity is hidden.
Proxy render size settings is now back. (Maybe still in need of some sensible
icons, though...)
Also: waveform color seperation works in N-keys dialog again.

This adds the waveform monitor and vectorscope to the image editor 'scopes'
region, bringing it inline (plus a bit more) with sequence editor functionality,
and a big step closer to the end goal of unifying the display code for image/
comp/sequence editor. It's non-intrusive, using the same code paths as
the histogram.
There's still room for more tweaks - I modified the original patch, changing
the openGL immediate mode drawing of the waveform display to vertex arrays for
speed optimisation. Xavier can look at doing this for the vectorscope now too.
Thanks very much Xavier!
* Fixed crash with when/after undoing Grease Pencil sketches in the Image Editor. To get this working, I've had to sacrifice the backwards-compat loading for old .blend files from 2.49 which were using the same pointer as the new data (local data vs datablock data). If anyone has any ingenious hacks to fix this, go ahead, but otherwise, some caution is advised here...
* Grease Pencil block used for Image Editor instances can now be changed
* Enabled proper active polls on the advanced 3D-view projection methods for drawing. These are not valid in views other than the 3D-View, and so should not be shown as available for use elsewhere (though may still be shown just so that users know what mode an 'imported' datablock may be using).
* Enabled proper updates for Grease Pencil editing in the Image Editor. Was missing notifiers for this stuff.
* When drawing in the Image Editor with no image active, the system now (quietly) switches to using screen-space 'view' vs 'cursor' space for the strokes, since the previous behaviour was confusing with strokes disappearing after drawing them. IMO this is a much better option than the confusion that occurred before, even though it does change the user's settings under their feet!
* Some cases of struct name being set where it shouldnt have been.
* Spelling: wich --> which
* Copy and initialize uv modifier scale, remove unneeded enum.
* Ability to pin any object into the context.
* Update uv window while transforming (useful when used with UVProject modifier)
* Patch by Wahooney, so new template's are internal text and dont get saved over
by mistake.
* Fix for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=572186
Bug 572186 - [abrt] crash in blender-2.49b-5.fc12: Process
/usr/bin/blender.bin was killed by signal 6 (SIGABRT). Original fix submitted

* [#21816] bpy.data.add_image has stopped working on Windows. moved to
bpy.data.images.load(), missed this call.

mask, also avoid making vertex groups if they will not be filled.
* Add back image pin option in image editor header.
* Fix deep shadow not respecting Cast Buffer Shadows option.
* Tangent space normal map baking should work again now.
* Fix a problem with particle duplis, due to own bugfix for #20350,
the problem for that seems to be in dupliverts, not particles.
* Fix external multires data link getting lost on exiting editmode.

- moved global hide_dot to filelist.
- hiding dot files is now included in the filtering of files, which means that for this directory also doesn't have to be read anymore.
- reverted changes of rev. 27491 and related changes in rev. 27523 in favor of a more general abstraction for the different 'file browser modes' with respect to filtering.
While the folder icon was originally planned when in append/link mode, it's easier to distinguish with a blender icon, so the folder icon is now replaced.
Also fixed issue introduced in rev. 27491 where filter settings were incorrectly set when moving out of .blend file again.
* move own thread handling for thumbnails to WM_jobs
* cleanup of thumbnail creation code
* added function to kill the job, which actually allows thread to terminate gracefully
vc9 projectfiles:
* fixed some missing includes for release target!
Patch by Martin Burbaum (pontiac), with some changes from me
Added access to the View (from patch) and Perspective (additional change) matrices for 3D Regions in RNA.
Also, made these non editable for now (my change), since although users might need to get these matrices to make it easier to determine any projections that may be needed for funky operator drawing-hacks to be done, there is almost certainly no need for changing those matrices...
* Fixed bug with Graph Editor that meant that after switching modes, driver F-Curves would often still be shown black until the curves were edited
* Added notifiers and missing flags for F-Curves and Actions
- In 2.4x, this setting was the lock button in the headers.
- Now, this option can be found in the View menus of all relevant editors
- Basically, this option toggles whether objects (using animation data that's being edited) get updated during animation editor transforms to give realtime feedback on the effects of tweaks.
- By default, this is enabled, since this fits in nicer with 2.5's everything 'live' paradigm. However, it is recommended to disable this on slower computers or when updates for heavy rigs are causing too much workflow lag
- Also, removed some old crufty settings from action editor data
Multiple background images displaying each on a different axis.
Changes made from the original patch.
- Use an enum rather then multiple booleans.
- Reduced the space taken up by the user interface.
- Made the image template compact display not show fields & premul options.
- Added readfile.c lines so old blendfile images are loaded.
- Option to hide BGpic UI (like modifiers & constraints)
- Use the index rather then a bgpic from the context for the remove operator.
note: could be good to use 1 image for both left+right, for eg, but for this to work as intended we would need to add image flipping depending on the axis so left this commented out for now.
* Added a generic 'histogram' ui control, currently available in new image editor
'scopes' region (shortcut P). Shows the histogram of the currently viewed image.
It's a baby step in unifying the functionality and code from the sequence editor,
so eventually we can migrate the sequence preview to the image editor too,
like compositor.
Still a couple of rough edges to tweak, regarding when it updates. Also would
be very nice to have this region as a partially transparent overlapping region...
When 'Only Selected' is ON, or the Active Object is in PoseMode, only the keyframes for the active Object are drawn (*).
Otherwise, the keyframes for the scene (sequence+nodes+world), and the selected Objects (including the Active Object) are drawn.
(*) I've also made some changes here to try and get only the selected bones showing here, but some further changes are still needed for that to be able to work.
---
Also, fixed bug in makesrna caused by missing newlines for error prints. This resulted in all error-output from makesrna appearing on a single line.
* Finished baking code for motion paths, generalising it so that it works for both Objects and Bones.
It is based on the old code for baking bones, although I have modified the updating code to use a more 'correct' method of updating dependencies. However, this may turn out to be too slow, and another API method should be added for that...
* Moved some of the old version-patching code for animviz settings out of the drawing functions, instead doing this on the version patching proper.
* Added RNA support for the new AnimViz types, and included RNA access via their users too. The old settings have still been left in for now, since there are still some things not ready to use yet.
----
* F-Curve's with sample points (i.e. sounds to F-Curves) now perform linear interpolation between sample points instead of using constant interpolation.
Separated preview drawing into own ARegion, this should make using View2D possible
The Sequencer now has three view types: Sequencer, Preview and split Sequencer/Preview.
Changing the preview can be done either by the combobox in the header or toggling through those types with CTRL+TAB.
Notes:
* Icon for split Sequencer/Preview view missing still.
* Naming items in the comboboxes can be improved (just Preview instead of Image Preview?)
Next steps:
* bringing back View2D handling (zoom/pan) for image preview
* experimenting with splitting the Preview ARegion for In/Out editing
* Made the TimeLine current frame indicator get drawn using the standard frame-indicator code. Also, it is now possible to show the frame indicator box beside the line as in the other animation editors, although this is disabled in the timeline due to the closeness of the frame number field.
* Removed some old (unnecessary) code
-> "Continue Physics" option in TimeLine, which is now obsolete with the current physics options. Feel free to restore if this is not the case.
-> Already commented out hacks to create "speed ipo" for curves. There are easy alternatives that are better integrated.
-> Unused init/exit callbacks for scrubbing time, since those were only used to set an obsolete flag for timeline drawing that is now used for the indicator.
* Switched long-keyframe optimisation code to use constants instead of some magic numbers + fancy trickery...
[#20336] Missing notifier - properties view does not update on UV unwrap
[#20337] Shift select is not working in UV-editor island mode
[#20338] Update automatically menu item has strange icon behavior
[#20339] Select all will quit working in UV editor
* Property update functions no longer get context, instead they get only
Main and Scene. The RNA api was intended to be as context-less as
possible, since it doesn't really matter who is changing the property,
everything that uses the property should be updated.
* There's still one exception case that use it now, screen operations
still depend on context too much. It also revealed a few places using
context where they shouldn't.
* Ideally Scene shouldn't be passed, but much of Blender still depends on
it, should be dropped when we try to support multiple scene editing.
Change was planned for a while, but need this now to be able to call
update without a context pointer.
