- Add blentranslation `BLT_*` module.
- moved & split `BLF_translation.h` into (`BLT_translation.h`, `BLT_lang.h`).
- moved `BLF_*_unifont` functions from `blf_translation.c` to new source file `blf_font_i18n.c`.
Both were maked as temp, but used often.
Now pass uiFontStyle to both, rename UI_draw_string to UI_fontstyle_draw_simple,
since its a variant of UI_fontstyle_draw that skips shadow, align... etc.
Make the UI API more consistent and reduce confusion with some naming.
mainly:
- API function calls
- enum values
some internal static functions have been left for now
Yep, at last it's here!
There are a few minor issues remaining but development can go on in
master after discussion at blender institute.
For full list of features see:

Thanks to Sergey and Campbell for the extensive review and to the
countless artists that have given their input and reported issues during
development.
screen near top of the window.
The code here was not updated for retina / DPI changes yet. The tooltip also
could draw off screen when dragging to a button at the top of the window, now
it places the tooltip lower in such cases.
Offscreen drawing fix is based on patch by Antony Riakiotakis.
- GLSL shader wasn't aware of alpha predivide option,
always assuming alpha is straight. Gave wrong results
when displaying transparent float buffers.
- GLSL display wasn't aware of float buffers with number
of channels different from 4, crashing when trying to
display image with different number of channels.
This required a bit larger changes, namely now it's
possible to pass format (GL_RGB, GL_RGBAm GL_LUMINANCE)
to glaDrawPixelsTex, This also implied adding format to
glaDrawPixelsAuto and modifying all places where this
functions are called.
Now GLSL will handle both 3 and 4 channels buffers,
single channel images are handled by CPU.
- Replaced hack for render result displaying with a bit
different hack.
Namely CPU conversion will happen only during render,
once render is done GLSL would be used for displaying
render result on a screen.
This is so because of the way renderer updates parts
of the image -- it happens without respect to active
render layer in image user. This is harmless because
only display buffer is modifying, but this is tricky
because we don't have original buffer opened during
rendering.
One more related fix here was about when rendering
multiple layers, wrong image would be displaying when
rendering is done. Added a signal to invalidate
display buffer once rendering is done (only happens
when using multiple layers). This solves issue with
wrong buffer stuck on the display when using regular
CPU display space transform and if GLSL is available
it'll make image displayed with a GLSL shader.
- As an additional change, byte buffers now also uses
GLSL display transform.
So now only dutehr and RGB curves are stoppers for
using GLSL for all kind of display transforms.
Zooming in on images in Image window now shows pixels again (was filtered).
Now the glaDrawPixelsTex() and glaDrawPixelsAuto() have an argument to
define if images should zoom in with linear filter, or draw pixels.
* Drag'n'drop translation in Outliner
* "Execute" button in file window
* "Labels" of spacing elements, in multi-column enums
* A glitch with nodes "Value to RGB", they where called "ColorRamp" in node_type_base() call. This is not definitive, though, as it appears that UI node names are determined by this call, while it should be by "defines" in rna_nodetrre_types.h, I guess... Anyway, not good to have such things in two different places!
Also moved default context name under BLF_translation.h, much better to have those all in one place, accessible from whole Blender code!
You now can drop a .blend inside blender window to open it.
Implementation notes:
- Added call to extract icon type for files. Code re-used from
space_file
- External files that get dropped set icon types too.
Drop box polls can check for this.
- Also enabled setting op-context for drop operators, this was
needed to prevent filewindow to open.
Also use const char in many other parts of blenders code.
Currently this gives warnings for setting operator id, label and description since these are an exception and allocated beforehand.
Blender too now! :)
** Drag works as follows:
- drag-able items are defined by the standard interface ui toolkit
- each button can get this feature, via uiButSetDragXXX(but, ...).
There are calls to define drag-able images, ID blocks, RNA paths,
file paths, and so on. By default you drag an icon, exceptionally
an ImBuf
- Drag items are registered centrally in the WM, it allows more drag
items simultaneous too, but not implemented
** Drop works as follows:
- On mouse release, and if drag items exist in the WM, it converts
the mouse event to an EVT_DROP type. This event then gets the full
drag info as customdata
- drop regions are defined with WM_dropbox_add(), similar to keymaps
you can make a "drop map" this way, which become 'drop map handlers'
in the queues.
- next to that the UI kit handles some common button types (like
accepting ID or names) to be catching a drop event too.
- Every "drop box" has two callbacks:
- poll() = check if the event drag data is relevant for this box
- copy() = fill in custom properties in the dropbox to initialize
an operator
- The dropbox handler then calls its standard Operator with its
dropbox properties.
** Currently implemented
Drag items:
- ID icons in browse buttons
- ID icons in context menu of properties region
- ID icons in outliner and rna viewer
- FileBrowser icons
- FileBrowser preview images
Drag-able icons are subtly visualized by making them brighter a bit
on mouse-over. In case the icon is a button or UI element too (most
cases), the drag-able feature will make the item react to
mouse-release instead of mouse-press.
Drop options:
- UI buttons: ID and text buttons (paste name)
- View3d: Object ID drop copies object
- View3d: Material ID drop assigns to object under cursor
- View3d: Image ID drop assigns to object UV texture under cursor
- Sequencer: Path drop will add either Image or Movie strip
- Image window: Path drop will open image
** Drag and drop Notes:
- Dropping into another Blender window (from same application) works
too. I've added code that passes on mousemoves and clicks to other
windows, without activating them though. This does make using multi-window
Blender a bit friendler.
- Dropping a file path to an image, is not the same as dropping an
Image ID... keep this in mind. Sequencer for example wants paths to
be dropped, textures in 3d window wants an Image ID.
- Although drop boxes could be defined via Python, I suggest they're
part of the UI and editor design (= how we want an editor to work), and
not default offered configurable like keymaps.
- At the moment only one item can be dragged at a time. This is for
several reasons.... For one, Blender doesn't have a well defined
uniform way to define "what is selected" (files, outliner items, etc).
Secondly there's potential conflicts on what todo when you drop mixed
drag sets on spots. All undefined stuff... nice for later.
- Example to bypass the above: a collection of images that form a strip,
should be represented in filewindow as a single sequence anyway.
This then will fit well and gets handled neatly by design.
- Another option to check is to allow multiple options per drop... it
could show the operator as a sort of menu, allowing arrow or scrollwheel
to choose. For time being I'd prefer to try to design a singular drop
though, just offer only one drop action per data type on given spots.
- What does work already, but a tad slow, is to use a function that
detects an object (type) under cursor, so a drag item's option can be
further refined (like drop object on object = parent). (disabled)
** More notes
- Added saving for Region layouts (like split points for toolbar)
- Label buttons now handle mouse over
- File list: added full path entry for drop feature.
- Filesel bugfix: wm_operator_exec() got called there and fully handled,
while WM event code tried same. Added new OPERATOR_HANDLED flag for this.
Maybe python needs it too?
- Cocoa: added window move event, so multi-win setups work OK (didnt save).
- Interface_handlers.c: removed win->active
- Severe area copy bug: area handlers were not set to NULL
- Filesel bugfix: next/prev folder list was not copied on area copies
** Leftover todos
- Cocoa windows seem to hang on cases still... needs check
- Cocoa 'draw overlap' swap doesn't work
- Cocoa window loses focus permanently on using Spotlight
(for these reasons, makefile building has Carbon as default atm)
- ListView templates in UI cannot become dragged yet, needs review...
it consists of two overlapping UI elements, preventing handling icon clicks.
- There's already Ghost library code to handle dropping from OS
into Blender window. I've noticed this code is unfinished for Macs, but
seems to be complete for Windows. Needs test... currently, an external
drop event will print in console when succesfully delivered to Blender's WM.
