Revised external multires file saving. Now it is more manual in that you
have to specify where to save it, like an image file, but still saved at
the same time as the .blend. It would ideally be automatic, but this is
difficult to implement, so for now this should at least be more reliable.
Basic definition works like a python operator but you derive from "bpy.types.Macro" instead.
Operators are added to the macro after it has been added with "bpy.ops.add_macro" through the class method "define" which takes an operator id and returns an OperatorMacroType (new RNA type) for which properties can then be defined to be passed to the operator when run.
Example: http://blenderartists.org/~theeth/bf/macro.py
Using this system, it should be easy to add an operator to the console that converts selected lines into a macro or even a more generic record macro system.
2. Add action parameter to Select_All_Toggle operators, rename to Select_All.
Options are Toggle (default), Select, Deselect, Invert (same as select swap). This makes it possible to map separate hotkeys for select all and deselect all.
NOTE for Aligorith: I didn't change animation operators for select_all which already had an Invert operator. These should be fixed eventually.
TODO: a better keymap for specifying zoom in or out mapped to LMB and RMB respectively for zoom to border is required. The current behaviour only allows zoom in...
* Now has documentation links and recent files.
* Click on image or outside splash to make it go away.
* Still has old image, new one will be committed later.
Macros now return finished if at least one operator in the macro finished properly. This is done to correctly insert an undo point.
This means that all the macros that combine with transform (extrude, loopcut, rip, duplicate) will correctly insert an undo step when transform is cancelled.
This may result in cursor being grabbed twice (though we don't have any macro that can do this at the moment). If this is a problem, a check can be added.
Make macros work with more than one modal operator and mix of modal and invoke/exec
As a proof, brought back loopcut + edge slide in a single macro operator called Loopcut and Slide, replacing Loopcut as assigned to Ctrl-R.
* Snapping strips now works with the hotkey Shift-S as in the rest of Blender
* Preview Range works in Sequencer now (the operators for setting, clearing, and also drawing)
* Related to the Preview Range for Sequencer, toggling the time-display mode also works
* Preview Range Set operator now works again, after the modal keymaps change for borderselect broke it. Also sends correct notifiers now after bein called.
- more detailed exceptions (always give file:line incase the python exception doesnt)
- fix some errors in the edit docs
editing docs still fails, need to figure out why.
- split into 2 operators: object.make_links_data() & object.make_links_scene since they are quite different.
- added reusable functions RNA_group_itemf & RNA_scene_itemf which can be used for any operator that takes ID data (easy to add more types Mesh, Text etc)
- DummyRNA_NULL_items for dynamic items so each operator need not define its own empty enum.
- use OBJECT_OT_mode_set rather then OBJECT_OT_*_toggle, better for using report output for script input. OBJECT_OT_posemode_toggle and OBJECT_OT_editmode_toggle are called by OBJECT_OT_mode_set.
Using standard 'save' now pops up a filebrowser when the file hasn't been saved before instead of just assuming that the file should be called "untitled.blend" and dumped in the last used directory.
Auto save is now working again in 2.5. It will also remember now what
the location of the original file was when recovering it, so that
library links still work and saving the restored file does not save to
the temp directory. There is also a new Recover Auto Save operator
which will open the filebrowser in the temp directory and show the
auto saved .blends.
Implemenation Notes:
* Timer storage was moved from window to windowmanager, so we can have
windowmanager level timers too now, doesn't make sense to have
autosave timer attached to a particular window.
* FileGlobal now has a filename field storing where the file was saved.
Note that this is only used when loading a file through the recover
operators, regular file read doesn't use it, so copying the quit.blend
manually over the original file will still work as expected.
* Jobs timer no longer uses operator now, this seems more like an
internal thing, changing keymaps should not make it possible to break
the jobs manager.
* Autosave is postponed by 10 seconds when a modal operator is running,
e.g. transform or file browsing.
* Moved setting G.sce in setup_app_data before depsgraph updates, these
can use the filename for pointcaches.
- Shift+F2 was Export DXF, made Logic Editor
- Shift+F4 was data browser, made console
- Shift+F11 was fullscreen in 2.5, changed fullscreen to Alt+F11
added Area.type so RNA can switch the type.
changed extrude, rip and duplicate to disable proportional editing however this gives a different problem now.
Commented in transform.c
// XXX If modal, save settings back in scene
this changes disables the option whenever the macro used used.
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.
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.
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
- rename WM_OT_ten_timer to WM_OT_redraw_timer
- added iterations argument to run more then 10 times (10 is default still)
- use report api rather then always calling a popup directly.
- added a new test that draws every region without swapping.
- dont show the info popup when operators are called from python.
- operators called from python now print reports, useful with the interactive console.
eg.
>>> bpy.ops.wm.redraw_timer(type='DRAW_WIN', iterations=300)
Info: 300 x Draw Window: 4168.56 ms, average: 13.8952
