confusion, grid snap is now the default as it seems to be the most wanted and easy to use mode.
Absolute grid snapping happens in a somewhat generic function 'applyGridAbsolute', which could also be used for objects and other transforms later on. It is conceptually similar to the 'project' snapping
option, in that it calculates a delta vector for each element on top of the overall transform, which places each node on the grid.
Node transform now uses the top-left node corner for TransformData->loc. The transform center is still the average of node centers, so that scaling and rotation works nicely.
snapGrid*** functions have been renamed to snapGridIncrement*** to distinguish better between incremental and absolute grid snapping.
Added two options to a header of FCurve editor:
- Normalize which makes it so every individual
curve is fit into -1..1 space.
- Auto-normalize, which probably is to be called
"Lock" which "locks" curve normalization scale.
This is useful to prevent curves from jumping
around when tweaking it.
It's debatable whether it need to be a button to
normalize curves n purpose only, and it's fully
depends on animator's workflow.
Here during Project Pampa we've got Francesco
who get used to auto-renormalization and Hjalti
who prefers locked behavior.
Docs are to be ready soon by Francesco.
Thanks Brecht for the review!
Remove usages of ANIM_unit_mapping_apply_fcurve in favor of
runtime scale factor apply.
There're still calls to ANIM_nla_mapping_apply_fcurve are
hanging around, they're the next t be cleaned up!
since enough bmesh operations can also take advantage of direct index lookups on verts/edges/faces.
developers note:
- EDBM_index_arrays_init/ensure/free -> BM_mesh_elem_table_ensure/init/free
- EDBM_vert/edge/face_at_index -> BM_vert/edge/face_at_index
- EDBM_uv_element_map_create/free -> BM_uv_element_map_create/free
- ED_uv_element_get -> BM_uv_element_get

Works by adding a flag to transform operators "remove_on_cancel". This is currently only used for node transforms, the idea is that if set, the operator will remove the transformed elements when it is
cancelled. It's not possible to do that in the original NODE_OT_add_node operator, because transform is modal and there is no way of reacting to a cancel outside of the transform itself (previous attempt
used a macro operator, but that also doesn't work because subsequent operators don't get executed if the previous transform cancels).
- array of quats is now aligned with the vertices (over alloc, it simplifies things and removes need to set invalid index values).
- remove visit-bitmap from crazyspace_get_mapped_editverts(). setting coords multiple times isnt bad.
- Do plane re-evaluation only when transform is actually done.
Before this re-evaluation happened on every mouse move.
- Added a flag "Auto Keyframe" for the plane track, which does:
* If Auto Keyframe is enabled, then every manual edit of the
plane will create a new keyframe at current frame and update
plane motion between current frame and previous/next keyframe.
This now also implies blending detected motion with neighbor
keyframes, so there's no jump happening.
No automatic update on manual point tracks edit will happen.
* If auto Keyframe is disabled, then no keyframes are adding
to the plane and every plane tweak will re-evaluate in on
the whole frame range.
In this case manual tweaks to point tracks and re-tracking
them implies plane re-evaluation.
This commit includes all the changes made for plane tracker
in tomato branch.
Movie clip editor changes:
- Artist might create a plane track out of multiple point
tracks which belongs to the same track (minimum amount of
point tracks is 4, maximum is not actually limited).
When new plane track is added, it's getting "tracked"
across all point tracks, which makes it stick to the same
plane point tracks belong to.
- After plane track was added, it need to be manually adjusted
in a way it covers feature one might to mask/replace.
General transform tools (G, R, S) or sliding corners with
a mouse could be sued for this. Plane corner which
corresponds to left bottom image corner has got X/Y axis
on it (red is for X axis, green for Y).
- Re-adjusting plane corners makes plane to be "re-tracked"
for the frames sequence between current frame and next
and previous keyframes.
- Kayframes might be removed from the plane, using Shit-X
(Marker Delete) operator. However, currently manual
re-adjustment or "re-track" trigger is needed.
Compositor changes:
- Added new node called Plane Track Deform.
- User selects which plane track to use (for this he need
to select movie clip datablock, object and track names).
- Node gets an image input, which need to be warped into
the plane.
- Node outputs:
* Input image warped into the plane.
* Plane, rasterized to a mask.
Masking changes:
- Mask points might be parented to a plane track, which
makes this point deforming in a way as if it belongs
to the tracked plane.

This is mine and Keir's holiday code project :)
- add support for using the active point's orientation.
- add support for creating new custom orientations from curves.
- fix error where only the last selected curve handle was taken into account for manipulator orientations.
flush the selection on entering editmode instead (since the selection mode can be changed with another mesh).
is other tools leave the selection incorrectly flushed, those will need to be fixed so transform works as expected.
of the active object in the 3D view. This was due to sharing a global G.moving
flag to indicate that transform is active, now it's only set per transform data
type so different editors don't influence each other.
the distance checks could get into a feedback loop so that the result depended on the order of verts/edges.
now you can randomize vert/edge/faces and get exactly the same results.
also made some internal improvements,
- used fixed sized arrays (no need to realloc).
- use vertex tag flags rather then a visit-hash.
- remove 'tots' array that did nothing (not sure why it was added).
offsets too (like for location)
This is useful in some cases when Copy Rotation constraints would otherwise be
used for this purpose but cannot be used for various reasons. Basically, this
works in practically the same way that the Copy Rotation offsets work, including
the same weirdness that you'll get when trying to manually rotate these in the
3D viewport using "global" space manipulations ("local/normal" spaces though
still seem to work really nicely).
WARNING: this may potentially break old files with transform constraint setups
involving rotation outputs. Please check whether this causes any problems on old
files, and report back if there are any issues.
- give feedback on how many mirror verts succeed/fail (for select mirror, shape key mirror, weight mirror)
... when a mirror failed it was confusing and not obvious what was going on.
- slight change to select mirror, now center vertices will remain selected.
- speedup to EDBM_verts_mirror_cache_begin, cache customdata layer offset.
