Test this since the popup feels disruptive/flashing when its too large
when set smaller it looks closer to a menu w/ key-accelerators which is
the intention in this case.
It's also more likely the active tool can be placed under the cursor.
In the Python API, any panel becomes a subpanel by setting bl_parent_id
to the name of the parent panel. These subpanels can contain advanced or
less commonly used settings.
Since the viewport header now supports transparency, text on pulldowns
can be hard to read if their color matches the viewport content.
Background is drawn using the 'inner' theme color, that was unused until now.
This currently shows panels that were in the 2.79 3D view toolbar
which are now popovers.
In some cases it's useful for these to stay open.
This commit adds a space type to do this.
Note this is currently empty in object mode.
This commit adds a new menu entry - "Edit Driver" - the RMB menu that
will show a popover panel displaying the settings for the driver you
activated the menu item on. This shows the popover panel defined in
yesterday's commit (GRAPH_PT_drivers_popover).
It is possible to edit the driver settings from this panel now.
However, do be warned that the functionality presented is highly
WIP still. There are some unresolved issues, such as:
- The popover disappears too easily on any mouse movements/clicks
on anything, making the panel less useful right now than it should.
- The layout still needs refining. Currently the layout that's there
is a bit of a placeholder until we can play around with it a bit
more to see/feel what feels good/right or what is too much.
- The "Open Drivers Editor" on the bottom of the panel doesn't work.
There are some tricky context tricky things that need to happen here
to make that case work, since the operator button won't have the necessary
context info.

FIXME: The icons for datablocks may not always be correct. It uses the
innermost struct's icon instead of the datablock's icon - e.g. Bone
vs Object/Armature. But, that may make more sense for users?
This commit adds an operator, "Show Drivers Editor", to the RMB menu when
clicking on properties.
As per T54653, this will open a new Graph Editor instance in a new/separate
window (much like how the User Preferences show up in a popup window now),
and will configure all the relevant panels so that you can see and edit the
driver settings immediately without doing a lot of the view configuration steps
that were previously needed.
When doing so on a property that is driven, the driver/fcurve for that property
will be made active in the editor, ready for you to start editing its settings
without having to hunt it down again first.
When using copy on write, insert keyframe operators were reading from old
bmain data instead of COW data. This meant that inserting keyframes would
often read old/stale data, resulting in invalid keyframes getting created
(e.g. from last transform operation, instead of actual current state).
This commit makes it so that keyframing operators will ask depsgraph for
the evaluated copy of the data, so that it can read values from that. It
introduces a new function - `DEG_get_evaluated_rna_pointer()`, which when
working correctly/fully, should work just like the other `DEG_get_evaluated_*()`
functions, except it lets you pass in an RNA Pointer.
However, currently, this is only done for Pose Bones (as a dirty hack, since this
is an important/pivotal requirement for production) and/or datablock
properties directly (since we can just use the DEG_get_evaluated_id() directly).
on the datablock.
Committing to a branch for now as this all needs more testing. More work to come
later at a more sane time of day!
Experimental support for using popovers like menus,
use this when the user hold the mouse down
(previously this did nothing).
This means turning frequently accessed menu items into
popovers doesn't add more clicks to the existing use case.
