Ton Roosendaal c1a4e42a75 Orange; another node update for reviewing.
Material Nodes now have input sockets, to override the actual Material
settings. If socket has no input, you can also edit Material settings here.
(Color picker, number slider).

Of course a load of options will become available here, first bugfixing!
(Oh, and enable fix thread render)

Ton Roosendaal d921d6be6f Orange: daily noodle updates;
- Texture Node: now displays 'intensity values' in node too, and has input,
  and shows in buttons when activated in Node editor. (no browsing buttons
  yet...)

- New: "Normal Node". This uses a new UI button, which allows to quickly
  input a normal vector, based on spherical coordinates.
  The Normal Node has optional vector input, and delivers a dot product
  then. This can be used as a blending factor between nodes, or for fake
  extra light in a certain direction.

- New: "Geometry Node". This actually replaces the Input node. It offers
  all coordinates (vectors) as being the starting point for shading and
  for textures. Note: for preview render this doesn't give much different
  results yet... this is the start for real render support!

  The two new nodes in action

- Bugfix: the "Block" button (which delivers popups) did not return a
  correct event when nothing happened (mouse moved out), which could
  cause mouse clicks to be passed on to the queue.

Ton Roosendaal 8d35213990 More node goodies!
First note; this is a WIP project, some commits might change things that
make formerly saved situations not to work identically... like now!

------ New Material integration ------

Until now, the Node system worked on top of the 'current' Material, just
like how the Material Layers worked. That's quite confusing in practice,
especially to see what Material is a Node, or what is the "base material"

Best solution is to completely separate the two. This has been implemented
as follows now;

- The confusing "Input" node has been removed.
- When choosing a Material in Blender, you can define this Material to be
  either 'normal' (default) or be the root of a Node tree.
- If a Material is a Node tree, you have to add Nodes in the tree to see
  something happen. An empty Node tree doesn't do anything (black).
- If a Material is a Node Tree, the 'data browse' menus show it with an
  'N' mark before the name. The 'data block' buttons display it with the
  suffix 'NT' (instead of 'MA').
- In a Node Tree, any Material can be inserted, including itself. Only in
  that case the Material is being used itself for shading.

UI changes:

Added a new Panel "Links", which shows:
- where the Material is linked to (Object, Mesh, etc)
- if the Material is a NodeTree or not
- the actual active Material in the Tree

The "Node" Panel itself now only shows buttons from the other nodes, when
they are active.

Further the Material Nodes themselves allow browsing and renaming or adding
new Materials now too.

Second half of today's work was cleaning up selection when the Nodes
overlap... it was possible to drag links from invisible sockets, or click
headers for invisible nodes, etc. This because the mouse input code was
not checking for visibility yet.
Works now even for buttons. :)

Ton Roosendaal 9df1460777 Christmas coding work!
********* Node editor work:

- To enable Nodes for Materials, you have to set the "Use Nodes"
  button, in the new Material buttons "Nodes" Panel or in header
  of the Node editor. Doing this will disable Material-Layers.

- Nodes now execute materials ("shaders"), but still only using the
  previewrender code.

- Nodes have (optional) previews for rendered images.

- Node headers allow to hide buttons and/or preview image

- Nodes can be dragged larger/smaller (right-bottom corner)

- Nodes can be hidden (minimized) with hotkey H

- CTRL+click on an Input Socket gives a popup with default values.

- Changing Material/Texture or Mix node will adjust Node title.

- Click-drag outside of a Node changes cursor to "Knife' and allows to
  draw a rect where to cut Links.

- Added new node types RGBtoBW, Texture, In/Output, ColorRamp

- Material Nodes have options to ouput diffuse or specular, or to use
  a negative normal. The input socket 'Normal' will force the material
  to use that normal, otherwise it uses the normal from the Material
  that has the node tree.

- When drawing a link between two not-matching sockets, Blender inserts
  a converting node (now only for value/rgb combos)

- When drawing a link to an input socket that's already in use, the
  old link will either disappear or flip to another unused socket.

- A click on a Material Node will activate it, and show all its settings
  in the Material Buttons. Active Material Nodes draw the material icon
  in red.

- A click on any node will show its options in the Node Panel in the
  Material buttons.

- Multiple Output Nodes can be used, to sample contents of a tree, but
  only one Output is the real one, which is indicated in a different
  color and red material icon.

- Added ThemeColors for node types

- ALT+C will convert existing Material-Layers to Node... this currently
  only adds the material/mix nodes and connects them. Dunno if this is
  worth a lot of coding work to make perfect?

- Press C to call another "Solve order", which will show all possible
  cyclic conflicts (if there are).

- Technical: nodes now use "Type" structs which define the
  structure of nodes and in/output sockets. The Type structs store all
  fixed info, callbacks, and allow to reconstruct saved Nodes to match
  what is required by Blender.

- Defining (new) nodes now is as simple as filling in a fixed
  Type struct, plus code some callbacks. A doc will be made!

- Node preview images are by default float

********* Icon drawing:

- Cleanup of how old icons were implemented in new system, making
  them 16x16 too, correctly centered *and* scaled.

- Made drawing Icons use float coordinates

- Moved BIF_calcpreview_image() into interface_icons.c, renamed it
  icon_from_image(). Removed a lot of unneeded Imbuf magic here! :)

- Skipped scaling and imbuf copying when icons are OK size


********* Preview render:

- Huge cleanup of code....

- renaming BIF_xxx calls that only were used internally

- BIF_previewrender() now accepts an argument for rendering method,
  so it supports icons, buttonwindow previewrender and node editor

- Only a single BIF_preview_changed() call now exists, supporting all
  signals as needed for buttos and node editor


********* More stuff:

- glutil.c, glaDrawPixelsSafe() and glaDrawPixelsTex() now accept format
  argument for GL_FLOAT rects

- Made the ColorBand become a built-in button for interface.c
  Was a load of cleanup work in buttons_shading.c...

- removed a load of unneeded glBlendFunc() calls

- Fixed bug in calculating text length for buttons (ancient!)

Ton Roosendaal ce52827a05 Orange; daily noodler update commit.
- Adding execution code for Node trees. Was a bit a puzzle, since I want
  it to be multithreading by design. This now is solved by defining a
  stack per tree for all data that's being written into. This stack, which
  resides now in the NodeTree itself, then can be allocated per thread.

- For testing pleasure, I've added a 'mix node' and a 'show node', so
  you can already see it do something. :)

- reshuffled structure, to put things nice together, and have easier node
  adding. Current state is still WIP though, structure might change.
  For the record; new file node_shaders.c will contain all shader node
  definitions, apart from the drawing callbacks.

Next: I'm going to check on Andrea's work on icons now, since this is very
much needed for true shader/composit work.
Now back to release work...

Ton Roosendaal b33c68c906 Orange: daily commit of continuing work on noodle editor.
- delete/duplicate with connection links
- type awareness for sockets
- make connections checks for max amount of possible connections
- added dependency sorting of node list
- cyclic connections are drawn red now, press Ckey to see the other bad
  cycles.
- added UI toolkit support in nodes (try shift+a)

So, almost ready for execution code. :)

Ton Roosendaal e14ff3de3d Orange:
- Sunday merger with bf-blender

- Foundations for new Node editor in Blender, generic framework that can
  be used for Material/Texture, Compositing, Logic or maybe even Sequencer.
  Note: this doesn't do anything yet, nor save! Is just to get this nice
  in CVS now. :)

Ton Roosendaal 93338b894a New textbutton didn't accept buttons with Object names (or Mesh, etc), the
socalled ID-pointer buttons.
It appeared that the but->pos, for cursor, was calculated wrong. :)

Ton Roosendaal 449ac1b296 TAB cycling in number/text buttons. Was in tuhopuu too, but code needed
a good revision :)

This now cycles through all number/text buttons in a Panel. At the moment
it skips buttons with tab completion (object names, bones, constraints)
Press SHIFT+TAB to cycle backwards (any modifier will do btw).

2005-11-20 13:17:28 +00:00
Ton Roosendaal 77332fa698 Patch by Matt Ebb: upgraded usablitiy of text button.
Textbuttons now allow a selection too (like any textbutton in other UIs).
By default, on activating a textbutton, the entire button text is selected
when you enter the button. A single arrowkey or LMB click reveils the
cursor then. Here's more user notes:

LMB click: If inside the button, places the text cursor at the clicked
position. If outside the button, confirms/finishes editing

LMB drag: Selects the text between the start and end point of the drag.

Backspace: Deletes selected text, or backspaces a character

Shift Backspace: Deletes all, as before.

Delete: Deletes selected text or forward deletes a character

Shift LeftArrow: Extends the selection left

Shift RightArrow: Extends the selection right

LeftArrow: If there's a selection, move the cursor to the left edge of the
selection, otherwise move the cursor left a character.

RightArrow: If there's a selection, move the cursor to the right edge of
the selection, otherwise move the cursor right a character.

UpArrow/Home: Move the cursor to the beginning of the line

DownArrow/End: Move the cursor to the end of the line

Ctrl Left arrow and Ctrl Right arrow to jump between directory separators

Ton Roosendaal ca320003f4 Patch #3365, Toolbox from Tuhopuu
Patch prvovided by Guillermo, code was - afaik - from Rob Haarsma.

This changes the toolbox (space menu) to have the first level aligned
vertically. Works much easier that way, and since the items open either
left or right, it doesn't flip order of the contents for it either.

To allow people to test (and to compare) it's a user menu setting (in
View & Controls, "Plain menus"). I've turned this on by default though,
since I propose to not have it a user setting. User setting can be
removed later.

Fixed two bugs in patch:
- if saved in user settings, first time usage of this toolbox opened in
  wrong location
- Button for "plain menus" was writing a short in an int
  (causing this new menu not to work for big endian systems)

As a bonus I've added the long wanted hotkey support for opening and
closing sublevels of pulldowns with arrow keys!

I didn't add the commenting out of correcting pulldown menu order, which
is based on location of the originating button in the UI. This uncommenting
didn't solve anything, since button definitions itself can be flipped too.
(Example: the data brose menus in top bar need to be corrected).

I can imagine the order flipping is sometimes annoying, but it still has
reasons to be there;
- the most important / most used items are always closest to the mouse.
  (like opening properties panel, or "Add new" for material.
- it follows muscle memory and 'locus of attention' (mouse position).
- menus are configured to open to the top for bottom headers, and to the
  bottom for top headers. We can expect the UI is configured consistantly
  for headers, so in general the menus will appear consistant as well.

Where menu flipping fails is especially for alphabetic listings, like in
the menu button of fileselect. However, that one should be configured to
open by default to the bottom, so ordering is consistant as well.

If people like to check this themselves; uncomment the lines in the top
of the function uiBlockFlipOrder() in src/interface.c

Ton Roosendaal 621d4a700d Small fixes;
- Bone Ghost drawing now skips axes and names
- "Snap to cursor" now works for parent-less bones in PoseMode
- Prevented assigning in buttons of negative zero (was confusing)

Ton Roosendaal b8d81d093a Autocomplete for buttons that need Blender data names (ID's and Bones).
Just press TAB and it completes up to the level a match is found. If
more matches exist a menu could pop up, thats for later. Now an evening
off! :)

Daniel Dunbar af8b623002 o some warning fixes (compare of int to NULL, missing prototype) 2005-10-09 16:57:49 +00:00
Alexander Ewering 784a99b9b0 Beware, coded between 10 phone calls and 20 sudden surprises, but I still
hope it's somehow usable :-)

Colourpicker update:
-------------------

1) Converted numbuts to sliders and made the colourpicker wider. Sliders
   are more useful for something like RGB and HSV because they're fixed
   range values

2) Added a hex button for entering HTML-like color (#RRGGBB, can be
   entered both with and without the hash sign).

   This should completely replace the former strange NKEY functionality
   in buttonswindows, and even add hex support for buttons which didn't
   have it before.

Please test thoroughly, I never coded something in a hurry like this.

There are small rounding errors still... Maybe someone finds the
reason? :)

Ton Roosendaal 015fe7ea81 Version 1.0 of IpoDrivers.
First note that this is new functionality, unfinished, and only for
testing and feedback purposes. I'll list below what works, and what will
need work still.

This text is also in cms: http://www.blender.org/cms/Ipo_Drivers.680.0.html

An IpoDriver is like an IpoCurve, but instead of a Bezier curve, it allows
to connect a property of other Objects as input for the "channel". For
example, IpoDrivers can be used to have a Shape Key being "driven" by
the rotation of a Bone. Or the RGB colors of a Material get driven by the
XYZ location of an Object.

Editing of Drivers happens in the IpoWindow. Here you can notice that the
channels (right hand window) now have an "active" channel indicator.
To add a Driver, you have to use the "Transform Properties" Panel (Nkey).
Here you can add or remove a Driver to the active channel, and use the
buttons to fill in what kind of relationship you want to establish.

Driver Objects

Note that any Ipo Channel can become driven now, but that only Object
transformation or Pose Bone transformation can be used to become a
Driver now.
At this moment, only the local transformation is taken into account.
For Objects that means the location/rotation/scale value without Parent
transform (as shown in "Transform Properties" Panel for Objects).
For Pose Bones it means that only the Pose transform (changes of rest
position) is Driver information (also as shown in Transform Property
Panel in Pose Mode).

Mapping of Drivers

When an Ipo Channel is "driven", the mapping is by default one-to-one.
It is only restricted by already built-in limits for Channels, like
for Material the "R" value can only range from 0.0 to 1.0.

Also note that when mapping rotations, the actual rotation values
in Ipos are scaled down with a factor 10.0. (180 degrees actually has
in the Ipo system a value of 18.0). This is an ancient year zero
convention in Blender... it is a bit hidden, because the ruler
(vertical as well as horizontal) displays the virtual values correctly.
Only the Properties panel shows the actual value.

When you draw an IpoCurve in a Driven channel, this curve will define
the mapping between the Driver output (horizontal) and Driven input
(vertical, as usual).
A nice new option to use is "Insert one-to-one curve" (press I-key,
or in pulldown menu). This will also zoom the display in exactly to
fill the window, allowing easy edit. If you use this option with
degrees, it will map 180 degree rotation to a range of 1.0 unit.

Live updates

Since the Drivers are integrated in the Ipo system, they will always
be updated whenever an Ipo is evaluated. This happens at least on
frame changes.
For interactive feedback, updates while transforming objects were
added in these cases:

- Driven Object Ipos, by other Objects or Pose Bones
- Driven Shape Key Ipos, by other Objects or Pose Bones

You can also insert Drivers on Action Ipos, but these are only evaluated
on frame change now.

Todo

- Drivers can also get a text button, allowing a 1 line Python script
  to be executed.
- Make UI for it a bit less hidden... maybe with visualization in 3D?
- Allowing global transform coordinates as Driver too.

Issues

- renaming Bones won't rename drivers
- (file) appending the Ipo won't append the linked driver Objects

Mika Saari f210e88263 Coding style from spaces to tabs in files related to Unicode Font Object.
Function strlen changed to wcslen in editfont.c in ALT-U (undo) functionality.
2005-09-19 17:58:51 +00:00
Alexander Ewering 98bd4615b5 On behalf of Mika Saari, the famous Unicode Font support!
Further information is available here:

http://wiki.blender.org/bin/view.pl/Blenderdev/UnicodeFont3D

Shortlist of features:

- Unicode character support for Font3D
- UI to select characters from Unicode character list
- UI to select Unicode table areas
- Optimized character loading (Load only those characters which are used
  in font object)

Please test extensively if it breaks anything, try also loading/saving
files, packing fonts, etc.

The official text regression file in the regression suite should be a
good start.

Thanks to mikasaari for this very useful addition!

Ton Roosendaal 9b46c46dc9 Bugfix #3040, the new 'roundbox' button disabled copy/paste values in
buttons. You could notice that for Constraint and Modifier panels.
2005-09-12 13:26:53 +00:00
Ton Roosendaal 517e526e9e Bug fix #2788
in 3d window, nkey panel, click in middle of number button & press ESC
moved the 3d cursor to that location. The button was passing on its
event to the window event queue, which shouldn't be.
2005-09-03 12:35:13 +00:00
Ton Roosendaal fd7d224d4c Bug fix #2972
Copy/Paste bone name buttons crashed, didn't use the callback for buttons
proper yet.

Also added MAXFRAME defines for buttons, instead of hardcoded values 9000
or 18000
2005-09-03 10:50:21 +00:00
Ton Roosendaal dfb654ba60 Huge commit, but not much features... had to shuffle a lot of code around.
Main target was cleanup of editconstraint.c and removal of the ugly
ob->activecon (active constraint channel), which was set by the "Show"
button in the Constraint Panel.
Better is to introduce an 'Active Constraint' itself, which stores in
the Constraint itself. By using this setting, and by checking the active
Bone, the UI can update reliably now. This only shows now in IpoWindow
btw (for constraint ipos). The active Constraint is drawn in the Buttons
with a slightly brighter backdrop. Any action in that Panel selects a
constraint now (even click in backdrop).

So now we have pose channels & constraint channels nicely behaving. Now the
darn Action channels... :)

Further in this commit:

- interface.c: Button ROUNDBOX now does button callback too.
               Button NUMSLI didn't do the callback on a click only

- Cleaned up include files in yafray, got annoyed it compiled over all the
  time.

- removed unused variables from Constraint struct
2005-08-24 20:18:03 +00:00
Ton Roosendaal 29429d73f2 A couple of smaller fixes;
- Modifier Panel, name label for "Virtual" modifiers was too short
- On extrude Bones, "soft distance" now is always set based on length
  of the bone (also on CTRL+click, also when Envelope drawmode is not set)
- Added undo-push for "Apply Bone Envelopees to VertexGroup" in WeightPaint.
- Menu-buttons in floating panels sometimes gave drawing error
- InfoWindow buttons were always allocated & drawn, even when window was
  zero sized... waste of cpu, tsk!
2005-08-20 09:55:11 +00:00
Ton Roosendaal f1609dde11 Added new button type: ROUNDBOX
This replaces drawing with uiRoundBox() or glRect() in button Panels,
which just fails for dynamic constructed button views where Panels are
sometimes invisible. Also eliminates hack with PanelPop().
Error was visible with new Modifier panel, entering/exiting EditMode.

Done Modifier and Constraints.

Syntax:

The last 4 free variables in the uiDefBut() call are:
- float, corner-rounding (0.0-pixels),
- not used,
- short: roundbox type (bits, 1 2 4 8 for clockwise corners starting left/top)
- short: color shade offset (color range 0-255)
2005-08-15 19:46:09 +00:00
Daniel Dunbar 28a1f55ff6 - added copy button to modifier stack UI
- add warning about applying decimation
 - some more UI tweaks (rounding of modifier pane, make toggles only in header,
   add object name to try to convey that modifier stack is tied to OB)
 - bug fix, modifier recalc wasn't done on make link
 - bug fix, uiBlockEndAlign didn't clear align flags with certain themes,
   pretty sure this wasn't intended. (TON: PLEASE CHECK)
2005-08-06 18:51:58 +00:00
Daniel Dunbar 3367a030b3 - added UI_EMBOSSR option (rounded emboss)
- added support for vector icons, from user API side is just like using
   a regular icon... on icon side is defined by a function in resources.c
   instead of using the blenderbuttons png file. vector icons are much
   easier to add and scale properly. intent is that vector icons would
   be drawn in window coordinates which lets icon developers make the
   most beautiful icons, but this requires some tweaking of the interface
   drawing that I am not going to do atm.
 - changed BIF_draw_icon* to take coordinates of where to draw icon instead
   of using passed in raster position
 - switch modifier UI to using vector icons, and tweaked some position and
   style stuff.
 - replaced most uses of UI_EMBOSSX with UI_EMBOSS (do same thing, just there
   to confuse people I guess)

After the window coordinate stuff is sorted out with vector icons
it probably makes sense to move all non-photorealistic icons in blenderbuttons
to vector form just so scaling goes better.
2005-08-04 22:36:21 +00:00
Daniel Dunbar b03a20d272 - got rid of silly #define ..._BIT, #define ... (1<<..._BIT) stuff
- switched almost all uiDefBut(..., TOG|BIT|..) to use UiDefButBit and the
   name of the actual bit define instead of just a magic constant, this makes
   searching the code much nicer. most of the credit here goes to LetterRip
   who did almost all of the conversions, I mostly just checked them over.
2005-08-03 18:48:22 +00:00
Daniel Dunbar 3abbc85ae0 - commit some testing code for LetterRip's bit button conversion 2005-07-25 23:56:57 +00:00
Ton Roosendaal 28a1e8277b Result of 2 weeks of quiet coding work in Greece :)
Aim was to get a total refresh of the animation system. This
is needed because;
- we need to upgrade it with 21st century features
- current code is spaghetti/hack combo, and hides good design
- it should become lag-free with using dependency graphs

A full log, with complete code API/structure/design explanation
will follow, that's a load of work... so here below the list with
hot changes;

- The entire object update system (matrices, geometry) is now
  centralized. Calls to where_is_object and makeDispList are
  forbidden, instead we tag objects 'changed' and let the
  depgraph code sort it out
- Removed all old "Ika" code
- Depgraph is aware of all relationships, including meta balls,
  constraints, bevelcurve, and so on.
- Made depgraph aware of relation types and layers, to do smart
  flushing of 'changed' events. Nothing gets calculated too often!
- Transform uses depgraph to detect changes
- On frame-advance, depgraph flushes animated changes

Armatures;

Almost all armature related code has been fully built from scratch.
It now reveils the original design much better, with a very clean
implementation, lag free without even calculating each Bone more than
once. Result is quite a speedup yes!

Important to note is;

1) Armature is data containing the 'rest position'
2) Pose is the changes of rest position, and always on object level.
   That way more Objects can use same Pose. Also constraints are in Pose
3) Actions only contain the Ipos to change values in Poses.

- Bones draw unrotated now
- Drawing bones speedup enormously (10-20 times)
- Bone selecting in EditMode, selection state is saved for PoseMode,
  and vice-versa
- Undo in editmode
- Bone renaming does vertexgroups, constraints, posechannels, actions,
  for all users of Armature in entire file
- Added Bone renaming in NKey panel
- Nkey PoseMode shows eulers now
- EditMode and PoseMode now have 'active' bone too (last clicked)
- Parenting in EditMode' CTRL+P, ALT+P, with nice options!
- Pose is added in Outliner now, with showing that constraints are in
  the Pose, not Armature
- Disconnected IK solving from constraints. It's a separate phase now,
  on top of the full Pose calculations
- Pose itself has a dependency graph too, so evaluation order is lag free.

TODO NOW;

- Rotating in Posemode has incorrect inverse transform (Martin will fix)
- Python Bone/Armature/Pose API disabled... needs full recode too
  (wait for my doc!)
- Game engine will need upgrade too
- Depgraph code needs revision, cleanup, can be much faster!
  (But, compliments for Jean-Luc, it works like a charm!)
- IK changed, it now doesnt use previous position to advance to next
  position anymore. That system looks nice (no flips) but is not well
  suited for NLA and background render.

TODO LATER;

We now can do loadsa new nifty features as well; like:

- Kill PoseMode (can be option for armatures itself)
- Make B-Bones (Bezier, Bspline, like for spines)
- Move all silly button level edit to 3d window (like CTRL+I = add
  IK)
- Much better & informative drawing
- Fix action/nla editors
- Put all ipos in Actions (object, mesh key, lamp color)
- Add hooks
- Null bones
- Much more advanced constraints...


Bugfixes;

- OGL render (view3d header) had wrong first frame on anim render
- Ipo 'recording' mode had wrong playback speed
- Vertex-key mode now sticks to show 'active key', until frame change

Simon Clitherow 35a00d7ca0 Fix v2.0 for #2256:
An alternative fix - last one broke stuff that I only discovered
*after* committing! Go figure!

Basically, gave B_REDR events for the sliders -- I still think
there is a bigger underlying issue here, but it is best left for
Ton the interface guru! ;)

Simon Clitherow 6d823636b8 Bug fix: #2256
Sliders (and potentially other buttons) with no retval were not breaking the ui_do_block() loop, which caused events to propagate to other panels!

(The effect could also be seen by dragging from AO sliders into the
World name textbox.)

Ton Roosendaal 8242c5db2b Bugfix #2602
Tooltips of buttons with menus (like for set constraint type) could popup
still... and in wrong location even!
Now it's a little bit tighter coded.

Ton Roosendaal d4b2824b24 Bug fix #2535
Armatures with > 100 bones can deliver a 'parent IK menu' that doesn't
fit on screen anymore. Fixed it with changes;

- when menu doesnt fit to right/left, it places it aligned to left hand
  of window
- when more than 8 collums in a menu exist, it makes collums 25 items
  instead of 20.

Also fixed for the popup menu on Bone parenting. On a 1280 screen we now
can have a menu with over 300 bones (even more when you zoom down the
buttons window a bit). Still not optimal, but at least it's less annoying.

Ton Roosendaal a7bbf8245a Fixed various errors with Blender allowing editing Library linked data.
CTRL+V on buttons
NKEY Panels
join mesh
join curve
editing buttons
boolean
vpaint
faceselect
Manipulator

Also; Transform() got in useless loop when you entered without anything
selected. Not sure why Martin recoded it this way... maybe as a first
step to handlerify it? For evil Python Aussie Bosses? :P

Ton Roosendaal 0574768f88 Animated UI for TimeLine "Play"
Using the Play button in timeline, now uses an event-driven system to
update the animation system and signal windows to redraw. Meaning the
full UI remains responsive!

Check the new Pulldown "Playback" to set which windows you like to see
updated. Same settings is used for LMB 'dragging' frames in Timeline.

Implementation notes;

- the Icon for 'Pause' (or stop) has to be made yet, I commit this from
  my laptop... all was coded during a 2 x 5 hour train ride to germany
- the anim playback system (ALT+A too) now uses correct "frames per
  second" as maximum speed. Buttons can be found in 3 places in the UI,
  also added it as pulldown item
- The system works with 'screen handlers', which has been coded with
  using Python (networked) events or verse in mind too. A doc on that
  will follow.
- the buttons code has been made 'resistant' to animated UIs too,
  preventing flashing of hilites.
- All subloops (like transform) stop playback, with exception of MMB
  view manipulations.

As extra; found tweak to make Textured AA fonts draw without distortion.
Looks perfect here on laptop now (like Pixmap fonts) and is 20x faster.

Ton Roosendaal 422b69fe1e UI cleanup work;
Proportional edit:

- Proportional mode added to header as button/menu. Including new option
  to have only connected geometry influenced.
- Added icons for proportional & proportional modes
- Make proportional edit data part of Scene, so all gets saved.
  The Global flag G_PROPORTIONAL was removed
- Made sure #defines get used properly, also tweaked order for proportional
  so it starts with regular 'smooth' by default.
- Use ALT+O in editmode to switch to new proportional 'connected' mode

Other UI stuff:

- in EditMode, the layer buttons get hidden... the amount of icons in
  3d header grows to fast. :)
- made less ugly icons for the Manipulators. Still can be better.
- Added alpha-filter for pre-processing Icon-image, giving nicer display
  of icon-antialising on dark or bright backdrops
- disabled Manipulators when in editmode, and current layers don't show
  the edited data.
- Added the value used to define Normal size (editmode draw) in Scene too,
  so it gets saved.

Ton Roosendaal 42126cb5fc Added baking for softbodies.
Works as follows;
- press the 'show bake settings' button (no space left... :)
- define start/end frame for bake, and an interval step.
  The baked result interpolates nicely (Bspline, 4 keys) so in general a
  step size of 2 or 3 still gives OK results.
- Press "BAKE". This will do a full animation + playback. Press ESC if it
  you don't want it.

Once Baked, the BAKE button becomes a FREE BAKE. As reminder the softbody
buttons get blocked with error() menu.

This saves OK in a file. Renders any frame, including fields and moblur.
You can also set a "Timeoffs" for the softbody. And yes, this should be
in the NLA once... :)

NOTE! With this commit, files saved with the old (first commit) version by
Jens Ole won't read the settings back... he stored all sofbody variables in
Object, which was moved to a new struct when I did my first commit on SB
(over a month ago)

Also note that I moved particle deflecting & softbody to a new include.

Ton Roosendaal 8b99bfb173 Added menu in header for orientation of manipulator widgets.
Also slightly tweaked threshold for drawing text in menu buttons. The text
was clipped just too quick.
2005-04-28 17:04:08 +00:00
Ton Roosendaal 3fd3728000 Fix for centered submenu (for example py export script) also worked
when menu didn't open to left/right but on top/bottom. Caused errors...

Ton Roosendaal 7b6ec97182 Bug fix #2311
File name (40) and dirname (80) were too short in sequence data. Made it
compliant using defines FILE_MAXFILE and FILE_MAXDIR.
Also replaced all strcpy() and strcat() with strncpy/strncat, with the
defines in it.
Oh, also fixed plugin path length for sequence, was just 80!

Bug fix #2366

Restored old convention that made using SHIFT+CTRL while using button-
sliders go with 0.1 stepsize of CTRL.
(noticed too late that Chris Burt assigned to self... sorry!)
2005-03-24 09:37:06 +00:00
Ton Roosendaal 21aadaecdd Small fix; when pulldown menus are too large to display (they get aligned
with top/bottom to active button) the menu aligns from bottom of blender
window.

This already happened for File->Export menu

Daniel Dunbar 8e92ee8684 - remove all obsolete inclusions of BLI_winstuff.h (due to recent changes)
NOTE: BLI_winstuff.h was meant to be a wrapper around windows.h to handle
undefining various crap that windows.h defines. Platform specific headers
should only have to be included in a few places. This reduces the number
of inclusions of BLI_winstuff.h to 16 which is a much more reasonable
number (than the 144 or whatever it used to be)

JLuc Peuriere c78e44cdc5 big warning hunt commit
lot of casts, added prototypes, missing includes and some true errors
2005-03-09 19:45:59 +00:00
Rob Haarsma 136ecd4644 Modified interface texture font support, which should work nicely with the freshly added bFTGL library.
Also removed some redundant #include's on some files.
2005-01-21 14:48:03 +00:00
Rob Haarsma 9fddd2bdec Added experimental option to use GL textured interface fonts.
Set preferred method in userprefs->language & font.
Kinda requested by Kaito, i'm sure he regrets after seeing
my code changes.

This commit includes a patch provided by Jacques Baurain,
which seemed nescessary to handle font sizing properly.
Thank you !
