* small improvement to last commit: actually pass the error value from WM_write_file back to the operator and cancel the operator if not successful. This also preserves the indication that the file hasn't been saved in case of error.
This adds a new presets menu in the splash screen and the Input section of
User Preferences to choose a preset interaction style, consisting of key configurations
and also other user preferences such as select mouse button, view rotation style, etc.
Currently, just 'Blender' and 'Maya' presets are included, hopefully we can have more
presets contributed (and maintained!) by the community.
It's best to keep these presets minimal to avoid too many key conflicts. In the Maya one
I changed the view manipulation key/mouse combos and also the transform
manipulator keys, not much more than that.
To save an interaction preset, open the user preferences Input section, and press the
[ + ] button next to the presets menu. It will save out a .py file containing any edited key
maps and navigation preferences to the presets/interaction folder in your scripts folder.

Part of this commit changes the way that key maps are exported/displayed in
preferences - now partial key configs are allowed. Previously it would export/import the
entire key configuration, regardless of whether individual key maps were edited or not
(which would make them more susceptible to conflicts in unexpected areas).
(note, in blender terminology, a key map is a category of key items, such as
'Object Mode' or 'View 2d'.)
Now, the export and the UI display work in a similar way to how key maps are
processed internally - Locally edited key maps (after pressing the 'Edit' button) are
processed first, falling back to other key maps in the current key config, and then falling
back to the default key config. So it's possible for a key config to only include a few
key maps, and the rest just gets pulled from the default key config. The preferences
UI display works like this too behind the scenes in deciding what to show users,
however using it is just like it was before, the complexity is hidden.
- ALT+Scrollwheel zooms backdrop in node editor
- Blender -d debug print will also print every event except mouse moves
(needed to debug WM, some events are catched by OS)
- Changed order of keymaps... the default maps now are evaluated *after*
the own custom maps, so you can make overrides or defaults.
- Disallow this and report a warning in the console when it happens.
- File selector operators now report in the global report console.
- Cleared some warnings.
that mode. This ensures proper initialization happens like creating the
cursor or building an acceleration structure. It also means edit and
particle mode are now saveable.
Not sure yet if this is a good feature, though personally I like being able
to load my exact state again after saving, but maybe entering edit mode is
too slow in some cases? It's easy to make it work only for the sculpt/paint
modes again if wanted.
This fixes bug #21004 about a missing sculpt cursor on load.
- Rename option and flag to something more sane
- Add property to manipulator operator and set true by default
Confirm on Release can now be forced true or false per operator, in which case it won't use the default value (the user preference).
* Fixed the way the operator was checking for what the user wanted when using the operator
* Added a few specific defines to a copy of the gesture border modal keymap (added one for zooming only) labelled 'In' and 'Out' which make this more useful than being hacked to use select and deselect
C functions and python used different argument order, this relied on mapping non-keyword arguments to 'REQUIRED' arguments but meant that you could not have an optional, non-keyword argument.
next commit will make order of arguments consistant (currently only changed order that rna wrapped).

* Copy/Paste operators for F-Modifiers
Available in Graph and NLA Editors. Use the Copy/Paste buttons beside the 'Add Modifier' buttons.
Copy copies all the modifiers of the ACTIVE F-Curve or Strip depending on the editor.
Paste pastes modifiers from the buffer to all the selected F-Curves or Strips, adding the new modifiers to the ends of each list.
* 'Stepped Interpolation' F-Modifier
This modifier holds each interpolated value from the F-Curve for several frames without changing the timing.
This allows to preview motions 'on-twos' for example without altering the timing, or having to go through setting heaps of keyframes. In this case, Andy wanted to use this for CG <-> StopMo.
works, it's mostly non-functional there (i.e. when you've just started the application).
It would be nice if blender could name the temp files in a special way so that it could actually
search through the temp folder and find the most recently saved temp file, but for now, I'll
just remove the option.
- update internal 'btempdir' from userprefs on changing and initializing the temp dir.
- add sequence strip operators nolonger require the sequence view to be active (better for automation).
(commit 27434 by Campbell from render25 branch)
After a few days of wrong turns and learning the finer points of RNA-type-subclassing the hard way, this commit finally presents a refactored version of the Keying Sets system (now version 2) based on some requirements from Cessen.
For a more thorough discussion of this commit, see
http://sites.google.com/site/aligorith/keyingsets_2.pdf?attredirects=0&d=1
------
The main highlight of this refactor is that relative Keying Sets have now been recoded so that Python callbacks are run to generate the Keying Set's list of paths everytime the Keying Set is used (to insert or delete keyframes), allowing complex heuristics to be used to determine whether a property gets keyframed based on the current context. These checks may include checking on selection status of related entities, or transform locks.
Built-In KeyingSets have also been recoded, and moved from C and out into Python. These are now coded as Relative Keying Sets, and can to some extent serve as basis for adding new relative Keying Sets. However, these have mostly been coded in a slightly 'modular' way which may be confusing for those not so familiar with Python in general. A usable template will be added soon for more general usage.
Keyframing settings (i.e. 'visual', 'needed') can now be specified on a per-path basis now, which is especially useful for Absolute Keying Sets, where control over this is often beneficial.
Most of the places where Auto-Keyframing is performed have been tidied up for consistency. I'm sure quite a few issues still exist there, but these I'll clean up over the next few days.
Added automatic generation of lookup_int callbacks for collections, for
quicker lookup by index instead of looping over the whole thing. Import
is still quite slow, though now it only takes a few seconds.
The next bottleneck seems to be running update (depsgraph, notifiers, ..)
on setting every property. I fixed part of that by avoiding a notifier
to be added each time, now it checks for duplicates.
* move own thread handling for thumbnails to WM_jobs
* cleanup of thumbnail creation code
* added function to kill the job, which actually allows thread to terminate gracefully
vc9 projectfiles:
* fixed some missing includes for release target!
It's (still) not working since the pool in the operator will not allow this operator to run without context.
For the window/area/screen has to be created somewhere (maybe in WM_init_game ).
I have no idea on what should be done to initialize it here, so if anyone knows how to proceed, please help here.
* side note: should we also have it as a command line option?
