Previously Blender did not store the order in which vertices, edges
or faces were selected in edit mode. In many cases it is useful to
have this data, however it is not desirable to store every selection
made. Now blender stores selections in the order in which they were
made in a linked list called 'selected' in EditMesh. EditSelection structs
are created whenever 'EM_store_selection' from editmesh_lib.c is called
(currently only on user selection with mouse). There are several cases
in which they might be deallocated by calling the 'EM_remove_selection'
function however:
-When the user deselects something with the mouse ('mouse_mesh' in
editmesh_mods.c)
-When switching selection modes stored selections that are not relevant
to the new mode are removed by the 'EM_strip_selections' function
(multi-select mode is supported)
-When the vertex, edge or face pointed to by a certain stored selection is
deallocated
-When EM_clear_flag_all is called and where the flag passed to the function
contains the 'SELECT' bitmask.
-When leaving edit mode (making stored selection data persistent across
editing sessions will require modifications to mesh DNA later)
Todo:
There are a few cases still where you can temporarily end up with a stored
selection that points to an element that is no longer selected
(edge loop de-select can cause this for instance). The solution to this is to
add a call to EM_remove_selection from 'EM_select_edge' and 'EM_select_face' when
these functions are being used to deselect elements. For the sake of completeness
however this will also require that an 'EM_select_vert' function be coded and
called at all appropriate parts of the editmesh code. I will look into this
later in the week.
For now there are two tools that already take advantage of the stored selections.
The first one is 'merge at first or last vertex' in the merge menu (the 'firstvert' and
'lastvert' pointers are gone from EditMesh). The second tool is path select, which builds
a path between the last vert selected and the second to last vert selected. This allows you
to build complex path selections in a short amount of time like this
'select A, select B, path select. select C, path select. select D...'
Based on a patch by Matthias Derer, this adds the distance moved to a translation (grab) transform
(both 3D and 2D, although the 2D transform displays the normalised distance only).
This patch is mostly a usability patch for the sequencer, mainly written by
Anders Gudmundson and twisted a little bit by me.
- Lock Time to other windows
- Possibility to switch the X-Axis between frames and seconds-display
- IPO-Frame Locking for plugins (T-Key)
- Additional Popup to add HD-Sound and Movie at once
- In Timeline-Window: Sequencer windows only playback
- Make the IPOs a little bit IPO-Frame-Lock friendlier (doesn't jump;
the frame that is drawn has the right dimension)
- Wheel-Mouse buttons make the sequencer window zoom again.
- The "This is not a sound/movie-file message" now reads "... or
FFMPEG-support not compiled in!" since I learned some prominent
people who complained, that hdaudio does not work for them ;-)
- Make SPACEKEY open up the "Add Strip"-Popup on the timeline and start
playback in the preview window.
so you can select 2 faces and then get all coplaner faces around both.
Added fp to face and edge edit data so as to store edge length and face area/perimeter. (in the union so minimal overhead)
current implimentation is fairly optimized.
Change to arithb.c was just to command Inpf as being the dot producr.
Added VecAngle2 - needed for grouping by normal and planer faces.
Made select face & edge group ignore hidden faces.
fixed a bug where hiding faces didnt update G.tot*sel
recalculate, causing a segfault when the curve was selected in the Ipo
window. lattice.insertKey() has similar code. Added calls to
allspace(REMAKEIPO,0) to correct this.
center's Z location. An eons-old comment in the code said:
/* Curves need to be 2d, never offset in
* Z. Is a somewhat arbitrary restriction,
* would probably be nice to remove. */
I couldn't find any other reason for the restriction other than 2D curves
limit the point's Z component to 0, so added a check to only forve the
center Z to 0 when the curve is 2D. If there are other reasons for the
restriction, then this commit may need to be rolled back.
newline missing at end of file fixes:
TypedConstraint.h WheelInfo.h RaycastVehicle.h VehicleRaycaster.h
CcdPhysicsEnvironment.cpp
radiance_hdr.c fixed the following warning by changing type of local variable:
radiance_hdr.c:357: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 3 of
‘fwritecol rs’ differ in signedness
edgeRender.c,edgeRender.h same thing changed type of local vars to get rid
of warnings about signedness
RAS_OpenGLRasterizer.cpp removed unused variable unit line 1295

Blender.c python initialization creates a scene when in background mode and when there is no scene.
Needed to skip redrawing when in background mode because it depended on screen data that wasnt there.
a string as an int and it was causing a warning.
I changed it to check to see if the string == 0
return 0 else return 1.
The only thing that called this function was memtest.c and it
had outdated code, so I fixed that...
was calling MEM_set_error_stream updated to
MEM_set_error_callback

Two small bugfixes:
* Image.New() resets id.us to 0; it is set to 1 by new_image()
* allow ima.depth and ima.size getters to propagate their own error
messages (missing image was returning MemoryError)
Also, seems to me there's something funny going on with image id.us
accounting. In do_image_buttons(), id.us is set whenever an image is
accessed vi the datablock menu:
if(idtest!=id) {
G.sima->image= (Image *)idtest;
if(idtest->us==0) idtest->us= 1;
allqueue(REDRAWIMAGE, 0);
}
This is independent of whether a UV face is selected or not (and it also
seems that the number of UV faces linked to an image is not maintained
either).
was required (compositor can also be used with only image input) told
the pipeline not to render when no composite nodes were available at all,
and with button 'Use Nodes' on.
work for Composite nodes using a scene... when you delete such a node the
scene could get zero users then.
Now scenes count users correctly, and are initialized to 1 on the correct
place.
Fixing compile for Windows mingw builds with cygwin make and scons.
Used SHGetFolderPath instead of SHGetSpecialFolderPath which is
better supported for mingw.
Thanks to Ralf Hoelzemer for the tip and the patch.
Let me know if any problems persist, I'll try to fix then.

- added a zoom factor for Planar Environment Map, allowing to zoom in or
out on the reflected object. The zoom is corrected when rendering, so it
just gives control over the resolution.
- Planar maps don't cycle anymore, but only render the front plane, using
standard image texture extend mode.
- threaded rendering is back in envmap render
patch #2554: My Documents and Desktop folder automaticly added to the Folders
pulldown of the filesector
Only affects Windows builds.
Uses shell functions to correctly get the My Documents and Desktop folders and
then add them to the fsmenu, right below the drive letters.
Needs shell32.lib linked, which is already linked by default for VS7 project files.
Platform maintainer please check if it has to be added to scons and MSVC6 project files.
Patch provided by Martin Poirier (theeth) - many thanks!
eg
Blender -b c:\blends\test.blend -o "c:\renders\render_#.png" -x 0 -F PNG
-x 1/0 for extension enable/disable
-F for format/filetype
This is important because somebody elses Blend files can render anywhere on your PC, possibly a security risk.
And nice for renderfarms to be able to set the path without running a python script inside the blend file.
blender --help (render opts only)
Render options:
-b <file> Render <file> in background
-S <name> Set scene <name>
-f <frame> Render frame <frame> and save it
-s <frame> Set start to frame <frame> (use with -a)
-e <frame> Set end to frame (use with -a)<frame>
-o <path> Set the render path and file name.
Use // at the start of the path to
render relative to the blend file.
Use # in the filename to be replaced with the frame number
eg: blender -b foobar.blend -o //render_# -F PNG -x 1
-F <format> Set the render format, Valid options are..
TGA IRIS HAMX FTYPE JPEG MOVIE IRIZ RAWTGA
AVIRAW AVIJPEG PNG AVICODEC QUICKTIME BMP
HDR TIFF EXR MPEG FRAMESERVER CINEON DPX
Use // at the start of the path to
-x <bool> Set option to add the file extension to the end of the file.
Added details to the -v option
Eg
blender -v
Blender 2.41 Build
build date: 2006-03-20
build time: 16:16:34
build platform: linux-glibc2.3.6-i386
build type: dynamic
Also fixed bugs where nagative/realy big frames could be set- causing Blender to crash.
allowing to use it for planar mirrors. Enable it with the new "Plane"
option in the Environment Map Panel.
Current default is to render the cube side that points to the positive
Z axis direction. To make it work, it uses the same image for all
other cube sides, so it will 'wrap around'.
Also made maximum resolution for environment map to be 4096x4096 now.
Fixed BLI_exist: In Windows stat doesn't recognize
a dirname ending is a slash, exept when it's
the root dir ("C:\\"), where it is required.
So trailing slashes are only removed when filename
is longer than 3 chars.
Also fixed Python Sys.c that now uses BLI_exist
instead of calling stat directly.
grp.objects
To have an iterator assigned as well as a list. Since gp.objects is an ietartor this is expected.
grp.objects= someGroup.objects works now.
Some other small fixes made.
Made a wrapper for add_to_group() That handles the OB_FROMGROUP flag. Should be moved to group.c's add_to_group()
void add_to_group_wraper(Group *group, Object *ob) {
Base *base;
add_to_group(group, ob);
if (!(ob->flag & OB_FROMGROUP)) { /* do this to avoid a listbase lookup */
ob->flag |= OB_FROMGROUP;
base= object_in_scene(ob, G.scene);
if (base)
base->flag |= OB_FROMGROUP;
}
}
This is very confusing.
Since in object has
ob.setDupliGroup() # Enable/Disable Dupligroup
ob.getDupliGroup() # see if its enabled.
ob.dupliGroup # the group data this object is instancing.
Not yet added
ob.groups # Groups that use this object.
Update image loader, optional arg for not autocreating the image. - aslo removed some stuff that shouldent have been left in.
Workaround for a bug in Blender.sys.exists()... should fix soon.
* Applied patch #4012 by Joseph Eagar. The patch provides a way to quickly assign a list
of libraries to build with debug symbols. Usage:
scons BF_QUICKDEBUG=src,bf_blenkernel,bf_blenlib
couple of bugs in the new float support in sequencer;
- when effects have float buffer input, the effect strip itself only got
byte buffers assigned, which bypassed the float versions of effects
- the float version of cross effect used ints to fade... should be float
- tests if an effect should be recalculated didn't check for float yet
- display of float buffer in sequencer preview showed black when no
byte rect was in imbuf
Peter; we need this urgent, so I commit now.. check if this is according
to how you thought floatbuffers to work? thanks!
