EditMesh *EM_GetEditMesh(Mesh *me);
void EM_EndEditMesh(Mesh *me, EditMesh *em);
as discussed on the mailling list, this is to facilitate migration to bmesh.
next step is to merge this this to the bmesh branch. this was done in the 2.5
branch to prevent too great a divergance.
also, made makesdna/makesrna work on cygwin/msvc2008/scons.
- use select as a suffix eg UV_OT_loop_select -> UV_OT_select_loop
- Each select all operator was using slightly different wording...
select_all, deselect_all, de_select_all, select_de_select_all -> select_all_toggle
- selection -> select
- POSE_OT_select_connected -> POSE_OT_select_linked to match other operators
- NODE_OT_delete_selection -> NODE_OT_delete since its not used in other operators
- ANIM_OT_previewrange_define -> ANIM_OT_previewrange_set to match other operators
- NODE_OT_fit_all -> NODE_OT_view_all to match other operators
- View2D_OT_* -> VIEW2D_OT_* to match VIEW3D
- View2D_OT_view_downscroll -> VIEW2D_OT_scroll_down more logical
- removed MARKER_OT_mouseselect_extend and made extend a boolean property of MARKER_OT_mouseselect
- MARKER_OT_mouseselect -> MARKER_OT_select
- GROUP_OT_group_remove -> GROUP_OT_objects_remove more logical since its removing objects from groups
- MESH_OT_removedoublesflag -> MESH_OT_remove_doubles
- redundant words MESH_OT_split_mesh -> MESH_OT_split, OBJECT_OT_object_delete -> OBJECT_OT_delete
renamed selection operator properties
extend_select -> extend
column_select -> column
select_children_only -> children_only
... Since these are all in the context of selection operators there is no need for the extra 'select' in the property name.
Updated docs
http://www.graphicall.org/ftp/ideasman42/html/bpyoperator-module.html
that does that needed to be split in two. this made dissolve faces sometimes
not work.
also added some api functions to recalculate normals for verts, edges and
faces. and added a new flag, BM_NONORMCALC, to prevent this from happening
on individual fgon faces after they are tesselated. and made dissolve faces
happen on fkey in all the selection modes, not just face select.
- Mesh Rip back (Vkey). For those who keep wondering how
it works: just put mouse cursor somewhere close to the
selection, press V and mouse mouse away from it. Feels
like real rip!
- Made extrude sorta work, no menu/options yet though.
But it does transform!
- Added an short event->mval[2] with region coords,
easier coding for the guys :)
- Fill operator standard delivers 'beauty' now
Big commit, but mainly adminstration.
- Enabled ot->flag OPTYPE_UNDO to work.
- Removed all redundant ED_undo_pushes, but I'd
recommend everyone to check it while testing. :)
- Added view manipulations as OPTYPE_REGISTER,
although this will flood the redo stack a bit...
Nevertheless; for a "redo last action" panel we
can simply check if both flags are set for redo.
- Bugfix in editmode undo: selectmode was cleared,
so you couldn't select after undo
- Bugfix in mixing tweaks and keymaps... solution
works but is weak, need to think over a while.
Edit mesh:
- fixed compile, shul only committed the function declaration, not
the code for 'make fgon'.
- Put the Fgon option under:
ALT+F: make fgon
SHIFT+ALT+F: clear fgon
(note, SHIFT+F = fill :)
- Fixed loop select to use two booleans, as Martin pointed me
correctly at! Using 1 variable was lazy coding.
- Edit mesh: Add ctrl+click add vertex or extrude.
I've made it not move the 3d cursor in that case.
Also found out tweak events conflicted with existing
keymap definitions; on tweak failure (= no mousemove)
it now passes on the mouse event as 'mouse down' for
the remaining keymaps to check.
These then actually respond to mouse-up instead of down...
The location in the keymaps where tweaks get generated
remains important. Examples:
1 - 'select' mouse-handler, operator return pass-through
2 - tweak handler checks, and makes tweak event
3 - grabber responds to tweak event
1 - ctrl+mouse tweak handler checks, makes tweak event,
or passes event on
2 - if tweak event, it runs lasso
3 - else when passed on, ctrl+click extrude happens
In the first case, select works on mouse-down, immediate.
In the second case, extrude happens on mouse-release, even
though the keymap defined mouse-press.
This will make designing nice balanced keymaps still not
simple; especially because you can't tell operators to
pass on the key... although we can add the convention that
select-mouse operators always pass on to enable tweaks.
Still a good reason to wait with custom keymaps
when this is fully settled!
- Made WM_cursor_wait() work without context or pointers,
like old waitcursor(). Only use when operations entirely
block UI. It will set waitcursor for all open windows.
- Cleanup in mesh tools, removing old cruft, and prepare
for more goodies for shul to work on!
View3D four-split: added box-clip for the three ortho
windows. Is all on by default, waiting for headers and
buttons to come back.
Also: hotkey for foursplit now also removes it (toggle)
Also: window_to_3d() function only did delta's,
renamed it to window_to_3d_delta and coded a
real window_to_3d()
View3D has been split now in a local part (RegionView3D) and a
per-area part (old View3D). Currently local is:
- view transform
- camera zoom/offset
- gpencil (todo)
- custom clipping planes
Rest is in Area still, like active camera, draw type, layers,
localview, custom centers, around-settings, transform widget,
gridlines, and so on (mostly stuff as available in header).
To see it work; also added new feature for region split,
press SHIFT+ALT+CTRL+S for four-split.
The idea is to make a preset 4-split, configured to stick
to top/right/front views for three views.
Another cool idea to explore is to then box-clip all drawing
based on these 3 views.
Note about the code:
- currently view3d still stores some depricated settings, to
convert from older files. Not all settings are copied over
though, like custom clip planes or the 'lock view to object'.
- since some view3d ops are now on area level, the operators
for it should keep track of that.
Bugfix in transform: quat initialize in operator-invoke missed
one zero.
Als brought back GE to compile for missing Ipos and channels.
* Added more compact property definitions, with a single function.
Only used by operators at the moment, would need to tweak regular
expressions a bit more to use it also for other RNA definitions.
* The operator properties defined now were completed a bit more but
still have many issues that need to be adressed, specifically;
* Some properties that should be booleans or enums are defined as
ints, note that ints are only for numeric values, not bitflags
or multiple choice.
* Soft/hard limits and default values of many properties are not
well defined still,
* Inconsistent naming, especially for example mouse locations or
bounds are named differently in different places. Also mouse
locations and other vector like properties should become a single
vector property instead of multiple X/Y properties.
* Almost no properties have descriptions, these would be good to
have for docs and tooltips.
So, please verify that the properties of the operators you wrote are
well defined.
- Finished adding primitives in Mesh editmode.
For test pleasure: hotkeys CTRL 0-9 add them.
More fun for testers:
- F3: gives menu of all registered ops. You can use
it too, it then execs it again, and makes it the
last executed operator.
- F4: executes last registered operator without menu.
- Depricated another bunch of globals; all the totobj,
totmesh, totvert, and so on.
- All code that needs such totals now count it themselves,
these stats were not supposed to be reliable
- Editmesh now stores and manages own totals.
- Todo: make a scene->stats that tracks notifiers.
Bugfix: selecting failed in editmesh, backbuffer stuff was
too late, already using index ranges before it was set.
Editmesh: add primitive basics back. Had to clean up a load of
crap there... but it's sorta in control, so I think Shul can
pick it up again.
Test: ctrl+0 adds plane, or ctrl+9 adds grid.
Notes for Shul:
- i've added a transform function, which gets correctly passed
on to the add_prim function, should work for all object
transforms. Only the code inside add_prim might be needed
to check (it uses 4x4 mat now, not a 3x3)
- The old code with buttons has been ifdeffed out, check for
user input and make it rna properties, which get read
in the exec(), and handed over to the add_prim. Set them
default now to the values from old buttons.
- Operator naming is preferred lower case, I gave this
a new name.
- check a bit on formatting code, but don't use the old code
as example! Look also at ED_keymap_mesh() for example.
soc-2008-nicholasbishop branch.
Note: any old code with multires_test() or multires_level1_test() can
just be deleted, not needed by the multires modifier.
Think global, act local!
The old favorite G.scene gone! Man... that took almost 2 days.
Also removed G.curscreen and G.edbo.
Not everything could get solved; here's some notes.
- modifiers now store current scene in ModifierData. This is not
meant for permanent, but it can probably stick there until we
cleaned the anim system and depsgraph to cope better with
timing issues.
- Game engine G.scene should become an argument for staring it.
Didn't solve this yet.
- Texture nodes should get scene cfra, but the current implementation
is too tightly wrapped to do it easily.
From the anti-globalization department:
G.obedit terminated!
Wherever possible, use CTX_data_edit_object(C) to get this
now. It's stored in scene now, and the screen context has
it defined.
- Edit mode Mesh undo/redo back
(undo for editmodes needed recode, todo for curve/lattice/etc)
- Added border select for edit mesh
- Added Akey (de)select all for edit mesh
- Added notifiers for mode changes.
This is also the first trial to dynamically add/remove
keymap handlers, based on modes. For that reason the Object
keymap was split in 2, modal and non-modal. On TABkey, the
view3d listener removes and adds maps.
The view3d keymap still handles generic mouse/border selection.
Internally it will verify modes.
The modes are not re-implemented still... have to move this
to scene context.
So, editmode mesh is back! :)
At the moment only TABkey works and mouse select, 1 vertex at a
time. More will follow of course.
Note for the devs:
- G.editMesh has been removed, be careful with old code.
- EditMesh now is property of Mesh itself
Although it means unlimited editmodes, for migration purposes we
better stick to 1 "obedit" per scene, which is in Context too
- G.obedit will get removed soon, so use CTX_data_edit_object(C)
Or if you can't, just scene->obedit for now
- Also removed the CTX_data_edit_mesh(), this has no meaning
anymore. EditMesh is not context senstitive anymore, only the
edit-object for time being is.
- Martin: I've already tucked some EditMesh pointer in T and
removed all G.editMesh there.
Editmesh code cleaned and compiling/linking. A whopping
20k lines back! :)
Not that it does stuff... editmode in/out has to be done,
and loads of operators. Also linking/exporting editmesh
calls has to be reviewed.
Also: added a blender_test_break() mechanism in BKE.
