If this is needed we can add the reset button back as an option for certain operators,
but AFAICS any operator with enough settings that resetting them all would be annoying - could have presets enabled.
Code to support it was lying around for long already, but not controlled by UI nicely.
Now you have in user preferences "System" tab an option to set it.
NOTE:
- it only works saving as User startup.blend, and restart Blender.
- your system should support it, no check for it is visible in UI
- tested only on iMac OSX 10.7

This commit allows you to set the RGB <-> XYZ axis colours used for things like
the mini axis indicator, grid axis indicators, manipulators, transform
constraint indicators, F-Curves (when using XYZ to RGB colouring option), and
perhaps something else I've missed. Previously, these places all used hardcoded
defines (220 * i/j/k), but the readability of these colours was often quite
poor, especially when used with certain themes.
The settings for these colours can be found under the "User Interface" section
of the themes (i.e. same set of colours is used across editors). I could have
made these per editor, but since it's unlikely that these will need to be too
different across editors in practice (+ being easier to version patch), they are
stored under the UI section.
Now tile size is setting up explicitly instead of using number of tiles.
This allows better control over GPU performance, where having tiles aligned
to specific size makes lots of sense.
Still to come: need to update startup.blend to make tiles size 64x64.
This fixes some "regressions" introduced in rev50781 which lead to much
worse solution in some cases. Now it's possible to bring old behavior back.
Perhaps it's more like temporal solution for time being smarter solution is
found. But finding such a solution isn't so fast, so let's bring manual
control over reprojection usage.
But anyway, imo it's now nice to have a structure which could be used to
pass different settings to the solver.
* Add "Toggle Full Screen" and "Duplicate Area into New Window" operators to the view menu, was missing in those 2 operators. Patch [#33076] by Harley Acheson, thanks.
* Also moved those two operators to the top in text editor, for consistency.
* Patch [#33073] Remove Extra Menu Level from Object Parent and Track
* Did not commit the icon changes here, separator line should be sufficient.
Patch by Harley Acheson, thanks!
* Add 3 more operators to the Node menu.
node.join [join selected nodes in a new frame]
node.detach [remove selected nodes from their frame]
node.links_detach [remove all links to selected nodes and try to reconnect neighboring nodes together]
Patch by Philipp Oeser, thanks!
* Shader script node added, which stores either a link to a text datablock or
file on disk, and has functions to add and remove sockets.
* Callback RenderEngine.update_script_node(self, node) added for render engines
to compile the shader and update the node with new sockets.
Thanks to Thomas, Lukas and Dalai for the implementation.
Our current intl build for windows is quite old (don't know the exact version), and does not have the new setlocale overwrite. Problem is, new windows dll have no more the gettext_putenv helper, which is currently mandatory to make it work for this OS.
So back for now to the ugly long_locales for win. Best fix is probably to build our own static version of libl, but this is not trivial and will require some time. :/
PS: I had a look over i18n/translation in wxWidget, Qt and boost: all implement their own system, even though wxWidget and boost use po/mo files...
- Rename 'mesh.select_nth' operator menu item 'Every N Number of Verts' to 'Checker Deselect',
since its not just de-selecting verts (works on edges and faces too) and the term 'checker' gives a better description of the result.
- Rename 'mesh.select_by_number_vertices' to 'mesh.select_face_by_sides', since this is a face selection tool, which wasnt obvious from its name.
also remove dissolve by type menu since the option has been removed from the operator and was giving an error.
PATCH: [#32989] Activate backup files filter in File Browser
Contributed by Georg Kronthaler, many thanks!
(I just moved the icon to a different place reserved for file browser icons)
* enables the filtering of backup files in the file browser
* adds a 'filter backup files'-icon to the filter buttons
* adds new icons for backup files in list and thumbnail view
* enables file preview for the backup files
shows both title safe and action safe areas following more modern standards.
Patch #32822 by Harley Acheson, full description:
Our current "title safe" camera display option is anachronistic. It shows a
border of 10% on all edges, which used to be the recommended title safe area
for 4:3 content on standard definition CRT televisions. However we are very
unlikely to create new projects that output for SD TV at that aspect ratio.
This patch change the option to "safe areas" with and indicates the
"title safe" area (also known as "graphic safe") as well as the "action safe"
area. "Title Safe" is an area visible by all reasonably maintained sets, where
text was certain not to be cut off. "Action Safe" is a larger area that
represented where a "perfect" set (with high precision to allow less
overscanning) would cut the image off.
The current recommendation for Action Safe is 3.5% on all edges, which is the
maxiumum overscan for TVs now. The recommended title safe is now 5% vertically
and 10% horizontally for content that is of wider aspect ratio than 4:3. The
reason for the difference between horizontal versus vertical margin is because
wider content would be letterboxed on an older 4:3 television, giving it
additional margin.
- Disabled "Quick Cache" option. It was causing ridiculous updates
on the entire animation system for start-end frame on every user
event causing changes here (like during transform). Worst was that you
couldn't transform animated objects for that reason either.
Most of the code is still there, waiting for a moment to revise it...
- Constraint "Follow Track" (marker) wasn't using inverse matrix code
in transform, making it wacko to use (wrong pivot, crazyspace)
