* API and usage is basically the same still.
* Panels were moved to region level. I first thought of keeping them at area
level, but having them at region level it's simpler to handle events and do
drawing, and also to integrate with view2d. They can still become area level
overlapping regions, if we make a floating (or docked) region that can
contain panels.
* Added back a few panels from the scene buttons for testing.
Issues still:
* The view2d handling and alignment refresh of panels is not correct yet in the
buttons window.
* I did not yet bring back the block handlers system. It was basically a system
that stored which panel was open and where the events for that panel would go.
Just a few functions, but not sure how it fits in 2.5.
* There was a case where dragging panels would not properly remove the window
level handler, but could not redo anymore even though I don't think I fixed
it.
* Some text in the panels goes past the end of the button, that is due to the
checkmark button drawing, not related to this commit.
Other UI code changes:
* Renamed interface.h to interface_intern.h for consistency.
* Fixed some issues with freeing of blocks when they changed due to context.
* uiDrawBlock now takes a context pointer (mostly for block drawextra).
Object: converted the old horrible editobject.c, now as file:
editors/object/object_edit.c
Still lots of WIP, I've operatorified "Make Parent". Check here
the new API at work: http://pasteall.org/3650/c
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR BRECHT:
game property defines were clashing with RNA, i've renamed game
defines for now.
Better implementation of own window timers, not using ghost.
That makes blender's WM nice in control, and gives callers
of timers the opportunitie to evaluate time passed since
previous step. This system also only generates one timer
event per main loop (events - handlers - notifiers - draw)
Small fix: allow keymap modifier to give KM_ANY to ignore
modifier keys, this to have TIMER keymap work.
Added 'header print' feature back.
ED_area_headerprint(ScrArea *sa, const char *str);
Give it a NULL string to disable the feature.
On each call it tags the header for redraw.
* Fixed current frame number drawing in Animation Editors, so that the little frame number indicator box gets shown (animsys2 feature).
* Made all Animation Editors draw markers and preview range
- removed context usage, should not be in this module
- remove G.main usage, now is passed along
- still some globals in use here, goal is to get rid of those too,
so that it's possible to load/save blendfiles without having to
think about some global state.
Merged 'backend' changes from AnimSys2. Many of these changes are necessary for the Dopesheet and other changes I'm currently still stabilising. Those will come in due course.
* Added flags to View2D to specify whether the view should have pixel offsets applied (this is able to be specified per axis, just in case the need arises). Currently, this is only used for headers, where the UI elements were not as smooth + round as they could be
* Fixed IPO/Action/NLA so that new instance will show channel lists by default and with scrollers
* Fixed Outliner zoom-in/out on changing windowsize. I didn't notice this on my previous custom .B.blend file, but the problem was apparent in the default setup.
Now, preset view configurations are only to be used if they define all (scrollers not included) relevant settings for the view they are set for. This should be less confusing than in the previous situation with V2D_COMMONVIEW_TIMELINE stuff.
One implication of this though, is that all Animation Editors (for example), will have to define their own version of the relatively commonly shared info. However, given the great diversity in the range of settings each have, this should not be too much of an issue.
Also, added a 'standard' view config for main 'window' regions. At this stage, it is recommended that this view config should be used only as a placeholder template on which a set of custom settings could be based. I've put it into use for the buttons window/scripts window/info window so far.
Improved the View2D API so that initialising View2D data in init() callbacks (called on new regions and also on resizing regions) for regions is easier.
Added a few preset view configurations for use when initialising new views. Views with the V2D_IS_INITIALISED flag set will not be reinitialised in the init() callbacks. Currently, some of these configurations will set/override all settings (like V2D_COMMONVIEW_LIST and V2D_COMMONVIEW_HEADER), while other ones serve a more supplimentary role (i.e. V2D_COMMONVIEW_TIMELINE only sets the x-axis settings, relying on the region to have already set the relevant y-axis settings).
The future of such supplimentary configurations is yet to be seen, as I'm currently not sure whether they will cause the code to become too confusing, as you'd have to keep track of which settings belong/are set where. So far, only a few areas have been ported to use this. Tomorrow I'll check on a few more.
As this commit touches a lot of files, hopefully there aren't any critical bugs I've missed here.
- depricated area "headbutofs" and "headbutlen", which is now fully
replaced with view2d handling.
- needed to add header default V2D_ALIGN_NO_NEG_Y, V2D_LOCKOFS_Y seems
to not do anything atm :)
- new: running blender in debug (blender -d) will print the current
handler and operator in use (not mousemove)
I've gone through and simplified some of the redundant options while documenting the various settings (in the code and also in the Wiki Doc), to make it clearer how to use each option.
'Preset' view-types have yet to be fully implemented, but started groundwork for this. Only some commonly used view configurations will be defined using this method. For all others, they still need to define all relavent view settings themselves (as there's too much variation in terms of the various editor's use of View2D).
IPO Editor now draws with channels on the left, like all other anim editors. Now, how to make this wider...
that is not supposed to be in the editor but at blenkernel level
to avoid bad level calls. Added sequencer free and strip iterator
functions there and used them to make sequencer data load/save
work again.
The basics for InfoSpace.
Also added InfoSpace data to area by default, older files allowed to
have nothing here (space empty). (prevents reported crasher in switching
space info to others).
Also: added ifdeffed code in readfile.c to debug missing memory frees
from data read from files. (instead of "data from SCR" it will print
the actual struct names).
Added freeing functions in outliner space, this makes blender quit
without memory free errors in my test .b.blends.
Note: I'll move current rna viewer to new SpaceData editor, then I
can bring back original outliner stuff. Proposed menu name is
"Data Viewer". Probably better not not expose name 'rna' in UI?
* Scrollers now draw using nice rounded+shaded style everywhere
* When scrollers 'bubble' completely fills a scroller or is completely out of view, the view zooming using the handles is now only activated if the mouse is within a quarter of the total length of the scroller on either end of the scroller. Otherwise, pan is activated. This should make the scrollers more usable in anim editors.
* Fixed drawing of gridlines in TimeLine - needed to adjust ymin value of cur and tot rects to accomodate for the new mask/cur adjustments as old TimeLines didn't draw with 'real' scrollbars. Also, adjusted min/max values to fit these new tot/cur rect y-sizes.
* Tidying up vars and fixing errors in declaring new View2D types in preparation for simpler method of initialising views...
IPO Editor Fixes:
* Grid now draws correct. Fixed typo in gridline calculations preventing drawing from occurring. Also, set the right arguments to the appropriate View2D calls.
* Limited Ton's cur<->mask mapping 'hack' to Outliner only, as it was causing problems with the drawing of the grid. Perhaps there's still some faulty code in curRect_validate that should be changed instead...
* Horizontal scroller draws frames now by default. However, the values are still offset a bit, so will need further investigation.
Outliner Fixes:
* Fixed overlapping text problem with RNA-path and menus. Now RNA path draws as a label beside the menus, so there shouldn't be any more problems there.
* do_versions code now sets all appropriate flags, as old OOPS views could cause errors with scroller drawing + view manipulation operators which depend on flags being set.
- found fix for time-space view2d when increasing height of area, it has min/max Y zoom stored based on size of area... needs
smarter way.
- outliner: header file added, area switch menu + dummy pulldown.
this will become template for other space types...
Fixes in view2d:
- mask/slider rects were calculated wrong 1 pixel (was overlapping)
- found bug with outliner stretching on area-edge-dragging. It required
an extra mapping of the 'cur view' via mask to actual region.
- added v2d sanity check for uninitialized v2d's
- removed cruft in do_versions for headers (gets catched with above)
- added header-view2d-initialize function, for new-space calls
Fixes in areamanager:
- fixes in 'new space' for time/outliner/view2d
(unfinished)
For Joshua:
- Making time window higher shows it doesn't update 'cur'. Not sure
what kind of v2d flag should be checked or set?
Scrollers now draw in the 'rounded + shaded' style as much of the rest of Blender now. This is just a rough draft of what they could look like (vertical scrollbers in particular highlight the need for a complementary version of gl_round_box_shade).
Today's progress; half working, but i better commit to prevent
conflicts tomorrow :)
- added storage for regions in spacedata
- added space switching (unfinished, gives mem-free errors)
- bugfix: icon of timewindow gave error on split-area
- cleaned interface_icons.c a bit, no warnings
- first work on space new() callbacks, they have to make regions too
NOTE: probably files saved with 2.5 crash now. Have to look at
patching this.
NOTE2: the Makefiles required libeditor screen twice... scons too?
Added support for panning headers using View2D of the header regions (only done for TimeLine, as only that one has buttons on it).
Currently, this uses some do_versions magic to initialise the View2D rects required, however, I'm not sure if all the information was safely ported over yet (notably height and position of rects due to alignment issues).
In the process, I noticed a few bugs with the current View2D code:
* UI_view2d_curRect_validate() is now called after UI_view2d_size_update(), as the size of the 'mask' rect is closely related to the size of the 'cur' rect (especially when zooming is locked).
* Fixed a bug in UI_view2d_curRect_validate() which meant that if the 'cur' rect was slightly larger than the 'tot' rect, and keeptot was set, the view would flicker between the two closely related positions.
Cleanup in area/region management
- more intelligence in area management for adding handlers and setting
data correct. Space/Region type callbacks only have to do own things.
- added option for adding default handlers to areas/regions. (flag in
type definition)
- ensured that region-types store the minsizes for regions.
- added boundbox check for handlers; note that it accepts pointer to
boundbox, because handlers don't get reset on area-resizing or
view changes. Example: view2d handlers use mask rect.
- handlers get now added on correct context levels (example frame change
also worked in header)
- removed ->refresh() callback. Context refreshing is Listener.
- the ->init() is being called on all WM level actions, also after a
file read, moving areas, re-opening areas etc.
- fixed bug: crash on exit was caused by cleaning up Screen too late.
- UI_view2d_size_update() removed from draw callback, is init()
- regions now store (winx, winy) subwindow size.
Part one of wrapping up area/region management.
Read design doc here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/AreaManager
This commit:
- brings keymap storage to WM, based on names/types. This structure
allows rna-ifying it too, so you can browse keymaps etc.
- creating areas and regions works slightly different now, wich
regiontypes stored in areatype.
Todo:
- better callbacks and structure for defining which handlers need to
be added.
- using region types to validate regions
- proper implementation of local region data
- code method for customizing keymaps. Current idea is that you have
to indicate an entire keymap to be custom, to prevent too complicated
merging problems of default and custom maps (like order, multiple keys
for same operator, disabling options, etc).
Implemented operator to work with scrollers. This should work reasonably well, but as always, more testing is needed.
* LMB-drag can now be used to initiate manipulations of scrollbars (so they can be dragged as per normal)
* By clicking on the 'dark regions' on the ends of the scroll bubble, it is possible to zoom the view (in a way similar to Sony Vegas scrollbars)
Tidied up code of other operators
* Re-labelled the current zoom operators, as there is still a modal click-drag zoom tool to be ported still
* Marked all of the existing view manipulation operators as redoable. Scrollers manipulator is not allowed to be redoable.
Assorted changes:
* Added more flags for Outliner on reading old files, to prevent more weird things happening as code expects certain flags these days
This commit *should* bring UI_view2d_status_enforce() (formerly known in pre 2.5 as test_view2d) under control again.
I've attempted to reduce the amount of duplicated code here, so hopefully there won't be any nasty bugs that will show up in some of the other views when they are ported.
Summary of changes:
* Restored V2D_KEEPZOOM flag which I had previously removed, having misunderstood its function.
* Fixed bugs with resizing Outliner window
* Outliner width is now columns + 1 again. Documented reasons for this (otherwise, stuff gets covered by scrollbars, but we cannot see it)
* Cleaned up flags defined for View2D, and added some for defining the alignment of the view's data in the 'tot' rect (i.e. which quadrant(s) the view data is allowed to reside in).
* These flags are used in the new UI_view2d_totRect_set() function, which sets the new size of the 'tot' rect (i.e. the maximum viewable area). Currently, is only used for Outliner, but channel-lists also require this.
* Added API method to reset 'cur' (current viewing region) to 'default' viewing region - UI_view2d_curRect_reset(). Currently, 'keepzoom' is not respected. I'll check on whether this is needed when I recode UI_view2d_status_enforce(), which is badly in need of a cleanup.
* Changes in interface/ module
This commit brings back the way how buttons/menus work under control
of WM event system. The previous implementation extended usage of
handlers and operators in an interesting but confusing way. Better to
try it first according the design specs. :)
Most obviously:
- modal-handler operators are not stored anymore in regions/areas/windows.
such modal handlers own their operator, and should remove it themselves.
- removed code to move handlers from one queue to another.
(needs review with brecht!)
- WM fix: the API call to remove a modal handler got removed. This was a
dangerous thing anyway, and you should leave that to the event system.
Now, if a handler modal() call gets a cancel/finish return, it frees
itself in event system. WM_event_remove_modal_handler was a confusing
call anyway!
Todo:
- allow button-activate to refresh after using button
- re-enable arrow keys for menus
(do both after commit)
- review return values of operator callbacks in interface_ops.c
* Fixes in WM system
- Freeing areas/regions/windows, also on quit, now correctly closes
running modal handlers
- On starting a modal handler, the handler now stores previous area
and region context, so they send proper notifiers etc.
* Other fixes
- Area-split operator had bug, wrong minimal size checking. This
solves error when trying to split a very narrow area.
- removed DNA_USHORT_FIX from screen_types.h, gave warning
- operators didn't get ID name copied when activated, needed for
later re-use or saving.
* Added basic (non-modal) zoom operators that use a uniform scale factor, with zoom centered using the view center as scaling point. Use Scrollwheel up/down and Pad +/- to use this.
* Added back the 'button'/bubble for the scrollbars. I've added dark lines on either end of it for some later work on zooming widgets.
This is not the final form they'll take. I still need to decide how to handle those scrollbars which act as grid-markers too (showing timescale, etc.), before trying to integrate that with some fancy scrollbar drawing (rounded, etc.)
Assorted changes:
* Moved vertical scrollbar for Outliner to right hand side
* Made Timeline use standard scrollbars, and turned on various clamping options
* Fixed ortho-matrix corrections for scrollbars, and added pixel offsets
* Made Timeline markers sit more snugly on the scrollbar. They were a bit far out...
* Fixed memory leak with view2d keymaps not being freed when Blender exited
* Moved View2D data from space-data to ARegion (aka regions). This has been done because drawing occurs in regions not areas anymore. The View2D struct is currently stored in the ARegion struct (not as pointer), given that most of the regions in use will be 2D anyway (only the 3d-view's "window" region is the exception).
Added version patch code for outliner and timeline only for now. Headers are also likely to need this.
* Added separate keymap for View2D operators. All regions that use View2D will need this added. This includes headers too.
* Pan view operator (ED_View2D_OT_view_pan), currently works for Outliner and Timeline. Use MMB-drag as before.
- It currently doesn't exposed any parameters for redo (via RNA-ID-Props), but only uses some customdata. Suggestions on what these parameters could be are welcomed.
- I've yet to implement the necessary axis-locking features for this panning (which is required in Timeline for example to prevent vertical panning, which moves the markers out of view).
Since we'll reshuffle a lot in UI code, making new Screens totally
incompatible, this patch saves the Screen chunk in Blender files
with a new identifier (ID_SCRN), causing it to be not read in old
Blender binaries. Pre-2.50 blender already has a facility to recover
from this (it keeps old UI), including for .B.blends (it opens
default simple screen)
For the latter reason, it might be advisable to have the .B.blend
for 2.50+ saved as another name? Then you can use both for while.
(Note: commit is just 3 lines of code, other files are comments I
added for documentation of other stuff)
svn merge https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/blender -r12987:17416
Issues:
* GHOST/X11 had conflicting changes. Some code was added in 2.5, which was
later added in trunk also, but reverted partially, specifically revision
16683. I have left out this reversion in the 2.5 branch since I think it is
needed there.
http://projects.blender.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php?view=rev&root=bf-blender&revision=16683
* Scons had various conflicting changes, I decided to go with trunk version
for everything except priorities and some library renaming.
* In creator.c, there were various fixes and fixes for fixes related to the -w
-W and -p options. In 2.5 -w and -W is not coded yet, and -p is done
differently. Since this is changed so much, and I don't think those fixes
would be needed in 2.5, I've left them out.
* Also in creator.c: there was code for a python bugfix where the screen was not
initialized when running with -P. The code that initializes the screen there
I had to disable, that can't work in 2.5 anymore but left it commented as a
reminder.
Further I had to disable some new function calls. using src/ and python/, as
was done already in this branch, disabled function calls:
* bpath.c: error reporting
* BME_conversions.c: editmesh conversion functions.
* SHD_dynamic: disabled almost completely, there is no python/.
* KX_PythonInit.cpp and Ketsji/ build files: Mathutils is not there, disabled.
* text.c: clipboard copy call.
* object.c: OB_SUPPORT_MATERIAL.
* DerivedMesh.c and subsurf_ccg, stipple_quarttone.
Still to be done:
* Go over files and functions that were moved to a different location but could
still use changes that were done in trunk.
Robin (Frrr) Allen did a decent job on this, so we can also welcome him
as a member in the svn committers team to maintain it!
I do the first commit with some minor fixes:
- get Makefiles work
- fix rounding issue with tiles on unit faces
- removed UI includes from tex node
A nice doc in wiki is here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Frr/TexnodeManual
On the todo for Robin is:
- When using one or more Texture-input nodes, you cannot edit them by activating
(as works now for Material nodes).
- The new "output node" option fails on the default case, when only one
output node is active. It then shows often a blank menu. Will get fixed asap.
- When using a NodeTree-Texture as input node, the menu for 'active output'
should not show. NodeTree should ignore other nodetrees to keep things sane
for now.
- On a future todo is proper usage of "Dxt" and "Dyt" texture vectors for
superior antialising of checkers/bricks.
General note; I know people are dying to get a full integrated shader system
with nodes. In theory we could merge this with Material Nodetrees... but I
rather wait for a solid and very well thought out design proposal for this,
also including design ideas for unifying with a shader language (GPU, CPU).
For the time being this is a nice extension of current textures. :)
* Added functions to generate Timer events. There was some unfinished code to
create one timer per window, this replaces that with a way to let operators
or other handlers add/remove their own timers as needed. This is currently
delivered as an event with the timer handle, perhaps this should be a notifier
instead? Also includes some fixes in ghost for timer events that were not
delivered in time, due to passing negative timeout.
* Added a Message event, which is a generic event that can be added by any
operator. This is used in the UI code to communicate the results of opened
blocks. Again, this may be better as a notifier.
* These two events should not be blocked as they are intended for a specific
operator or handler, so there were exceptions added for this, which is one
of the reasons they might work better as notifiers, but currently these
things can't listen to notifier yet.
* Added an option to events to indicate if the customdata should be freed or
not.
* Added a free() callback for area regions, and added a free function for
area regions in blenkernel since it was already there for screens and areas.
* Added ED_screen/area/region_exit functions to clean up things like operators
and handlers when they are closed.
* Added screen level regions, these will draw over areas boundaries, with the
last created region on top. These are useful for tooltips, menus, etc, and
are not saved to file. It's using the same ARegion struct as areas to avoid
code duplication, but perhaps that should be renamed then. Note that redraws
currently go correct, because only full window redraws are used, for partial
redraws without any frontbuffer drawing, the window manager needs to get
support for compositing subwindows.
* Minor changes in the subwindow code to retrieve the matrix, and moved
setlinestyle to glutil.c.
* Reversed argument order in WM_event_add/remove_keymap_handler to be consistent
with modal_handler.
* Operators can now block events but not necessarily cancel/finish.
* Modal operators are now stored in a list in the window/area/region they were
created in. This means for example that when a transform operator is invoked
from a region but registers a handler at the window level (since mouse motion
across areas should work), it will still get removed when the region is closed
while the operator is running.
* When making a proxy, the lib linked IPO driver was also changed to
point to the proxy object, and after undo this local proxy object
was replaced so the pointer became invalid. In fact it is not needed
at all to change this because the IPO code maps the pointer to the
local proxy object already.
* Undoing the make proxy operation would crash because the proxy_from
pointer in the library linked object would still point to the removed
object. Now it clears all these pointers before undo, because on each
undo memory file read they will be set again anyway.
