- added 'ghosting' for while using translate/scaling widget
- added 'pie chart' ghost to denote angle while using rotate widget
- added settings to tweak widget in User menu (InfoWindow) "View & Control"
- Size: total widget size as percentage of window size
- Handle: as percentage of widget radius
- Hotspot: for clicking handles, in pixels
- Fized Size: option to make Widget size independent of window size
Not sure if all of these are useful to keep, but makes for good testing
in this stage.
Also: made #define to use new transform to be set TRUE by default now. :)
To use; press the (temporal) icon in header. Switching widget types is by
pressing G, R or S once, if current widget type is different it switches,
otherwise it goes to normal Transform().
Widgets need a bit test for picking accuracy, correct drawing etc.
The rotate widget has a center button for 'trackball' rotate. That latter
can also be used for hotkey-based rotate.
In current code, all widgets remain in "Global" space, also in editmode.
Also widget updates while using normal transform has to be done.
2 Bugfixes:
- rotate in PoseMode had error for 2d 'around' center
- transform in postemode could crash, due to typo (& or |)
- Made framework for 3d Transform Manipulators (widgets)
- The Manipulators act like '2d buttons', by default with LeftMouse and with
while-hold-move-release
- Implemented now: Translation Widget, which allows:
- four hotspots for axis grab or view-aligned grab
- center defined by 'around' setting
- SHIFT+LMB gives planar constraint on other 2 axes
- works in Object mode and Edit mode (not posemode yet)
Enable it with (temporal) icon in 3D header. All other 'normal' transforms
then keeps working btw.
On the todo for this widget:
- choice for Global, Local or Normal orientation
The way the widgets are going to work is in review still. Commit is also for
Matt for his proposal/paper on topic.
Some notes regarding this project;
- no life updates (on mouse over) like 3DS, I think that's neurotic
- on click, dominant axis changes to theme defined "Transform" color, other axes disappear, like maya
- manipulater size is fixed preset, independent zoom.
- manipulator follows selection, and is located based on 'around' mode
Unresolved;
- in maya, when you select 2 or more objects, the manipulator draws on the 'active' object, also interesting
- what to do with G,R,S hotkeys? It could switch the manipulator "mode"...
- header button/menu for manipulator mode?
Fixed Extrude constraint. Needed to premul the normal by the object's matrix to but it in global space.
Also, moved the Locking Axis modifier (for constraints) from Alt to Shift. Alt was conflicting with middle mouse button emulation (reported in the test builds forum).
Tilt Transformation.
Brought back Shrink/Fatten. Changed the behavior a bit, move the cursor to the right to move toward the normal, to the left to move backward. Please comment.
Only works with meshes, defaults to resize otherwise.
- restored 'Warp' (Shift+W). Should work like before, including type mode
and holding ctrl/shift modifiers
- added CTRL event in queue, to only redraw when you press it. looks nicer.
- added texture space grab/scale (TKEY objectmode)
- made new transform work with menus (meaning, dropping dreaded while-hold)
To Martin & other while-hold lovers: this needs to be carefully thought over
and designed. I prefer to look on this within context of making transform
fully tablet/pen friendly, as option. Aim now for me is still: get transform
back to work! :)
Brought back functionality to work with "Ipo Keys" (Kkey in 3d window). New
transform code is looking more messy now... its design was not purposed to
clean on this level. Acceptable for this stage however.
Also renamed old variables *tob into *td.
work. :)
- added static and (void) and some style stuff in transform.c
- first additions in code for posemode (do not even try now!)
- fixed warnings in previous commit martin (gcc only)
Note; posemode old transform had complex dependencies on redraw (Hos' home
grown dep graph), which is first being restored. Including old style
set_base_flags_for_editing. Tomorrow!
On a side note, Shear was fixed in last commit, just forgot to mention it. It wasn't acting correctly in Edit Mode (and Desoto was poking me about it every sunday).
