enabled antialiasing, overriding application settings.
The fix for this got lost when the FSAA option was added and later disabled
again. Added it back now, and also disable AA for UI widgets since it makes
them look too blurry, they already do their own AA.
Previous state:
Right now, there are "memories" of the "old" (less than a month!) translation way:
* A few remaining calls to BLF_gettext() (only UI_translate_do_iface and UI_translate_do_tooltip should be used).
* The _() macro still also calls BLF_gettext()!
New state:
Here are the changes made by the patch:
* Removing the no more needed _() macro.
* Removing most N_() and _() calls, only keeping the few needed ones (i.e. strings that are in no other way findable by xgettext and/or update_msg script).
* Defining in UI_interface.h IFACE_() and TIP_() macros (resp. for UI_translate_do_iface and UI_translate_do_tooltip).
* Replacing all calls to BLF_gettext by relevant IFACE_ or TIP_ one.
* Replacing all calls to UI_translate_do_iface by IFACE_.
* Replacing all calls to UI_translate_do_tooltip by TIP_.
All this somewhat clarifies and simplifies the code.
On the bf-translations scripts side, this only implies adding IFACE_ and TIP_ as detection markers for xgettext.
It also allows to reduce POTFILES.in quite notably (only 20 files remaining in it).

- use BLI_strncpy_utf8 for utf8 buttons when pasting.
- reuse code for ui_textedit_type_ascii / ui_textedit_type_utf8.
- use memmove rather then for() loops in string editing.
- merge jump/all arguments in interface_handlers.c into one enum arg.
- use TRUE/FALSE rather than 1/0
- WM_operator_properties_create_ptr rather than WM_operator_properties_create since the pointers available.
- remove redundant strlen()
- The operator its self was registered so resetting the defaults would unhelpfully replace the toolbar with the reset to defaults operator panel.
- The callback for the operator wasnt being used so the settings were changed but the operator didnt re-run.
- Make gettext stuff draw-time. so switching between languages
can happens without restart now.
- Added option to translate visible interface (menus, buttons, labels)
and tooltips. Now it's possible to have english UI and localized tooltips.
- Clean-up sources, do not use gettext stuff for things which can be
collected with RNA.
- Fix issues with windows 64bit and ru_RU locale on my desktop
(it was codepage issue).
- Added operator "Get Messages" which generates new text block with
with all strings collected from RNA.
- Changed script for updating blender.pot so now it appends
messages collected from rna to automatically gathered messages.
To update .pot you have to re-generate messages.txt using "Get Messages"
operator and then run update_pot script.
- Clean up old translation stuff which wasn't used and most probably
wouldn't be used.
- Return back "International Fonts" option, so if it's disabled, no
gettext lookups happens on draw.
- Merged read_homefile function back. No need in splitting it.
TODO:
- Custom fonts and font size.
Current font isn't nice at least for russian locale, it's
difficult to read it.
- Put references to messages.txt so gettext can merge translation when
name/description of some property changes.
- operator strings were doing undo pushes (in fileselector text for example), this is dumb since the operators themselves handle undo.
- interface code checks rna props are arrays rather then checking the array length.
- disable properties window pin undoing.
- sequencer refresh was calling undo, disable since this is clearnign global data not handled by undo.
- added commented out code for drawing mesh vertex index/key index, useful for debugging shapekey - hook issyes.
added _prop suffix to ui functions which take a prop rather then a propname, may change this later since its not that nice but for gsoc branches this keeps existing UI functions working the same.
This commit makes some tweaks to the way that the "active keyframe"
settings in the Properties region in the Graph Editor work (for the
better, hopefully).
Basically, the problem was that previously, these were clunky and non-
intuitive to use, since they were just directly displaying the RNA
properties for those keyframes for editing purposes. But due to
limitations of RNA (i.e. from a RNA pointer to a keyframe, you
couldn't see which F-Curve you came from), several things were
impossible, notably:
1) Doing proper updates, including validating that the handles are in
a valid state - that requires access to the F-Curve to provide to the
F-Curve-based curve validity checking functions
2) Having the values of the keyframes display in whatever unit that
the property the F-Curve affects displays as - for this, you once
again need to know the F-Curve in order to resolve the property that
it affects; also the fact that only a single unit could be set for RNA
properties further limited things
This commit basically gets around these problems by moving away from a
layout-engine based approach to one where we attach custom update
callbacks and also override the units of the y-co widgets when
creating the widgets for these, thus allowing the buttons to work in
the ways that animators expect.
It is now possible to create "scripted expression" drivers by simply
clicking on some property, and typing some short Python expression
prefixed with a '#'. This will result in a scripted expression driver,
with the typed-in text being created.
For example, you can click on X-Location of the default cube, and
type:
#sin(frame)
and a new driver will be created for the x-location of the cube. This
will use the current frame value, and modulate this with a sine wave.
Do note though, that the current frame is a special case here. In the
current implementation, a special "frame" driver variable, which
references the current scene frame is created automatically, so that
this simple and (assumed) common case will work straight out of the
box.
Future improvements:
- Explore possibilities of semi-automated extraction of variables from
such expressions, resulting in automated variable extraction. (Doing
away with variables completely is definitely 100% off the agenda
though)
- Look into some ways of defining some shorthands for referencing
local data (possibly related to variable extraction?)
