Now the mute/protect/expand/etc. toggles are drawn using UI widgets. This means that special event handling code to determine when they were clicked on is no longer needed, and also means that there can now be tooltips for these items too.
Also, added visibility toggles for ID-block expanders, which will cause all the F-Curves in the linked datablock to not get drawn. The backend filtering code to make this work will come later...
Cleanup of scroller drawing in 2D windows.

Will add 'zoom' widget circles later, as mockupped here:

Also note the scale values are inside scroller; drawing it
on top conflicts with current frame item and markers.
Currently scroller disappear entirely when view is total.
For Joshua:
To make sliders behave nicely, the boundbox (v2d->tot) has to
be refreshed on each change. I've added it in graph drawing
now, but it could be notifier based I guess... not sure what
the correct anim api call would be. Can discuss tomorrow!
On todo:
Layout config hints so people can make scroller positions swap.
Started cleaning up FModifiers in preparation for allowing them to be used on NLA Strips.
This commit separates the 'Built-in Function' mode for the Generator modifier out into its own modifier, since it was being quite frequently used (and the RNA wrapping for this used to be quite hackish).
BACKWARDS COMPATABILITY WARNING:
Old files with FModifiers saved (i.e. old 2.5 files, but not any others) will not load correctly as a result of these changes (the wrong modifiers will be shown). I've decided that there are not likely to be many files affected by this yet, but doing this will result in a much nicer modifiers-define list in the long run.
For now, some of these polls may be a bit too restrictive, but at least we have some unified+cleaned bases to work from now (instead of relying on the generic ED_operator_area_active).
As with the DopeSheet, the names of operators in the Graph Editor have been cleaned up, and operators have been added to menus as appropriate to show their availability.
Tweaked a few DopeSheet operator names to be more in line with the Graph Editor equivalents, and vica versa.
TODO: now, the operator poll callbacks here need checking...
* Fix buttons jumping around when resizing and zoom. Part of this was
adding a tiny a 0.001f offset in UI_view2d_view_ortho, otherwise the
rounding is unpredictable (used to be 0.375f, but that was disabled).
* Fix various issues with zooming, panning panels. V2D_LOCKOFS_X/Y is
now taken into account in more places in the view2d code, to avoid
zooming into the center or panning out of the view.
* Remove "Free" align mode in buttons window (it's not really useful).
* View3D/Graph/Image editors now use the same PanelType system as the
buttons window, means some deprecated panel code could be removed.
* Some small visual tweaks for panels.
* View 2D Reset operator (Home key), to reset zoom and panning for panels.
* Added argument to set number buttons as sliders (slider=True for itemR).
* Ignore labels for button alignment (doesn't look right).
* Fix some use of context.main in py scripts, should get data from active
object instead.
* Fix autotexspace -> auto_texspace in py script.
This feature takes a 'snapshot' of the visible+selected F-Curves, and displays these in the background as 'ghosts curves' in the background. Such curves are drawn semi-transparent, slightly darker, and with dotted lines.
To use, simply click the 'curve' button beside the Auto-Snapping selector. To clear, simply click that button again (with a different icon now).
These 'ghost curves' are stored per Graph Editor instance, and are not saved to file (i.e. per session only). They are useful to be used as guides when refining the shape of existing curves.
Now it is possible to add more keyframes to the 'active' F-Curve by simply Ctrl-LMB clicking in the graph space.
NOTE: more advanced polling callbacks are needed in the Graph Editor...
- 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
- Completed cleaning up the drawing code so that F-Curves with modifiers now get drawn to reflect this.
- Added a temporary operator to add modifiers (hotkey Ctrl-Shift-M)
This operator can be activated using the 'Alt-C' hotkey for now, and operates on selected + editable F-Curves. This is currently still highly experimental, and does crash
I've implemented this as a way to test out the FPoints/samples code, which will be used to provide better support of the dense F-Curves which result from importing Mocap/BVH data. These should use considerably less memory + have a few additional benefits over keyframes when they're working in a stable fashion.
Graph Editor: added region for buttons (properties), so we can
check drivers again! Works like view3d, press NKEY. No buttons
there yet though... no time anymore today, it'll require some
RNA magic probably.
As creator of the Ipo I also reserve to right to kick it out
definitely :) To honour the wonderful contributions from Joshua
here it is; renamed space_ipo to space_graph!
Note; make, cmake and scons should work, msvc will require some
work now!
