It seems that some of the Outliner hacks used while building the tree
was causing problems, as Make Single User (and potentially other code
working with ID-data, specifically with the "newid" value there) was
making use of the variable used there for other purposes, leading to
memory corruption.
This bug also occurred in 2.4x, though when I tested there, it crashed
immediately.
Ton, you may want to double-check this bug!
also minor functional changes
- OBJECT_OT_make_links_data() type property is now assigned to the operator property (so popup menu can find it)
- removing BG image now returns cancelled if no image is removed.
- OpenGL still render failed when output format was set to Movie.
Now it just doesn't save a file and renders anyway.
- Bone heat weight was missing 'wait cursor'.
- Waitcursor for Mac Cocoa is back! Made all OS's use the same
nice hourglass cursor.
(Note: this violates Mac UI guidelines, we should rely on the
spinning wheel of death instead. Highly disputable that.)
"Make Local" option "Objects and Data" made materials get
lost on save, the tagging was incorrect. Now it makes
Materials local too.
Implementation note: the code is new (not 2.4) so it misses
some of the hairy goodies we had. It's something for another
time to really make this reliably work.
Makes adding new flags give ambiguous results and also makes it less easy to tell whats intended.
In some places it looks like OB_RECALC_TIME should be left out too.
only tags the ID and does the actual flush/update delayed, before the next
redraw. For objects the update was already delayed, just flushing wasn't
yet.
This should help performance in python and animation editors, by making
calls to RNA property update quicker. Still need to add calls in a few
places where this was previously avoided due to bad performance.
Fixed old annoyance in Search menu, with a load of object-mode
operators showing up in editmode.
It's much cleaner now, but it will take further work and
investigation to have context & polls work satisfying for all cases.
- object updates were not being flushed, so children weren't updating.
- apply the matrix relative to the parent, added this as an option to object_apply_mat4() which allows assigning the worldspace matrix in python without worrying about the parent.
After discussions with Campbell regarding #24336 and #24309, we've decided to make this property for curves to only get set when an F-Curve explicitly animates it.
As a consequence...
- ALL OLD FILES using follow-path constraints that depended on this changed behaviour will currently need manual patching to add an appropriate F-Curve
- Ctrl-P (Parenting to Curves -> Follow Path option) will now automatically create such F-Curves mimicking the old behaviour so that creating camera-following-path setups still works smoothly.
- Directly adding a Follow Path constraint bypasses this, so you'll need to manually add such F-Curves if you need them.
The main problem with the old approach was that there were many cases in which curve data could get added but the ctime would be incorrect until a frame change (i.e. on render) flushed this.
also added api function ED_area_tag_redraw_regiontype(), so an area can redraw all regions by type.
In this case there is a view3d area listener that needs to draw all WINDOW regions.
- removed deprecated bitmap arg from IMB_allocImBuf (plugins will need updating).
- mostly tagged UNUSED() since some of these functions look like they may need to have the arguments used later.
The error for heat weighting was only being printed in the console, while the problem remains at least a warning is now given that there was a problem calculating the heat weight.
also fixed a memory leak from the mesh octree not being freed after assigning vertex groups. (ModNode error)
