- Replaced hardcoded nurbcol array with theme colors
- Send notification in duplicate curve operator (this operator could
reset/change active nurb)
- Edge seam color added to the user preferences dialog
image.py has a function image_editor_guess(), please test on windows and mac. (using 'startfile' and 'open')
this is only used when the image editor is not set.
* I put it under General->System. Not sure is the better place for it though (space_userpref.py)
** also: creator.c fix to avoid autoplay of games when scripts are disabled.
* Added a user-preference setting which disallows setting the current frame number to a negative number. This setting only applies when setting the current frame by scrubbing the time cursor in a timeline view, or by typing a value into the current frame number field.
* Made the minimum frame number for the start frame to be 0, which should make setting keyframes by a regular step size less confusing. Also changed the MINFRAME define to 0 for consistency. Hopefully this doesn't cause any problems with any output formats.
* Fixed some missing channel selection cases in animation editors.
and made that the default for windows software opengl because that
seems to be working better at least on XP. Previously this could only
be specified from the command line.
set the draw method to triple buffer or overlap depending on the
configuration. Ideally I could get all cases working well with triple
buffer but it's hard in practice. At the moment there are two cases
that use overlap instead:
* opensource ATI drives on linux
* windows software renderer
Also added a utility function to check GPU device/os/driver.
This commit introduces a few cleanups and tweaks to the way that timecodes (i.e. the timing indications used instead of frame numbers) get displayed.
1. Custom Spacing of TimeCodes/Gridlines
Made the minimum number of pixels between gridlines/timecode indications a user-preference, instead of being a hardcoded constant. This allows to set the spacing tighter/looser than the defaults, and is also used for the other changes.
2. Default timecode display style, (now named 'minimal') uses '+' as the delimeter for the sub-second frames. This hopefully makes it a bit clearer what those values represent, as opposed to the '!', which can sometimes look too much like a colon.
3. Added various timecode display styles as user-preference. - These include always displaying full SMPTE, to showing milliseconds instead of frams for sub-second times, and also an option to just show the times as seconds only.
- When changing the timecode style, the spacing setting is automatically modified so that the timecodes are spaced far apart enough so that they won't clash (under most circumstances). This automatic modification is only done if the spacing is too tight for the style being set.
4. Unified the code for generating timecode strings between the View2D scrollbar drawing and the current frame indicator drawing.
This patch by Guillaume Lecocq (lguillaume) adds user preference settings for setting the playback frame-rate and delay between captured frames for the screencasting feature.

I've made a few tweaks for a few minor issues
- Made DNA vars for these settings shorts instead of ints, reducing the number of unnecessary extra pad vars
- Added version patching to ensure that these settings are initialised by default
- Made tooltips for the settings more descriptive
* Added a generic 'histogram' ui control, currently available in new image editor
'scopes' region (shortcut P). Shows the histogram of the currently viewed image.
It's a baby step in unifying the functionality and code from the sequence editor,
so eventually we can migrate the sequence preview to the image editor too,
like compositor.
Still a couple of rough edges to tweak, regarding when it updates. Also would
be very nice to have this region as a partially transparent overlapping region...
* Added Theme support for the console.
You can change:
-Header Color
-Text Color of Output, Input, Info and Error Messages. (Inside the User Preferences -> Themes)
*Some more cleanup.
*Renamed active_theme to theme_area, active_theme will be useful, when we have multiple themes again.
*New layout (Theme Area selection is now expanded).
ToDo:
* Nice wrapping of all options for the different spaces, either manual or via auto generation.
Some items are missing, some are in different positions, altough they are available in different areas.
* Added a User-Pref option for the "XYZ to RGB" colour-mode setting for new F-Curves to compliment the one used for Keying Sets. With this option enabled, the builtin Keying Sets also can obey this option.
* Made all places that were previously manually checking the flags for keyframing to use a standard API function to do this now.
* Fixed bug introduced earlier today in commit 25353 by reverting the changes to keyingsets.c. Forgot that delete_keyframe doesn't handle do the "entire array" hack with array_index = -1
* Fixed bug with the insert-keyframe code for the array_index = -1 case, where too many channels were being keyed (i.e. an imaginary channel was often keyed in addition to the valid ones)
Also put a bit more logic for guessing player paths based on my system.
If anyone can make this a bit more clever/bulletproof, please feel free to
get involved in it, it's all python!
customisable player.
You can choose a player in User Preferences -> File Paths. You can
choose a plan custom command line, otherwise there are presets available
for the Blender 2.4 player or DJV (where it will give it the correct filename,
fps, etc on the command line). So for example if you have a Blender 2.4
version installed, you can enter the path to the blender 2.4 executable,
and the playback will work just like before.
Any info on other frame players (FrameCycler? pdplayer?) and their
command line settings could be useful for adding some more presets too,
if anyone knows of them.
It's available in Render->Play Rendered Animation (Ctrl F11)
* Property update functions no longer get context, instead they get only
Main and Scene. The RNA api was intended to be as context-less as
possible, since it doesn't really matter who is changing the property,
everything that uses the property should be updated.
* There's still one exception case that use it now, screen operations
still depend on context too much. It also revealed a few places using
context where they shouldn't.
* Ideally Scene shouldn't be passed, but much of Blender still depends on
it, should be dropped when we try to support multiple scene editing.
Change was planned for a while, but need this now to be able to call
update without a context pointer.
* Dolly zoom Vertical/Horizontal switch
Changes between using vertical or horizontal mouse movement for zooming
* Invert Zoom Direction
Inverts the vertical or horizontal mouse movement for dolly zoom
This changes the layout when the properties window gets too narrow to render the contents properly.
Currently implemented for render, scene, world, object and materials, but the rest can be done easily.
Here's a video for demonstration:

It automatically detects the window width and then skips the indicators that tells the layout to go to the next column. It requires very minimal changes to the UI scripts so we don't have to maintain two versions of the layouts.
This allows you to set and animate the values of socket inputs and outputs, for example the value node.
It's also a step on the way to manipulating node trees via python (i.e. linking node sockets to each other).
This fixes [#19841] RGB Node in compositor not working
