Anim playback now uses "Sync" option, skipping frames to match
real time (as set by the frames/sec button).
This is a quicky for tests with audio. Note that the real time
in seconds to update sound to in ED_update_for_newframe() would be:
(scene->r.cfra / FPS) + screen->animtimer->duration
Also this can have a slight inaccuracy, the time between the timer
handler and the ED_update_for_newframe() notifier is not known,
but in general nearly zero. A better implementation is possible, but
thats for later. :)
- Added back CTRL+X "reload start-up file".
(Original name 'erase all' is a bit misleading, but we can
go over all naming conventions later :)
- Added memfree for triple buffer data.
Edit Mesh:
- Added back "Edge Shortest Path select"
It now also does regular selection, more fun!
It's mapped to CTRL+click now, and makes or clears selections
between current and previously activated edge.
Seam/Sharp/etc marking is a toolsetting mode still. These
options cannot become properties easily, because the tool
uses the properties of selected edge to clear...
- Removed a whole bunch of G.f flags, related to mesh drawing.
It's all now local in me->drawflags. Here's the list of
removed old globals:
G_DRAWEDGES
G_DRAWFACES
G_DRAWNORMALS
G_DRAW_VNORMALS
G_ALLEDGES
G_HIDDENEDGES
G_DRAWCREASES
G_DRAWSEAMS
G_DRAWSHARP
G_DRAWBWEIGHTS
G_DRAW_EDGELEN
G_DRAW_FACEAREA
G_DRAW_EDGEANG
Compositor now uses threaded jobs.
- updates happen per preview node! Check this file for
fun: http://www.blender.org/bf/composite_image.blend
(any compo node could get preview!)
- had to ensure the composite data gets fully copied before
it executes thread, so editing is not frustrated.
- put back node buttons (missing init)
- added WM_jobs api call to check for running job,
illustrated with red light icon in 'use nodes' button.
- added another callback to WM_jobs, to initialize.
use this init to ensure you only do it when job really
starts.
- added an extra notifier option for WM_jobs, to signal
finished job (like redraw image view)
- fixed file read error, it copied the screen it read,
instead of using it.
- commented out annoying prints for missing ops in imagewin
File reading of 2.50 files fixed.
- it now exits nicely from queues without using free'd memory
(checks CTX_wm_window(C) to be NULL)
- code that matched current (ghost) window with new situation
lacked setting a pointer good.
Overall cleaned some parts too; like context clears now all
wm related pointers when you set a new wm, window or area.
* Triple Buffer is now more complete:
- Proper handling of window resize, duplicate, etc.
- It now uses 3x3 textures (or less) if the power of two sizes
do not match well. That still has a worst case wast of 23.4%,
but better than 300%.
- It can also use the ARB/NV/EXT_texture_rectangle extension
now, which may be supported on hardware that does not support
ARB_texture_non_power_of_two.
- Gesture, menu and brushe redraws now require no redraws at all
from the area regions. So even on a high poly scene just moving
the paint cursor or opening a menu should be fast.
* Testing can be done by setting the "Window Draw Method" in the
User Preferences in the outliner. "Overlap" is still default,
since "Triple Buffer" has not been tested on computers other than
mine, would like to avoid crashing Blender on startup in case
there is a common bug, but it's ready for testing now.
- For reference "Full" draws the full window each time.
- "Triple Buffer" should work for both swap copy and swap exchange
systems, the latter still need the -E command line option for
"Overlap".
- Resizing and going fullscreen still gives flicker here but no
more than "Full" drawing.
* Partial Redraw was added. ED_region_tag_redraw_partial takes a
rect in window coordinates to define a subarea of the region.
On region draw it will then set glScissor to a smaller area, and
ar->drawrct will always be set to either the partial or full
window rect. The latter can then be used for clipping in the 3D
view or clipping interface drawing. Neither is implemented yet.
Editmesh code cleaned and compiling/linking. A whopping
20k lines back! :)
Not that it does stuff... editmode in/out has to be done,
and loads of operators. Also linking/exporting editmesh
calls has to be reviewed.
Also: added a blender_test_break() mechanism in BKE.
Notifier system upgrade, based on Brecht's doc.
Implementation notes:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/DataNotifiers#Implementation
In short: let's try to strictly communicate in a notifier what happened.
The listeners then can act themselves. It also means that a frame-changed
notifier doesn't send out redraws, the editors themselves can decide.
Timers: added extra 'event type' argument to call to add a timer:
WM_event_add_window_timer(win, event_type, interval)
This way other timer systems don't generate overhead on the queues.
(button timers were creating unused animation-playback operators)
Better implementation of own window timers, not using ghost.
That makes blender's WM nice in control, and gives callers
of timers the opportunitie to evaluate time passed since
previous step. This system also only generates one timer
event per main loop (events - handlers - notifiers - draw)
Small fix: allow keymap modifier to give KM_ANY to ignore
modifier keys, this to have TIMER keymap work.
Animated screen! (unfinished, now only draws, no animation code yet).
Fun though to see it all work. :)
NOTE: Mac ghost has timer bug, the GHOST_ProcessEvents() doesnt wake
up for timers.
NOTE2: Added while loop in wm_window_process_events() to force Ghost
giving all events to Blender. Timers otherwise don't accumulate...
might be needed to fix in ghost too.
I tend to think to code own timer, this ghost stuff is totally different
per platform.
Context API
This adds the context API as described here. The main practical change
now is that C is not longer directly accessible but has to be accessed
through accessor functions. This basically adds the implementation of
the API and adaption of existing code with some minor changes. The next
task of course is to actually use this design to cleanup of bad level
calls and global access, in blenkernel, blenloader.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/Context
Error, Warning and Debug Info Reporting
This adds the error reporting API as described here. It should help
clean up error() calls in non-ui code, but eventually can become used
for gathering messages for a console window, and throwing exceptions
in python scripts when an error happens executing something.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/Reports
- Made a nice generic 'OK confirm' implementation for operators.
Just use in operator type definition this line:
ot->invoke= WM_operator_confirm;
It will autmatically use operator name for asking OK. It will
also use properties (if set before).
Note for Brecht: the test okee_operator() you coded could better not
be used in operators themselves.
In future we can also add menus that get automatically generated
based on operator properties. Like 'add constraint' showing the
constraint types.
- Added this confirm call for most of the keys you'd expect it for.
(user settings, delete marker, rip area, split region, etc).
- Cleanup: moved ed_markers.c to the util/ directory, it doesnt belong
in space_time. Also made separate function for the marker keymap
definition.
- removed ancient redraw notifier from ghost event level (every key
press gave full screen draw)
Small improvements;
- switch spacedata now doesn't cause full screen refresh and draw
- cursor switching is not part of SCREEN_CHANGED notifier, this
makes area dragging ugly.
Cleanup in area/region management
- more intelligence in area management for adding handlers and setting
data correct. Space/Region type callbacks only have to do own things.
- added option for adding default handlers to areas/regions. (flag in
type definition)
- ensured that region-types store the minsizes for regions.
- added boundbox check for handlers; note that it accepts pointer to
boundbox, because handlers don't get reset on area-resizing or
view changes. Example: view2d handlers use mask rect.
- handlers get now added on correct context levels (example frame change
also worked in header)
- removed ->refresh() callback. Context refreshing is Listener.
- the ->init() is being called on all WM level actions, also after a
file read, moving areas, re-opening areas etc.
- fixed bug: crash on exit was caused by cleaning up Screen too late.
- UI_view2d_size_update() removed from draw callback, is init()
- regions now store (winx, winy) subwindow size.
Part one of wrapping up area/region management.
Read design doc here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/AreaManager
This commit:
- brings keymap storage to WM, based on names/types. This structure
allows rna-ifying it too, so you can browse keymaps etc.
- creating areas and regions works slightly different now, wich
regiontypes stored in areatype.
Todo:
- better callbacks and structure for defining which handlers need to
be added.
- using region types to validate regions
- proper implementation of local region data
- code method for customizing keymaps. Current idea is that you have
to indicate an entire keymap to be custom, to prevent too complicated
merging problems of default and custom maps (like order, multiple keys
for same operator, disabling options, etc).
- Made view2d manipulations redraw on area level
- simplified call to send Notifiers:
WM_event_add_notifier(bContext *C, int type, int value, void *data)
This brings back more control to WM, no context messing within
operators. :) Handlers that execute operators will be responsible
for delivering correct contextes.
In general: should lead to making context not exposed, but only
readable via some callbacks.
- Simplified and cleaned previous border code
It was a bit too complex, too many data manipulations
Original idea was to have WM API calls to manage border, circle, lines,
lasso, etc. This now means that WM provides callbacks for custom operators,
so it's very easy to make them. Check bottom of screen_edit.c for an
example.
Currently two borders were coded; with and without cross hair.
Press Bkey in any area-region to test it (note: time window has wrong matrix!)
Some specs to note:
- gestures are in region space, and draw 'over'. That latter still needs some
work when we do real composites.
- only the active region is redrawn.
- on todo is the generic gesture engine for 'tweak' or like how currently grab
gestures in Blender work. These will be configurable per area-region, and WM
then will send the proper "Gesture Event" with properties (N, S, E, W, etc)
to which you then can assign operators. Such events will be generated with low
priority, so other handlers who swallowed mouse events have preference.
- moved from WM to Screen code (it uses active area)
- less code :) result of cleaning some calls
- added WM_window_open() to WM API for this
- now opens new window on top of area, and leaves old screen unaffected
(simple, atomic, the 'do not think for user' convention :)
* Added functions to generate Timer events. There was some unfinished code to
create one timer per window, this replaces that with a way to let operators
or other handlers add/remove their own timers as needed. This is currently
delivered as an event with the timer handle, perhaps this should be a notifier
instead? Also includes some fixes in ghost for timer events that were not
delivered in time, due to passing negative timeout.
* Added a Message event, which is a generic event that can be added by any
operator. This is used in the UI code to communicate the results of opened
blocks. Again, this may be better as a notifier.
* These two events should not be blocked as they are intended for a specific
operator or handler, so there were exceptions added for this, which is one
of the reasons they might work better as notifiers, but currently these
things can't listen to notifier yet.
* Added an option to events to indicate if the customdata should be freed or
not.
* Added a free() callback for area regions, and added a free function for
area regions in blenkernel since it was already there for screens and areas.
* Added ED_screen/area/region_exit functions to clean up things like operators
and handlers when they are closed.
* Added screen level regions, these will draw over areas boundaries, with the
last created region on top. These are useful for tooltips, menus, etc, and
are not saved to file. It's using the same ARegion struct as areas to avoid
code duplication, but perhaps that should be renamed then. Note that redraws
currently go correct, because only full window redraws are used, for partial
redraws without any frontbuffer drawing, the window manager needs to get
support for compositing subwindows.
* Minor changes in the subwindow code to retrieve the matrix, and moved
setlinestyle to glutil.c.
* Reversed argument order in WM_event_add/remove_keymap_handler to be consistent
with modal_handler.
* Operators can now block events but not necessarily cancel/finish.
* Modal operators are now stored in a list in the window/area/region they were
created in. This means for example that when a transform operator is invoked
from a region but registers a handler at the window level (since mouse motion
across areas should work), it will still get removed when the region is closed
while the operator is running.
- operator that rips current area into new window
- implemented on the window level.
- sets C->area in current context if necessary
== fix ==
- small bugfix: missing return in WM_event_add_keymap_handler
==========
* Changed wmOperatorType, removing init/exit callbacks and adding cancel
callback, removed default storage in favor of properties. Defined return
values for exec/invoke/modal/cancel.
* Don't allocate operator on the stack, and removed operator copy for
handlers. Now it frees based on return values from callbacks, and just
keeps a wmOperator on the heap. Also it now registers after the operator
is fully finished, to get the correct final properties.
* Changed OP_get_* functions to return 1 if the property is found and 0
otherwise, gives more readable code in my opinion. Added OP_verify_*
functions to quickly check if the property is available and set if it's
not, that's common for exec/invoke.
* Removed WM_operatortypelist_append in favor of WM_operatortype_append
which takes a function pointer instead of a list, avoids macro's and
duplicating code.
* Fix a crash where the handler would still be used while it was freed by
the operator.
* Spacetypes now have operatortypes() and keymap() callbacks to abstract
them a bit more.
* Renamed C->curarea to C->area for consistency. Removed View3D/View2D/
SpaceIpo from bContext, seems bad to keep these.
* Set context variables like window/screen/area/region to NULL again when
leaving that context, instead of leaving the pointers there.
* Added if(G.f & G_DEBUG) for many of the prints, makes output a bit
cleaner and easier to debug.
* Fixed priority of the editors/interface module in scons, would otherwise
give link errors.
* Added start of generic view2d api.
* Added space_time with some basic drawing and a single operator to change
the frame.
After check this a little more I make some changes to the
API and now work on the following form:
WM_gesture_init(C, type);
while() {
/* handler event, etc */
/* if something change. */
if(need_update) {
/* update the gesture data and notify about it. */
WM_gesture_update(C, data);
WM_event_add_notifier (.. WM_NOTE_GESTURE_CHANGE ..);
}
}
WM_gesture_end(C, type);
Another of the change is that now the gesture data is a link list
in the window struct, so we can have multiples "gestures" (but
of different type) at the same time.
Also take care that the "gesture data" is reusable, that mean that
only alloc it 1 time and use in all the place, that is
why don't support multiple gesture of the same type, but of course
that can be change.
This is a first implementation of the "gesture manager" system,
the idea is put the WM in a automatic draw mode so we can
implement different "Gesture types" to draw different class
of data (lasso, bound box, etc).
The gesture data is passed through the data field of the notifiers,
i think that we can change this to something like:
WM_gesture_init(C, data); /* put the data in the context. */
while() {
/* send WM_NOTE_GESTURE_CHANGED to update screen */
}
/* send event and free the data in the context. */
WM_gesture_end(C);
Also i add a new operator and event to test the gesture manager.
The new operator is the "border select" function, just press BKEY
in the window and LMB or ESCKEY to exit.
In the case of LMB you can see a print in the console about the
BORDERSELECT event.
All this still need a lot of work, comment are welcome.
- on mouse-over edge, you can drag area borders around.
- note it's a handerized system now, so it updates UI while you
move mouse.
Feedback needed:
- read bottom part of the screen_edit.c file. It's the proposed
method for adding tools and handlers. I think it's close, but
might need some tweaks.
- removed editors/area and put this all in screen
- added first python calls (note, a new c file for scriptlinks)
- added view3d editor callbacks (no drawing yet)
- added files in editors/interface
(Cmake and Scons has to be fixed, help welcome!)
- now areas/headers are being converted on file read
- note: previously saved 2.50 files will crash!!! (.B.blend)
- area regions are being drawn, first handler for cursor added (on edge)
- window duplicate and scale works correct for screen subdiv
Todos for me:
- need to fix things in syntax (function names) a bit still
- more operators for screen
- define how Context will work... still unresolved when it gets set
- docs!
Reviews of code structure is welcome!
There are also more todos now for others, but it can wait a couple of days
* made win32 ghost getClientBounds so that it returns area compatible with osx getClientBounds
- if a window is non-fullscreen, substract decoration, since that'll be added by GHOST_WindowWin32()
* use SetWindowLongPtr/GetWindowLongPtr (instead of SetWindowLong) as it is compatible with 64bit windows.
Result: windows open default with decoration (or as your default WM
defines).
Todo: platform maintainers re-implement a cogent way for giving
commandline options for defaults, and test how this can be stored even
- Added GHOST_kEventWindowMove event, for sending event that the
window has moved
- Fixed GHOST_GetClientBounds() for OSX (get window rect)
Todos:
- add same event for X11 and Windows
- solve why ghost doesn't call client event-proc while scaling window
(at least, not in osx)
