This means that you don't need to have the view panel open all the
time, reducing the amount of scrolling required just to be able to
precisely position the 3D cursor at specific coordinates while
changing some other settings. While most of the settings in the View
panel are less likely to be frequently changed, the 3D cursor can in
some workflows end up needing to be accessed quite frequently.
incompatible, and unmaintainable Time Offset cruft.
- Slow Parenting lives another day (just), although it now carries
appropriate cautionary disclaimers. It's only really for the Game
Engine nowadays, as that's the only place where it can possibly work
with any reliability.
- "Animation Hacks" panel is now "Relations Extras". I could've merged
the two panels, though I figured these options weren't that frequently
used to justify taking up screen-space by default along with the panel
- Added support of variable size sensor width and height.
- Added presets for most common cameras, also new presets can be defined by user.
- Added option to control which dimension (vertical or horizontal) of sensor
size defines FOV. Old behavior of automatic FOV calculation is also kept.
- Renderer, viewport, game engine and collada importer/exporter should
deal fine with this changes. Other exporters would be updated soon.

- remove Markers from Ctrl+L menu (was out of place here and was broken from recent changes to marker operators)
- further de-duplicte scripts by having all menus call the same function: marker_menu_generic().
this fixes bug [#29083] too.
* Scene.use_shading_nodes property to check if RenderEngine is using new shading
nodes system, and RenderEngine.bl_use_shading_nodes to set this.
* Add mechanism for tagging nodes as being compatible with the old/new system.
Changing tilt for 2D curves doesn't really hurt, just makes things not so
clear tosee what's going on because you're changing value which isn't used
at all for 2D curves. Disallwo to run TRANSFORM_OT_tilt operator for 2D curves.
Also made a correct fix for incorrect shortcut for tilt in 3D viewport toolbar,
it was really confusing to have almost the same operators (TRANSFORM_OT_tilt and
TRANSFORM_OT_transform with mode=tilt) in keymap. Better to use tilt operator
in toolbar.
* Redesigned alpha blending and paint drying algorithms. Now it gives much better results when using low brush alpha or when surface has initial color set.
* Fix: "Slow" dissolve/dry was scaled incorrect when using substeps. Also adjusted time to better match non-"slow" setting.
* Fixed possible issues when using image textured brush.
* Fix: particle brush panel was no longer visible since last commit.
* Adjusted default surface values.
* Some more code cleanup.
Some UI and code cleanup for the "Symmetry" panel in sculpt mode.
* Made X, Y, Z Buttons toggle buttons, as the other X,Y,Z in the "Options" panel above in sculpt mode, for consistency.
In the Parameter Editor mode, each edge type check button in the Selection
by Edge Types has now an associated toggle button to exclude the edge type
from the feature edge selection. This allows you to select, for instance,
those edges that are silhouette lines but not external contours.
It now had issues when hiding menus with the - icon, space selector disappeared.
I am sorry for that, but I consider this a show stopper eventually. :(
This commit introduces the issue with narrowed verts/edge/face select in solid/edit mode again.
- added API examples for mathutils.Color/Euler/Quaternion/Matrix.
- corrected own bad spelling matricies --> matrices.
- minor pep8 edits.
- update CMake ignore file list.
There has been quite a bit of fuss about particle dupliobject rotation in 2.59, so here are some changes to make things work a bit more consistently and predictably in 2.60.
Much of the confusion has been about what the "Initial rotation" for particles actually means. Simply put it's just a vector that that the particles (and the dupliobjects) are aligned to and around which they can be rotated with the phase controls. I've now renamed these controls under a label "Rotation axis".
In 2.59 and previous versions the dupliobject's global x-axis was aligned to the particle rotation axis for non-hair particles. This meant that the object's own rotation (in addition to the particle rotation) could effect the dupliobjects' rotations. This old behavior can still be used with the "Rotation" option in the particle render panel when object/group is set as the visualization. This option is also activated automatically for old files to maintain backwards compatibility.
Now the default dupliobject rotations ignore the object's own rotation completely and align the object's tracking axis to the particle rotation axis. The tracking axis can be found under the Object tab -> Animation Hacks panel.
In 2.58 the way of calculating the rotation for hair didn't work as intended and enabled many non-functional combinations of options. For this reason I removed most of the rotation options for hair in 2.59. Now the options have been reimplemented better and the dupliobject's tracking axis is aligned to the hair direction by default (Rotation axis = Velocity / Hair). All the other axis options work too along with the phase controls.
* Vert/Edge/Face select buttons looked crappy when in EditMode and Wireframe shading. Fixed it.
This commit makes the View3D Template a bit narrower in general, but it's very minor, should be no problem.
This also fixes some weird increase/decrease of the 3D Mode selector menu when toggling between Textured/Solid and Wireframe/Boundbox shading.
