This commit introduces operators to customise the grouping of F-Curves. As
groups are only available in Actions, these grouping operators only work in the
Dopesheet, Action Editor, and Graph Editor (Animation) modes.
To Use:
* Ctrl-G = Group selected F-Curves
* Alt-G = Ungroup selected F-Curves
* or find these tools from the Channels menu
Notes:
* When invoking the grouping operator from the Channels menu, the name popup
won't show up. Instead, the group(s) created will be created with the default
name. To fix, you can either use the F6 operator properties edit OR manually
edit the names (Ctrl-LMB on the relevant channel)
Rename it to "Dynamic" to make it more obvious that it switches between
static and dynamic state.
Also don't show it for passive rigid bodies since it's redundant in that
case.
Now modifier takes a segments parameter.
Bevel edge weights will multiply the overall amount.
For vertex-only, you can give a vertex group name,
and the weights in that will multiply the overall amount.
Handling of keyword arguments in Python wrapper class constructors was revised.
This revision is mainly focused on Interface0D, Interface1D, Iterator, and
their subclasses, as well as a few additional view map component classes.
Implementation notes: Because of the extensive use of constructor overloading
in the underlying C++ classes, the corresponding Python wrappers try to parse
arguments through multiple calls of PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords() if needed.
The downside of this implementation is that most argument errors result in the
same error message ("invalid argument(s)") without indicating what is wrong.
For now this issue is left for future work.
* Now the instantiation of ViewVertex is prohibited since the underlying
C++ class is an abstract class.
* Removed the .cast_to_interface0diterator() method from CurvePointIterator
and StrokeVertexIterator. Instead the constructor of Interface0DIterator now
accepts the instances of these two iterator classes to construct a nested
Interface0DIterator instance that can be passed to Function0D functor objects.
Specifically, an iterator 'it' is passed to a functor 'func' as follows:
func(Interface0DIterator(it))
instead of:
func(it.cast_to_interface0diterator())
* Boolean arguments of class constructors only accept values of boolean type.
Input values of other types are considered as error.
* Additional code clean-up was made.
Systematically adding some custom id to template_list using default UI_UL_list class, this one is commoly used more than once in an area, yielding collision issues if they do not have a custom id...
Also enhanced the ugly py ast parsing code, so that it now can handle (up to some extent) "name" function nodes, and add bpy.app.translations.pgettext func familly to extracted ones...
This ast py parsing becomes more and more ugly, should probably try to refactor it a bit. :/
Justa cluster did not have enough memory to handle all Mango 4k scenes.
Option is default disabled and can be enabled in the performance panel.

Major API updates were made as in part 3 to address code review comments.
This revision focuses on Python wrappers of C++ iterators.
* Most getter/setter methods were reimplemented as attributes using PyGetSetDef.
* The naming of methods and attributes was fixed to follow the naming conventions
of the Blender Python API (i.e., lower case + underscores for methods and attributes,
and CamelCase for classes). The only irregular naming change is the following, to
better indicate the functionality:
- ChainingIterator: getVertex --> next_vertex
* In addition, some code clean-up was done in both C++ and Python. Also duplicated
definitions of predicate classes were removed.
Major API updates were made to address code review comments.
This revision mostly focuses on Python wrappers of C++ 0D and 1D elements (i.e.,
Interface0D and Interface1D, as well as their subclasses).
* Most getter/setter methods were reimplemented as attributes using PyGetSetDef.
Vector attributes are now implemented based on mathutils callbacks. Boolean
attributes now only accept boolean values.
* The __getitem__ method was removed and the Sequence protocol was used instead.
* The naming of methods and attributes was fixed to follow the naming conventions
of the Blender Python API (i.e., lower case + underscores for methods and attributes,
and CamelCase for classes). Some naming inconsistency within the Freestyle Python
API was also addressed.
* The Freestyle API had a number of method names including prefix/suffix "A" and
"B", and their meanings were inconsistent (i.e., referring to different things
depending on the classes). The names with these two letters were replaced with
more straightforward names. Also some attribute names were changed so as to indicate
the type of the value (e.g., FEdge.next_fedge instead of FEdge.next_edge) in line
with other names explicitly indicating what the value is (e.g., SVertex.viewvertex).
* In addition, some code clean-up was done in both C++ and Python.
Notes:
In summary, the following irregular naming changes were made through this revision
(those resulting from regular changes of naming conventions are not listed):
- CurvePoint: {A,B} --> {first,second}_svertex
- FEdge: vertex{A,B} --> {first,second}_svertex
- FEdge: {next,previous}Edge --> {next,previous}_fedge
- FEdgeSharp: normal{A,B} --> normal_{right,left}
- FEdgeSharp: {a,b}FaceMark --> face_mark_{right,left}
- FEdgeSharp: {a,b}Material --> material_{right,left}
- FEdgeSharp: {a,b}MaterialIndex --> material_index_{right,left}
- FrsCurve: empty --> is_empty
- FrsCurve: nSegments --> segments_size
- TVertex: mate() --> get_mate()
- ViewEdge: fedge{A,B} --> {first,last}_fedge
- ViewEdge: setaShape, aShape --> occlude
- ViewEdge: {A,B} --> {first,last}_viewvertex
- ViewMap: getScene3dBBox --> scene_bbox
The way it works now is:
- Border select is using TWEAK, for which you need to hold LMB down
and move mouse. This prevents operators using RELEASE/CLICK events
from being fired.
- LMB select is using RELEASE event, this is no selection happens
before border if you do border select. And this prevents any
operator uses CLICK event from being fired.
- Delect all happens by CLICK, which would be fired only in case no
operators were handled with PRESS/RELEASE.
This is a bit cards-house, but this is how events currently works and
wouldn't want inventing something bigger now.
This also revealed another bug, as you could not explicitely set default context to text_ctxt UI func parameter (None is not accpeted by RNA string props), so I had to change default context from py POV to "*" instead of None.
Anyway, that physics UI translation remains weak, as the trick used here (helper func) prevents message extractor script to directly find them. Currently it works because specified labels are also defined elsewhere, but it would be nice to have some kind of "translation markers" in py code too (similar to our N_/CTX_N_ C macros, unfortunately python does not have preprocessing ;) )...
(Did not add those when I created that module, because I did not thought we would actually need them in usual UI code, but turned out I was wrong).
Also made some optimizations in those py gettext funcs, when i18n is disabled at build time, no need to do pyobject -> cstring -> pyobject conversions!.
As per discussion and analysis of all trackpad usage, we now
follow this convention:
- Blender follows system setting for trackpad direction preference.
- If you set your system to "natural" scroll, we need to invert a couple
of cases in Blender we do "natural" already. Like:
- view rotate (the inversed option just never feels ok)
- scroll active items in list or pulldown menu (up/down is absolute)
- ALT+scroll values in buttons (up/down is absolute)
The new User Preference setting "Trackpad Natural" handles this.
For 2.66 we only have trackpad handling for OS X... so this isn't
affecting trackpad usage in Windows and Linux, which stick to be mapped
to Scroll Wheel still.
(Note: viewrotate now is "natural" always, changing how it worked in the
past weeks).
