Addons are checked for their timestamps and reloaded when it changes but this failed when, 2 addons had the same name since different times caused 2 reloads on every redraw.
Now when duplicate addons are in the path now give a error message in the UI and print path conflict in the console and don't thrash reloading.
Weight Paint Vertex Select tweaked to act like edit mode's select and Circle select was added, but clipping is not working properly for either.
Select all was added too, but to the Q key until I look into overriding A's select all bones.
The select vertices checkbox was moved to the header, but it does not force face select mask to turn off yet--and it doesn't have the correct icon.
There will definitely be an update tomorrow to fix the problems with all or most of the issues.
this will reconnect nodes as if the deleted node is muted.
Operation is added to the space_node node menu and to the keymap as CTRL-X
to test this just add some nodes to the space_node
select one or multiple nodes and press CTRL-X
It should reconnect the nodes as they were muted
limitations:
1. it performs a delete and reconnect per node. It does not evaluate all selected nodes as one whole
2. mute only supports Value, Vector and Color data types, so does this feature
3. not usable for nodes where input and output does not match (like colorToBW)
Where reconnect could not be preformed the links will be removed from the model.
Undo works with this delete with reconnect.
* Canvas and brush can be now enabled simultaneously. This way it's possible for two canvases to interact.
* Added basic anti-aliasing support for vertex surfaces.
* 3D-view color preview now works even when there's subsurf modifier after Dynamic Paint in modifier stack.
* Added a new brush option to use proximity from object center.
* Default surface frame range now use scene's start and end values.
* Improved ray checks for volume brushes.
* Added new "non-closed" option for volume brushes. This way it's possible to use planar meshes as "volume" brushes with predefined ray direction.
* New carrot branch splash image by CGEffex.
* Improved brush affection code.
* Lots of smaller improvements.
* Fixed: Weight paint didn't work with particles.
* Fixed: Point cache didn't work for non-wave surfaces anymore since last commit.
Thanks Torsten Rupp (rupp) for the patch!
This patch adds the abilities to sort the bone group list in the
properties panel and to move bone groups up/down in the list (similar
like for vertex groups)
A mesh can consist out of multiple material. Take a character with clothing's. the skin can be a different material as the different clothing's. During compositing it is a common use-case to only do a part of the composit on only a specific material. Currently this can not be done.
In blender movies this feature is known to be implemented, but until now it never got integrated into trunk.
Proposal
With material index the Blender internal renderer will be capable of creating a buffer containing the material indexes of the first pixel-hit. This will be implemented in the same manner as the object index.
In the compositor the ID Mask node can be used to extract the information out of the Render pass.
Impact
User interface
On the properties-space the next changes will be done
Scene⇒Render layer⇒Passes⇒Material index will be added
Material⇒Options⇒Pass index will be added
DNA
Material struct will get an new field called “index”. this will be a short-type.
Material struct the field pad will be removed.
A new Render-layer pass will be added (bit 1«18)
RNA
Material RNA is updated (based on “pass index” from object)
Render layer RNA is updated (based on IndexOB)
Blender internal renderer
The Blender internal renderer will process the render pass as a copy of the Object index.
Blender compositor
The render layer input will get a new output socket called “IndexMA”
Usage
An example on how to use material index can be found at:
https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/lib/tests/compositing/composite_materialindex.blend
This is also example of a commit message longer than the commit itself :)
