Refactored Auto-Keyframing to make it easier to add more options. There are now three "states" for auto-keying: off, add/replace keys, replace keys.
Description of modes:
1) No auto-keying is done
2) Add new keyframes or replace existing ones if possible (old behaviour)
3) Only modify existing keys, but not insert new ones.
Internally, I've moved the auto-keying settings out of G.flag and U.uiflag and moved them into their own variables in Userdef, and provided some macros to access those easily. As a result, old auto-keying settings are currently lost.
Also, removed the manual calls to insertkey done in pose-relax. The reason auto-keying didn't work before was because the bones didn't have the BONE_TRANSFORM flag applied. Now, these are set temporarily.
Todo(s):
* Make icons for the TimeLine header menu (currently just a text menu)
* Add version-patches for old files
* Double-check code for all places that use auto-keying (i.e. PoseLib)
====================
- "From Dupli" option for orco and uv texture coordinates. For dupliverts,
duplifaces and dupli particles, this uses the orco and uv at the point
on the parent surface. Can for example be used for texturing feathers
and leafs. Note that uv only works for duplifaces and particles emitted
from faces, these are not defined at vertices.
- "Width Fade" option for strand render, to fade out along the width of the
strand. Committing this so it can be tested, might be changed or removed
even, if it doesn't give nice results.
a glance to view is the "STU PID semi implicit euler"
most of the work to implement a semi implicit euler was done ..
now i am dealing with the tradeoffs between 'calculation time' which is quite expensive .. inverting a 0(n*n) sparse matrix /* once agian thanks to brecht for his work on making sparse matrices LU decomposition and evaluating inverses that easy*/ putting it into and cropping works pretty nice .. argh off topic again
...
while i spent a little time on reading recent papers i found :
1. control on springs needs to be split in pushing and pulling /* fabric pushes easy but pulls hard */
2. diagonals on 4-gons (in the current SB model) can be seen as shear .. thus need a contol to modify .. this commit wil add it
3. 2 nd order springs /*aka rigidity */ can focus on bending .. thus renaming 'em
i have no idea how i would provide backward compatiblity, but the spots i marked in code :)
- 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
make for example feathers. Also made dupliparts work within groups.
One issue still is that in particle editmode, the duplis can interfere
with brushes and selection, though tweaking the dupli object position
can alleviate the problem.
Proxy protected bones can now get local (per-file) constraints added to them, which will be preserved after a file load. This is necessary for adding constraints to proxy-protected bones for special purposes while animating (i.e. adding CopyLocs to IK-hand controls to pick up an object).
These must be added after any constraints from the proxy, as proxy constraints may come and go without warning. As such, the UI forbids this from happening by removing the relevant button.
I've also made UI-changes to show which constraints come from the proxy (the buttons to move the constraint up/down and delete it, are replace with two icons - a the proxy 'ghost' icon and a lock). Also, trying to change any settings of proxy-protected constraint will show an error.
Notes:
* Object constraints are still not playing nice with proxies yet. They didn't before this commit either...
- first work on getting area/screen handling back
- added structure for where to put stuff, is still under
review, wait a bit for docs?
Campbell is working on removing every bad level include from
sources, so we can safely rebuild the src/ directory.
Attention! Rather large sequencer rewrite:
* Implemented layer blending using implicit effects. (works like layers
in "The Gimp" or Photoshop.)
* Fixed Space-Bar start-stop in preview windows.
You can start playback using spacebar within a preview-window and it _works_!
* Fixed Flip Y (didn't work for float)
* Fixed premul (didn't work for float)
* Added IPOs to _all_ tracks. In blend-mode REPLACE it drives the
"mul"-parameter in all other blend modes it drives the effect.
* you can meta single tracks.
* moved "mute track" from "M" to "Shift-M"
* added "Shift-L" for "lock track"
* changed inner workings for Metas. Now all ImBufs have to use the
reference counting mechanism. (Only interesting for coders :)
!!! Really important change, that affects current files!
Since you can mute tracks and now there is real layer blending capabilities
in place, I changed the silly behaviour that chose the output track.
Old behaviour: if we have an effect track visible, use the uppermost effect
track. If there is _no_ effect track visible, use the lowest input track.
New behaviour: always use the uppermost track. With blend modes active:
work our way down starting from the uppermost track to the first
"replace"-mode track. This is the way the gimp, photoshop, basically _all_
other applications work...
So if this change ruins your day: please try to fix your files using
"mute". If this doesn't work out, I can still restore the old behaviour,
but I really hope, that this is _not_ necessary!
Rational: most people won't get affected by this change, since you can't
really do anything usefull with the (old) sequencer without at least one
effect track and then you are on the safe side...
This means one group can contain proxy objects to display in the 3d view as well as hi quality models that are only rendered. - again for peach tree's.
* Most were uninitialised vars
* Fixed whitespace in a few places
* The change I made in rendercore.c -> do_bake_shade() was for an uninitialised var, but I hope it does't cause any rendering errors...
Based on feedback from Ton, I've recoded the way "PoseLibs" are implemented/exposed. Therefore, quite a bit of code has been changed to fit this in better.
Now, ANY ACTION can be a "PoseLib". A set of Markers which belong to the Action (it's taken a year, but they're finally back), are used to tag "poses" in the Action. These markers are shown using diamond-shaped blue icons (designed by Matt Ebb) in three shades - unselected/normal, selected, active.
Notes:
* Each Armature Object has an Action which acts as a PoseLib.
* Improved UI presented in buttons panel for this
-- added proper buttons for action assigning
-- renamed "Validate PoseLib" to "Auto-Sync PoseLib" (this option auto-tags poses based on keyframes found)
Like in the 3d-view, use the hotkeys:
* Shift-L to add a local marker
* Ctrl-Shift-L to rename a local marker
* Alt-L to delete selected local markers
Note: transforms, etc. are not currently available with these markers
== PoseLib Preview ==
Added a few features here:
* Left/Right-Arrow keys now change the poses too (previous and next respectively)
* Up/Down-Arrow keys also change the poses, but "jump" to a pose 5 steps away in their respective directions
