- currently only distances work.
- user preferences, edit section to set the units and scale.
- option to display pairs (nicer for imperial display?)
- support for evaluating multiple comma separated values eg: 2',11" ..or.. 5ft, 4mil
- comma separated expressions/values accumulate 1+1,2**3,4cm/3
- attempted fast conversion from a value to a string so button drawing isn't too slow.
* imperial long/short *
- mile, mi
- yard, yd
- foot, '
- inch, "
- thou, mil
* metric long/short *
kilometer, km
meter, m
centimeter, cm
millimeter, mm
micrometer, um
nanometer, nm
picometer, pm
* Reviewed subtypes, making them more specific and adding new ones.
* Subtypes now have an associated type of units (length, area, volume,
mass, rotation, time, velocity, acceleration). These are not used
yet anywhere.
* Centralized code that decides the name of array items based on
subtype (XYZ, RGB), was copied in 3 places.
* RNA_def_float etc functions still need to be update, will do this
later together with another change.
* Disable shaded mode for now, it cause too many crashes combined
with preview render, will be fixed properly later.
* Make 3d view toolbar region a bit wider. Ideally this would not
be needed, but the sculpt/paint buttons just don't fit otherwise.
* Revert change to icon/text spacing in buttons, it breaks text
editing and clipping. Will properly fix this later so changing
the spacing can be done centrally.
* Fix for grease pencil simplify stroke python error. Now button
is hidden (as in 2.4), but still available through outliner.
* Fix for memory leak in UI code, when using ctrl+Q menu.
* Fix submenu > icon being drawn on some buttons where it was not
needed.
Note...
- Python3.1 you don't need to add the .0 for divisions anymore (was esp annoying for button eval)
- Simple dimension input, imperial mi/yd/ft/in, metric km/m/cm/mm, Later could display these values and have a pref for scene scale, atm it assumes 1BU == 1m.
As Joe point on a previous mail, glBitmap don't work nice
on all cards and also some of the things that we can do
with texture are hard (or need that blender check the font mode)
to implement.
-Deleted old Buttons C code for RIGIDBODYJOINT constraint.
-"Realtime" Icon for Modifer was different in Template and RNA, i changed the Icon in RNA to match the template version, which is an eye instead of a cube.
-Removed shadows from most UI items. The shadow settings are unfortunately not really useful, because you can't set them for individual items. There was a lot of black text with black shadows, which really only makes the text look fuzzy. For shadows to improve clarity, they should be the opposite color of the text label, not the same color.
-Tweaked material layout, with clearer grouping in Ray Mirror and Ray Transparency panels.
-Added icons in the texture type menu to signify which textures are procedural and which ones are images, and plugins.
* When doing realtime recording of animation (i.e. transforming objects + bones while animation playback is running, and auto-keying is enabled), animation will be added to a new NLA Track+Strip combo everytime a single 'loop' of the frame range has finished. This will allow 'passes' over the animation to be less destructive.
* Made the evaluation of the active action (when NLA data is present), be handled as part of the normal NLA system evaluation code (as if it were just another strip in a track at the end). The immediate benefit is that there are now some settings (available in the "Animation Data" panel in the NLA Editor with a strip selected) which allow for the way the active action is combined with the NLA stack results. For instance, the way that the action extrapolates is used in the recording tweaks above.
The second tweak made (for the case without an icon) was causing superfluous spacing all over the UI for things like checkboxes + combo-boxes + text widgets. This was quite ugly and gave readability issues with the checkboxes in particular.
you can copy operator strings from buttons or the reporting interface and run them in the console.
- Ctrl+C over an operator button copies its python string to the clipboard.
- Paste in the console (1 line only for now).
- operators run from python no longer require all arguments.
* When resizing the window, the top position is now preserved,
instead of the center position.
* Fix zoom level not being preserved in various cases, when
changing both with and height. This replaces some earlier code
which did this at screen level but wasn't very reliable.
* Different tabs now each preserve their own scroll.
* When switching between tabs, it now scrolls to show as many
buttons as possible, instead of possibly showing empty space.
There is a trade-off here between doing that keeping the
buttons in the same place, no ideal solution exists I think.
* Change zooming in/out to be symmetric, for example doing
numpad + then - did not give the original zoom level back.
* Added some calls to avoid hanging tooltips when manipulating
the view.
Internals:
* Added V2D_KEEPOFS_X and V2D_KEEPOFS_Y to keep the top/bottom
rather than the center.
* Renamed V2D_KEEPZOOM to V2D_LIMITZOOM (seems more appropriate),
and make V2D_KEEPZOOM preserve the zoom level.
Two bugfixes, reported by Sebastian Skejo in IRC:
- File operator poll wasn't secure, search for it crashed
- Knife tool depends on having view3d context, fixed poll for it
Operator goodies!
--- Macro operators
Operators now can consist of multiple operators. Such a macro operator
is identical and behaves identical to other opererators. Macros can
also be constructed of macros even! Currently only hardcoded macros are
implemented, this to solve combined operators such as 'add duplicate' or
'extrude' (both want a transform appended).
Usage is simple:
- WM_operatortype_append_macro() : add new operatortype, name, flags
- WM_operatortype_macro_define() : add existing operator to macro
(Note: macro_define will also allow properties to be set, doesnt work
right now)
On converting the macro wmOperatorType to a real operator, it makes a
list of all operators, and the standard macro callbacks (exec, invoke,
modal, poll) just will use all.
Important note; switching to a modal operator only works as last in the
chain now!
Macros implemented for duplicate, extrude and rip. Tool menu works fine
for it, also the redo hotkey F4 works properly.
--- Operator redo fix
The operators use the undo system to switch back, but this could give
errors if other actions added undo pushes (buttons, outliner). Now the
redo for operator searches back for the correct undo level.
This fixes issues with many redos.
Note for brecht: removed the ED_undo_push for buttons... it was called
on *every* button now, which is probably too much? For example, using
the 'toolbar' redo also caused this...
* small tweak for tab completion of directory: make TEX button interactive again
Note1: only TAB key triggers update (see ui_do_but_textedit, line 1599)
The option of Texture or Bitmap font is working again, yes it's really
uuuuugly right now, but it work.
On the next commit I go to put this at the same level that texture font.
Change this from User Preferences -> Language -> Textued Fonts, save
the preferences and run blender again.
* Image window only show game properties in game mode.
* Fix image window render info drawing wrong with alpha enabled.
* Win32 editmode cursor now uses a different one than the system
cursor, that one is barely visible, especially in the new theme
colors.
* Center text in operator header print.
* Fix sequencer unlock shortcut key.
* Fix uv layer / vertex color active render button now graying out.
* Workaround to get default zoom level 1:1 again for new buttons
(will try to fix properly later, is due to scrollbars).
* Bugfix: keep the filename when changing directory, either by clicking on it or by selecting a bookmark
* MSVC uninitialized variable runtime check fix in widget_draw_text
* Text editing in buttons now hides the label, to give more space.
* Tweak slider buttons text clipping, happened a bit too early.
* Move editing text closer to the left, because the < > buttons
are not visible then anyway.
First step towards keymap editor!
Before getting too excited:
- doesn't save yet
- no rna properties can be defined
- no insert/remove keymap options yet
- no option yet to set 'key press/release'
But what does work;
- Keymap list is in outliner, new category
(Keymaps are listed in order as being created now)
- enable/disable a keymap entry: click on dot icon
- it displays python api names for ops
- browse new operator for keymap (menu button)
- set keymap to use other keys, mouse or tweak events
- four modifier key options
I first intent to test it all well, there are still
quite some modal map conflicts (like border select) and
there's problems assigning items to tweaks
Another issue is that a visual editor for keymaps might be
quite hard to use... the amount of data and options is just not
so fun for a buttons menu. There are ways to improve this though.
Maybe do this via a script?
Outliner: brought back to near full functioning:
- proper operators, like for open/close items, exec operations
(note: select is still same operator as activate, should
become modal ops later)
- rename works again (ctrl+click)
- proper notifiers for redraws
- select / extend select works again
- editmode in/out works again
- enter key opens/closes again
- right mouse operations work again
Didn't do:
- options for Sequence strips
- signals to change button views on clicks
- error/warning messages
UI:
- added new uiButSetRenameFunc(), which passes on the old name
- added uiButActiveOnly(), which ensures a button gets created in
active state, and gets removed when used. Needed for editing
names in outliner.
Andrea: check outliner.c for uiButActiveOnly(), very easy to use!
Also:
- Added posemode operator, CTRL+TAB tied to it.
- shift+b in the console would do border zoom (rather then upper case B), fixed by making v2d's border zoom check if the v2d's zoom is locked.
- blender in debug mode registers all operators, useful for testing.
* Fix issue where it would automatically scroll when collapsing panels.
* Fix panel dragging not taking zoom level into account.
* Fix enum menu having too small default width in headers.
* Fix tooltips not showing shortcuts etc. if there was not tooltip
defined for the button.
* Fix some refresh issues with color ramps.
* Add a bit more space between columns in the layout engine.
* Make scrollers darker so they are less distracting, and highlight
instead of reverse shading when dragging.
Patch by Alfredo de Greef with high quality image texture filters.
This adds 3 new filters:
* SAT: Summed Area Tables. This is like mipmaps, but using somewhat
more memory avoids some artifacts.
* EWA: Ellipitical Weighted Average, anisotropic filter.
* FELINE: Fast elliptical lines for anisotropic texture mapping.
The one change I made to this was to try to fix an alpha/premul
problem, hopefully I didn't break anything, it looks compatible
with the existing filter now for me.
* World and Lamp previews now working here too.
* Experiment with list template, showing only icons. Unfortunately
texture icon render crashes combined with preview render so it
shows all icons the same.
* Influence panels updated, with slider for each option. The values
are still linked though, will fix that later.
* Image texture controls a bit more complete, still WIP.
* Color ramp back.
* Added a new UI Template for the 3-colour picker used to visualise + select the custom colours for a bone group.
* Finished wrapping the colour properties for Bone Groups in RNA. Although changing the colour-set used will change the displayed/cached colours, changing the colours via the colour wells will not change the colour set to 'custom' (as per 2.4x) yet. This needs a nice solution...
* Fixed context-related bugs with the Assign/Remove operators for bone groups. These were using context-iterators for selected posechannels, but that was only defined/valid for the 3d view (but not for the buttons window), hence a failure in that case.
* Names for newly added constraints are now derived from the type of constraint, making it easier to identify the type of constraint
* Fixed crash when renaming constraints (due to invalid pointer being passed for the 'old' string name)
* List template visual changes. Items now look different,
and it expands to size 5 as more items are added.
* Added LISTROW and LISTBOX elements. The former is like
a typical ROW button, but looks diffrent. The latter
looks like a BOUNDBOX, and has no extra features yet.
* Fix some glColor3ubv warnings with casting, did not find
a nicer way.
- Set View2D operators not to register, got in the way a lot with the console.
- Made autocomplete Ctrl+Enter so Tab can be used.
- Should work with python 2.5 now. (patch from Vilda)
- Moved report struct definitions into DNA_windowmanager_types.h, could also have DNA_report_types.h however the reports are not saved, its just needed so the report list can be used in the wmWindowManager struct. Fixes a crash reported by ZanQdo.
- Store the report message length in the report so calculating the total height including word wrap is not so slow.
Added NULL check for View2D code for invalid style pointer (this underlying problem should get addressed at some point), and reinstated the reinitialisation hack for panel regions.
* Wave modifier speed 0.5 -> 0.25.
* Particles even and random distribution on.
* Particles normal velocity 0.0 -> 1.0.
* Particles size 1.0 -> 0.05.
* Particles draw emitter and material color on.
* Field strength 0.0 -> 1.0
* Object drawing without material was not consistent
with default material.
* Panel title 13 -> 12 points.
* Some changes to make lamp and world textures editing work.
You may have to click on another texture slot once before
being able to add a texture, and the layout is messy. Added
this so lightenv project isn't blocked by this being missing.
* Adding a new material slot now doesn't create a new material
anymore, to avoid creating unused materials.
* Tiny changes to scene/object buttons.
* Added basic infrastructure to layout user preferences. The
intention is that you open a user preferences space in place
of the buttons space, and have panels there.
* The existing sections don't have to be followed, it's easy
to create different ones, just change the user_pref_sections
enum in RNA.
* This will get separated from the info header later.
Notes:
- These may be taking up a bit too much room in some situations. Perhaps an option to turn these on/off is needed?
- I've added a quick hack in area.c -> ED_region_panels_init() to set the flags to make scrollbars show up in regions whose View2D data has already been initialised. This is primarily aimed at the Buttons Window in the 2.5 defaults file, which seems to have been saved in 2.5 or so
- The expand icons on either end of the scrollers don't really seem to be necessary? (or not working yet)
