is straight or not (premultiplied is default).
This is useful in cases when you want to check on output of such nodes
as keying which does have straight alpha output.
Also added missing do_version code to previous compo do_versions.
The group node operators offset nodes when moving them between node trees, but this should only be done for "free", un-parented nodes not attached to a frame, otherwise the node loc is relative to the parent node.
Issue was caused by couple of circumstances:
- Normal Map node requires tesselated faces to compute tangent space
- All temporary meshes needed for Cycles export were adding to G.main
- Undo pushes would temporary set meshes tessfaces to NULL
- Moving node will cause undo push and tree re-evaluate fr preview
All this leads to threading conflict between preview render and undo
system.
Solved it in way that all temporary meshes are adding to that exact
Main which was passed to Cycles via BlendData. This required couple
of mechanic changes like adding extra parameter to *_add() functions
and adding some *_ex() functions to make it possible RNA adds objects
to Main passed to new() RNA function.
This was tricky to pass Main to RNA function and IMO that's not so
nice to pass main to function, so ended up with such decision:
- Object.to_mesh() will add temp mesh to G.main
- Added Main.meshes.new_from_object() which does the same as to_mesh,
but adds temporary mesh to specified Main.
So now all temporary meshes needed for preview render would be added
to preview_main which does not conflict with undo pushes.
Viewport render shall not be an issue because object sync happens from
main thread in this case.
It could be some issues with final render, but that's not so much
likely to happen, so shall be fine.
Thanks to Brecht for review!
makes it possible to specify an offset relative to the render resolution (so 0.5
is half the image rather than giving the number of pixels). It's a bit late but
it's a trivial change and needed for 4k mango render.
this patch enables the translate node to wrap around the image borders. This is especially needed if the translate node is not used to position elements on a layer but when it is used instead for seamless backgrounds like mountains or clouds that should be repeated over time (by animating the x/y values).
No trunk without docs! So here is my documentation: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Plasmasolutions/TranslateNodeExtension
The code is properly documented and should be easy to read and understand. When there are any problems or issues, please comment, I'll tackle them right away!

* optimized determination dependant areas
* fixed some issues with scale node
There are still some issues when scaling very small values (x=0.0001)

Previous alpha-overing on black for RGB display wasn't so much useful
for artists, changed in a way:
- Made RGBA display default for node editor backdrop and image editor,
so it'll be clear that image does have alpha channel
- RGB display will ignore alpha channel completely
Reshuffled buttons for RGBA/RGB so now the order is following:
RGBA | RGB | Alpha | Z
Still to come: startup.blend shall be altered to make RGBA default.
The operator names all show up in the Search button. As such is nicer if they
can all have the main words capitalized.
e.g. "Snap strips" should be "Snap Strips"
"Copy to clipboard" should be "Copy to Clipboard"
This was done with a mix of bash tools, regex, and manual work because I'm too rushed into regex :)

- Cycles materials now render in Blender Internal too, skipping the nodes.
Not very useful, but at least things then show up on renders and in
previews.
- Node editor: if wrong shader nodes are in a tree, they draw with thene
color RED ALERT headers now. (Switching render engine will show it).
This is actually a bit arbitrary decision and mainly it preserves
compatibility with how images were displaying in previous releases.
In fact, we actually would need to think about configurable backdrop
color and blending mode to be used for display in RGB mode.
It introduces a new (py-extendable and registrable) RNA type, UIList (roughly similar to Panel one), which currently contains only "standard" list's scroll pos and size (but may be expended to include e.g. some filtering data, etc.). This now makes lists completely independent from Panels!
This UIList has a draw_item callback which allows to customize items' drawing from python, that all addons can now use. Incidentally, this also greatly simplifies the C code of this widget, as we do not code any "special case" here anymore!
To make all this work, other changes were also necessary:
* Now all buttons (uiBut struct) have a 'custom_data' void pointer, used currently to store the uiList struct associated with a given uiLayoutListBox.
* DynamicPaintSurface now exposes a new bool, use_color_preview (readonly), saying whether that surface has some 3D view preview data or not.
* UILayout class has now four new (static) functions, to get the actual icon of any RNA object (important e.g. with materials or textures), and to get an enum item's UI name, description and icon.
* UILayout's label() func now takes an optional 'icon_value' integer parameter, which if not zero will override the 'icon' one (mandatory to use "custom" icons as generated for material/texture/... previews).
Note: not sure whether we should add that one to all UILayout's prop funcs?
Note: will update addons using template list asap.
With the view3d 'Render Only' option, grease pencil wouldn't draw, but for OpenGL render it did.
Since grease pencil can be very useful in opengl renders, enable grease pencil drawing with 'Render Only' option in the viewport,
and add a checkbox in the grease pencil header not to draw (unchecking each layer is annoying and applies to all spaces).
Nice formatted version (pictures soon):
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.66/Usability
Short list of main changes:
- Transparent region option (over main region), added code to blend in/out such panels.
- Min size window now 640 x 480
- Fixed DPI for ui - lots of cleanup and changes everywhere. Icon image need correct size still, layer-in-use icon needs remake.
- Macbook retina support, use command line --no-native-pixels to disable it
- Timeline Marker label was drawing wrong
- Trackpad and magic mouse: supports zoom (hold ctrl)
- Fix for splash position: removed ghost function and made window size update after creation immediate
- Fast undo buffer save now adds UI as well. Could be checked for regular file save even...
Quit.blend and temp file saving use this now.
- Dixed filename in window on reading quit.blend or temp saves, and they now add a warning in window title: "(Recovered)"
- New Userpref option "Keep Session" - this always saves quit.blend, and loads on start.
This allows keeping UI and data without actual saves, until you actually save.
When you load startup.blend and quit, it recognises the quit.blend as a startup (no file name in header)
- Added 3D view copy/paste buffers (selected objects). Shortcuts ctrl-c, ctrl-v (OSX, cmd-c, cmd-v).
Coded partial file saving for it. Could be used for other purposes. Todo: use OS clipboards.
- User preferences (themes, keymaps, user settings) now can be saved as a separate file.
Old option is called "Save Startup File" the new one "Save User Settings".
To visualise this difference, the 'save startup file' button has been removed from user preferences window. That option is available as CTRL+U and in File menu still.
- OSX: fixed bug that stopped giving mouse events outside window.
This also fixes "Continuous Grab" for OSX. (error since 2009)
There was a missing image reload signal in node creation by drag-dropping,
which lead to incorrectly set image type.
Also fixed misusage of IMB_freeImBuf used to release buffer acquired by
BKE_image_acquire_ibuf.
from main thread using job update callback.
Added new execution-time callback to bNodeTree which marks job to be updated.
The code here could be a bit not so obvious because in some cases job update
callback need to merge local tree, but it's only needed for old compositor
system which is gonna to be removed soon, so decided not to bother with
cleanup now. Removing old compositor system will also allow to drop stats_draw
callback from bNodeTree.
This should fix following bugs:
This commit makes BKE_image_acquire_ibuf referencing result, which means once
some area requested for image buffer, it'll be guaranteed this buffer wouldn't
be freed by image signal.
To de-reference buffer BKE_image_release_ibuf should now always be used.
To make referencing working correct we can not rely on result of
image_get_ibuf_threadsafe called outside from thread lock. This is so because
we need to guarantee getting image buffer from list of loaded buffers and it's
referencing happens atomic. Without lock here it is possible that between call
of image_get_ibuf_threadsafe and referencing the buffer IMA_SIGNAL_FREE would
be called. Image signal handling too is blocking now to prevent such a
situation.
Threads are locking by spinlock, which are faster than mutexes. There were some
slowdown reports in the past about render slowdown when using OSX on Xeon CPU.
It shouldn't happen with spin locks, but more tests on different hardware would
be really welcome. So far can not see speed regressions on own computers.
This commit also removes BKE_image_get_ibuf, because it was not so intuitive
when get_ibuf and acquire_ibuf should be used.
Thanks to Ton and Brecht for discussion/review :)
As it turned out, the node space was the only place we have the option to sample the backdrop buffer RGB, but not the zed.
This code is copied from image space.
Now one can use the viewer node and sample the depth while looking at the color buffer (so Map Range Node works even better)

this node allows for more control for normalization of the mapped input range.
Made during BlenderPRO 2012 - Brasilia, Brazil :)
Idea and testing: Daniel Salazar
Implementation: yours truly

- remove double promotions
- use UI_DPI_ICON_FAC macro rather then dpi/72
- add assert to prevent creating jobs with WM_JOB_TYPE_ANY, which should only be used for finding jobs.
for now subtype is not defined, but once we start parsing the metadata we can set texture inputs as FILEPATH
also, it takes relative strings and convert to absolute for all strings (which is arguably a good solution, but
should work for now)
if make group is called with only one node selected ALL the node sockets are linked to the node group
with help+review from Lukas Toenne
This patch aims towards motivating users to use Group Node to share OSL nodes
Cutting mulitple links with for inserting reroute nodes would previously insert only one reroute node for the first cut link.
Now the operator will insert a reroute node for every link in the cut line. Also, if several links share the same input/output socket, it will insert only a single reroute node, which all affected links will then share.
