Current startup .blend has old (percent?) values for particle brush strength.
Since rBe4e21480d6331903c90ab073746484498441e1ac, UI controls do not clamp automatically values anymore,
which means when you first enable comb (or any other brush) you get a 50 strength, waaaayyyy to powerful.
This commit fixes this in `BLO_update_defaults_startup_blend`, note that it does not fix custom users'
startup files, nothing to do here...
Without this, grabbing with normal weight will continually select new normals
based on where you move the cursor,
causing the normal location to flicker in a way which isn't controllable in any useful way.
Basically the default U.glalphaclip was 1.8367099231598242e-40 in some
computers (e.g., OSX 10.11, AMD Radeon HD 6750M) this value would need for bad
gl clipping.
The new default is 0.0. To test this before/after the fix, just run:
$ blender -b --factory-startup --python-expr "import bpy; print(bpy.context.user_preferences.system.gl_clip_alpha)"
There were 2 issues:
- toolbars were set initialized in user-defaults
so their scroll & zoom level were set.
- initializing new 2d views included the scroll width,
which scaled the new views zoom level, especially when dragging out.
* Don't copy name before entering new_id function. new_id does that for
us already.
* Take a main argument to make the function possible to use with
different databases
* Append BKE_ to rename_id
renamed to Rotate to match the tool name.
It is not actually compulsory that the two must match since users can
change the name of a brush arbitrarily but at least try to have
consistent naming in our defaults.
Historically blender had an audio sample rate of 44.1 kHz as default which is mostly popular because it's the sample rate of audio CDs. Audaspace kept using this default from the pre 2.5 era. It was about time to change to 48 kHz, which is a more widespread standard nowadays, especially in video. It is the recommended sampling rate of the Audio Engineering Society.

painting.
Also system added a brush every time it found no paint brush in the
system which is not what we would want.
Solution:
* Brush panel stays visible always, regardless of whether there is a
brush or not.
* We search for first available brush when we find no brush in paint
struct instead of always generating a new one.
* Generating and searching for a brush take a mode argument now. Needed
some refactoring to users of BKE_paint_init as well.
* Did some style cleanups for paint mode enums.
Patch is big but it's mostly argument refactoring.
'ar->winy' may not be initialized, making regions zoom in (past limits)
and attempt to draw very large text (~10x10k size characters), often crashing.
Fix isn't complete since it only corrects factory startup.
This change introduces a new hysteresis parameter that it will be added
or subtracted to/from the LOD distance to avoid popping when a LOD
object moves close to the LOD transition continuously.
Then, we have the following:
- a new LOD Hysteresis setting per scene (default 10%) which is located
in Scene context --> Level of Detail panel. This scene parameter also
will active/deactive the scene hysteresis.
- and a new LOD Hysteresis setting per object (default 10%) which is
located in Object context --> Levels of Detail panel. The LOD hysteresis
setting per object (if active) will overwrite the hysteresis setting per
scene value.
For the new blends: the hysteresis setting per scene would be active by
default and the per object would be inactive by default.
For the old blends: both hysteresis settings (per scene and per object)
would be inactive by default. A quick way to take advantage of this
feature for old blends would be to activate the hysteresis parameter in
the scene context -> Level of Detail panel

Some brushes really do the same thing and we have agreed not to offer
extra presets for one brush type. Removed those brushes from default
.blend. They are Polish (Flatten Contrast does the same), Brush (Does
the same as draw) and Draw from texpaint (where texdraw/draw does the
same)
Features:
* Both still image and animation rendering, as well as polygon
fills are supported.
* The exporter creates a new SVG layer for every Freestyle line
set. The different layers are correctly sorted.
* SVG paths use data from line styles, so the base color of a
line style becomes the color of paths, idem for dashes and
stroke thickness.
* Strokes can be split at invisible parts. This functionality is
useful when exporting for instance dashed lines or line styles
with a Blue Print shader
* The exporter can be used not only in the Parameter Editor mode,
but also from within style modules written for the Python
Scripting mode.

The following two sort keys are added for sorting chains.
* Projected X - Sort by the projected X value in the image coordinate system.
* Projected Y - Sort by the projected Y value in the image coordinate system.
A new line style option for the selection of first N chains is also added.
Moreover, the chain sorting and chain selection operations are now executed
in this order instead of the reverse order used previously. The UI has also
changed accordingly. This functional change is backward compatible and
won't result in visual differences.
In this case, we want to use defaults as defined by UI code (among other, from order of registering),
there is no point in storing those data in factory startup.
Rename UI_init_userdef_factory to BLO_update_defaults_userpref_blend
This closely matches BLO_update_defaults_startup_blend so makes sense for them to be together.
New properties 'line_color' and 'line_priority' are added to Material ID data blocks.
The 'line_color' property allows users to specify a per-material line color that can be
used as a Freestyle line color through Material color modifiers of line style settings.
The new line color property is intended to provide a solution for line color
stylization when a proper Freestyle support for Cycles is implemented (likely
as part of the upcoming Blender 2.72 release; see Patch D632). Materials in
Cycles are usually set up using shader nodes, and Freestyle won't be capable
of retrieving colors and other properties from node-based materials any soon.
The new line color property of materials addresses this foreseen limitation by
providing artists with an intuitive alternative mean to specify line colors on a
per-material basis independently from node trees.
The 'line_priority' property gives users a way to control line colors at material
boundaries. When a line is drawn along a feature edge at material boundaries,
one of the two materials on both sides of the edge has to be picked up to
determine the line color. So far there was no way to control this selection
(which was in effect at random). Now the material with a higher line color
priority will be selected.
The new per-material line settings are shown in the new Freestyle Line tab in
the Material context of the Properties window (only when Freestyle is enabled).
Line styles now have a set of new options for rearranging the stacking order of lines.
This gives artists more control to determine which lines should be drawn on top of others.
Two available sort keys are the distance from camera and curvilinear 2D length.
Since the distance of a line from camera may vary over vertices, another option called
integration type is used to compute the sort key for a line from the values computed at
individual vertices. Available integration types are MEAN, MIN, MAX, FIRST and LAST
(see the tool tips for more detail).
* Add a new calcLoopNormals function to DerivedMesh struct, and implement it for CDDM and CCGDM (subsurf).
EditDerivedBMesh (edit mode DM) only gets a dummy one in this commit.
* Add a tessellated version of CD_LOOPNORMAL layer (CD_TESSLOOPNORMAL), with relevant code to handle it
(tessellation, rna access, etc.).
* Change auto_smooth options of Mesh (angle now in radian internaly, and toggle is now used to enable/disable
split normals in DM creation process). Note BI render code is not touched here, hence its behavior regarding
this option is now incoherent, will be addressed in a separate commit.

Z, Index, normal, UV and vector passes are only affected by surfaces with alpha
transparency equal to or higher than this threshold. With value 0.0 the first
surface hit will always write to these passes, regardless of transparency. With
higher values surfaces that are mostly transparent can be skipped until an opaque
surface is encountered.

This makes more sense in the new alpha pipeline, renders no longer contain an
alpha channel that does not match the RGB channels, so saving files as RGBA
should give the expected results when opening them in other applications.

This function can be emptied each time a new startup.blend is committed.
