- re-arranged UI in a way that gave far too much vert scrolling.
- was added all over for simple things like making text="", layout engine should handle this.
- Ton and Brecht are ok with removing this now. Ton would like to work on the layout engine to make it better support these cases.
poll() function is now a static method in python, this is more correct, matching C where the operator is not created to run poll.
def poll(self, context): ...
is now...
@staticmethod
def poll(context): ...
Pythons way of doing static methods is a bit odd but cant be helped :|
This does make subclassing poll functions with COMPAT_ENGINES break, so had to modify quite a few scripts for this.
*The narrowui value was hard coded in all ui scripts, made an user preferences option. Basically this value determines on which area width, it should switch between dual/single column layout.
ToDo: The Changes only take effect when reloading scripts/restarting Blender (after saving as default). Will maybe add the "Reload Scripts" operator next to the button in the future.
* Small fix for Fluid Add Button, when in single column mode. Didn't expand like the other "Add" Buttons.
'Mask layers' should be visible always, they still work to mask out objects on
layers when zmask isn't on (zmask is slightly different.. a bit confusing)
Icon tweaks too
This adds a new presets menu in the splash screen and the Input section of
User Preferences to choose a preset interaction style, consisting of key configurations
and also other user preferences such as select mouse button, view rotation style, etc.
Currently, just 'Blender' and 'Maya' presets are included, hopefully we can have more
presets contributed (and maintained!) by the community.
It's best to keep these presets minimal to avoid too many key conflicts. In the Maya one
I changed the view manipulation key/mouse combos and also the transform
manipulator keys, not much more than that.
To save an interaction preset, open the user preferences Input section, and press the
[ + ] button next to the presets menu. It will save out a .py file containing any edited key
maps and navigation preferences to the presets/interaction folder in your scripts folder.

Part of this commit changes the way that key maps are exported/displayed in
preferences - now partial key configs are allowed. Previously it would export/import the
entire key configuration, regardless of whether individual key maps were edited or not
(which would make them more susceptible to conflicts in unexpected areas).
(note, in blender terminology, a key map is a category of key items, such as
'Object Mode' or 'View 2d'.)
Now, the export and the UI display work in a similar way to how key maps are
processed internally - Locally edited key maps (after pressing the 'Edit' button) are
processed first, falling back to other key maps in the current key config, and then falling
back to the default key config. So it's possible for a key config to only include a few
key maps, and the rest just gets pulled from the default key config. The preferences
UI display works like this too behind the scenes in deciding what to show users,
however using it is just like it was before, the complexity is hidden.
Supports default OSX codecs : Linear PCM, Apple Lossless and AAC
Note that AAC codec doesn't support sample rates above 48kHz. If a python/rna guru knows how to easily enforce this limit, he is welcome!
Enjoy making Quicktime movies now with audio!
encoding format
Bypassed existing hardcoded ffmpeg presets that executed when changing
format, replaced with bpy presets.
Leaving old code there for now, haven't got python/rna access to the ffmpeg
id properties.. Anyone know how to do this?
Code snippets here: http://www.pasteall.org/11657/c
Running scripts directly didnt call the register function, even though this is not essential its good to be able to run a script directly and see changes in the UI.
- recode of the whole sequencer audio handling
- encode audio flag removed, instead you choose None as audio codec, added None for video codec too
- ffmpeg formats/codecs: enabled: theora, ogg, vorbis; added: matroska, flac (not working, who can fix?), mp3, wav
- sequencer wave drawing
- volume animation (now also working when mixing down to a file!)
- made sequencer strip position and length values unanimatable
Disables save buffers and full sample when render border is turned on (render doesn't work otherwise because save buffers doesn't support border rendering).
Ambient occlusion: multiplied with direct lighting by default, add
is also still available and more blending methods might be added if
they are useful. This is fundamentally a non physical effect.
Environment lighting: always added as you would expect (though you can
subtract by specifying negative energy). This can be just white or take
colors or textures from the world.
Indirect lighting: only supported for AAO at the moment (and is still
too approximate), and also is always added. A factor is available to
specify how much is added, though value 1.0 is correct.
Also:
* Material ambient value now defaults to 1.0.
* Added Environment, Indirect and Emit pass.
* "Both" blending method is no longer available.
* Attenuation, sampling parameters are still shared, some could be split
up, though if they are different this would affect performance.
- scene.render_data.frame_path(frame=num), returns the output path for rending images of video.
- scene.render_data.file_extension, readonly attribute, gives the extension ".jpg", ".mov" etc
- player support was guessing names, use the above functions to get the actual names used, accounting for #'s replacing numbers.
- add back quad split order option.
note: tested displacement baking and found it matches 2.4x. there is still a missing check which ignores the active object when baking selected to active but Im not sure in what cases this is needed.
