This commit is just meant to give the new GUI framework a concrete shape.
There is no usefulness in newly introduced elements at the moment.
Freestyle options in render layers now include a pull-down menu named Control
Mode that allows you to choose either the Python Scripting or Parameter Editor
mode. The Python Scripting mode is the conventional way of controlling
Freestyle by directly using style modules written in Python. The Parameter
Editor is a new control mode that is intended to be used by everyone without
relying on Python programming.
In the Parameter Editor mode, you can specify multiple line sets for each
render layer. A line set defines feature edge selection criteria, as
well as a line style for drawing the selected feature edges using specific
line stylization parameters. Line style is a new datablock type, meaning
that a line style can be shared by multiple line sets (possibly those in
different render layers in different scenes).
Much more additions are anticipated in subsequent commits to implement UI
controls for specifying feature edge selection criteria and line stylization
parameters.
utility functions to find the groups and scenes this object is used in.
button to set the group location from the cursor (UI is horrible but not any nice place to add?)
smarp project would fail if there were linked meshes in the scene, made ID.tag ignore the library, so you can tag linked data since its only for tools to use.
normalize the vertex normal before setting and use inline vector functions.
for panels it would fail silently but for menu's it meant further references would give errors.
increase the registered class name from 32 to 64 and raise an error if the limit reached.
This allows you to set and animate the values of socket inputs and outputs, for example the value node.
It's also a step on the way to manipulating node trees via python (i.e. linking node sockets to each other).
This fixes [#19841] RGB Node in compositor not working
Added new template for choosing to use any type of ID-block. The first combo box allows you to choose the type of ID-block that gets used, and the second box allows you to choose the ID-block of the type specified by the first one.
This is currently used for setting the ID-block used for Keying Sets, but the main user for this was intended to be the Drivers UI. However, I still need to clear up a few button-event issues there before I can port this over.
Additional Bugfixes:
* Adding new Keying Set path was setting the active path wrong, meaning that you had to click on the list to get some response after adding
* Bone Groups list was being drawn too long by default (when empty)
* Move mesh API functions to mesh_data.c, would like to keep
RNA layer fairly thin, any non-trivial functions shoud be
in their modules.
* Replace mesh.create_copy by generic id.copy.
* Fix#19250: Mesh.add_geometry() in editmode fails silently,
now gives an error.
* Grease Pencil datablocks can now be properly browsed/added/unlinked from the UI panels
* Made Grease Pencil use the brush icon for now. A proper icon for this would be nice ;)
* Wrapped Grease Pencil datatypes in RNA.
* Hooked up Grease Pencil access in RNA (i.e. via Main, ID, and Scene)
TODO:
Updates to properties are currently lacking property-update calls, since there's no good notifier for this.
possible from python, but it's still work in progress.
Pointers and collections are restricted to types derived from
IDPropertyGroup (same as for operators), because RNA knows how to
allocate/deallocate those.
Collections have .add() and .remove(number) functions that can be
used. The remove function should be fixed to take an other argument
than a number.
With the IDPropertyGroup restriction, pointers are more like nested
structs. They don't have add(), remove() yet, not sure where to put
them. Currently the pointer / nested struct is automatically allocated
in the get() function, this needs to be fixed, rule is that RNA get()
will not change any data for thread safety.
Also, it is only possible to add properties to structs after they have
been registered, which needs to be improved as well.
Example code:
http://www.pasteall.org/7201/python
* Insert Keyframes menu now only displays the 'active keyingset' entry when there are some KeyingSets.
* Moved the validation code for auto-blending/extend modes to NLA editor code, and included calls for this in many of the editing tools for NLA strips.
* Removed obsolete 'ID_IPO' entries from RNA-ID wrapping (these were commented out anyway).
Merging changes made by Arystanbek in the soc-2009-kazanbas branch,
plus some things modified and added by me.
* The API files now all in the makesrna module, convention is to
call them e.g. rna_mesh_api.c for rna_mesh.c. Note for visual
studio build maintainers, the rna_*_api.c files are compiled as
part of "makesrna", but do not have rna_*_gen.c generated as part
of the library. SCons/cmake/make were updated.
* Added function flags FUNC_USE_CONTEXT and FUNC_USE_REPORTS, to
allow RNA functions to get context and error reporting parameters
optionally. Renamed FUNC_TYPESTATIC to FUNC_NO_SELF.
* RNA collections now have a pointer to add/remove FunctionRNA's, this
isn't actually used anywhere yet, purpose is to make an alias
main.meshes.add() for main.add_mesh() in python.
* Fixes to make autogenerating property set/get for multidimensional
arrays work, though a 4x4 matrix will be exposed as a length 16
one dimensional RNA array.
* Functions and properties added:
* Main.add_mesh()
* Main.remove_mesh()
* Object.matrix
* Object.create_render_mesh()
* WindowManager.add_fileselect()
* Accept None as NULL pointers through python function calls.
* Added type callback for pointers back, it's useful still in
some cases. Made Object.data editable using this, the pointer
type varying based on object type.
* Wrap pin ID pointer in buttons space.
* Added subclasses for text and surface curve ID blocks, to
organize data better and get proper icons.
* Added RNA_type_to_ID_code and ID_code_to_RNA_type functions.
* Update RNA_access.h with new RNA types.
* Added PROP_ID_REFCOUNT flag to control if refcounting should
be done on ID pointer properties. All ID pointers are refcounted,
by default, with the exception of Object, Scene and Text.
* Also made TextureFace image pointer editable, with the special
refcounting behavior.
* Any Struct can now have ID properties, by creating a callback
function to create/return an IDProperty.
* Wrapped PoseChannel ID properties.
* Note there is still no way to create ID Properties in 2.5, though
the callback to get/create the initial group is now exposed through
RNA_struct_idproperties.
* Added REQUIRED flag for function parameters.
* Made dupliframes/verts/faces/groups an enum, and make it editable.
* Enum bitflags were broken, fixed.
which can be defined to call C functions with defined parameters.
* Parameters are RNA properties, with the same types.
* Parameters are stored in a ParameterList, which is like a small
stack with the values. This is then used to call the C function.
* Includes Python integration.
* Only one test function is part of this commit, ID.rename.
* Integration with the editors/ module is not included in this
commit, there's some issues to be worked out for that still.
* Allow pointers to be editable, did SpaceTextEditor.text as a test.
* Changed PROP_NOT_EDITABLE to PROP_EDITABLE, and added
RNA_def_property_clear_flag.
* Removed rna_dependency.c test code.
- Added an autogenerated C++ API, basically a simple layer over the C
API, but with the advantage that it fits the object oriented RNA
model better. Read-only still like the C API.
- Had to rename "protected" property in Action Group because it is
a C++ keyword, called it "locked" since that seems more consistent
anyway?
- It's not used anywhere, so here's some example code I used to test it,
to get an idea of how it would be used:
http://pasteall.org/4582/cpp
- Also, ID names are now editable.
* Added Particle wrapping patch by Roelf de Kock. It's not
complete yet and I haven't reviewed it, but committing anyway,
will get to it later.
* Added "Percentage" subtype for floats. Doesn't really do
much besides making auto rna buttons into sliders rather than
numeric inputs, but can later display in % rather than 0.0-1.0.
It's about time that the RNA wrapping for various parts of the animation system were cleaned up for my recent changes. I've moved some code around (and/or deleted a file or two) in the process.
* Finished DNA_lamp_types.h, DNA_world_types.h and DNA_sound_types.h.
* Renamed "parent" struct property to "nested", and also remaining "from"
usage to "base".
* Added a NEVER_NULL subtype for pointers and use it for all properties
that apply.
* Make sure all structs have a description, and fix any other DOC_BROKEN
descriptions, also many other naming consistency improvements.
* Added support for sending notifiers and updates when setting
RNA properties. Per property, there is a notifier NC_/ND_ flag,
and a function that is called. Currently only used for
Object.loc/rot/size.
* RNA_property_update that does this is not automatically called
in every _set function, it has do be done separate, and is being
done by buttons with RNA data.
* Perhaps for python there could be a trick to accumulate these
flags rather than update each time, though for now the python
RNA code could just do them everytime. Did not add these calls
in the python code yet because it needs context, not sure where
to get that from?
* Added support for using pointers + collections as operator properties,
but with the restriction that they must point to other type derived from
ID property groups. The "add" function for these properties will allocate
a new ID property group and point to that.
* Added support for arrays with type IDP_GROUP in ID properties.
* Fix bug getting/setting float array values.
Example code for collections, note the "OperatorMousePath" type is defined
in rna_wm.c and has a float[2] property named "loc".
Defining the operator property:
prop= RNA_def_property(ot->srna, "path", PROP_COLLECTION, PROP_NONE);
RNA_def_property_struct_runtime(prop, &RNA_OperatorMousePath);
Adding values:
PointerRNA itemptr;
float loc[2] = {1, 1},
RNA_collection_add(op->ptr, "path", &itemptr);
RNA_float_set_array(&itemptr, "loc", loc);
Iterating:
RNA_BEGIN(op->ptr, itemptr, "path") {
float loc[2];
RNA_float_get_array(&itemptr, "loc", loc);
printf("Location: %f %f\n", loc[0], loc[1]);
}
RNA_END;
