In order to give import/export script authors the ability to add properties
to inidividual faces, vertices and edges in the same manner as they are able
to do with ID structures three new custom data types have been added to blender
for floats, integers and strings.
Things to note:
-Since property Layers are custom data, they are added to all verts, edges
or faces at once.
-Only one property layer for each unique property name may exist. In other
words, you cannot have a float layer as well as an integer layer
both with the same name.
-No user interface for this exists at the moment.
The following methods and attributes have been added to the Blender.Mesh
Python module and it's object types:
->MVert/Edge/FaceSeq:
addPropertyLayer(name, type)
removePropertyLayer(name)
renamePropertyLayer(original name, new name)
properties(readonly list.)
->MVert/Edge/Face
getProperty(name)
setProperty(name, value)
->Mesh module
PropertyTypes (readonly dictionary)
Lattice.c - removed warning
Mesh.c - (own error) when running me.update(key="...") didnt update the right keyframe.
mesh_cleanup.py - Bugfix from a report by plumiferos that started uncovering all the memory leaks.
Removing NAN verts didnt work with mesh keyframes.
Data from Armature.c and logic.c still leaks.
Mostly todo with PyList_Append adding a refcount and the bpython api not decrefing.
Also added some features needed to fix a bug in mesh_clean.py (ob.pinShape and ob.activeShape)
* Added a keyword argument to mesh.transform() - "selected_only" so you can transform the selected verts. this wont break existing scripts.
* Documented these changes in epydocs.
* used these functions in BPyAddMesh
made all libdata hashable - use the object type,name and lib for the hash.
added .tag to libdata so we can test if data's been processed without using dictionaries
added libdataseq.tag (write only) setting the tag flag (which can always be dirty)
added a function - GenericLib_assignData for assigning blender data, to assign an ipo to a camera or world to a scene for instance.
Using this function removed ~300 lines of code.
also fixes user count error in some places that didnt check.
also made it possible to clear the colorband by setting it to []
Fixed bug #6153, Blender Crash during rendering (internal) with object selected in edit mode.
* Added a render parameter to several of multires's functions. If render==true, multires won't push data onto the undo stack, and regular Mesh data is always used (as opposed to EditMesh data.)
* Added data.lib attributes to almost all data types, (except for Text3d and NLA)
This is None or the path of the library as a string.
* Main was giving a warning, Include Curve.h rather then CurNurb.h
* Added Library.LinkedLibs(), returns a list of externaly linked libs.
Mesh - removing UV or Color layers didnt check if the active object was in vpaint of uv mode, removing the last layer could crash blender - now switch to object mode if its the last layer like the UI.
Can only change levels and values at the moment. adding and removing is still needed.
multires: bool
multiresLevelCount: int
multiresDrawLevel: int
multiresEdgeLevel: int
multiresPinLevel: int
multiresRenderLevel: int
Updated Python Mesh API to support UV and Color layers with names.
Similar to vertex group's
renamed a function in customdata.c CustomData_free_layers -> CustomData_free_layers_active and made CustomData_free_layers accept an index, this is needed so python could free layers that arnt active.
----------
Undo for part of previous commit. Campbell reminded me that UV texture faces
aren't "users" like other objects, so removing the code which changes them.
----------
Bugfix/enhancement: allow image of mesh's UV faces to be removed/cleared by
"del f.image" or "f.image = None", and handle image user counts correctly
when assigning/clearing images.
added python api stuff to deal with Color and UV/Image layers.
me.activeUvLayer - int
me.activeColorLayer - int
me.totUvLayers - int
me.totColorLayers - int
me.addUvLayer()
me.addColorLayer()
me.removeUvLayer()
me.removeColorLayer()
Variable names may need changing.
These can be created and deleted in the Mesh panel in the same place as
before. There is always one active UV and vertex color layer, that is
edited and displayed.
Important things to do:
- Render engine, material support
- Multires and NMesh now lose non active layers
Also CustomData changes to support muliple layers of the same type, and
changes to layer allocation, updated documentation is here:
http://mediawiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/BlenderArchitecture/CustomData
This commit upgrades the modifier stack to only calculate the data which is
needed, either by modifiers further down the stack or by other functions at
the end of the stack (e.g. drawing functions).
This speeds up modifier stack recalculation, especially where vertex
groups and UV coordinates are concerned. For example, a mesh with an Armature
modifier followed by a Subsurf modifier would previously have required the
Subsurf modifier to interpolate all the vertex groups in the mesh, slowing
down modifier calculations considerably. With this update, vertex group data
is not propagated beyond the Armature modifier, so calculations are faster.
Note that this depends on the order of modifiers in the stack. If the Armature
and Subsurf modifiers were swapped in the above example, the Subsurf modifier
would have to interpolate vertex groups, as they are needed by the Armature
modifier.
Crash using Shape Widget Wizard script, was an error in customdata copy.
The script still throws a python error though, but that seems unrelated
to this crash.
