- Splited off the event treatment into a fonction of its own
- Splited off the initialisation phase into a function of its own (will have to do it for the manipulator function too)
Calling transform now works like this:
initTransform(mode, context)
- possible post init calls, constraints mostly
Transform()
- eventually, the postTransform function, so that Transform is just a simple big loop which could in the end just be tied in the blender event system instead.
- Added a state variable in TransInfo to replace the ret_val local variable. Possible values are: TRANS_RUNNING, TRANS_CANCEL, TRANS_CONFIRM
- Tied MMB and the hotkey select for constraint together, so selecting an axis with MMB and pressing the axis key after that goes to local mode on that axis. Much less confusing.
Martin; I've added calls like:
BIF_TransformSetUndo("Add Duplicate");
In advance of calling transform itself, to indicate that this is the
string name to be used for Undo, and also has to be done on ESC.
To make that possible I had to add a memset() to zero the global struct
TransInfo. Nicely done with if(Trans.mode==TRANS_INIT)
Not sure how this relates to setting constraints in advance... I always
found it tricky to work a non-initalized global struct. :)
because Martin recoded the Mirror().
- removed old globals like 'tottrans' or 'centre' or 'centroid' as used
by old transform
- removed a lot of code from editobject.c
- moved all transform related code to transform_conversions.c
(Note for Martin; sorry that's a mess... it now has all the weird
functions for finding posemode dependencies... thats for the depgraph
phase to remove)
Updated the menus to work with that too.
Of course, this doesn't work in object mode right now, because resize I haven't fixed negative resize (yet).
Again, this would have easily benefited of a stand alone init and post Transform functions. When I have time... :|
Proportional edit:
- Proportional mode added to header as button/menu. Including new option
to have only connected geometry influenced.
- Added icons for proportional & proportional modes
- Make proportional edit data part of Scene, so all gets saved.
The Global flag G_PROPORTIONAL was removed
- Made sure #defines get used properly, also tweaked order for proportional
so it starts with regular 'smooth' by default.
- Use ALT+O in editmode to switch to new proportional 'connected' mode
Other UI stuff:
- in EditMode, the layer buttons get hidden... the amount of icons in
3d header grows to fast. :)
- made less ugly icons for the Manipulators. Still can be better.
- Added alpha-filter for pre-processing Icon-image, giving nicer display
of icon-antialising on dark or bright backdrops
- disabled Manipulators when in editmode, and current layers don't show
the edited data.
- Added the value used to define Normal size (editmode draw) in Scene too,
so it gets saved.
Push/Pull had a problem with constraints enabling/disabling. Fixed
Restablished infinite line for constraint draw (when not using manipulator) as discussed in meeting.
Behavior is a bit different. Instead of showing the weird two value thing like the old transform did, it always show the weight variation in +/- that is applied to every edge. Works a bit like scale. Move away from center to increase, move closer to decrease (between -1.0 and 1.0).
Works with PET (not using connection yet).
Also removed some missed global Trans variable abuse.
- on add new SoftBody, it creates automatically edges in Mesh now, gives
too confusing results otherwise
- if no edges exist in mesh, it also doesnt add diagonals for faces in
softbody
Transform;
- fixed stupid 'used unitialized' gcc warning (sorry theeth!)
- made dualAxisConstraint() accept string too
- little cleanup of prints in using Manipulators
PET is now checked as a transform flag during transform. Much cleaner that way for NOPET context (extrude, duplicate)
Added Sphere as a new PET falloff mode (icon and all) and reordered them around in a more logical fashion (IMHO).
Also brought back Subsurf toggle with Shift-O (was supposed to be for PET object mode but that was canned).
Accesible with Shift-P (was free), the behavior is much like Shrink/Fatten. Pull mouse toward you to pull toward center, push away to push away. Constraint and PET works with it too, of course.
Replaced old transform call when extruding and duplicating. Added a CTX_NOPET context flag for extrude. This is done rather a bit hackishly in Transform right now, better to do it with a on/off pet flag in TransInfo and check that everywhere instead.
Made sure transinfo Ext was initialised at NULL (I'm pretty sure it was in another spot, but LetterRip reported some crash leading me to believe that it might not be all the time. Better be safe than sorry).
Connected PET for curves uses the real distance for the fall off calculations now.
- added 'ghosting' for while using translate/scaling widget
- added 'pie chart' ghost to denote angle while using rotate widget
- added settings to tweak widget in User menu (InfoWindow) "View & Control"
- Size: total widget size as percentage of window size
- Handle: as percentage of widget radius
- Hotspot: for clicking handles, in pixels
- Fized Size: option to make Widget size independent of window size
Not sure if all of these are useful to keep, but makes for good testing
in this stage.
Also: made #define to use new transform to be set TRUE by default now. :)
To use; press the (temporal) icon in header. Switching widget types is by
pressing G, R or S once, if current widget type is different it switches,
otherwise it goes to normal Transform().
Widgets need a bit test for picking accuracy, correct drawing etc.
The rotate widget has a center button for 'trackball' rotate. That latter
can also be used for hotkey-based rotate.
In current code, all widgets remain in "Global" space, also in editmode.
Also widget updates while using normal transform has to be done.
2 Bugfixes:
- rotate in PoseMode had error for 2d 'around' center
- transform in postemode could crash, due to typo (& or |)
- Made framework for 3d Transform Manipulators (widgets)
- The Manipulators act like '2d buttons', by default with LeftMouse and with
while-hold-move-release
- Implemented now: Translation Widget, which allows:
- four hotspots for axis grab or view-aligned grab
- center defined by 'around' setting
- SHIFT+LMB gives planar constraint on other 2 axes
- works in Object mode and Edit mode (not posemode yet)
Enable it with (temporal) icon in 3D header. All other 'normal' transforms
then keeps working btw.
On the todo for this widget:
- choice for Global, Local or Normal orientation
The way the widgets are going to work is in review still. Commit is also for
Matt for his proposal/paper on topic.
Some notes regarding this project;
- no life updates (on mouse over) like 3DS, I think that's neurotic
- on click, dominant axis changes to theme defined "Transform" color, other axes disappear, like maya
- manipulater size is fixed preset, independent zoom.
- manipulator follows selection, and is located based on 'around' mode
Unresolved;
- in maya, when you select 2 or more objects, the manipulator draws on the 'active' object, also interesting
- what to do with G,R,S hotkeys? It could switch the manipulator "mode"...
- header button/menu for manipulator mode?
Fixed Extrude constraint. Needed to premul the normal by the object's matrix to but it in global space.
Also, moved the Locking Axis modifier (for constraints) from Alt to Shift. Alt was conflicting with middle mouse button emulation (reported in the test builds forum).
Tilt Transformation.
Brought back Shrink/Fatten. Changed the behavior a bit, move the cursor to the right to move toward the normal, to the left to move backward. Please comment.
Only works with meshes, defaults to resize otherwise.
- restored 'Warp' (Shift+W). Should work like before, including type mode
and holding ctrl/shift modifiers
- added CTRL event in queue, to only redraw when you press it. looks nicer.
- added texture space grab/scale (TKEY objectmode)
- made new transform work with menus (meaning, dropping dreaded while-hold)
To Martin & other while-hold lovers: this needs to be carefully thought over
and designed. I prefer to look on this within context of making transform
fully tablet/pen friendly, as option. Aim now for me is still: get transform
back to work! :)
Brought back functionality to work with "Ipo Keys" (Kkey in 3d window). New
transform code is looking more messy now... its design was not purposed to
clean on this level. Acceptable for this stage however.
Also renamed old variables *tob into *td.
work. :)
- added static and (void) and some style stuff in transform.c
- first additions in code for posemode (do not even try now!)
- fixed warnings in previous commit martin (gcc only)
Note; posemode old transform had complex dependencies on redraw (Hos' home
grown dep graph), which is first being restored. Including old style
set_base_flags_for_editing. Tomorrow!
On a side note, Shear was fixed in last commit, just forgot to mention it. It wasn't acting correctly in Edit Mode (and Desoto was poking me about it every sunday).
