* Made object mode an enum, shows better in the debugger
* Added a toggle mode to the set object mode operator
* Toggling a mode on and off goes back to the previous mode, not just object mode
* Changed the vertex mode and weight mode shortcuts to call the toggle mode operator
when passing properties=True as argument.
Other changes:
* uiItemR, uiItemFullR, uiItemFullO now accept a flag argument rather
than multiple different "boolean" arguments, but still exposed as
booleans to python.
* Fix RNA to support setting PROP_RNAPTR for return values.
Made Hook Modifier be able to use bone targets. However, I haven't been able to verify that everything will work perfectly, since just creating a new Hook Modifier and assigning targets doesn't set hmd->indexar correctly.
* Popup menus now remember the last clicked item again.
* Modifier and File Format menus are now organized in multiple
columns with categories.
* Hook, explode, uv project modifiers have all their buttons
again with the relevant operators implemented.
* Modifiers that can't be added by the user, or don't work on
curves for example, are not in the menu anymore.
* Fix search menu overlapping buttons when near the bottom of
the screen.
* Fix uv layers search menu not working in some modifiers.
* Cleanup popup menu code a bit, layout engine is used in more
cases now instead of ugly position calculation code.
* Converted vertex paint to use the new stroke system. Now supports the same smooth stroke and stroke spacing as sculpt mode.
* Refactored the paint cursor a bit, just sculpt for now but other modes soon.
* A couple warning fixes
* Added OBJECT_OT_mode_set for setting the object mode. Takes one property, "mode", which can be any of the OB_MODE_* flags. The available modes are limited based on the active object (e.g. only meshes can have sculptmode, and so forth.)
* Set the icon properties in the object mode enum RNA
TODO:
At this point I think everything is ready to start ripping out the ugly hacks in view3d_header for setting the mode :)
* Pose mode was already object-localized, but moved the flag from object->flag to object->mode, with all the other modes.
* Updated object mode RNA
* Commented out some dubious use of base->flag with the posemode flag. So far as I could see the value was only being set, not read, so a hopefully safe change.
* Made texture paint object-localized too.
Note for Brecht: gpu_draw.c had three uses of G_TEXTUREPAINT that I was not able to cleanly fix, so commented out for now. Can you take a look and see what should be done here?
* Weightpaint is now object-local like sculpt and vertexpaint.
* Fixed a bug spotted by DingTo, going from editmode to sculptmode didn't fully leave editmode
* Replaced FACESEL_PAINT_TEST macro with paint_facesel_test. This removes one more thing from BKE_global, and it'll make it easier to localize.
* Fixed sculpt paint cursor sometimes not showing.
* Made sculpt mode local to object.
* This also fixes loading files from 2.4x saved in sculptmode
Touched a lot of things here, let me know if anything breaks
TODO:
* The other paint modes should be converted as well
Implementation Note:
* Moved the scene copy/unlink code back into blenkernel, with
the exception of the copy single user stuff which is still in
object_edit.c.
* Uses SCREENDELETE notifier like SCREENBROWSE, seems only clean
way to do this now.
* Fixed one of the items from Brecht's TODO mail. Exiting edit mode now restores any paint mode you might have been in, rather than going to object mode.
Operator goodies!
--- Macro operators
Operators now can consist of multiple operators. Such a macro operator
is identical and behaves identical to other opererators. Macros can
also be constructed of macros even! Currently only hardcoded macros are
implemented, this to solve combined operators such as 'add duplicate' or
'extrude' (both want a transform appended).
Usage is simple:
- WM_operatortype_append_macro() : add new operatortype, name, flags
- WM_operatortype_macro_define() : add existing operator to macro
(Note: macro_define will also allow properties to be set, doesnt work
right now)
On converting the macro wmOperatorType to a real operator, it makes a
list of all operators, and the standard macro callbacks (exec, invoke,
modal, poll) just will use all.
Important note; switching to a modal operator only works as last in the
chain now!
Macros implemented for duplicate, extrude and rip. Tool menu works fine
for it, also the redo hotkey F4 works properly.
--- Operator redo fix
The operators use the undo system to switch back, but this could give
errors if other actions added undo pushes (buttons, outliner). Now the
redo for operator searches back for the correct undo level.
This fixes issues with many redos.
Note for brecht: removed the ED_undo_push for buttons... it was called
on *every* button now, which is probably too much? For example, using
the 'toolbar' redo also caused this...
- It is possible to work with MetaBalls in edit mode now
- Added basic UI to the button window (feel free to change it :-))
- Header menus should work
- Undo & redo should work
- Removed global variable editelems and lastelem (moved it to the MetaBall struct)
- All tools from old editmball.c was converted to the operators
- Added lastelem to the RNA
- Experimental: mb->editelems is only pointer at mb->elems or NULL (depends on Mode). ListBase of MetaElems is not duplicated in edit mode.
Tested with scons at Linux and mac OS X
TODO:
- Recalc data after Undo or Redo
- Solve issue with basic MetaBall and Python UI script (only base MetaBall object influence Wiresize and Threshold)
- Fix orientation of manipulator in "Normal mode"
The code has been ported to the operator+rna system, however, there are currently issues related to how the pointer-rna's work for use as operator properties. (NOTE: RNA_property_pointer_set only takes into account builtin props for now, but not id-props, while the corresponding get method seems to take them into account)
The alternative to using pointer-properties for the operator, is to store strings and look up the relevant objects later, but there should be a nicer way...
* Restored quick operators for moving bones between layers and switching visible armature layers. The popup used here (based on the layers template) is not optimal yet - you can click on multiple layer buttons to enable/disable them, but you need to move your mouse outside the area for it to confirm.
* Separate armatures works again. I've tweaked the arguments to ED_object_duplicate() to make this work (besides, the other users of this wouldn't have been affected).
* Added some missing special (transform) operators to the menus + keymaps
Outliner: brought back to near full functioning:
- proper operators, like for open/close items, exec operations
(note: select is still same operator as activate, should
become modal ops later)
- rename works again (ctrl+click)
- proper notifiers for redraws
- select / extend select works again
- editmode in/out works again
- enter key opens/closes again
- right mouse operations work again
Didn't do:
- options for Sequence strips
- signals to change button views on clicks
- error/warning messages
UI:
- added new uiButSetRenameFunc(), which passes on the old name
- added uiButActiveOnly(), which ensures a button gets created in
active state, and gets removed when used. Needed for editing
names in outliner.
Andrea: check outliner.c for uiButActiveOnly(), very easy to use!
Also:
- Added posemode operator, CTRL+TAB tied to it.
* Fix crash loading particle AnimData. This crashed many BBB
files. If you have a .blend file that crashes when loading
it in 2.5, please mail me, I'd like to know.
* Image window zoom ratio did not work correct with py 2.x.
* Other minor fixes for image window RNA.
* Buttons window now remembers the tab that was last clicked
by the user, even if that tab is no longer available due
to context, and then enable the tab again if the context
for it is back.
* Cleaned up buttons space DNA a bit, removing unused vars.
* Armature bone rename outside edit mode did not call right
function yet.
* Armature layers are now editable even if lib linked. This
is useful for proxies. For this purpose a PROP_LIB_EXCEPTION
flag was added. Need to think over proxy / RNA a bit though,
not sure what the requirements are yet.
* Parent to Armature Deform now has options to create vertex
groups, instead of always creating them.
* Clean up File menu, added back recover last session op.
* .blend compress now behaves a bit different, previously
it would only respect the user preference. Now it saves
existing files the same way they are saved, and new files
following the user preference. The save operator has a
Compress toggle in the file browser left panels now.
* Add menu working again, some fixes to make these operators
work outside the 3d view were needed.
* Timeline menu removed, its contents will be moved to the
timeline header menus.
* Game menu can now start game, changed the start game op
to choose another 3d view if none is available.
* Render menu has a few items now.
* Help menu contains a few links again.
- reports can be selected with RMB, Border (bkey) and (de)select all.
- delete reports (X key)
- run operators in the console (R key)
- copy reports (Ctrl+C), can be pasted in the text editor an run with alt+p
Details
- Added "selected_editable_objects" and "selected_editable_bases" to screen_context.c, use the scene layers, this was needed for duplicate to run outside the 3D view.
- RNA_property_as_string converted an array of 1 into "(num)" need a comma so python sees it as a tuple - "(num,)"
- add flag to reports, use for seletion atm.
opens a new world of context bugs :)
* Added Relations panel with layers, pass_index, parent.
* Groups panel now can do add to group/remove from group.
* Parent, parent type, track are now editable.
* Separate constraint add operator for object and bones.
* Objects now support up to 32767 material slots. It's easy to
increase this further, but I prefer not to increase the memory
usage of mesh faces, it seems unlikely that someone would
create 32767 distinct materials?
* Forward compatibility: the only thing you can potentially lose
reading a 2.5 file in 2.4 is object linking (instead of default
data), though usually that will go fine too. Reading files with
> 32 material slots in 2.4 can start giving issues.
* The ob->colbits variable is deprecated by the array ob->matbits
but I didn't remove the ob->colbits updates in very few places
it is set.
* I hope I changed all the relevant things, various places just
hardcoded the number 16 instead of using the MAXMAT define.
* Join Objects operator back. This is using the version from the
animsys2 branch coded by Joshua, which means it now supports
joining of shape keys.
* Fix for crash reading file saved during render.
* Code to start moving 3D view header and panels to python, at
the moment the View menu and one empty panel is in python. The
C header code is wrapped in one template, so parts of that can
be moved over while still keeping things working.
* Fix for mistake in RNA enum commit yesterday, and some warning
fixes.
* Enums can now be dynamically created in the _itemf callback,
using RNA_enum_item(s)_add, RNA_enum_item_end. All places asking
for enum items now need to potentially free the items.
* This callback now also gets context, this was added specifically
for operators. This doesn't fit design well at all, needed to do
some ugly hacks, but can't find a good solution at the moment.
* All enums must have a default list of items too, even with an
_itemf callback, for docs and fallback in case there is no context.
* Used by MESH_OT_merge, MESH_OT_select_similar, TFM_OT_select_orientation.
* Also changes some operator properties that were enums to booleas
(unselected, deselect), to make them consistent with other ops.
* 3D view Object menu works again, many operators missing still
because they are not yet implemented.
* Constraint types now have separator, and fix too much spacing
in the constraints header.
Monthly cleaning round to make it compile warning free.
Mostly it was const stuff (strings, Context), but also
a couple useful fixes, like wrong use of temp pointers.
Only Mathutils callback struct I left alone... design issue.
* 3D view Mesh menu works again, but incomplete.
* Add Properties and Toolbar to 3D View menu.
* Added "specials" menus back, vertex/edge/face and general.
* Various fixes in existing mesh operators, some were not working.
* Add MESH_OT_merge.
* Merge all subdivide ops into MESH_OT_subdivide, subdivide code
changes to make smooth + multi give good results.
* Rename all select inverse ops to *_OT_select_inverse.
* Fix "search for unknown operator" prints at startup, and some
warnings in py code.
* Don't run .pyc files on startup.
* Remove unused image window header C code.
* Rename BIF_transform/retopo.h to ED_transform/retopo.h
for consistency.
* Move MESH_OT_duplicate_add to editmesh_add.c.
* Remove some code from BIF_gl.h which is not needed there
anymore.
* base was referenced before NULL check
* ob wasn't checked for NULL
Still broken: Add Mesh doesn't seem to work in Object Mode.
But now it doesn't crash anymore...
- Scrollers now only disappear for regions with a fixed total view, like
lists, buttons, channels. More or less infinite views keep scrollers to
indicate that you can still pan or zoom further.
- Nodes: put back SHIFT+D "Add duplicate"
(Also fixed duplicate objects menu name... it should be a bit more
descriptive)
* Lattices: properties editable, editmode operators, menus working
again. As a bonus you can now edit u/v/w in editmode.
* Shape Keys: some code cleanup, and added more buttons. The
value/min/max buttons don't work correct yet though.
* Fix issue with uv textures, vertex colors not being visible outside
editmode, and a few other issue. Mesh.edit_mesh is now NULL when
not in editmode.
Test commit; toolbar has 'add operator' menu in mesh editmode.
Nothing stored, freed here...
Also: removed reading .B.blend, since a much better default has
been compiled in now, prevents confusing testers who run 2.5
for the first time. :) Of course .B25.blend still works.
Part one (of probably many :) of Operator review/validation.
Nothing final nor defined, it's reseach :)
- Added tool buttons in "Toolbar" (Tkey). Just four examples
for objectmode, and six for mesh editmode.
(Review in progress is operator internal state vs context, what
do redo exactly, undo vs redo syncing, when op->invoke or not,
etc. This has to be pinned down exactly and frozen asap)
- On undo, clear redo-operator-stack for now (won't work)
- Added call to better detect active/current view3d region.
ED_view3d_context_rv3d(C)
- Fixed some operators that missed correct redo (add-prim etc).
Later more fun!
