Text drawing in 3D window fixed, using BLF default font (yes, nice AA'ed
fonts too :)
Solved it by gathering all strings that needs to be drawn for an object,
and then draw in end of object drawing, in pixelspace. Also cleaned up
some of the code for projecting 3d coords, much nicer now (mat stored in
region-view3d)
* Buttons are now created first, and after that the layout is computed.
This means the layout engine now works at button level, and makes it
easier to write templates. Otherwise you had to store all info and
create the buttons later.
* Added interface_templates.c as a separate file to put templates in.
These can contain regular buttons, and can be put in a Free layout,
which means you can specify manual coordinates, but still get nested
correct inside other layouts.
* API was changed to allow better nesting. Previously items were added
in the last added layout specifier, i.e. one level up in the layout
hierarchy. This doesn't work well in always, so now when creating things
like rows or columns it always returns a layout which you have to add
the items in. All py scripts were updated to follow this.
* Computing the layout now goes in two passes, first estimating the
required width/height of all nested layouts, and then in the second
pass using the results of that to decide on the actual locations.
* Enum and array buttons now follow the direction of the layout, i.e.
they are vertical or horizontal depending if they are in a column or row.
* Color properties now get a color picker, and only get the additional
RGB sliders with Expand=True.
* File/directory string properties now get a button next to them for
opening the file browse, though this is not implemented yet.
* Layout items can now be aligned, set align=True when creating a column,
row, etc.
* Buttons now get a minimum width of one icon (avoids squashing icon
buttons).
* Moved some more space variables into Style.
1) Remove WITH_FREETYPE2 from code, so now blender always need freetype2
2) Remove the old bmfont
3) Remove ftfont and bFTGL library
4) Implement a new BLF_draw_default function for place that still need/use
the old BMF api.
I try to update both, scons and cmake, but I only can test with make, so
hope all work fine.
MSVC is broken, but I don't have Windows, things to search and fix are
any reference to WITH_FREETYPE2, FTGL and BMFONT (take in care that
blenkernel also have a BKE_bmfont.h, this don't have anything to do with bmfont).
Always have to link/include the freetype2 library
Remove any reference to libbmfont
Remove any reference to libftfont
Remove any reference to libbftgl (or libbFTGL)
* Headers and menus can now be created in python.
* Replaced the uiMenuItem functions to create menus with equivalent
uiItem functions using a layout, removing duplicated code.
* More uiItem functions are now exposed to python.
* The text editor header, panels and one of its menus are now created
in space_text.py.
* Buttons window data context icon new changes depending on active
object.
Issues
* Icons are not wrapped yet, hardcoded ints at the moment.
* The ID browse template is unfinished.
EditMesh *EM_GetEditMesh(Mesh *me);
void EM_EndEditMesh(Mesh *me, EditMesh *em);
as discussed on the mailling list, this is to facilitate migration to bmesh.
next step is to merge this this to the bmesh branch. this was done in the 2.5
branch to prevent too great a divergance.
also, made makesdna/makesrna work on cygwin/msvc2008/scons.
- use select as a suffix eg UV_OT_loop_select -> UV_OT_select_loop
- Each select all operator was using slightly different wording...
select_all, deselect_all, de_select_all, select_de_select_all -> select_all_toggle
- selection -> select
- POSE_OT_select_connected -> POSE_OT_select_linked to match other operators
- NODE_OT_delete_selection -> NODE_OT_delete since its not used in other operators
- ANIM_OT_previewrange_define -> ANIM_OT_previewrange_set to match other operators
- NODE_OT_fit_all -> NODE_OT_view_all to match other operators
- View2D_OT_* -> VIEW2D_OT_* to match VIEW3D
- View2D_OT_view_downscroll -> VIEW2D_OT_scroll_down more logical
- removed MARKER_OT_mouseselect_extend and made extend a boolean property of MARKER_OT_mouseselect
- MARKER_OT_mouseselect -> MARKER_OT_select
- GROUP_OT_group_remove -> GROUP_OT_objects_remove more logical since its removing objects from groups
- MESH_OT_removedoublesflag -> MESH_OT_remove_doubles
- redundant words MESH_OT_split_mesh -> MESH_OT_split, OBJECT_OT_object_delete -> OBJECT_OT_delete
renamed selection operator properties
extend_select -> extend
column_select -> column
select_children_only -> children_only
... Since these are all in the context of selection operators there is no need for the extra 'select' in the property name.
Updated docs
http://www.graphicall.org/ftp/ideasman42/html/bpyoperator-module.html
like so:
[opname] [slotname]=%[format code]
Before it was relying on the input format codes being in the same proper
order as the slots, which seemed like a potential maintainance nightmare to
me. Also the flags for creating buffers from bmop flags or header flags,
now support additional modifiers for combining vert/edge/face inputs.
E.g. %hfvef would accept all geometry with a header flag, and
%fef would accept edges and faces with a certain bmop flag set.
Example from the UI code:
if (!EDBM_CallOpf(em, op, "del geom=%hf context=%d", BM_SELECT, DEL_ONLYFACES))
return OPERATOR_CANCELLED;
(remember EDBM_CallOpf is the UI wrapper for this that does conversion,
error reporting, etc).
On todo is cleaning up/splitting bmesh_operators.h,
since it's kindof a mesh right now. I'm thinking of adding the slot
names in comments next to the slot ids, but I definitely would have to
clean up bmesh_operators.h first, or it'd just be too chaotic for me.
BTW, the operator API should now have enough meta info to wrap with
a scripting language, not that it matters since that's not happening till
much much later.
Also hopefully corrected some SConscripts, fix mostly provided by Elia Sarti,
though I also copied some SConscripts from 2.5 (not sure if doing
so was especially helpful).
Finally, I refactored a few places to use the new operator calling api,
as an example of how this is beneficial.
code, and also because calling operators was such a pain. The basic form of the format
is "opname %[code]", where each % matches to an argument.
The codes are fairly simple:
d - int
i - int
f - float
h[v/e/f] - all verts/edges/faces with a certain header flag.
f[v/e/f] - all verts/edges/faces with a certain flag.
For example:
EDBM_CallOpf(em, op, "dissolveverts %hv", BM_SELECT)
will call the dissolve verts operator.
The relevent functions are:
//calls a bmesh operator, doing necassary conversions and error reporting.
int EDBM_CallOpf(EditMesh *em, struct wmOperator *op, char *fmt, ...);
//execute an operator
int BMO_CallOpf(BMesh *bm, char *fmt, ...);
//initializes but doesn't execute an op.
int BMO_InitOpf(BMesh *bm, BMOperator *op, char *fmt, ...);
//vlist version of above.
int BMO_VInitOpf(BMesh *bm, BMOperator *op, char *fmt, va_list vlist);
Note this system is dependant on getting the slot codes from the argument
order. I'd like to make it better, possibly pass in slot names, but that'd
mean actually giving the slots names (which I can do, but wanted to discuss with
Briggs and others what I have now first).
- Mesh Rip back (Vkey). For those who keep wondering how
it works: just put mouse cursor somewhere close to the
selection, press V and mouse mouse away from it. Feels
like real rip!
- Made extrude sorta work, no menu/options yet though.
But it does transform!
- Added an short event->mval[2] with region coords,
easier coding for the guys :)
- Fill operator standard delivers 'beauty' now
Assorted smaller fixes:
- Fix: modal keymaps for editmode in view3d were not set again
when you copy areas or go fullscreen.
- Improved "redo last op" (F6) to search back in history for
a redoable operator. Operator also used wrong pupmenu type.
- On creating new FCurve editor, the channel rainbow colors are
set correct.
- EditMesh: fixed code for Spin/Screw, correct props, init and
error reporting. (Spin hotkey ALT+R temporary)
- recompiled all to check for uninitialized variable warnings.
(compile flag should be -O for this). Fixed some proto's.
edges/faces,extrudeflag_edgess, not the entire extrude system) with
a bmesh version. This stress-tested the operator api, and I had to
code some new stuff,including:
* An api to iterate over Mapping slots and array slots. It's modeled
after the normal iterator api.
* The ability to copy mapping slots.
* More mapping functions.
* In addition to being able to flag elements in a buffer,
you can now unflag them (much clearer then passing in ~flag
I think).
The extrude edge/faces code has multiple layers. At the top
level is a funtion in editmesh_lib.c, which takes care of selection,
handles mirror modifiers, etc. It calls the extrude operator, which
in turns calls split, which calls dupe/del. Note that split needed
a slot to exclude things from being deleting (e.g. when extruding
a single isolated face).
The basic idea (reflected in original design of split/dupe/del by Briggs)
is to use the split function to do the heavy work of extrude. split spits
out new geometry and mappings from boundary edges, for extrude (it should
also spit out other mappings, but that's for later).
Briggs: you may want to look over this, hopefully I didn't do anything
too evil.
I probably should spend some time going over the 2.5 mesh operators and
cleaning them up, splitting ones that need splitting, etc, and in general
getting them to work properly.
Adjusted ranges for subdivide operators (Mesh + Armature).
* The Mesh one was causing lockups as its range started from 0. Now it starts from 1.
* Tweaked the soft-limits for subdivide operators to be easier to use (1-10 instead of 0-100)
* Changed uiPupMenuOperator usage to uiPupMenuBegin/End (simpler,
no need to build a string). Also made transform orientation and
subdiv type enums instead of ints for this.
* Added an icon argument to many of the uiMenu calls, and added a
uiMenuItemIntO.
* Move auto rna button creation out of outliner code, now is
uiDefAutoButR for individual buttons and uiDefAutoButsRNA for a
whole block.
* Implemented uiPupBlock(O). Pressing F6 gives a menu with the
properties of the last operator to test. I tried to make a redo
last operator out of this but couldn't get the context correct
for the operator to repeat in. Further the popup block also has
some issues getting closed while editing buttons.
* Fix uiAfterFunc memory leak on Ctrl+Q quit.
* Fix handling of RNA number button dragging and sliding for RNA
buttons with range -inf/inf.
Rather then having a hard coded popup menu with events that call other operators exec functions, operator names are given to the toolbox where it displays the operator name and shortcut.
This means the real operator is registered rather then the one that called it.
Im not sure about the location for the operator though, at the moment its called VIEW3D_OT_editmesh_face_toolbox() in view3d_header.c since the image editor toolbox is in the header file too.
In a way it makes sense because this menu should eventually be in the header.
- Change shortcut to Ctrl+F as it is in 2.4x
- Added a number of operators that were not being registered - MESH_OT_fill_mesh, beauty_fill, convert_quads_to_tris, convert_tris_to_quads, edge_flip, mesh_set_smooth_faces, mesh_set_solid_faces
- Renamed redundant MESH_OT_mesh_set_smooth_faces() to MESH_OT_faces_shade_smooth(), same for solid.
- Renamed MESH_OT_mesh_selection_mode_menu to MESH_OT_mesh_selection_type since the operator doesnt have to be accessed from a menu.
Shaul, you might want to look over this, using enums means WM_menu_invoke can be used instead of writing an invoke function for each operator.
Added error messages to WM_menu_invoke if no enum "type" property is found.
Big commit, but mainly adminstration.
- Enabled ot->flag OPTYPE_UNDO to work.
- Removed all redundant ED_undo_pushes, but I'd
recommend everyone to check it while testing. :)
- Added view manipulations as OPTYPE_REGISTER,
although this will flood the redo stack a bit...
Nevertheless; for a "redo last action" panel we
can simply check if both flags are set for redo.
- Bugfix in editmode undo: selectmode was cleared,
so you couldn't select after undo
- Bugfix in mixing tweaks and keymaps... solution
works but is weak, need to think over a while.
Edit Mesh:
- Added back "Edge Shortest Path select"
It now also does regular selection, more fun!
It's mapped to CTRL+click now, and makes or clears selections
between current and previously activated edge.
Seam/Sharp/etc marking is a toolsetting mode still. These
options cannot become properties easily, because the tool
uses the properties of selected edge to clear...
- Removed a whole bunch of G.f flags, related to mesh drawing.
It's all now local in me->drawflags. Here's the list of
removed old globals:
G_DRAWEDGES
G_DRAWFACES
G_DRAWNORMALS
G_DRAW_VNORMALS
G_ALLEDGES
G_HIDDENEDGES
G_DRAWCREASES
G_DRAWSEAMS
G_DRAWSHARP
G_DRAWBWEIGHTS
G_DRAW_EDGELEN
G_DRAW_FACEAREA
G_DRAW_EDGEANG
* Cleaned up UI_interface.h a bit, and added some comments to
organize things a bit and indicate what should be used when.
* uiMenu* functions can now be used to create menus for headers
too, this is done with a uiDefMenuBut, which takes a pointer
to a uiMenuCreateFunc, that will then call uiMenu* functions.
* Renamed uiMenuBegin/End to uiPupMenuBegin/End, as these are
specific to making popup menus. Will convert the other
conformation popup menu functions to use this too so we can
remove some code.
* Extended uiMenu functions, now there is is also:
BooleanO, FloatO, BooleanR, EnumR, LevelEnumR, Separator.
* Converted image window headers to use uiMenu functions, simplifies
menu code further here. Did not remove the uiDefMenu functions as
they are used in sequencer/view3d in some places now (will fix).
* Also tried to simplify and fix bounds computation a bit better
for popup menus. It tried to find out in advance what the size
of the menu was but this is difficult with keymap strings in
there, now uiPopupBoundsBlock can figure this out afterwards and
ensure the popup is within the window bounds. Will convert some
other functions to use this too.
- Made WM_cursor_wait() work without context or pointers,
like old waitcursor(). Only use when operations entirely
block UI. It will set waitcursor for all open windows.
- Cleanup in mesh tools, removing old cruft, and prepare
for more goodies for shul to work on!
