modifiers now
This makes it harder for users to unwittingly create multiple deform modifiers
by parenting and unparenting a number of times, with the net result being that
"Clear Parent" is now the true inverse operation of "Make Parent".
add an option to apply the transform of an object when re-parenting.
the reason for this is you dont always want to apply transform because...
- your object may be driven/animated and the transformation will be lost.
- with negative scales and rotation it can end up giving odd/not-useful results.
Call normals update and re-tesselate the BMesh before generating
derived mesh for vertex parent. this is needed for proper display
of mesh in edit mode.
Tried to use EDBM_update_generic, but it gave artifacts due to it
doesn't update normals. usually it's not a problem, because it's used
at the end of operator and all needed data is handles by depsgraph.
It doesn't work for vertex parent because derived mesh is being
created here outside of generic object update, so one extra manual
step seems to be needed here.
This auto/heat vgroup creation seems to be fuzzy/unstable (each run gives a slightly different result). I have not the competences (nor time) to investigate that laplacian stuff, so for now just adding an option when parenting to an armature with envelope/heat, to mirror weights along the X axis (as it is done by default when doing it from the Weight Paint mode).
Colors used by Bone Groups are now copied/assigned to Action Groups too when
they're created now. This completes the work started in r.46960 to restore this
functionality from 2.48.
Currently, there is no control over when/whether these colors are copied over
(although it is possible to disable the display of these colors for relevant
animation editors if desired). Originally I was going to make this a more
generic Keying Sets feature, though that turned out to be a bit too complex to
manage.
Other notes:
* Split out the code for copying colors to a common library function
OUTLINER_OT_parent_drop
* use scene of child instead of active scene
* poll to check if parent and child are in same scene
OUTLINER_OT_parent_clear
* get scene from child instead of only working on active scene
* poll to check if no parent
OUTLINER_OT_scene_drop && OBJECT_OT_make_links_scene
* memory leak on error
* would only link some objects on error
- Make sure functions are named in way BKE_<object>_<action> (same way as RNA callbacks)
- Make functions which are used by mball.c only static and remove their prototypes
from public header file.
Further cleanup is coming.
--debug
--debug-ffmpeg
--debug-python
--debug-events
--debug-wm
This makes debug output easier to read - event debug prints would flood output too much before.
For convenience:
--debug-all turns all debug flags on (works as --debug did before).
also removed some redundant whitespace in debug prints and prefix some prints with __func__ to give some context.
not pick the right object. This operator had two properties "object" and
"type", but the latter was used while the former had the right description.
Now changed it to have only an "object" property, so that the above code works.
In fact, error was much deeper and DND parenting in outliner used to parent all selected
objects to drop target, not just currently dragging object.
This was caused by code sharing between Parent Set operator and this DND operator which
was iterating all selected objects in scene and was setting parent to it.
Solved issue by separating actual parenting code which makes specified object be parented
to specified parent and moved iterating to Parent Set exec callback.
Now both of discovered issues (unneeded loop error and parenting all selected objects)
are solved, but more extensive testing of this changes are welcome.
These changes are to make the bmesh api more consistent and easier to learn, grouping similar functions which is convenient for autocomplete.
This uses similar convention to RNA.
* use face/loop/edge/vert as a prefix for functions.
* use 'elem' as a prefix too for functions that can take any type with a BMHeader.
* changed from camel case to underscore separated (like RNA).
