* Now has documentation links and recent files.
* Click on image or outside splash to make it go away.
* Still has old image, new one will be committed later.
only implimented min/max precision & step.
at the moment there is no way to edit these other then via python
example of setting UI limits...
>>> C.object['foo'] = 0.5
>>> C.object['_RNA_UI'] = {'foo': {'step': 0.5, 'soft_max': 10.0, 'soft_min': 0.0, 'precision': 2, 'description': 'Some setting'}}
Also fixed typo's: precission -> precision
* Convert all code to use new functions.
* Branch maintainers may want to skip this commit, and run this
conversion script instead, if they use a lot of math functions
in new code:
http://www.pasteall.org/9052/python
Keymaps are now saveable and configurable from the user preferences, note
that editing one item in a keymap means the whole keymap is now defined by
the user and will not be updated by Blender, an option for syncing might be
added later. The outliner interface is still there, but I will probably
remove it.
There's actually 3 levels now:
* Default builtin key configuration.
* Key configuration loaded from .py file, for configs like Blender 2.4x
or other 3D applications.
* Keymaps edited by the user and saved in .B.blend. These can be saved
to .py files as well to make creating distributable configurations
easier.
Also, user preferences sections were reorganized a bit, now there is:
Interface, Editing, Input, Files and System.
Implementation notes:
* wmKeyConfig was added which represents a key configuration containing
keymaps.
* wmKeymapItem was renamed to wmKeyMapItem for consistency with wmKeyMap.
* Modal maps are not wrapped yet.
* User preferences DNA file reading did not support newdataadr() yet,
added this now for reading keymaps.
* Key configuration related settings are now RNA wrapped.
* is_property_set and is_property_hidden python methods were added.
* Fix problem with curve mapping / color ramps not updating
things like previews propertly. Now it uses the RNA update
of the pointer from the material/texture/.. so each of those
can define their own update, but still share the RNA struct.
* Code for these templates is now in interface_templates.c
* Fix exception for "axis" property, now it always shows normal
widget with the PROP_DIRECTION subtype.
* Remove context from uiBlockLayoutResolve, no longer needed.
#19302: the spin operator did not redo correct when changing properties.
Actually the problem was somewhere else, the search menu always did an
unnecessary undo push, which conflicted with an operator undo push with
the same name. Only in the case of "Spin" was this noticed, because it's
name is so short and you actually type it completely.
#19328: swapping areas could crash when dragging mouse outside the window.
Attempted fix for #19331, #19335 as well, where backspace and some other
keys give square characters instead of working as expected. Couldn't
reproducable here, so please test.
Example code: http://www.pasteall.org/7332/c.
New API functions: http://www.pasteall.org/7330/c.
Maximum number of dimensions is currently limited to 3, but can be increased arbitrarily if needed.
What this means for ID property access:
* MeshFace.verts - dynamic array, size 3 or 4 depending on MFace.v4
* MeshTextureFace.uv - dynamic, 2-dimensional array, size depends on MFace.v4
* Object.matrix - 2-dimensional array
What this means for functions:
* more intuitive API possibility, for example:
Mesh.add_vertices([(x, y, z), (x, y, z), ...])
Mesh.add_faces([(1, 2, 3), (4, 5, 6), ...])
Python part is not complete yet, e.g. it is possible to:
MeshFace.verts = (1, 2, 3) # even if Mesh.verts is (1, 2, 3, 4) and vice-versa
MeshTextureFace.uv = [(0.0, 0.0)] * 4 # only if a corresponding MFace is a quad
but the following won't work:
MeshTextureFace.uv[3] = (0.0, 0.0) # setting uv[3] modifies MTFace.uv[1][0] instead of MTFace.uv[3]
* 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.
- use the scene context for the unit settings since there isn't a better place for it currently.
- added 'chain' to imperial units
- set more rna props to be distances and angles.
long/short units...
day,d, hour,hr,h, minute,min,m, second,sec,s, millisecond,ms, microsecond,us
Also may fix some bugs that were reported.
Note, to convert fps to time evil_C needs to be used to get the scene.
- currently only distances work.
- user preferences, edit section to set the units and scale.
- option to display pairs (nicer for imperial display?)
- support for evaluating multiple comma separated values eg: 2',11" ..or.. 5ft, 4mil
- comma separated expressions/values accumulate 1+1,2**3,4cm/3
- attempted fast conversion from a value to a string so button drawing isn't too slow.
* imperial long/short *
- mile, mi
- yard, yd
- foot, '
- inch, "
- thou, mil
* metric long/short *
kilometer, km
meter, m
centimeter, cm
millimeter, mm
micrometer, um
nanometer, nm
picometer, pm
* Disable shaded mode for now, it cause too many crashes combined
with preview render, will be fixed properly later.
* Make 3d view toolbar region a bit wider. Ideally this would not
be needed, but the sculpt/paint buttons just don't fit otherwise.
* Revert change to icon/text spacing in buttons, it breaks text
editing and clipping. Will properly fix this later so changing
the spacing can be done centrally.
* Fix for grease pencil simplify stroke python error. Now button
is hidden (as in 2.4), but still available through outliner.
* Fix for memory leak in UI code, when using ctrl+Q menu.
* Fix submenu > icon being drawn on some buttons where it was not
needed.
Note...
- Python3.1 you don't need to add the .0 for divisions anymore (was esp annoying for button eval)
- Simple dimension input, imperial mi/yd/ft/in, metric km/m/cm/mm, Later could display these values and have a pref for scene scale, atm it assumes 1BU == 1m.
* Text editing in buttons now hides the label, to give more space.
* Tweak slider buttons text clipping, happened a bit too early.
* Move editing text closer to the left, because the < > buttons
are not visible then anyway.
First step towards keymap editor!
Before getting too excited:
- doesn't save yet
- no rna properties can be defined
- no insert/remove keymap options yet
- no option yet to set 'key press/release'
But what does work;
- Keymap list is in outliner, new category
(Keymaps are listed in order as being created now)
- enable/disable a keymap entry: click on dot icon
- it displays python api names for ops
- browse new operator for keymap (menu button)
- set keymap to use other keys, mouse or tweak events
- four modifier key options
I first intent to test it all well, there are still
quite some modal map conflicts (like border select) and
there's problems assigning items to tweaks
Another issue is that a visual editor for keymaps might be
quite hard to use... the amount of data and options is just not
so fun for a buttons menu. There are ways to improve this though.
Maybe do this via a script?
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.
* List template visual changes. Items now look different,
and it expands to size 5 as more items are added.
* Added LISTROW and LISTBOX elements. The former is like
a typical ROW button, but looks diffrent. The latter
looks like a BOUNDBOX, and has no extra features yet.
* Fix some glColor3ubv warnings with casting, did not find
a nicer way.
* Text window font size now supports full range 8-32, instead of
just 12 and 15. I added BLF_fixed_width to get the character
width of a fixed size font.
* Buttons do undo push on change again.
* Animated/Keyframe/Driver colors are now themable, with blend
value to blend with original color. Set this to 0.5 now to
give colors less constrast.
* Fix tooltip popping up with RMB menu open, and missing redraw.
* Autokeyframe now works for buttons.
* Driver expressions can be edited in place in a button now.
(still some refresh issues).
* Also made python driver default for the Add Driver function
in the RMB button. This way you don't have to open a Graph
editor if you just want to type an expression. Also, the
default expression then is the current value.
* Tooltips now show some extra info, not sure what is good to
have, but currently I added:
* Shortcut key for operator buttons.
* Python struct & property name for RNA buttons.
* Expression for driven values.
* Value for text/search/pointer buttons.
* 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.
* Context panel now draws without header, with arrows, no scene name.
* Softbody vertex group search popup.
* Improve names for autogenerated shortcut keys in menus.
* Make most Select menus in the 3D view header work.
* Fix armature border select selection syncing.
* Add POSE_OT_select_constraint_target,
MESH_OT_select_by_number_vertices, MESH_OT_select_vertex_path.
* Merge mesh select similar into one operator.
* Don't give MESH_OT_select_random Space hotkey.
* Add DAG_object_flush_update to many mesh edit tools, not calling this
will crash with modifiers.
* RNA_def_enum_funcs for dynamic enums in operators, but not very useful
without context yet.
* Fix refresh issue with image window header + editmode.
* Fix drawing of shadow mesh for image painting.
* Remove deprecated uiDefMenuButO and uiDefMenuSep functions.
* Remove keyval.c, code is in wm_keymap.c already.
* Rename WM_operator_redo to WM_operator_props_popup.
RNA
* Added the relevant active_*_index properties, with proper
get/set/range, updates and notifiers.
* Context.tool_settings.
* ToolSettings.vertex_group_weight.
Operators
* MESH_OT_uv_texture_add/remove
* MESH_OT_vertex_color_add/remove
* MESH_OT_sticky_add/remove
* OBJECT_OT_vertex_group_add/remove/assign/remove_from/
select/deselect/copy/copy_to_linked
* OBJECT_OT_shape_key_add/remove
UI
* Some updates and cleanups in list template code.
Known issue: when going in & out of editmode, uv textures and vertex
colors dissappear. I thought me->edit_mesh would be NULL when not in
edit mode but it is not?
Search Menu: added feature that on opening, it shows the
current ID block, and selects it. Same can be used for other
searches, just pass on pointer to active item for the search
callback.
Also fixed arrow triangle draw for search.
* Search popup + autocomplete for bones, vertex groups, etc. This
is done with layout.item_pointerR, specifying an RNA collection to
take the items from. Used by constraints and modifiers.
* Some tests with the List template, ignore those for now..
check Save Image or Export PLY operator for example.
Also these code changes:
* Added some RNA collection iterator macros to simplify code.
* Fix bpy.props.BoolProperty not working correct.
* Merge uiDefAutoButsRNA/uiDefAutoButsRNA_single into one.
* RNA_struct_name_get_alloc function to get the name from a
pointer, instead of having to deal with name property.
* CTX_data_pointer_get_type to get data from context with
a check for the RNA type.
Medium sized Color Picker; consisting of number sliders, row buttons to
select rgb/hsv/hex, HS circle and V slider. It opens persistant, like
old picker.
This one opens default, other two can be accessed with ALT or SHIFT click.
On todo;
- eyedropper tool back
- method for click-drag to make mini picker appear
Note for UI coders (brecht :), added a UI_HIDDEN flag in buttons, to
support switching buttons in menus. Hidden buttons are not activated nor
drawn.
* Make Directional Order menus the default again.
* Scale up contents panels that do not use layout system.
* Fix for enum size and uncesseray colon in some cases.
* For item_menu_enumO, show icons if specified in RNA in
the menu (e.g. in the add modifier menu if there were
icons specified).
Logic editing back!
Test screenie:
http://download.blender.org/institute/rt9.jpg
I gave the buttons a bit more width, added nicer linkline draw.
Not working yet:
- theme colors for sensor/actuator types (was old button colors)
- moving sensors up/down (used bad pupmenu... better is icons like
used for modifiers)
- Linkline mouse-over select. Currently deleting a link goes by
drawing the same line again.
Needs to be fully tested for functionality too, leave that to the GE
department. :)
I noted there's bad button hacking with reading button values,
like check_state_mask(). uiBut structure was not meant to be exported
outside of interface module.
