At the moment it's using a hardcoded gray color that conflicts with
themes using gray for the header text. Instead use a slightly brighter
background color to make it stand, yet still use a theme setting.
- Use per context menu lists to support menu editing.
- Support for different kinds of menu items since this may be needed
in the future. Only use operator types for now.
BLF' blf_font_width_to_strlen() could easily generate strings with up to
nearly two pixels length over requested limit!
Note that the fiddling between floats and ints values make things really
confusing here... :/
There is still a few limit cases where, even though computed str length
is now always below reauested limit, we still get first letter
disappearing, no idea why currently.
block and layout could be NULL and checking this everywhere
wasn't practical.
Instead of lazy initializing, add UI_popup_menu_end_or_cancel
which cancels empty popup menus.
In the outliner there are now icons for it, Ctrl+Click isolates a
single collections.
In the 3D view, Ctrl+H key opens a menu that is more or less the
equivalent of the old layer buttons in the header. Regular Click isolates
the collection, Shift+Click toggle the collection visibility. Pressing
number keys and letters works in this menu, which can help for quickly
selecting a specific collection.
Shortcuts for quick switching by just pressing 1/2/3/.. keys are available
again. The order can be confusing with nested collections, but that seems
unavoidable. The first numbers control the top level collections, and then
sub collections if numbers are left.
Remaining design issues:
* The 3D view menu needs to be improved: support for sub collections,
staying open on shift+click, access from the 3D view header somewhere,
shortcut key display.
* Currently collection hiding just controls per-object hiding, we plan
to separate this state still so alt+H doesn't affect collection hiding.
H hides selected objects, Shift+H hides unselected objects, and Alt+H
reveals hidden objects.
This hiding state is distinct from restrict viewport and render, and
meant for temporarily hiding objects without affecting more persistent
collection hiding.
Object hiding is per view-layer, same as selection. It affects the
viewport and any preview renders in there, but not final renders.
In the outliner, different icons are now used for temporary hiding, and
restrict viewport and render. Hidden objects are greyed out.
Remaining design issues:
* For lamps we probably still want to keep their effect on the scene,
currently they are fully disabled by hiding. Arguably mesh lights or
even objects being reflected or casting shadows are not that different
but perhaps the special lamp exception from local view should remain.
* We need a feature still to disabled this hiding for specific viewports,
for render or animation preview where you want to see the entire scene
while working in another view.
* We need a new icon for restrict viewport, for now it uses a grid similar
to the 2.4 icon.
* Hiding objects does not preserve selection state as it did in 2.7,
it's probably convenient to support this again?
Happened when deleting many studiolights at the same time when the
previews were still beging calculated in the background.
Added a free function callback that is filled when the preview is being
generated. This free function will then kill the preview job
This patch also removes icons that are not valid anymore so the user
cannot accidentally render an icon where the studiolight is invalid.
In the end we should use a add/remove function in the studiolight as
currently icons are recalculated too much.
This is a temp fix for a better system.
Currently the studiolights can be referenced by a WM_job and being freed
via the API. This can happen when removing a studiolight via the
interface.
As the studiolight has no relation with the job, it is hard to detect if
it is still being used. I tried with a Mutex and a Thread Queue but they
were failing.
So the current temp fix is to keep the studiolights in memory until you
close blender. This Must be fixed ASAP! I added this fix so normal cases
can workish.
By default users want AA in the viewport. For slower systems you want to
be able to turn it off. As in the future we would also like to support
TAA in the viewport we introduced it as a Max Viewport AA settings.
Also removed the drawoption to enable/disable AA per viewport
When rendering the AA is always turned on.
