- removed {lattice,curve}_modifier functions
- changed render code to use displist for curve rendering
instead of making its own. required adding a bevelSplitFlag
field to DispList. I also fixed the bevel face splitting
which did not work correctly in many situations.
- changed so all curve data creation happens in makeDispListCurveTypes,
includes making bevel list and filling polys
- changed render code to use displist for surface rendering
- removed Curve.orco variable, built as needed now
- removed stupid BLI_setScanFill* functions... why use a function
argument when you can use a global and two functions! Why indeed.
(this fixed crash when reloading a file with filled curves and
toggling editmode)
- bug fix, setting curve width!=1 disabled simple bevel for no
apparent reason
- cleaned up lots and lots of curve/displist code (fun example:
"if(dl->type==DL_INDEX3 || dl->type==DL_INDEX3)"). Hmmm!
- switched almost all lattice calls to go through lattice_deform_verts,
only exception left is particles
- added DBG_show_shared_render_faces function in render, just
helps to visualize which verts are shared while testing (no
user interface).
- renamed some curve bevel buttons and rewrote tooltips to be
more obvious
- made CU_FAST work without dupfontbase hack
Also by the way I wrote down some notes on how curve code
works, nothing spiffy but it is at:
http://wiki.blender.org/bin/view.pl/Blenderdev/CurveNotes
really work at all. Fortunately no one actually *USES* nurbs so
no one noticed. This is bug from NaN days (strubi, I am looking at
you here) which I guess says a lot (or a little) about NURBS usage.
And as usual, the correct code is shorter.
- added do_version copy of ME_OPT_EDGES flag
- fix DerivedMesh.getMinMax implementations to set min & max when
there are no vertices
- mesh boundbox calc was wrong in some cases, messed up HOMEKEY
and localview zooming
The B-Bones!
(where the B can be read as 'block' or 'bezier' or 'b-spline')
- set option on/off in edit buttons, armature panel
- scaling of B-bones only works in editmode, use ALT+S to make bones fatter
or thinner. Also works for constrainted transform
- In pose mode, you now have a buttons panel with per-bone settings too
Here you can find the "segments" button, which allows bones to
interpolate between previous/next bones, including roll.
- Buttons to control interpolation ("In" and "Out" are disabled, doesn't
work satisfying yet
NOTE: this doesn't give deform yet! Main purpose for now is to test if this
drawing method serves to animate/pose armatures well.
Still need to review proper interpolation methods... maybe bezier is too
limited.
still a makeDispList that dispatches to the appropriate one.
makeDispList is on the way out and this makes it easier to track down
exactly which places use makedispList and for what types of objects.
- switch calls to makeDispList to appropriate more specific function (if
the object type is known by caller).
- added mesh_changed function that invalidates cached mesh data (but does
not rebuild, mesh data gets rebuilt on access). Most old calls to
makeDispListMesh use this instead now.
extrema". It now also keeps auto-handles horizontal when the Y coordinate
is exactly identical.
And; made this option default on inserting new curve/keys.
Ipocurves with "Auto" handles now have option to remain horizontal on the
extrema (tops & valleys). Use ALT+H to set this per selected curve.
Note this is a per-curve feature, not per-handle.
If it works satisfying I can check on making this the default new added
curve.
Important notes:
- Full compatibility with old text objects not fully restored
(word spacing will be 0.0, need to set it manually to 1.0), will
either need version upgrade to 238 or a hack. Will check.
- lorem.c (about to be committed) contains BF copyright notice, but as
BF did not exist a few hundred years ago, probably best to remove it :)
- If you notice any cross-platform issues (especially beloved windows),
please report
- A few tiny warnings left, I will fix those issues still.
The rest has been said already - so have fun testing. And please do!
=== Reminder:
=== Documentation at http://blender.instinctive.de/docs/textobject.txt ===
When curve objects have no front/back faces, the bevels were only drawn
for the outer part. Now it also makes interior bevels, so yo can
have a curve become a 'solid' ring easily.
Note: only works when you disable filling option "Front" and "Back".
NOTE: BLI_winstuff.h was meant to be a wrapper around windows.h to handle
undefining various crap that windows.h defines. Platform specific headers
should only have to be included in a few places. This reduces the number
of inclusions of BLI_winstuff.h to 16 which is a much more reasonable
number (than the 144 or whatever it used to be)
different objects shouldn't share flags this way (still sharing of
other mesh flags in renderer... ickity pickity, but I'm not fixing now)
- removed some unnecessary uses of DNA_mesh_types.h
