border select. There was a fix before bmesh where it would require exactly two
vertices to be selected, but this was not ported over, and it also wasn't quite
correct.
This case should also work: click on two vertices, selected the path between
them, and then click on a 3rd vertex and select path, to extend the path further
from the 2nd to the 3rd vertex.
Now both use cases should work.
shape instead of just the difference/deltas applied by the source shape
Apparently this was a regression from that crept in during the BMesh merge. I've
just restored the pre-BMesh method, adapted for the BMesh style.
Also, removed a somewhat superfluous (?) copy at the end of each step (from co
back to sco). It didn't seem to be serving any purpose (i.e. we're not trying to
modify the source shape at all).
This commit adds "shift" and numtype to both Bevel and Inset mesh operators.
It also gets rid of the magicnumber used in NumInput to str operation (currently, 20 chars per element, now defined as NUM_STR_REP_LEN in ED_numinput.h).
This commit adds some first building blocks for the two operators to work modally based on mouse input. To make their function easier, two hotkeys are introduced, Ctrl+B for bevel and I for inset.
TODO:
After discussion with Campbell, we would like to add scale-style line indicators for the operators. This is already done for transform operators but a new interface for mesh operations may have to be written using pieces from that code since, strictly speaking bevel and inset are not exactly "transform" operators.
Also, a better input method for inset is needed and more options exposed. The method implemented right now uses mouse move for thickness and ctrl-mouse move for depth. These are calculated using the distance of the selection center in screen space and the mouse position. While that may work and prevents abrupt changes in values when switching from thickness tweak mode to depth tweak mode, it limits the magnitude of values that can be put into the tool especially in small or large scale.
Alternatives until a better method is written include:
* use relative offset (works but may give strange results)
* tweak manually after the operation.
Added four new functions as shortcuts to creating GHashes that use the
standard ptr/str/int/pair hash and compare functions.
GHash *BLI_ghash_ptr_new(const char *info);
GHash *BLI_ghash_str_new(const char *info);
GHash *BLI_ghash_int_new(const char *info);
GHash *BLI_ghash_pair_new(const char *info);
Replaced almost all occurrences of BLI_ghash_new() with one of the
above functions.
Now only one operator. Same options for vertices, edges and faces (so adds edges sorting, and some options to vertices sorting).
Face sorting should behave as previously. However, XSortVerts won’t pack anymore selected vertices at the begining of the vert array (as it used to), if you want such behavior you’ll have to first run SortElements with Selected action.
Also added bug ref I forgot in r46354 (armature.c).
this is in fact 2 bugs.
- unselected edges between 2 faces that were joined didnt get removed.
- in face mode, edges and verts at the boundary of the selection would get incorrectly dissolved.
also quiet float/double promotion warning.
- makes wireframe from faces.
- options similar to inset (even offset, relative scale)
- copies face settings and loops (uvs, vcolors)
- optionally replaces the existing geometry.
