1. Removed pinning, at least until after trunk
reintegration (it's a usefull feature, but
incomplete).
2. Ripped out the subclassing code I originally
wrote so bmesh would be more usable for modifiers
(I ended up improving CDDM instead).
3. Inlined some of the macros in bmesh.h, still need to
do the macros in bmesh_operator_api.h.
4. Removed the BMESH_ITER_*** macros (except for BMESH_ITER_INDEX).
They were too clunkly to be worth it.
Implemented a new "super knife". Activate with k. Holding CTRL
will allow extended cutting ala old lines mode. Confirm with enter
and escape. You cannot cancel, btw, you can only confirm (and undo
later if you want). Hopefully I'll support undo within the tool soon.
* Supports cutting edges, into faces, etc. You can pretty much do whatever
you want. Will snap to vertices too.
* Note that if you cut into a face, it must be valid topologically when
you press enter to confirm.
* It's pretty and graphical :)
* You can only cut visible geometry.
* UVs/vcols are a little buggy still
Now, thou shalt all cease and desist all lack of motivation for
testing! No longer shall users put off testing until "it's cooler"!
:P
as does only edges and individual faces extrude (individual vert
extrude already did).
Note that I need to port this, after we all figure out how to handle
operators with variable transform follow-ons.
I also implemented the merge->collapse function, which is currently
accessable under ctrl->v, Bmesh Test Operator. I still need to
implement the other merge modes, and properly hook everything into
the merge menu tool, which I plan on doing soon (tomorrow hopefully).
The cool thing about the collapse tool, is not only does it handle (all)
UV layers, it handles vcols as well. To do this, I had to add a few math
functions to the customdata API, which seem to be working well.
BMO_ITER macros to make defining iterator
loops easier. Moved some files around.
And also made the editmesh conversion functions
tesselate ngons to triangle fans, since it's
more stable for conversion, and editmeshes are
never displayed to the user anyway. And ported
akey to bmesh.
Next up I plan on adding face iterators to DerivedMesh,
since that's the last major chunk of major refactoring
left, I think, except perhaps the uv editor (at the
moment it's probably close to working, but it's still
converting to editmeshes for everything, which is very
bad).
Used it to implement the dissolve faces operation (previous
incarnation was just a debugging hack). The code works by
creating one giant new face per region of faces.
The dissolve verts (xkey->collapse, heh need to rename it)
operator now invokes dissolve faces on the faces around verts.
This is less error-prone then a pure topological/euler based
solution.
