* #19419: PoseLib rename/remove tools could crash when an invalid
(However, now care is needed when touching that index field, since the warnings can keep piling up)
* Added Browse Poses for PoseLib to the toolbar
* Removing constraints from bones now properly updates. A DAG rebuild is now forced, and the constraint flags are cleared.
* Attempting to improve the situation with Copy Rotation constraint and rotation orders other than xyz. Unforunately, it looks like a different method is required...
* Updating Preview Range settings results in correct updates for Animation Editors
* Compositing nodes now correctly animate when the values were set by IKEY/RMB on suitable node parameters. Beware that these nodes are not relinkable node-trees, hence the standard code not working.
* Ctrl-P to parent objects to bones now works in Pose Mode too. I needed to add a special keymap entry for this, though I thought this would have been better to be automatically inherited/present from Object keymap already?
* Ctrl-P -> Parent to Bone option now works correctly again. 1.5 lines of code missing here...
* Breakdowns tool now shows custom cursor during 'modal' phase so that it's not that confusing what's going on.
their handlers based on notifiers, which is simpler and more
reliable.
This fixes for example editmode or uv edit keymaps not working
when creating a new 3dview or image space.
Note sure what to do with this one, and personally think
we should avoid using macros for this kind of thing:
V_GROW(edges);
source/blender/editors/mesh/loopcut.c:232: warning: value computed is not used
- povray converts curves to meshes on export, (metaballs don't need meshing).
- use 'extend' bool rather then 'seltype' enum for object_select operators for consistency.
- 'center', while Ctrl is held select objects from their center location
- 'enumerate', while Alt is held, give a list of objects under the mouse
- Object selection menu now uses icons with names
- operator object.select_name(name, extend=False)
- keybindings so combinations of Ctrl/Alt/Shift can be used (like in 2.4x)
- logic text input field was using deprecated ID_SCRIPT rather then ID_TXT
details
- added comments to DNA_ID.h ID types
- removed unused ID types Sector and Life
- added uiIconFromID() to get an icon from the object.
- using name for selection is weak but currently there isnt a really good way to do this.
*Cleaned up Transform panel in n-key area. It's now single column so that this view can be nice and slim, while you can still access everything.
This is especially important in edit mode where you cannot change the transform values numerically from the Properties.
Transform properties don't seem to work for Metaball edit yet, so wasn't able to test this
*Removed some lingering tools in curve transform and put them in the toolbar instead.
*Improved alignment in toolbar
*Made Image Properties use regular checkmark toggle buttons
*Added Delete as an alternative to X key, as it was in 2.4x
#19345: can't get out of grayed out pointer field.
#19342: item_pointerR fields can't be cleared with one item.
#19341: fix hanging tooltips when manipulating regions.
#19339: context panel still allowed tabbing, but it has no header.
#19334: editing SSS settings crashed previewrender.
#19330: object mode could not be switched on from the header menu.
* #19338: Crash when using Convert operator
Uninitialised var (basact)
* Spacebar when in 3D-View EditMode for Text gets overridden by Search Menu. I've tried adding a fix there, but it doesn't seem to work. Woraround for now is shift-space for entering text.
* Fixed some compiled warnings in wm_operators.c about naming of var named 'main'
- Vkey was being caught by the vertex paint mode, blocking it for curve edit where it sets the handle type. Now mode keys pass through if they dont apply to the object type.
- set handles had invalid default
* layout.itemR now has icon_only option to show only icon
in e.g. enums buttons, for uv editor header.
* Automatic key shortcuts in menus now show the shortcut even if
operator properties don't match. Not sure this will work well
everywhere, but seems to be working ok for now.
* Open recent now show shorter filenames instead of the whole
file path.
* Tweak object Duplicate menu item.
* Added RNA subtype for layers.
* Shift-click works again.
* uiItemR can now also handle armature/bone layers.
* Also makes Move to Layer popup work as expected.
* Split object_edit.c into multiple files:
object_add.c, object_edit.c, object_hook.c, object_relations.c,
object_select.c, object_transform.c.
* Rename files to have consistent object_ and mball_ prefix:
object_shapekey.c, object_lattice.c, object_vgroup.c, mball_edit.c.
* Added operators:
* vertex group menu and set active
* apply location, rotation, scale, visual transform (location is new)
* make local
* make vertex parent
* move to layer
* convert to curve/mesh (not finished yet)
* Many small fixes for marked issues, but still much code to be cleaned
up here...
- rename "Nurb" to "Spline" in RNA, eg. bpy.data.curves[0].splines[2].type == 'NURBS'
from a user perspective spline is a more generic term while Nurb is misleading when used for beziers and poly lines.
- added curve.active_spline property so the python UI can display the last selected curve.
- set the active spline when entering editmode (uses first selected spline)
- added back Hide Handles as a curve property (removed the global flag), access from the view panel in editmode.
- added hide normal option for curve, normal size access for curve and mesh display.
- changing orderU/V, endpoints, cyclic, bezierU/V now work in editmode and calls update functions.
- entering editmode was crashing with text objects
- curve.switch_direction() crashed (own fault from last commit)
- Tkey for tilt was overridden by Toolbar, made Tilt Ctrl+T.
- OBJECT_OT_mode_set check for compatible modes before running - so curves dont try go into paint mode with V key for eg.
This commit some of the many bugs here (it's still not perfect now, but much better than it was):
* Moving in/out of Object, Edit, and Pose Modes for Armatures should now work smoothly. Operators should work nicely in the appropriate modes now (select linked might be a bit tempermental still, since it uses mouse-position).
* Fixed the 'mysterious' memory leaks when changing modes. These were only caused when using the mode switching menu in the 3D-View.
* Went through bullet-proofing some of the operator calling functions against NULL operator id-name strings.
moved CU_2D to Nurb->flag in do_versions
This made simple type checks confusing to read.
many... if( (nu->type & 7)==CU_BEZIER)
replaced with ... if(nu->type == CU_BEZIER)
made setting rna curve_2d clamp the Z values. still more RNA/UI changes to do.
- added curve attribute use_twist_correction
- added nurb attribute type - NURBS, POLY, BEZIER
- renamed a number of curve attributes with the use_ prefix.
- UI layout adjustments to only show buttons that are needed and reflect internals for nurbs.
... Note that many of the buttons only apply to NURBS, and all the "V" buttons only apply to surfaces, remove when not needed.
- Some big refresh issues with softbody & cloth point cache usage should now be fixed.
- Removed sticky objects from particles (better stuff will come back when I get to updating reactor particles).
- Some initial easy memory efficiency cleanup for ParticleData struct. The ultimate goal is to get particles less memory hungry -> more particles possible in single scene.
- Wrong path timing clamping caused hair particles to seem disappeared when changing between normal<->hair particles.
- "Calculate to current frame" in cache buttons baked instead of the intended function.
- Boids particle data is now a bit better organized.
Make local and make single user are back for ID template.
Internally these calls got unified, id_make_local and
id_copy are now used to do these operations for all types
that support it. Also reveals that for some ID types the
implementation is still missing.
Further, some small changes:
* unlink_text is now in blenkernel.
* copy_group was implemented.
* ID template now has an open operator again.
* fix preview to not change material reference count,
even if temporary it shows up with threaded preview.
* id_unlink unifies unlink for text, object and group.
Notifiers
---------
Various fixes for wrong use of notifiers, and some new notifiers
to make things a bit more clear and consistent, with two notable
changes:
* Geometry changes are now done with NC_GEOM, rather than
NC_OBJECT|ND_GEOM_, so an object does need to be available.
* Space data now use NC_SPACE|ND_SPACE_*, instead of data
notifiers or even NC_WINDOW in some cases. Note that NC_SPACE
should only be used for notifying about changes in space data,
we don't want to go back to allqueue(REDRAW..).
Depsgraph
---------
The dependency graph now has a different flush call:
DAG_object_flush_update(scene, ob, flag)
is replaced by:
DAG_id_flush_update(id, flag)
It still works basically the same, one difference is that it now
also accepts object data (e.g. Mesh), again to avoid requiring an
Object to be available. Other ID types will simply do nothing at
the moment.
Docs
----
I made some guidelines for how/when to do which kinds of updates
and notifiers. I can't specify totally exact how to make these
decisions, but these are basically the guidelines I use. So, new
and updated docs are here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/NotifiersUpdateshttp://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/DataNotifiers
bpy.data, bpy.ops.object etc.
- added basic docs for bpy.props
- omit panel, menu and operator classes (took up too much space and not useful)
- exec cant be used as an operator suffix eg- CONSOLE_OT_exec --> CONSOLE_OT_execute (same for file)
- fixed some crashes when generating docs
Updated docs here

*****
first commit in a long time, and its great to be back!
commited Select Mirror operator for objects
eg. L.sword->R.sword
added to 3dview select menu aswel
the hotkey is shift-ctrl-m (hope its not taken)
Fixed some typos made in previous commit. Hook Modifier should now work correctly again (and also for newly added Hook relationships)
Notes:
* To add a hook, you currently need to perform the following steps
1) add modifier from menu (no operator in EditMode)
2) specify the object (and/or bone to use as the hook target)
3a) in EditMode, select the vertices you wish to be affected by the hook, and press 'Assign'
3b) alternatively, fill in the vertex-group field for the Vertex Group which contains the vertices to be affected
4) press 'Reset' (to make sure hook will behave correctly)
5) optionally, also press 'Recenter' if the hook position isn't right...
* BUG ALERT (Brecht/Ton): it is impossible to clear the vertexgroup/bone fields once you have assigned some value. Doing backspace+enter (or any other variation) will always result in the first item in the search menu being used.
Moved WeightPaint/VertexPaint toggling hotkeys to the same place that the ones for PoseMode/EditMode are defined. This means that the hotkey for toggling PoseMode works again (instead of being overwritten by WeightPaint).
* Disabled multires subdivide button in editmode (again)
SVN weirdness:
I already did this in r22447. Somehow it got changed back -- but I can't find any log of it getting reverted, either in my email or on p.b.o. This is extremely weird!
* Made object mode an enum, shows better in the debugger
* Added a toggle mode to the set object mode operator
* Toggling a mode on and off goes back to the previous mode, not just object mode
* Changed the vertex mode and weight mode shortcuts to call the toggle mode operator
when passing properties=True as argument.
Other changes:
* uiItemR, uiItemFullR, uiItemFullO now accept a flag argument rather
than multiple different "boolean" arguments, but still exposed as
booleans to python.
* Fix RNA to support setting PROP_RNAPTR for return values.
Made Hook Modifier be able to use bone targets. However, I haven't been able to verify that everything will work perfectly, since just creating a new Hook Modifier and assigning targets doesn't set hmd->indexar correctly.
* 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.
* Converted vertex paint to use the new stroke system. Now supports the same smooth stroke and stroke spacing as sculpt mode.
* Refactored the paint cursor a bit, just sculpt for now but other modes soon.
* A couple warning fixes
* cache for low res (deactivating high res for now)
* new way of view3d rendering of smoke (no longer 3 axes) -using 3dtexture now (introduced into gpu/intern)
* introducing LZO and LZMA libs into extern (makefiles missing for now)
* reducing memory usage after simulating for the frame ended (freeing temporary buffers)
* splitting smoke into 2 modifier for the cache-sake (it cannot handle more than 1 cache on the same modifier-index)
* no color on gui anymore
* fixing non-power-of-2 resolutions (hopefully)
* fixing select-deselect of domain drawing bug
* fixing drawobject.c coding style (making Ton happy) ;-)
HINT #1: If scons doesn't work -> cmakefiles are up-to-date, couldn't test scons (but i tried to mantain them, too)
CODERS HINT #1: we really need a way to disable adding all modifiers through "Add Modifiers" dropdown!
WARNING #1: before applying this commit, deactivate your SMOKE DOMAIN in your old files and save them then. You can open them then savely after that.
WARNING #2: File and cache format of smoke can be changed, this is not final!
* Added OBJECT_OT_mode_set for setting the object mode. Takes one property, "mode", which can be any of the OB_MODE_* flags. The available modes are limited based on the active object (e.g. only meshes can have sculptmode, and so forth.)
* Set the icon properties in the object mode enum RNA
TODO:
At this point I think everything is ready to start ripping out the ugly hacks in view3d_header for setting the mode :)
* Pose mode was already object-localized, but moved the flag from object->flag to object->mode, with all the other modes.
* Updated object mode RNA
* Commented out some dubious use of base->flag with the posemode flag. So far as I could see the value was only being set, not read, so a hopefully safe change.
