details
- uses redo stack to get recent settings from.
- adds a flag to IDProperties so RNA_property_is_set() can return false even if the property is exists.
- PROP_SKIP_SAVE option skips these settings from getting reset (as with presets).
Special notifiers used for scene deletion which lead to undo pushes
after SCENE_OT_delete operator happening with scene still present in
the mainfile. That was a reason why operator redo used to restore
scene.
It's not so obvious why special notifier type is needed for scene
set and deletion -- it confuses undo system without having some
obvious advantages. Using "direct" scene deletion and setting
seems to be working fine so let's see if there'll be some issues
with this.
bug was that uiPupMenuSaveOver(...) could run the WM API call function which freed the operator, within the low level invoke function which kept using the freed memory.
Changed uiPupMenuSaveOver(...) to only show a popup so the caller needs to check if the file exists and should be immediately written (which was done everywhere except for blend saving anyway).
* added note that operators invoke/exec funcs cant call WM_operator_call(...) on themselves, ends up using freed memory.
* added BLI_is_file(path), checks the file exists and isnt a directory.
* Adds two new python handlers: scene_update_pre() and scene_update_post()
These run before and after Blender does a scene update on making modifications
to the scene.
* Datablocks now have an is_updated property. This will be set to true in the
above callbacks if the datablock was tagged to be updated. This works for the
most common datablocks used for rendering: object, material, world, lamsp,
texture, mesh, curve.
* Datablock collections also have an is_updated property. If this is set, it
means one datablock of this type was added, removed or modified. It's also
useful as a quick check to avoid looping over all datablocks.
* RenderEngine.view_update() can also check these properties, for interactive
viewport rendering.

* This adds a Rendered draw type in the 3D view, only available when
the render engine implements the view_draw callback.
* 3D view now stores a pointer to a RenderEngine.
* view_draw() callback will do OpenGL drawing instead of the viewport.
* view_update() callback is called after depsgraph updates.
- remove redundant casts
- replace strcmp's with "" to just check first char.
- added WM_event_print(), debug mode only to print events since the structs values are not that meaningful.
- added warnings if locale/font dirs cant be found.
- currently X11 only, depends on Xinput (but should not break other os's).
- ghost stores utf8 buffer, copies to wmEvent's
- UI text input is currently the only area that uses this - not console or text editor.
- no rna access yet.
Stylus can produce slight movements when it touches tablet,
so CLICK event wasn't triggering. Do not store INBETWEEN_MOUSE
as previous event to make CLICK events triggered correct.
Thanks to Brecht to pointing on short way to fix this problem.
in graph editor > channel menu. Problem was these did not inherit operator
execution context correctly.
Fix found by Sergey, also needed to fix logic operators which were not working
when invoked instead of executed.
Diff Keymaps
User edited keymaps now no longer override the builtin keymaps entirely, but
rather save only the difference and reapply those changes. This means they can
stay better in sync when the builtin keymaps change. The diff/patch algorithm
is not perfect, but better for the common case where only a few items are changed
rather than entire keymaps The main weakness is that if a builtin keymap item
changes, user modification of that item may need to be redone in some cases.
Keymap Editor
The most noticeable change here is that there is no longer an "Edit" button for
keymaps, all are editable immediately, but a "Restore" buttons shows for keymaps
and items that have been edited. Shortcuts for addons can also be edited in the
keymap editor.
Addons
Addons now should only modify the new addon keyconfiguration, the keymap items
there will be added to the builtin ones for handling events, and not get lost
when starting new files. Example code of register/unregister:
km = wm.keyconfigs.addon.keymaps.new("3D View", space_type="VIEW_3D")
km.keymap_items.new('my.operator', 'ESC', 'PRESS')
km = wm.keyconfigs.addon.keymaps["3D View"]
km.keymap_items.remove(km.keymap_items["my.operator"])
Compatibility
The changes made are not forward compatible, i.e. if you save user preferences
with newer versions, older versions will not have key configuration changes that
were made.
