attenuation that should really be optional. There's also a minor
performance penalty and all this only for one problematic case. In case
the tool flattens two surfaces, users can manually set the front face
only option. A better non-attenuating way to cull such vertices can be
added later.
Also flatten brush should calculate the flatten plane from the original
vertices or the flattening will not converge for planes offsets
different than zero.
Reported by Michalis Zissiou, thanks!
* Cleanup for previous commit and reduce some local variable referencing
* Add support for brushes that operate on frontfaces only and do not
show the option for those brushes. Currently only clay strips is in the
list but this may change according to artist feedback. This should take
care of the "sticky" surface problem completely.
Notes:
* Made those edits by full checking of py files, so I should have spoted most needed edits, yet it remains quite probable I missed a few ones, we'll fix if/when someone notice it...
* Also made some cleanup "on the road"!
- expose unwrap as a menu (rather then a regular button that pops up a menu)
- move 2 extrude buttons into one menu button, also do the same for the mesh menu.
Moved the code after the masking check so we can skip the texture lookup
if the pixel is done, is a bit faster. Also hide the color wheel for these
tools, only did it for 2D paint in previous commit.
Allow separate control for tex/mask/cursor overlay. This commit implements
separate overlays for mask textures and cursor curves. The user can turn on
and off separate parts of the overlay by using the appropriate widgets.
The cursor overlay widgets are located at the tool selection panel
Also fixed alpha masks not getting correctly masked and mask texture mapping
not having the correct update callback
* Pressing x or y to scale overlay immediately presents visual feedback
instead of requiring mouse motion
* Hide the ovelay icon when stencil is active since you can't deactivate
then.
* Add a poll function that only activates the operator when a stencil
brush is active
* Change shortcuts to RMouse - translate, Shift - RMouse Scale, Ctrl -
RMouse, rotate. MUCH faster and simpler workflow.
* Change shortcut of colour sampling to S. Sampling is important but not
as important as warranting the Right Mouse button.
* Add a notifier so that toolbar gets updated texture rotation when
rotating the stencil
Also,
* Slight rearrangement of options so that jittering is more accessible
(easily more often used than smooth stroke)
* Using masking is determined only by the presence of the texture,
remove extraneous DNA flag (might cause issues later but in practice
brush options are not harmful)
* Overlay and angle sliders are active during stencil mapped brushes
* Only draw the overlay if there's a texture.
sculptification commit. We have a drop menu to select the stroke mode
now. Jitter controls appear under stroke panel under all modes (As they
should! They stroke control options). Also enable jittering for all
modes. I really fail to see why not.
- when running knife project, disable vertex selection since it may select areas between the newly cut regions.
add EDBM_selectmode_disable() function since loopcut does this too.
- (optimization) avoid looping over all geometry when flushing and no selection exists.
Developer notes: this commit does painting in sRGB space. Since colours
are stored im byte per component formats, expect this to have the usual
dark fringing issues. Speed wise vertex paint could use some
optimization, for instance we could store the screen space vertex
positions on initialization like we do for texture painting, but this is
for another time. Also noticed that vertex painting suffers from the
subsurf + mirror issue too :/
Apart from that it's quite exciting how easy it is to add support for
texturing now that proper abstractions for texture sampling have been
done :)
to brush size, and unlock icon to indicate absolute jitter untied to
brush size, in screen pixels. Also relative jitter now has soft UI limit
of 2.0 and a hard limit of 1000 times the size of the brush. Should be
enough for the most vivid imaginations...I hope!
absolute coordinates. This allows an artist to lower the brush radius
while keeping the spread of the brush constant. A toggle under the
jitter slider provides the option to switch between relative/absolute.
Fix for keyingsets tips, and make them (and a few others) findable by i18n messages extracting code (for some reasons, their bl_rna.description are void???).
pressure spacing across all paint systems (was supported only for
texture painting earlier). Also, switch paint code to use the new code
path from now on. No shift-Lclick required anymore.
- click-drag adds a ruler if there are none.
- pressing enter stores the ruler for re-use when activating again (saves as a grease-pencil layer).
- add to toolbar.
Adding new file paint_image_proj.c which includes the projective texture painting part of texture
painting, using the stroke system. To access the new code path use Shift-LClick.
The new code path still is problematic with tablet pressure and I will be looking
into ways to unify this across paint systems next.
The old code is still present and can be accessed by regular Lclick as usual.
Also removed 3D (non-projective) painting from 3D viewport.
TODO:
* Add pressure influence code to stroke, remove from every other paint
system code, including texpaint.
* Put UnifiedPaintSettings update in PaintStroke code.
Dragging on toggle buttons can now be used to press multiple buttons at once, especially useful for layer and outliner buttons.
notes:
- automatically enabled for all toggle buttons
(may change this if it becomes a problem).
- only buttons of the same type are pressed
(helps avoid annoyances eg; dragging past layer buttons onto other 3d header buttons and pressing by accident).
- automatic axis locking - dragging will lock to X/Y depending on the initial drag direction,
makes swipe motions work better, especially with the outliner.
implementation details:
- may re-implement as a region handler (currently its a modal operator).
- checking buttons in-between cursor motion events could be more efficient (but currently works ok).
- button execution needs to be improved
(currently executing a button thats not under the mouse needed a workaround for passing uiHandleButtonData),
requires further changes to UI code, will do next.
notes:
- vertices with zero weights are considered the same as vertices outside of a group.
- currently these show black but this can be made a theme color.
- multi-paint overrides this option (noted in description)
Systematically adding some custom id to template_list using default UI_UL_list class, this one is commoly used more than once in an area, yielding collision issues if they do not have a custom id...
