Tried to resolve todo item "Layer change in 3d view header doesn't update
dependencies on changed previously visible objects". Code is too much spread
around now though, and the 3d view header shares RNA code for changing layers.
I'll let this be a "glitch" for now.
- WITH_OPENJPEG wasn't defined for creator.c with CMake.
- remove shadowed/redefined vars.
- remove some unused RNA report args.
- re-arrange IMB_FILE_TYPES so IRIS is not the first format tested, since its not very common test JPEG and PNG first.
popup appears, saving an extra click
I've separated out the "XXX"-'d event-adding-hack section from the
search-menu code into a separate API function (as recommended there).
This call is used to make sure that textboxes in popups can get
activated by default, to allow typing immediately.
most local modifier,GPU,ImBuf and Interface functions are now static.
also fixed an error were the fluid modifier definition and the header didnt have the same number of args.
Added new option for applyong modifiers on splines' points. This moves
tesselation point and path would be affected by modifiers which are applied on
splines' points.
also minor functional changes
- OBJECT_OT_make_links_data() type property is now assigned to the operator property (so popup menu can find it)
- removing BG image now returns cancelled if no image is removed.
The icons for materials were always lagging or not updating
at all. I also found it suspicious slow...
It appeared that the icons now store a "mip level", where for
every change in Materials 2 render jobs for icons were started,
one for 32x32 pix, one for 96x96. The latter was cancelling out
the first job almost always.
Also made preview renders detect size, to set amount of tiles
to be rendered. Small icons use 1 part, larger previews 16 now.
All in all, behaves much smoother now! But, will also update
the thread Jobs manager to allow "delayed jobs" like for icons,
these are aggressively put as first in the jobs list.
- rather then use unlink="None", just don't pass unlink as a keyword. This is more pythonic.
- added an RNA flag for properties which cant be unlinked by setting to None.
A note for branch users: CMake 2.8 on 64-bit Windows Vista raised
an error in line 948 of soc-2008-mxcurioni/CMakeLists.txt due to
an invalid argument for the blender_include_dirs macro:
blender_include_dirs(${OPENGL_INCLUDE_DIR})
The command above should be:
blender_include_dirs("${OPENGL_INCLUDE_DIR}")
Property buttons: the "ID template" allowed to unlink data from object,
like Mesh or Curve etc, which is not supported. Button now is hidden.
Thanks Dan Eicher for patch.
Also: improved tooltip for 'data browse'. It was generic, now it gives
specific per-type information.
For constraints that have 'disabled' flag (because it has invalid
input) the name was drawn in red. Easy to recognize constraints that
stopped working.
Two isses:
- Material assigning to MetaBalls used wrong pointer
(copy paste error, casting badly).
- Checking for node-material used wrong RNA pointer
(confusing void stuff going on here!)
The error leads to corruption in data and/or random
crashes. Better update svn now!
- Part of this report is a misunderstanding, but there was no access to bold/italic fonts.
- Added rna access and changed the operators to use only rna properties.
only tags the ID and does the actual flush/update delayed, before the next
redraw. For objects the update was already delayed, just flushing wasn't
yet.
This should help performance in python and animation editors, by making
calls to RNA property update quicker. Still need to add calls in a few
places where this was previously avoided due to bad performance.
When using Material Nodes, there was no indication in Material
Property window which node was active. The context/channel widget
now shows this.
Better would be to be able to browse nodes in this list, and
to have option to preview only this material (not node tree
result). Enough todo for future :)
* Keyframing operators now use the reports system for displaying all its error messages.
- The benefit of this is that users no longer need to check the console for error messages if keyframing fails.
- Unfortunately, reports are not currently viewable in any space/view in Blender, so...
* Added a temporary operator (UI_OT_reports_to_textblock), which can be accessed in the UI from the button which appears in place of the icon when more than one report exists. This dumps the current list of reports to a textblock "Recent Reports", from which they can be viewed.
This isn't really nice, but at least we now have a way to view these again, which makes debugging some things a pain.
* Bugfix #24606 - when trying to add keyframes to F-Curves with F-Modifiers already which alter the curve significantly enough that the keyframes will have no effect, there are now warnings which aim to alleviate any confusion.
Also use const char in many other parts of blenders code.
Currently this gives warnings for setting operator id, label and description since these are an exception and allocated beforehand.
