This came up in #108096

Reason this fails is the ui_but_has_array_value check [which depends
on a property subtype that supports arrays]. The default VectorBuilder
has a PropertySubType of PROP_NONE though, so one possibility
would be to change this to PROP_XYZ.

However, RNA should know much better which RNA property buttons
have arrays than the UI code, so use RNA_property_array_check now
(instead of checking particular UI property subtypes).

This came up in #108096 Reason this fails is the `ui_but_has_array_value` check [which depends on a property subtype that supports arrays]. The default `VectorBuilder` has a `PropertySubType` of `PROP_NONE` though, so one possibility would be to change this to `PROP_XYZ`. However, RNA should know much better which RNA property buttons have arrays than the UI code, so use RNA_property_array_check now (instead of checking particular UI property subtypes).

This came up in #108096

Reason this fails is the `ui_but_has_array_value` check [which depends
on a property subtype that supports arrays]. The default `VectorBuilder`
has a `PropertySubType` of `PROP_NONE` though, now changed to `PROP_XYZ`
which does make sense for vectors and doesnt have other relevant
behavior changes (except for maybe the auto-coloring fcurves when
keyframing).

It seems odd to me that ui_but_has_array_value uses a list of subtypes for this. Could it not use RNA_property_array_check(but->rnaprop) as part of its test?

Was thinking the same initially, but went with the less disruptive fix first.
Still think RNA_property_array_check is probably better for this, would enable us to get rid of a function and save us from future issues like this afaict.

Still, I often find myself prefering to not mix fixes and such "cleanup".

TBH it seems like what Harley suggests is the way to go. RNA should know much better which RNA property buttons have arrays than the UI code. The way it is right now looks redundant.

479a6a2fd3 Use RNA_property_array_check instead of tweaking subtype

this seems more future proof

Yeah, lets do it that way then
