- access with the F key, Ctrl+Alt+F in editmode, View->Navigation menu
- camera, perspective & 4split (perspective view only)
- uses modal keymap, (same as 2.4x).
- bugfix since 2.4x, when flying upside down, turning left/right was inverted.
- bugfix for "Align Camera To View", was using deprecated v3d->ofs rather then rv3d->ofs, fixed for NDof fly too. checked v3d->ofs is only used in readfile.c
Todo
- Warping the cursor removed in 2.5, no way to place the cursor in the middle of the view.
- Adding keyframes while in flymode to record the path is missing.
- Not getting MMB mouse release events (used for pan). need to look into why.
* Vertex Groups list now has a more normal length (2 rows by default)
* Copy vertex groups button now has an icon
* Pose Sliding tools now allow events which it doesn't process to pass through (i.e. zooming the view now works, and also moving around using the numpad works too)
* copied I/O scripts
* copied, modified rna_*_api.c and rna_*.c
I/O scripts not working yet due to slight BPY differences and RNA changes. Will fix them later.
Not merged changes:
* C unit testing integration, because it is clumsy
* scons cross-compiling, can be merged easily later
- Commands from the history wont get modified in-place when you cycle back and re-use them.
- Ctrl Left/Right skip words.
- Autocompletion on a variable that has no alternatives adds a '.'
'bpy' -> 'bpy.', generally more useful since autocomp again will give the members of bpy
also moved text_check_* functions into BKE_text.h for the console to access.
% sign for percentage assuming it is between 0-100, while factor is
for values 0-1.
Move collision setting absorption from modifier to collision settings,
was inconsistent to have it there as the only one, and made it have
range 0.0-1.0 instead of 0-100.
* Wrapped Color Key and Blur Node.
* Nodes using RNA properties can be animated. You can now choose if the Nodes Window should be updated while animation playback too. (Timeline>Playback Menu)
* #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...
Added the new pose tools in the toolbar.
Changed a few armature values to enums.
Brecht: The Heads/Tails enum seems to also enable armature.draw_axis, and the paths_type enum affects armature.draw_names
- remove falloff setting now the curve is used.
- bugfix for airbrush & tablet, with no movement it would assume 1.0 pressure.
- rna, use the use_* prefix for brush options.
New stuff
- Bending springs for hair dynamics.
Code cleanup & optimization
- Disabled reactor particles temporarily for cleanup, it's a clumsy system that will be replaced with something better.
- Removed child seams, something better will come here too :)
- Normal particle drawing data is now saved between redraws if the particles don't move between redraws.
* For example rotating the 3d view is now realtime even with 1M particles.
- Many random values for particles now come from a lookup table making things much faster.
- Most accessed small point cache functions are now much faster as macros.
- Lot's of general code cleanup.
- Nothing big should have changed so if something doesn't work like it used to it's probably just a typo somewhere :)
Disable windows' blocking crash reports in child process. (windows only)
Get server port as well as ip address from master broadcast (broadcast is on a fixed port).
* The image panels in the image editor and texture buttons
should be more complete now, with working new/open,
refreshes, and using the layout engine.
* Paint panels in image editor are now consistent with the
ones in the 3d view toolbar.
* Curves panel also uses layout engine, and doesn't look
squashed anymore.
* Fix problem with curve mapping / color ramps not updating
things like previews propertly. Now it uses the RNA update
of the pointer from the material/texture/.. so each of those
can define their own update, but still share the RNA struct.
* Code for these templates is now in interface_templates.c
* Fix exception for "axis" property, now it always shows normal
widget with the PROP_DIRECTION subtype.
* Remove context from uiBlockLayoutResolve, no longer needed.
- 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.
writes all operators (including PyOperators) and their default values into a textblock.
Useful for an overview and checking consistancy.
eg. http://www.pasteall.org/7918/python
added rna functions text.clear() and text.write(str)
