* Now it displays the last report from the global list, not just from operators
* Rather than disappearing when a new operator is run, it stays until it times
out or a new report is added
* Fun animated transitions ;)

Now need to investigate report usage with popups. Ideally we can have most
reports non-blocking, so they're less intrusive, only popping up for dire errors.
Problem is many things in Blender right now are marked as RPT_ERROR
when probably RPT_WARNING is more appropriate. Should probably keep
RPT_ERROR for things that demand immediate attention.
clear properties operator
- now it's not part of the copy properties anymore (Matt's suggestion).
If anyone want to change the menu, please help yourself (renaming, putting in it's own submenu, making it invisible when mode is not Game ..)
there are internal memory problems which can make it crash still.
If you remove all directories in the scripts folder except for 'modules' and 'ui', it runs without crashes.
Request from mindrones :)
* Next to the Wiki URL, it's now possible to have a link to the tracker, for bug reports.
"bl_addon_info" dictionary:
* Renamed 'url' to 'wiki_url'
* Added 'tracker_url'
Current SVN crashes, if we are using hard-cuts on multicam tracks. Changing to soft cuts for now
(since it should be the same for effect strips anyways...)
* Path drawing now works for non hair particles.
* Should fix the following bugs too:
[#21316] Hair weight drawing is wrong
[#21923] Consistent Crash When Rendering Particle Scene.
[#21950] Path rendering option for particles causes crash
- Also made it so sys.stdin isnt overwritten anymore, instead the interactive consoel overwrites while it executes and restores after.
- removed hope folder from sphinx patch path
1) Fixed some weird formatting introduced during math-lib cleanups, and some other inconsistencies
2) Optimised the Maintain Volume constraint by taking the value calculations out
Copy All Constraints Operators:
* Added one for bones too
* These are now included in the menus
* Removed some weird/extra code copying/changing/bleh the actcol/totcol stuff...
This constraint allows an object or bone to have their rotations applied as if their origin/pivot-point was located elsewhere. The most obvious uses include foot-roll, see-saws, but could also include more complicated rolling-box examples.
== Usage Examples ==
=== Foot Roll ===
1. Add 'Pivot' Constraint to the bone without any target.
2. Set the 'Y' value of the offset to the length of the bone. Usually this should be negative (if you rig with feet facing 'forwards' along -Y axis). This gives you a pivot point relative to the bone's (preconstraint) location, which should be at the tip of the bone here. Disabling the 'Use Relative Offset' would make this offset be relative to 0,0,0 instead of to the owner/bone-head.
3. Ensure that the 'Pivot When' setting is set to '-X Rot', (default) which means that the pivot will only used when the rotation on the X-Axis is negative to get tip-toe 'roll'.
=== See Saw ===
1. Add a 'Pivot' constraint too see-saw plank object, this time with a target that you wish to have as the pivot-point. It's possible to do this without too (as before), but is less intuitive.
2. Optionally, if you want the plank slightly raised, set the z-offset value, which should make the pivot-point used to be relative to the target with the z-offset applied.
3. Ensure that 'Pivot When' is set to 'Always', which means that the pivot will always be used, irrespective of the rotation.
== Notes ==
* The 'Pivot When' setting has been integrated in the constraint, since this is something that will often be required for these setups. Having to set up additional drivers to drive the constraint to do this kindof beats the purpose of providing this.
* The 'Offset' functionality is probably not presented as clearly as it could be. We may need to go over this again.
* For foot-roll - if any scaling of the foot is required, simply set up a driver on the y-offset to make this dynamically respond to the "scale" RNA property of the bones (don't use the "Transform Channel" vartype since that won't work correct here). However, this shouldn't be common enough to warrant special treatment.
Now, rather than the bit-too-alarming stop sign, threaded wmJobs
display a progress indicator in the header. This is an optional feature
for each job type and still uses the same hardcoded ui template
(could use further work here...).
Currently implemented for:
Render - parts completed, then nodes comped
Compositor - nodes comped
Fluid Sim - frames simulated
Texture Bake - faces baked
Example: http://mke3.net/blender/devel/2.5/progress.mov
- own mistake in scene help text.
- rename properties to have users as the prefix for better ordering.
- use fixed height for stamp, gives better aligned text.
- #22155: keyframe dots not shown on path for bone keyframes that aren't in a group with a matching name. Since this situation is going to become more common in 2.5, I've added an option which will alternatively just search the entire action to find all F-Curves associated with bones. The old option is still the default though for the general cases.
- When keyframe drawing is enabled, the current frame will also be indicated on the path now as a (bigger) green dot, as requested by William. This makes it easier to see the position on the path on the current frame.
Communicate the existing material displacement feature's strange dependence on both
'normal' and 'displacement' influences better. This will do until the improved displacement
is merged from render branch.
According to Matt the RMB->Copy to selected wouldn't work for logics because the copy we need is for the whole logic (s/c/a). So (at least for the time been), copy logic is possible again.
It work as 2.49 (replacing the existent logic).
Add Logics is a python menu to give quick access to add logics. I have to see how to put that in Add Menu. I should be easy, but I'll leave it for later.
