The issue here is that the preferences are still used because both can be accessed from the 3D View, view menu. In the future, it is likely that the old mode will be removed (maybe 2.8?) but for now we want to keep both operational.

Doing this in a fully 'clean' way is far from obvious, especially
unregister, you often end up leaving nasty 'orphanned' keymap items
referring to unregistered operators...
Moving to manual class registration means its easier to accidentally
miss registering classes.
Now detect missing class registration
and warn when running with `--debug-python`
For Windows 8.1 and X11 (Linux, BSD) now use the DPI specified by the operating
system, which previously only worked on macOS. For Windows this is handled per
monitor, for X11 this is based on Xft.dpi or xrandr --dpi. This should result
in appropriate font and button sizes by default in most cases.
The UI has been simplified to a single UI Scale factor relative to the automatic
DPI, instead of two DPI and Virtual Pixel Size settings. There is forward and
backwards compatibility for existing user preferences.

This adds the ability to switch between different application-configurations
without interfering with Blender's normal operation.
This commit doesn't include any templates,
so its mostly to allow collaboration for the Blender 101 project
and other custom configurations.
Application templates can be installed & selected from the file menu.
Other details:
- The `bl_app_template_utils` module handles template activation
(similar to `addon_utils`).
- The `bl_app_override` module is a general module
to assist scripts overriding parts of Blender in reversible way.
See docs:
https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/advanced/app_templates.html
See patch: D2565
Although this wasn't so obvious since it
only showed up for factory settings and in the preferences window.
Panel display order depends on registration order,
Sorry for the noise. On the bright side we no longer need to move
classes around to re-arrange panels.
- Add optional 'display_name' callback
so callers can construct own names.
- Add optional 'prop_filepath' argument
(for operators that don't use "filepath").
- Add doc-string.
- Use keyword only arguments.
The mesh convert operator can 'freeze' a mesh
(WYSIWYG, modifiers, shape keys etc).
However its not very obvious that the way to perform this
operation is to convert a mesh to a mesh.
Expose this as 'Visual Geometry to Mesh' in the 'Apply' menu,
since this is where users might expect to see it.
Intended to replace legacy GL_SELECT, without the limitations of
sample queries which can't access depth information.
This commit adds VIEW3D_SELECT_PICK_NEAREST and VIEW3D_SELECT_PICK_ALL
which access the depth buffers to detect whats under the pointer,
so initial selection is always the closest item.
The performance of this method depends a lot on the OpenGL
implementations glReadPixels.
Since reading depth can be slow, buffers are cached for object picking
so selecting re-uses depth data, performing 1 draw instead of 3
(for 24, 18, 10 px regions, picking with many items under the pointer).
Occlusion queries draw twice when picking nearest,
so worst case 6x draw calls per selection.
Even with these improvements occlusion queries is faster on AMD hardware.
Depth selection is disabled by default, toggle option under select method.
May enable by default if this works well on different hardware.

The custom poll function for surfacedeform_bind seems to have caused
issues when calling it from Python. Fixed by using the generic modifier
poll function, and setting the button to be active or not in the
Python UI code instead. (there might be a better way, but for now this
works fine)
The issue was introduced by 4df75e5 and seems we just need to explicitly
add new keymap item now.
There is still some difference from old behavior, which is planar transform
is using precision movement since e138cde and here i don't see nice solution
currently: the change was requested here in the studio and it's just a
conflict in picking shift key for something which is not supposed to be
accurate.
At least now it's possible to invoke planar constraint and simply unhold
shift.
This adds an option to force fields of type "Force", which enables the
simulation of gravitational behavior (dist^-2 falloff).

A group of object groups can be formed by means of the dupli_group option in
the Object properties window. The present revision extends the Selection by
Group option in the Freestyle Line Set so as to support not only flat object
groups but also nested groups.
This commit adds a way to debug Cycles motion blur issues which
are usually happening due to something crazy happening in between
of frames. Biggest trouble was that artists had no clue about
what's happening in subframes before they render. This is at
least inefficient workflow when dealing with motion blur shots
with complex animation.
Now there is an option in Time Line Editor which could be found
in View -> Show Subframe. This option will expose current frame
with it's subframe to the time line editor header and it'll allow
scrubbing with a subframe precision in time line editor.
Please note that none of the tools in Blender are aware of
subframe, so they'll likely be using current integer frame still.
This is something we don't consider a bug for now, the whole
purpose for now is to give a tool for investigation. Eventually
we'll likely tweak all tools to be aware of subframe.
Hopefully now we can finish the movie here in the studio..
