C functions and python used different argument order, this relied on mapping non-keyword arguments to 'REQUIRED' arguments but meant that you could not have an optional, non-keyword argument.
next commit will make order of arguments consistant (currently only changed order that rna wrapped).
(commit 27674 by Campbell from render25 branch)
It's (still) not working since the pool in the operator will not allow this operator to run without context.
For the window/area/screen has to be created somewhere (maybe in WM_init_game ).
I have no idea on what should be done to initialize it here, so if anyone knows how to proceed, please help here.
* side note: should we also have it as a command line option?
Reports (i.e. 'info' or 'errors') are now shown in the info header in place of the scene statistics if the last executed operator had some, with this info disappearing again once another operator is run (to show scene statistics again).
For example, this means that info such as the the number of verts merged, or whether a Keying Set successfully inserted keyframes, etc. is now shown again somewhere, and that this is done in a non-blocking manner.
The current implementation is still a bit crude (i.e. lacking fancy polish), but is at least barebones functional. The todos...
* When more than 1 report message is generated by the last operator, there is currently a display of the number of reports. In future, it would be nice to be able to add a button beside this or make the label clickable with appropriate text indicating this (commented out atm) to show popup menu of all the reports...
* There could probably be some kind of coloured backdrop behind the text. Currently using standard box, but that has padding problems, and lacks visual interest.
* Timer based fade out/disappear?
Running scripts directly didnt call the register function, even though this is not essential its good to be able to run a script directly and see changes in the UI.
The 'save over' popup was only appearing based on a string comparison of the operator name ("Save"). Changed this to use a hidden operator property: "check_existing". Python operators must
have this property for the file selector confirmation too.
This property can also be set to false, to prevent checking for existing files, useful in the File->Save menu item to prevent the dangerously missable confirmation popup.
from bpy.app import binary_path, version, version_string, home
can add constant variables from blender here as needed (maybe functions too... bpy.app.memory_usage() ?)
On ubuntu/debian install these tools...
sudo apt-get install pylint pyflakes python-setuptools python-pip
sudo pip install pep8
then run from blenders source dir...
python release/test/pep8.py
This searches for the comments "# <pep8 compliant>" and "# <pep8-80 compliant>", running the checking tools on these scripts only.
* some minor pep8 corrections too.
customisable player.
You can choose a player in User Preferences -> File Paths. You can
choose a plan custom command line, otherwise there are presets available
for the Blender 2.4 player or DJV (where it will give it the correct filename,
fps, etc on the command line). So for example if you have a Blender 2.4
version installed, you can enter the path to the blender 2.4 executable,
and the playback will work just like before.
Any info on other frame players (FrameCycler? pdplayer?) and their
command line settings could be useful for adding some more presets too,
if anyone knows of them.
It's available in Render->Play Rendered Animation (Ctrl F11)
Now, temp screens are hidden from being accessed directly, with a new 'Back to Previous' button appearing in place of the screen menu when (for example) fullscreen render image areas are present. Window type menus also get disabled here too, to prevent things from getting too mixed up.
1. MSVC 9 projectfiles update (graph_header.c, action_header.c and nla_header.c removed)
2. Fix for opening the filebrowser when saving file for the first time (untitled.blend) from file menu
3. Add CROSS effect sequence type back to menu. (Durian fix)
Note: Removed SEQ_EFFECT from rna, since this no actual sequence type, but rather used to check for the effect bit.
- remove functions such as operator_int(), operator_enum(), operator_string
this mixed with keyword arguments in a way that made them hard to read.
Instead, have operator() always return properties rather then needing an argument.
- rename prop_pointer() --> prop_object(), pointer is more a C thing.
- missed item_enumR(), rename to prop_enum()
