*** use-case:
"I have 10 reference images that overlap each other and every time I want to see one, I need to change the transparency of all the others.
therefore it would be nice to have a little button by each menu to allow enable/disabling individual background images"
To avoid subversioning bump I created a define that is negative (DISABLED) and of course a rna that is a boolean_negative.
Talked with Campbell and he actually prefers this way over do_version, so there it goes.
This should fix an error with generated qtcreator projects.
also replace decoded bytes for unicode escape sequences in the VIEW3D_MT_edit_text_chars menu.
- Changed some names so now people who aren't really familiar with
motion tracking can understand what they exactly means
- Also cleaned up and rephraded some descriptions
- Changed behavior of operator which creates empty for 2d tracks:
now it operates on all selected tracks rather than active track only
- Added checkbox to enable/disable rotation stabilization
- Move tracking-related constraints to own section in list
Currently there are only two constraints, so can look a bit odd,
but it'll be other constraints like "Object Solver" and so.
- Move motion-tracking parameters from 3D viewport Display panel
to it's own panel.
- Get rid of "Bundle" in 3d viewport. It's quite obvious that it's
a 3D representation of tracks is used in 3D viewport and it shouldn't
be so confusing for artists now.
- Also get rid of "Bundle" in Follow Track constraint.
Old files can change a bit because of changes in DNA.
- Also get rid of "Bundles" in operator which creates vertices cloud
from 3D position of tracks.
- Rename "Principal Point" to "Optical Center" in the interface.
===========================
Commiting camera tracking integration gsoc project into trunk.
This commit includes:
- Bundled version of libmv library (with some changes against official repo,
re-sync with libmv repo a bit later)
- New datatype ID called MovieClip which is optimized to work with movie
clips (both of movie files and image sequences) and doing camera/motion
tracking operations.
- New editor called Clip Editor which is currently used for motion/tracking
stuff only, but which can be easily extended to work with masks too.
This editor supports:
* Loading movie files/image sequences
* Build proxies with different size for loaded movie clip, also supports
building undistorted proxies to increase speed of playback in
undistorted mode.
* Manual lens distortion mode calibration using grid and grease pencil
* Supervised 2D tracking using two different algorithms KLT and SAD.
* Basic algorithm for feature detection
* Camera motion solving. scene orientation
- New constraints to "link" scene objects with solved motions from clip:
* Follow Track (make object follow 2D motion of track with given name
or parent object to reconstructed 3D position of track)
* Camera Solver to make camera moving in the same way as reconstructed camera
This commit NOT includes changes from tomato branch:
- New nodes (they'll be commited as separated patch)
- Automatic image offset guessing for image input node and image editor
(need to do more tests and gather more feedback)
- Code cleanup in libmv-capi. It's not so critical cleanup, just increasing
readability and understanadability of code. Better to make this chaneg when
Keir will finish his current patch.
More details about this project can be found on this page:

Further development of small features would be done in trunk, bigger/experimental
features would first be implemented in tomato branch.
This means that you don't need to have the view panel open all the
time, reducing the amount of scrolling required just to be able to
precisely position the 3D cursor at specific coordinates while
changing some other settings. While most of the settings in the View
panel are less likely to be frequently changed, the 3D cursor can in
some workflows end up needing to be accessed quite frequently.
from Troy Sobotka (sobotka), with edits
- remove Markers from Ctrl+L menu (was out of place here and was broken from recent changes to marker operators)
- further de-duplicte scripts by having all menus call the same function: marker_menu_generic().
this fixes bug [#29083] too.
* Scene.use_shading_nodes property to check if RenderEngine is using new shading
nodes system, and RenderEngine.bl_use_shading_nodes to set this.
* Add mechanism for tagging nodes as being compatible with the old/new system.
It now had issues when hiding menus with the - icon, space selector disappeared.
I am sorry for that, but I consider this a show stopper eventually. :(
This commit introduces the issue with narrowed verts/edge/face select in solid/edit mode again.
* Vert/Edge/Face select buttons looked crappy when in EditMode and Wireframe shading. Fixed it.
This commit makes the View3D Template a bit narrower in general, but it's very minor, should be no problem.
This also fixes some weird increase/decrease of the 3D Mode selector menu when toggling between Textured/Solid and Wireframe/Boundbox shading.
- cmake/windows was installing locale & font when internationalization was disabled, twice when enabled.
- file selector was using the string size-1, where this isn't needed since string buttons expected this value to be the sizeof(), accounting for '\0'.
- use const char for extension checking funcs.
- minor pep8 edits
- add quick effects to object menu, these are too useful to hide in search menu.
- set/clear track/parent - expand the operators enums in submenus - no advantage in having a further popup after clicking on the menu item.
- move 'Join UVs' into Make links menu which is currently being abused to store some copy functions. Do this because the 'Object' menu is getting too big.
- removed some unused functions.
- renamed vars to make more sense paint_vertex.c 'flags' --> 'lock_flags'
- some odd modifications were made in unrealted, commented code, copy these back from trunk.
- rename vertex_group_fix 'cp' property to 'accuracy'
- make style more consistant with trunk.
- remove 'Radish' comments.
- Make gettext stuff draw-time. so switching between languages
can happens without restart now.
- Added option to translate visible interface (menus, buttons, labels)
and tooltips. Now it's possible to have english UI and localized tooltips.
- Clean-up sources, do not use gettext stuff for things which can be
collected with RNA.
- Fix issues with windows 64bit and ru_RU locale on my desktop
(it was codepage issue).
- Added operator "Get Messages" which generates new text block with
with all strings collected from RNA.
- Changed script for updating blender.pot so now it appends
messages collected from rna to automatically gathered messages.
To update .pot you have to re-generate messages.txt using "Get Messages"
operator and then run update_pot script.
- Clean up old translation stuff which wasn't used and most probably
wouldn't be used.
- Return back "International Fonts" option, so if it's disabled, no
gettext lookups happens on draw.
- Merged read_homefile function back. No need in splitting it.
TODO:
- Custom fonts and font size.
Current font isn't nice at least for russian locale, it's
difficult to read it.
- Put references to messages.txt so gettext can merge translation when
name/description of some property changes.
- renaming a bone could crash if the area had to spaces in it (reported by Sebastian Koenig).
- renaming bones wouldn't update inactive 3d views locked bone names.
- selecting locked bones in the UI didnt work in editmode.
