- All of this is in python and easy to change.
- each panel class has a set() of compatible engines.
- this set is checked for the poll function
- external engines can add themselves to this panels compatible engines
eg.
buttons_world.WORLD_PT_mist.COMPAT_ENGINES.add('POVRAY_RENDER')
I tried doing this by subclassing each panel and replacing only the poll function to reference 'POVRAY_RENDER' but it became fairly complicated and meant registering many of the same panels under different names.
Added mist support to povray.
- shift+b in the console would do border zoom (rather then upper case B), fixed by making v2d's border zoom check if the v2d's zoom is locked.
- blender in debug mode registers all operators, useful for testing.
* Revert lamp sampling/buffers change. The right enum items should
be defined in RNA, not the layout, so that it works in outliner,
python api too.
* Also changed type popup to radio buttons again, and removed the
icons. This is more consistent, and I don't think it's a good idea
to start using icons for these things, too much clutter.
* Replace Mesh with Normals panel in the mesh buttons.
* Remove Material panel from mesh buttons.
* Added name fields for shape/vgroup/vcol/uv.
* Spacing tweak to Object and Bone names.
* Fix some naming conflicts in RNA, with "name" and "type" properties
being defined twice in the same struct.
* context.scene.tool_settings -> context.tool_settings.
- simplified C operator API bpy.__ops__ since its wrapped by python now.
- needs the class to have an __idname__ rather then __name__ (like menus, headers)
- convert python names "console.exec" into blender names "CONSOLE_OT_exec" when registering (store the blender name as class.__idname_bl__, users scripters wont notice)
- bpy.props.props ???, removed
- reports can be selected with RMB, Border (bkey) and (de)select all.
- delete reports (X key)
- run operators in the console (R key)
- copy reports (Ctrl+C), can be pasted in the text editor an run with alt+p
Details
- Added "selected_editable_objects" and "selected_editable_bases" to screen_context.c, use the scene layers, this was needed for duplicate to run outside the 3D view.
- RNA_property_as_string converted an array of 1 into "(num)" need a comma so python sees it as a tuple - "(num,)"
- add flag to reports, use for seletion atm.
opens a new world of context bugs :)
this works for the calling operators from python and using the RNA api.
bpy.ops.CONSOLE_exec() is now bpy.ops.console.exec()
eg.
split.itemO("PARTICLE_OT_editable_set", text="Free Edit") becomes... split.itemO("particle.editable_set", text="Free Edit")
For now any operator thats called checks if its missing _OT_ and assumes its python syntax and converts it before doing the lookup.
bpy.ops is a python class in release/ui/bpy_ops.py which does the fake submodules and conversion, the C operator api is at bpy.__ops__
personally Id still rather rename C id-names not to contain the _OT_ text which would avoid the conversion, its called a lot since the UI has to convert the operators.
- Set View2D operators not to register, got in the way a lot with the console.
- Made autocomplete Ctrl+Enter so Tab can be used.
- Should work with python 2.5 now. (patch from Vilda)
- Moved report struct definitions into DNA_windowmanager_types.h, could also have DNA_report_types.h however the reports are not saved, its just needed so the report list can be used in the wmWindowManager struct. Fixes a crash reported by ZanQdo.
- Store the report message length in the report so calculating the total height including word wrap is not so slow.
- added class option for PyOperators __register__ so you can set if py operators are logged in the console.
- PyOperators was refcounting in a more readable but incorrect way. in some cases would be possible to crash so better not drop the reference before using the value.
- console zoom operator was registering which meant zooming in to see some text would push it away :)
* interactive console python console.
* display reports and filter types. defaults to operator display so you can see the python commands for tools as you use them,
eventually it should be possible to select commands and make macto/tools from them.
Example use of autocomp. b<tab>, bpy.<tab>, bpy.<tab>, bpy.data.<tab> etc.
basic instructions are printed when opening the console.
Details...
* Console exec and autocomp are done with operators written in python.
* added CTX_wm_reports() to get the global report list.
* The window manager had a report ListBase but reports have their own struct, switched to allocate and assign when initializing the WM since the type is not available in DNA.
* changed report types flags for easier display filtering.
* added report type RPT_OPERATOR
* logging operators also adds a python-syntax report into CTX_wm_reports() so they can be displayed in the console as well as calling a notifier for console to redraw.
* RnaAPI context.area.tag_redraw() to redraw the current area from a python operator.
Todo...
* better interactions with the console, scrolling, copy/paste.
* the text displayed doesnt load back.
* colors need to be themed.
* scroll limit needs to be a user pref.
* only tested with cmake and scons.
