nice that it uses foreach_get/set for fast array copying from python.
note: this is getting out of hand, we beed some central panel/interface for copying mesh data about - shapes, UVs weights etc. at the moment they are accessed from all different places.
change how data is added. eg.
bpy.data.add_mesh(name) --> bpy.data.meshes.new(name)
bpy.data.remove_lamp(lamp) --> bpy.data.lamps.remove(lamp)
image and texture stil use add_* funcs
Useful if you have 2 different characters with the same base mesh (matching indicies), and want to copy a facial expression for eg, from one to another.
Durian request to re-use shapes between characters.
* Copies the active shape to other selected objects
* Different methods to apply the shape
* * OFFSET, simple translation offset
* * RELATIVE (EDGE/FACE), Use Barycentric transformation to copy the shape. This means the target mesh can be a different orientation and scale and the shape should still apply since the surrounding geometry is used as a basis for the offset.
bug: barycentric transform's depth was inverted.
Note:
* This isnt added into a menu yet,
* This cant be redone since adding a shape key messes up the redo stack. needs fixing for other scripts too.
- T was 'Flatten Brush', now Shift+T
- added an option to OBJECT_OT_subdivision_set to set the level relatively (so page up/down works), however RNA lets it set one level higher then the maximum, this seems displays OK in the 3D view so not sure whats going on here (as if there is always an extra hidden multires level).
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.
- retopo operator to convert grease pencil drawn topology into geometry, not in the convert menu yet since its not quite finished, use the operator search menu for retopo. will test this week and see what needs fixing.
