This was a request by Daniel Salazar. It adds a new frame offset variable to fluid sim settings, which can be used to display baked fluid sims at different times. Eventually this could be replaced by real NLA strips for cached data, but until then this is a simple way to have more flexible cache result usage.
Not strictly a BCon3 patch, but after IRC discussion with Genscher, ZanQdo and kaito decided to commit it anyway, since it's a small feature and makes fluid sim a bit more usable. Similar patch for point cache (particles, smoke, cloth) is being worked on as well.
Realize this is bcon3 but this is was very bad IMHO.
- button adjusting key block was in between 2 object settings - which is misleading/confusing.
- you needed to click through all shapes to check which was muted, currently you's assume 1.0 means the shape is enabled.
While looking at a bug report, I found that the current GUI for the Action
Constraint actually didn't make sense, mixing up settings so that it wasn't
clear which settings corresponded to which others. This commit cleans up the
layout into a clearer two-column design to have a "from" -> "to" layout, making
all the
relationships between things clear.

gui-revised.html
- Renamed graph_jump_to_current_frame to graph_center_current_frame
which makes more sense.
- Curve view now can be locked to time cursor (Lock to Time Cursor in
Display panel or L button in curve view). Not sure if offset from
locked position will make much sense here.
- Added hotkey for solving -- Shift-S.
- Fixed tooltip displaying for track sequence forwards in clip editor
- Corrected detection of 8 tracks so it wouldn't count tracks disabled
on keyframes.
- Scale track preview to actual track widget size instead of scaling the
whole preview image with given zoom ratio, so no extra memory needed to
store zoomed margin would be used.
- Track's statistics text will fit pattern position instead of search if
marker is disabled on current frame.
- Fixed toggle selection operator if selected track is hidden due to
"Hide Disabled" policy.
This commit restores support for freezing or speeding up physics sims. Animate
the "Speed" parameter under Domain->Time, which controls a multiplier factor for
the rate at which the sim proceeds (i.e. the old "Fac-Tim" setting).
Notes:
* Subversion bumped to 4 to patch up defaults for new value so that old sim
files will still run correctly
* Names/descriptions could do with some tweaking
* Porting this across was not that obvious since quite a bit of stuff had
changed (as in, been cleaned up). However, from tests so far, it seems to work
well.
* Some tweaks to the modifier UI
* Hide sharpness property, instead of greying out.
The policy is to use greying out when a property depends on a boolean, if it depends on an enum item, hide it.
=========================
Documentation: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Psy-Fi/UV_Tools
Major features include:
*16 bit image support in viewport
*Subsurf aware unwrapping
*Smart Stitch(snap/rotate islands, preview, middlepoint/endpoint stitching)
*Seams from islands tool (marks seams and sharp, depending on settings)
*Uv Sculpting(Grab/Pinch/Rotate)
All tools are complete apart from stitching that is considered stable but with an extra edge mode under development(will be in soc-2011-onion-uv-tools).
* Added per surface options "influence scale" and "radius scale" for tweaking brush settings individually for each surface.
* Added option to completely disable drying. This should be nice for indefinitely spreading paint etc.
* Improved paint mixing algorithm.
* "Paint effects" now work in relative mesh space instead of global. This means that effect speed remains same for identical shapes regardless of their size.
* Complete rewrite of "spread effect" algorithm. It now works much better in all test cases done. Old algo sometimes produced artifacts and stopped spreading too early.
* Adjustments / rewrite on some parts of dripping algorithm to make it work better with transparent paint.
* Added a new "color dry" setting. It can be used to define wetness level when paint colors start to shift to surface "background". Lower values can be useful to prevent spreading paint from becoming transparent as it dries, while higher (default) values give better results in general.
* Fix: If multiple displace/wave surfaces were used simultaneously, displace was applied using wrong normal.
Please note that due to these changes in "paint effects" system older save files may require some tweaking to match results from previous versions.
- added back 2.4x 'Vgroup' option to the UI, restricts painting to verts already in the group.
- remove 'All Faces' button in weight paint mode. it doesn't do anything.
Things like brush size and strength accessors now take a scene
parameter rather than guessing about which Scene's unified paint
settings to use.
Setting the size/strength through RNA can now be done separately for
the brush or the UnifiedPaintSettings.
The UI python code required updating to check whether the
size/strength controls should use brush or UnifiedPaintSettings RNA.
Radial control also required some updates to switch between the two
RNA sources.
