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
- scene.render_data.frame_path(frame=num), returns the output path for rending images of video.
- scene.render_data.file_extension, readonly attribute, gives the extension ".jpg", ".mov" etc
- player support was guessing names, use the above functions to get the actual names used, accounting for #'s replacing numbers.
- remove console zoom operator, use WM_OT_context_cycle_int instead.
- use WM_OT_context_cycle_int for text editor zoom also (Ctrl +/- and Ctrl+MouseWheel)
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.
- view docs menu item opens sphinx URL
- can be searched (even when local)
- uses rna_info module for introspection
- also documents python defined functions and decorator properties (defined in bpy_types.py)
- experemental python file:line references for python operators.
- 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).
- ToolSettings had its id.data set to NULL when taken directly from the context (causing a crash in cases)
- menu for changing vert/edge/face selection now a python menu, removed operator.
- wm.context_set_value(), would really prefer not to have this since it evaluates the value as a python expression however there are no ways to define arrays in PyOperators
Also put a bit more logic for guessing player paths based on my system.
If anyone can make this a bit more clever/bulletproof, please feel free to
get involved in it, it's all python!
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)
- 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.
This is used to force snap on and off when needed.
Also, when transform is not run modal, it will use default values for PET and snap properties (False) instead of scene settings. No need to force them off when calling transform with Exec.
