* Patch [#33073] Remove Extra Menu Level from Object Parent and Track
* Did not commit the icon changes here, separator line should be sufficient.
Patch by Harley Acheson, thanks!
- Rename 'mesh.select_nth' operator menu item 'Every N Number of Verts' to 'Checker Deselect',
since its not just de-selecting verts (works on edges and faces too) and the term 'checker' gives a better description of the result.
- Rename 'mesh.select_by_number_vertices' to 'mesh.select_face_by_sides', since this is a face selection tool, which wasnt obvious from its name.
also remove dissolve by type menu since the option has been removed from the operator and was giving an error.
Added option to display object's diffuse color multiplied by sculpting
mask. This option could be found in Options panel of toolshelf when in
sculpting mode.
Thanks to Nicholas and Brecht for reviewing the patch!
This makes it possible to do a border render inside a viewport even
when not looking through the camera.
Render border could be defined by Ctrl-B shortcut (works for both
camera render border and viewport render border).
Camera render border could still be defined using Shift-B (so no
muscule memory would be broken). Currently used a special flag of
operator to do this, otherwise you'll need to either two operators
with different poll callback or it could go into conflict with a
border zoom,
Border render of a viewport could be enabled/disabled in View
panel using "Render Border" option.
* The symmetrize operation makes the input mesh elements symmetrical,
but unlike mirroring it only copies in one direction. The edges and
faces that cross the plane of symmetry are split as needed to
enforce symmetry.
* The symmetrize operator can be controlled with the "direction"
property, which combines the choices of symmetry plane and
positive-negative/negative-positive. The enum for this is
BMO_SymmDirection.
* Added menu items in the top-level Mesh menu and the WKEY specials
menu.

The Ctrl-G menu for managing Bone Groups has always been a bit clunky,
especially when compared to the Hooks menu (Ctrl-H). This was because the old
menu was more data-orientated (Bone Group Management, Membership to these
groups) whereas this new arrangement should be a bit more task-orientated (Add
to new group, Add to active group, Remove from all groups, Remove active group).
Alt+V will fill the area inbetween the ripped faces - a bit like extrude.
faces are flipped to match existing geometry and customdata (uv, vcols etc) is copied from surrounding geometry too.
This operator (Ctrl-F) allows you to flip the lattice coordinates without
inverting the normals of meshes deformed by the lattice (or the lattice's
deformation space for that matter). Unlike the traditional mirror tool, this
tool is aware of the fact that the vertex order for lattice control points
matters, and that simply mirroring the coordinates will only cause the lattice
to have an inverted deform along a particular axis (i.e. it will be scaling by a
negative scaling factor along that axis).
The problems (as I discovered the other day) with having such an inverted
deformation space are that:
- the normals of meshes/objects inside that will be incorrect/flipped (and will
disappear in GLSL shading mode for instance)
- transforming objects deformed by the lattices will become really tricky and
counter-intuitive (e.g. rotate in opposite direction by asymmetric amounts to
get desired result)
- it is not always immediately obvious that problems have occurred
Specific use cases this operator is meant to solve:
1) You've created a lattice-based deformer for one cartoonish eye. Now you want
to make the second eye, but want to save some time crafting that basic shape
again but mirrored.
2) You've got an even more finely crafted setup for stretchy-rigs, and now need
to apply it to other parts of the rig.
Notes:
* I've implemented a separate operator for this vs extending/patching mirror
transform tool as it's easier to implement this way, but also because there are
still some cases where the old mirroring seems valid (i.e. you explicitly want
these sort of distortion effects).
* Currently this doesn't take selections into account, as it doesn't seem useful
to do so.

Usage: In weight paint mode, select the mesh to have its weights culled. Click on "Limit Weights" button. A sub-panel will appear "Limit Number of Vertex Weights" with a slider field "Limit" which you can set to the appropriate level. The default level is 4, and it gets executed upon pressing "Limit Weights" so you will need to do an "undo" if your max bone limit is above 4. The checkbox "All Deform Weights" will consider all vertex weights, not just bone deform weights.
* Code cleanup, removed unneeded code.
* Style cleanup, don't break lines to early
(unless marked as pep8-80 or pep8-120 compliant)
* Keep 1 line after layout declaration empty.
Have to use a ugly hack, as for pose bones, rotscale transform matrix is not always the same as translate one... :/
Adresses feature request [#30979] snapping: "align rotation with the snapping target" and pose-mode.
* Changed Duplicate and Exture Operator fpr Curves/Surfaces to Duplicate/Extrude and Move, like for Mesh objects, for consistency. This is also consistent with Shift+D and E shortcut.
This fixes [#31429] Curve menu polish.
* Fixed a wrong tooltip for metaball duplication.
* Add CTRL+IKEY to invert the mask.
* Add ALT+MKEY to clear the mask.
* Change the 'Hide' menu in sculpt mode to 'Hide/Mask', adds entires
for clearing, filling, and inverting the mask, as well as hiding
masked regions.
Now only one operator. Same options for vertices, edges and faces (so adds edges sorting, and some options to vertices sorting).
Face sorting should behave as previously. However, XSortVerts won’t pack anymore selected vertices at the begining of the vert array (as it used to), if you want such behavior you’ll have to first run SortElements with Selected action.
Also added bug ref I forgot in r46354 (armature.c).
for the contexts they appeared in
The VIEW3D_MT_transform menu was being used everywhere, although not all the
operators there applied to the current mode (e.g. the pivot point, animated
transforms to deltas, and a few others were Object-mode only). Split off the
offending parts into separate menus for the specific modes, and made these
extend the basic menu type.
- makes wireframe from faces.
- options similar to inset (even offset, relative scale)
- copies face settings and loops (uvs, vcolors)
- optionally replaces the existing geometry.
