Code to support it was lying around for long already, but not controlled by UI nicely.
Now you have in user preferences "System" tab an option to set it.
NOTE:
- it only works saving as User startup.blend, and restart Blender.
- your system should support it, no check for it is visible in UI
- tested only on iMac OSX 10.7

This commit allows you to set the RGB <-> XYZ axis colours used for things like
the mini axis indicator, grid axis indicators, manipulators, transform
constraint indicators, F-Curves (when using XYZ to RGB colouring option), and
perhaps something else I've missed. Previously, these places all used hardcoded
defines (220 * i/j/k), but the readability of these colours was often quite
poor, especially when used with certain themes.
The settings for these colours can be found under the "User Interface" section
of the themes (i.e. same set of colours is used across editors). I could have
made these per editor, but since it's unlikely that these will need to be too
different across editors in practice (+ being easier to version patch), they are
stored under the UI section.
* Separated bookmarks managed by the OS (System Bookmarks) and bookmarks managed by Blender (Bookmarks).
* Added user pref to hide (or show) system bookmarks to allow users doing a video tutorial for example to hide their private system bookmarks
This feature should help especially MAC users who reported excessively long list of bookmarks which were added to Blender.
By default, this is enabled, so that newbie users who are most likely to be
caught short by this will get the benefits of this option, while seasoned
animators are likely to know where to go to turn things off (i.e. the scratch-
an-itch urge is quite a powerful motivating force...)
from special NDOF menu, added them in user preferences as well now. Also made it do
proper version patch for conversion from old user preferences, and changed turntable
choice from a boolean to enum for consistency.
Additional changes:
- Option to the ndof menu letting you pick turntable/trackball independently
of the mouse viewport navigation style
- Option to change the rotation sensitivity separate from the panning
Holding shift + moving the ndof does just as before locking it to panning
Holding ctrl + moving will lock it to only rotation
Patch by Fredrik Hansson, thanks!
Reviewed by self and Mike Erwin.
* 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.
Handle these 2 kinds of script paths
* user script path: ~/.blender/scripts OR $BLENDER_USER_SCRIPTS
* pref script path: always bpy.context.user_preferences.filepaths.script_directory
now both are returned by bpy.utils.script_paths()
This commit reshapes a bit runtime button info getter, by adding a new uiButGetStrInfo() which accepts a variable number of uiStringInfo parameters, and tries to fill them with the requested strings, for the given button (label, tip, context, RNA identifier, keymap, etc.). Currently used mostly by existing ui_tooltip_create(), and new UI_OT_edittranslation_init operator.
It also adds a few getters (to get RNA i18n context, and current language iso code).
Finally, it adds to C operators needed for the py ui_translation addon:
*UI_OT_edittranslation_init, which gathers requested data and launch the py operator.
*UI_OT_reloadtranslation, which forces a full reload of the whole UI translation (including rechecking the directory containing mo files).
For the first operator to work, it also adds a new user preferences path: i18n_branches_directory, to point to the /branch part of a bf-translation checkout.
* Remove RNA, Operator and UI for Texture and Sequence plugins.
Since 2.5x no effort has been done to bring that back, so there is simply no reason in keeping that code and the UI for that ;-)
* Low Level code still exists and is unchanged.
from luke frisken (lfrisken), with some edits.
some tooltip colors weren't visible with different backgrounds, now the base tooltip color is used and tinted for python/alert/shortcuts etc. the tint colors are still hard coded.
Graph Editor
Under User Preferences -> Editing, there's a new setting "F-Curve Visibility"
which controls the how much F-Curves blend in with the background colour.
Increasing this value makes F-Curves stand out more, at the expense of making it
less obvious which F-Curve is active.
Adds conformation on exit for windows. Needs to be enabled in user perf.
Tried to edit blender.exe.manifest for more modern dialog look, but didn't work out.
=========================
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).
- missing attributes are ignored and don't error out like they would on a script when the API changes.
- don't run code (secure to run from untrusted sources).
use xml presets for themes.
The rendering device is now set in User Preferences > System, where you can
choose between OpenCL/CUDA and devices. Per scene you can then still choose
to use CPU or GPU rendering.
Load balancing still needs to be improved, now it just splits the entire
render in two, that will be done in a separate commit.
Moved tweak threshold value to user preferences
This threshold might be needed to be tweaked when working with tables, i.e.
to prevent tap+slight movement be treated as tweak event.

This patch adds the individual invert options for the turntable mode too. In turntable mode there are only the rotate and roll and no tilt axis to invert.
