setting sys.stdin to None is done so python wont lock blender when it tries to read from the input. - help() from the console does this.
Running blender with -d keeps the stdin so python debugging can work. add info in the help message about this.
eventually it might be best to replace sys.stdin with our own object which interacts with the console but this is not trivial.
image.py has a function image_editor_guess(), please test on windows and mac. (using 'startfile' and 'open')
this is only used when the image editor is not set.
* I put it under General->System. Not sure is the better place for it though (space_userpref.py)
** also: creator.c fix to avoid autoplay of games when scripts are disabled.
- new mode for projecting an image with the view matrix saved in the image id-properties rather then using the camera matrix.
- operator to screenshot the view and create a new image with the view matrix stored in the image.
these will be used for better re-project integration and are not immediately very useful.
It's (still) not working since the pool in the operator will not allow this operator to run without context.
For the window/area/screen has to be created somewhere (maybe in WM_init_game ).
I have no idea on what should be done to initialize it here, so if anyone knows how to proceed, please help here.
* side note: should we also have it as a command line option?
Reports (i.e. 'info' or 'errors') are now shown in the info header in place of the scene statistics if the last executed operator had some, with this info disappearing again once another operator is run (to show scene statistics again).
For example, this means that info such as the the number of verts merged, or whether a Keying Set successfully inserted keyframes, etc. is now shown again somewhere, and that this is done in a non-blocking manner.
The current implementation is still a bit crude (i.e. lacking fancy polish), but is at least barebones functional. The todos...
* When more than 1 report message is generated by the last operator, there is currently a display of the number of reports. In future, it would be nice to be able to add a button beside this or make the label clickable with appropriate text indicating this (commented out atm) to show popup menu of all the reports...
* There could probably be some kind of coloured backdrop behind the text. Currently using standard box, but that has padding problems, and lacks visual interest.
* Timer based fade out/disappear?
* joined filename and directory to single rna entry for movie and sound sequence
* PROP_FILENAME was missing in makesrna
* made seq->strip->data->name PROP_FILENAME rather than PROP_FILEPATH for the complete path
* also made seq->strip->data->name read only
Missing still: update of sequence length, start end frame etc..
rename image.save() --> image.save_render() because it uses render settings for saving.
added image.save() which is like pressing save in the image view, saving to the images path and removing the dirty flag.
rename BKE_get_image_export_path() to BKE_rebase_path() and take a filename arg rather then an image.
obj export file copy was also not working because of a missing import.
* Effectors now work with hair dynamics.
* Hair dynamics has a new "Collider Friction" parameter that works similarly to internal friction except now all collision objects effect the hair velocity. Useful for quick'n'dirty interaction with objects as the calculations are really fast, but doesn't really take away the need for proper hair-object collisions.
2.4x port by Ivo Grigull (loolarge)
from the tracker:
It should be working ok, but it does not have all options that the old script had. You can only specify the start frame
where to insert the animation, but not skip frames for have a different fps.
However, like the old script this will bloat the memory a bit, at some later point i would like to write a script that
only reads the current frame from the file when you move the timeline.
