Notes:
* Made those edits by full checking of py files, so I should have spoted most needed edits, yet it remains quite probable I missed a few ones, we'll fix if/when someone notice it...
* Also made some cleanup "on the road"!
Systematically adding some custom id to template_list using default UI_UL_list class, this one is commoly used more than once in an area, yielding collision issues if they do not have a custom id...
It introduces a new (py-extendable and registrable) RNA type, UIList (roughly similar to Panel one), which currently contains only "standard" list's scroll pos and size (but may be expended to include e.g. some filtering data, etc.). This now makes lists completely independent from Panels!
This UIList has a draw_item callback which allows to customize items' drawing from python, that all addons can now use. Incidentally, this also greatly simplifies the C code of this widget, as we do not code any "special case" here anymore!
To make all this work, other changes were also necessary:
* Now all buttons (uiBut struct) have a 'custom_data' void pointer, used currently to store the uiList struct associated with a given uiLayoutListBox.
* DynamicPaintSurface now exposes a new bool, use_color_preview (readonly), saying whether that surface has some 3D view preview data or not.
* UILayout class has now four new (static) functions, to get the actual icon of any RNA object (important e.g. with materials or textures), and to get an enum item's UI name, description and icon.
* UILayout's label() func now takes an optional 'icon_value' integer parameter, which if not zero will override the 'icon' one (mandatory to use "custom" icons as generated for material/texture/... previews).
Note: not sure whether we should add that one to all UILayout's prop funcs?
Note: will update addons using template list asap.
* Rename Legacy to Standard, it's not being deprecated as far as I know.
* Make option to toggle off Location solving work with Standard.
* Make it converge a bit better in some cases by enforcing a minimum number of
iterations before giving up.
* Move IK solver choice out of bone panel, it's an armature level setting and
should be set there.
* 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.
Restored single triangle for special menus, which still isn't perfect but
probably makes more sense.
Added drawflag bit flags to button, which is currently used to declare, that
button need to have up/down arrows. This is needed because it's tricky to
distinguish if button should have such arrows. For example, ID search buttons
is a simple block button which doesn't directly mean it'll have pop-up menu
and not all buttons which cases pop-up menu to display need to have such
arrows.
So currently only ID selector button is forcing up/down arrows to be displayed,
all the rest buttons now behaves in the same way as it used to be before.
The up/down triangle icon for menus was not drawing when a menu had
an icon; even though space was reserved there. Note: this can only
work now with removing the ugly "down triangle" icon from buttons like
next to the Material list box (button pops up menu with tools).
Looks nicer this way anyway.
As far as I could tell, these were really only still used for "virtual
modifiers", though we really don't use these anymore. Instead, most of the time,
people need to set these settings in armature modifiers directly (these didn't
even get copied over in that case). This was a source of confusion and
redundancy, so removing these now.
This change can be reverted if these were actually of some use out there...
This commit refactors the way that the Motion Paths GUI works. The key problems
this tries to address are:
1) Mode error - Confusion about whether we're dealing with the Object or Pose
level Motion Paths panel
2) Display settings vs Baking Settings
In line with the original design intentions for the 2.5/6 Properties Editor,
I've now split out the actual baking-related settings away from the Properties
Editor:
* Now, when clicking "Calculate Paths" from the toolbar, you'll be prompted with
a dialog to select the start/end frames (and for bones, whether to bake from
heads or tails). This is less confusing than relying on firstly setting the
range via the display range settings (and baking using that), since many people
apparently only used the "around current" mode, and were confused why things
weren't working
* Added a display of the frame ranges of the current baked Motion Path on the
active Object/Bone. This makes it clearer/easier to debug if the path suddenly
starts disappearing after a certain frame.
* Replaced Calculate/Clear Paths in the panels with a single "Update" button if
there's already a baked Motion Path.
Hopefully these changes (in combination with some of the other bugfixes) will
make it more obvious how everything works.
- Make gettext stuff draw-time. so switching between languages
can happens without restart now.
- Added option to translate visible interface (menus, buttons, labels)
and tooltips. Now it's possible to have english UI and localized tooltips.
- Clean-up sources, do not use gettext stuff for things which can be
collected with RNA.
- Fix issues with windows 64bit and ru_RU locale on my desktop
(it was codepage issue).
- Added operator "Get Messages" which generates new text block with
with all strings collected from RNA.
- Changed script for updating blender.pot so now it appends
messages collected from rna to automatically gathered messages.
To update .pot you have to re-generate messages.txt using "Get Messages"
operator and then run update_pot script.
- Clean up old translation stuff which wasn't used and most probably
wouldn't be used.
- Return back "International Fonts" option, so if it's disabled, no
gettext lookups happens on draw.
- Merged read_homefile function back. No need in splitting it.
TODO:
- Custom fonts and font size.
Current font isn't nice at least for russian locale, it's
difficult to read it.
- Put references to messages.txt so gettext can merge translation when
name/description of some property changes.
Thanks Torsten Rupp (rupp) for the patch!
This patch adds the abilities to sort the bone group list in the
properties panel and to move bone groups up/down in the list (similar
like for vertex groups)
ui/ --> startup/bl_ui
op/ --> startup/bl_operators
scripts/startup/ is now the only auto-loading script dir which gives some speedup for blender loading too.
~/.blender/2.56/scripts/startup works for auto-loading scripts too.
