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.
This commit:
* Removes the Wire and Color options from the UI for all object types but meshes, curves/surfaces/texts, and metas.
* Adds a basic bounding box drawing (and computing) for armatures.
(also fixes special request from Ian for Mango)
Added operator to update actual content length of all selected strips.
Can be useful for scenes and movies as well after doing making changes to
scene/movie.
Can be improved further to deal better with cases when strip has got effect
and it's get reshuffled because of overlapping after changing it's length.
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.
this report exposed multiple bugs in blender when using a non utf8 compatible home directory.
- bpy.utils.script_paths() would crash when homedir wasn't utf8 (reported bug)
- PyC_DefaultNameSpace() - would raise an error when running when __file__ was non utf8.
- preset filepath property was not set to accept non utf8.
- bpy.paths.display_name would raise an error on non utf8 paths, (used for preset draw)
This adds movieclip input support to the sequencer, thereby making
undistorted and stabilized footage available without a seperate render step.
Also: removes some old cruft code from the sequencer:
* new_tstripdata wasn't used anymore
* StripElems were allocated for SCENE strips on full length, wasting memory
Added a comment, that hopefully makes things a little bit clearer:
StripElems are *only* usefull for MOVIE + IMAGE strips for all other strip
types one can set this pointer to NULL. (If that should cause otherwise
problems, then the code that doesn't check for NULL is to blame!)
- More angular velocity modes to support creative effects.
- Renamed "Initial Rotation" to "Initial Orientation" to better reflect the functionality
- Renamed "Spin" angular velocity mode to "Velocity".
- Organized the rotation panel a bit better.
- Also some better names and tooltips for the different rotation values.
- Even option (like solidify even option)
- Relative option (insets based on lengths of surrounding edges)
TODO: merge tares when 2+ face corners meet but don't form a contiguous region.
- The main problem was that in order to be accurate all particle
rotations have to be calculated incrementally so the only working
solution is to store rotations to the point cache (previously
this was only done for dynamic rotations). This can nearly double
the point cache size so it's not ideal to have this as a default
as in many cases you don't care about particle rotations.
- Particle rotation panel now has a new "enable" checkbox that
enables rotation calculations and the storing of rotations to
point cache.
- Old files will have rotations enabled via do_versions so that in
the worst case old files will only get bigger point caches, but no
sudden loss of particle rotations.
Most of the tool code was already in place, only significant
functionality change is that anchored stroke works now.
TODO:
* Gave it a new icon, but could use a better one
* Default .blend should have a clay strips brush
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.
this is no big improvement but at least its not a regression.
using the new operator for the bevel modifier can be enabled again be uncommenting a define.
sphinx_doc_gen.sh broke building docs -
- examples/ svn directory was being removed since it assumed an out-of-source build.
- include references somehow stopped working (didnt find why).
also fixed an unrelated error with building docs in object_utils.py
- Reset rotation value when toggling Align to View property
which correctly re-alignes object on continuous property
toggling and fixes issue
#30510: [2.62] Add Mesh - Torus - "Align to View" cannot be switched back when toggling off
- Moves all generic object-add properties into a helper function
which might be easily re-used.
World Context:
* Made world id block wider
* Don't show texture user when Cycles engine is used
Other:
* Change Dopesheet > DopeSheet in User Preferences Theme section for consistency.
* Hide Modifier and Contraint Panel header, this gives a bit space.
As it's the only panel in these context tabs it does not make sense to close them anyways.
*Add a new idname to keyingsets, keeping name as label-only (using same string for both made lookup fail when using i18n other than english, as it tried to compare an untranslated static string id against a translated RNA name). Also adding a description string (can be helpful with custom keyingsets, imho).
*Fixed a few other bugs related to that area (namely, you can’t deselect current keyingset from the shift-ctrl-alt-I popup menu, and insert/delete key ops were using a rather strange way to get chosen custom keyingset…).
*Fixed UI code so that it always uses (RNA) enum, and simplified menu-creation code.
It was indeed not clear at all what that label-less check box does.
Move it to next row (to prevent fluid type menu be too narrow) and
use label default for it.
Also don't create second column which is empty for outflow fluid type.
Made Set Floor a bit more general and name it Set Plane which defines
orientation from 3 selected tracks and makes them belong to specified
plane (wall or floor).
we cant ensure buildinfo to have utf8 encoding so access it as bytes via python - a different workaround then this patch made.
also use C style string formatting for sys_info.py
- spelling - turns out we had tessellation spelt wrong all over.
- use \directive for doxy (not @directive)
- remove BLI_sparsemap.h - was from bmesh merge IIRC but entire file commented and not used.
