Internally it's still mostly named lamps, though some modules like Cycles
were already calling them lights.

Use 'autopep8 --ignore E721,E722' on our UI code, only minor changes.

* Add horizontal bar at bottom of all non-temp windows, similar to the Top-bar.
* Status-bar is hidden in UI-less fullscreen mode
* Current contents are preliminary and based on T54861:
** Left: Current file-path if needed. "(Modified)" note if file was changed.
** Center: Scene statistics (like in 2.7 Info Editor).
** Right: Progress-bars and reports
* Internally managed as own "STATUSBAR" editor-type (hidden in UI).
* Like with the Top-bar, Status-bar data and SDNA writing is disabled.
* Most changes in low-level screen/area code are to support layout bounds that differ from window bounds.
Design task: T54861

OVERVIEW
* In 2.7 terminology, all layers and groups are now collection datablocks.
* These collections are nestable, linkable, instanceable, overrideable, ..
which opens up new ways to set up scenes and link + override data.
* Viewport/render visibility and selectability are now a part of the collection
and shared across all view layers and linkable.
* View layers define which subset of the scene collection hierarchy is excluded
for each. For many workflows one view layer can be used, these are more of an
advanced feature now.
OUTLINER
* The outliner now has a "View Layer" display mode instead of "Collections",
which can display the collections and/or objects in the view layer.
* In this display mode, collections can be excluded with the right click menu.
These will then be greyed out and their objects will be excluded.
* To view collections not linked to any scene, the "Blender File" display mode
can be used, with the new filtering option to just see Colleciton datablocks.
* The outliner right click menus for collections and objects were reorganized.
* Drag and drop still needs to be improved. Like before, dragging the icon or
text gives different results, we'll unify this later.
LINKING AND OVERRIDES
* Collections can now be linked into the scene without creating an instance,
with the link/append operator or from the collections view in the outliner.
* Collections can get static overrides with the right click menu in the outliner,
but this is rather unreliable and not clearly communicated at the moment.
* We still need to improve the make override operator to turn collection instances
into collections with overrides directly in the scene.
PERFORMANCE
* We tried to make performance not worse than before and improve it in some
cases. The main thing that's still a bit slower is multiple scenes, we have to
change the layer syncing to only updated affected scenes.
* Collections keep a list of their parent collections for faster incremental
updates in syncing and caching.
* View layer bases are now in a object -> base hash to avoid quadratic time
lookups internally and in API functions like visible_get().
VERSIONING
* Compatibility with 2.7 files should be improved due to the new visibility
controls. Of course users may not want to set up their scenes differently
now to avoid having separate layers and groups.
* Compatibility with 2.8 is mostly there, and was tested on Eevee demo and Hero
files. There's a few things which are know to be not quite compatible, like
nested layer collections inside groups.
* The versioning code for 2.8 files is quite complicated, and isolated behind
#ifdef so it can be removed at the end of the release cycle.
KNOWN ISSUES
* The G-key group operators in the 3D viewport were left mostly as is, they
need to be modified still to fit better.
* Same for the groups panel in the object properties. This needs to be updated
still, or perhaps replaced by something better.
* Collections must all have a unique name. Less restrictive namespacing is to
be done later, we'll have to see how important this is as all objects within
the collections must also have a unique name anyway.
* Full scene copy and delete scene are exactly doing the right thing yet.

== Main Features/Changes for Users
* Add horizontal bar at top of all non-temp windows, consisting out of two horizontal sub-bars.
* Upper sub-bar contains global menus (File, Render, etc.), tabs for workspaces and scene selector.
* Lower sub-bar contains object mode selector, screen-layout and render-layer selector. Later operator and/or tool settings will be placed here.
* Individual sections of the topbar are individually scrollable.
* Workspace tabs can be double- or ctrl-clicked for renaming and contain 'x' icon for deleting.
* Top-bar should scale nicely with DPI.
* The lower half of the top-bar can be hided by dragging the lower top-bar edge up. Better hiding options are planned (e.g. hide in fullscreen modes).
* Info editors at the top of the window and using the full window width with be replaced by the top-bar.
* In fullscreen modes, no more info editor is added on top, the top-bar replaces it.
== Technical Features/Changes
* Adds initial support for global areas
A global area is part of the window, not part of the regular screen-layout.
I've added a macro iterator to iterate over both, global and screen-layout level areas. When iterating over areas, from now on developers should always consider if they have to include global areas.
* Adds a TOPBAR editor type
The editor type is hidden in the UI editor type menu.
* Adds a variation of the ID template to display IDs as tab buttons (template_ID_tabs in BPY)
* Does various changes to RNA button creation code to improve their appearance in the horizontal top-bar.
* Adds support for dynamically sized regions. That is, regions that scale automatically to the layout bounds.
The code for this is currently a big hack (it's based on drawing the UI multiple times). This should definitely be improved.
* Adds a template for displaying operator properties optimized for the top-bar. This will probably change a lot still and is in fact disabled in code.
Since the final top-bar design depends a lot on other 2.8 designs (mainly tool-system and workspaces), we decided to not show the operator or tool settings in the top-bar for now. That means most of the lower sub-bar is empty for the time being.
NOTE: Top-bar or global area data is not written to files or SDNA. They are simply added to the window when opening Blender or reading a file. This allows us doing changes to the top-bar without having to care for compatibility.
== ToDo's
It's a bit hard to predict all the ToDo's here are the known main ones:
* Add options for the new active-tool system and for operator redo to the topbar.
* Automatically hide the top-bar in fullscreen modes.
* General visual polish.
* Top-bar drag & drop support (WIP in temp-tab_drag_drop).
* Improve dynamic regions (should also fix some layout glitches).
* Make internal terminology consistent.
* Enable topbar file writing once design is more advanced.
* Address TODO's and XXX's in code :)
Thanks @brecht for the review! And @sergey for the complaining ;)

Folders removed entirely:
* //extern/recastnavigation
* //intern/decklink
* //intern/moto
* //source/blender/editors/space_logic
* //source/blenderplayer
* //source/gameengine
This includes DNA data and any reference to the BGE code in Blender itself.
We are bumping the subversion.
Pending tasks:
* Tile/clamp code in image editor draw code.
* Viewport drawing code (so much of this will go away because of BI removal
that we can wait until then to remove this.

The RenderResult struct still has a listbase of RenderLayer, but that's ok
since this is strictly for rendering.
* Subversion bump (to 2.80.2)
* DNA low level doversion (renames) - only for .blend created since 2.80 started
Note: We can't use DNA_struct_elem_find or get file version in init_structDNA,
so we are manually iterating over the array of the SDNA elements instead.
Note 2: This doversion change with renames can be reverted in a few months. But
so far it's required for 2.8 files created between October 2016 and now.

The tool-system it's self is primitive and may be changed.
Adding to 2.8 to develop operators and manipulators as tools.
Currently this is exposed in the toolbar, collapsed by default.
Work-flow remains unchanged if you don't change the active tool.
Placing the 3D cursor is now a Click instead of a Press event,
this allows tweak events to be mapped to tools such as border select,
keeping click for 3D cursor placement when selection tools are set.

Engine is not stored in WorkSpaces. That defines the "context" engine, which
is used for the entire UI.
The engine used for the poll of nodes (add node menu, new nodes when "Use Nodes")
is obtained from context.
Introduce a ViewRender struct for viewport settings that are defined for
workspaces and scene. This struct will be populated with the hand-picked
settings that can be defined per workspace as per the 2.8 design.
* use_scene_settings
* properties editor: workshop + organize context path
Use Scene Settings
==================
For viewport drawing, Workspaces have an option to use the Scene render
settings (F12) instead of the viewport settings.
This way users can quickly preview the final render settings, engine and
View Layer. This will affect all the editors in that workspace, and it will be
clearly indicated in the top-bar.
Properties Editor: Add Workspace and organize context path
==========================================================
We now have the properties of:
Scene, Scene > Layer, Scene > World, Workspace
[Scene | Workspace] > Render Layer > Object
[Scene | Workspace] > Render Layer > Object > Data

Design Documents
----------------
* https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.8/Source/Layers
* https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.8/Source/DataDesignRevised
User Commit Log
---------------
* New Layer and Collection system to replace render layers and viewport layers.
* A layer is a set of collections of objects (and their drawing options) required for specific tasks.
* A collection is a set of objects, equivalent of the old layers in Blender. A collection can be shared across multiple layers.
* All Scenes have a master collection that all other collections are children of.
* New collection "context" tab (in Properties Editor)
* New temporary viewport "collections" panel to control per-collection
visibility
Missing User Features
---------------------
* Collection "Filter"
Option to add objects based on their names
* Collection Manager operators
The existing buttons are placeholders
* Collection Manager drawing
The editor main region is empty
* Collection Override
* Per-Collection engine settings
This will come as a separate commit, as part of the clay-engine branch
Dev Commit Log
--------------
* New DNA file (DNA_layer_types.h) with the new structs
We are replacing Base by a new extended Base while keeping it backward
compatible with some legacy settings (i.e., lay, flag_legacy).
Renamed all Base to BaseLegacy to make it clear the areas of code that
still need to be converted
Note: manual changes were required on - deg_builder_nodes.h, rna_object.c, KX_Light.cpp
* Unittesting for main syncronization requirements
- read, write, add/copy/remove objects, copy scene, collection
link/unlinking, context)
* New Editor: Collection Manager
Based on patch by Julian Eisel
This is extracted from the layer-manager branch. With the following changes:
- Renamed references of layer manager to collections manager
- I doesn't include the editors/space_collections/ draw and util files
- The drawing code itself will be implemented separately by Julian
* Base / Object:
A little note about them. Original Blender code would try to keep them
in sync through the code, juggling flags back and forth. This will now
be handled by Depsgraph, keeping Object and Bases more separated
throughout the non-rendering code.
Scene.base is being cleared in doversion, and the old viewport drawing
code was poorly converted to use the new bases while the new viewport
code doesn't get merged and replace the old one.

This reverts commit 5aa19be91263a249ffae75573e3b32f24269d890 and b4a721af694817fa921b119df83d33ede7d7fed0.
Due to postponement of particle system rewrite it was decided to put particle code
back into the 2.8 branch for the time being.

There are a lot of cases here where deciding for removal is a bit tricky.
Many features have options for "use_particles" and similar settings. Only
features which actually store a particle object reference or work on actual
particle data have been removed.

Currently, code just checks whether a text-edited button uses a given icon (VIEWZOOM) to decide to apply changes on each typed char.
This patch adds a propper button flag (UI_BUT_TEXTEDIT_UPDATE) and a dedicated RNA flag (PROP_TEXTEDIT_UPDATE) for that.
It's also now usable not only for text buttons, but also for example for num buttons when in 'text edit' mode, etc.
It also fixes an actual bug, which is for text properties, in 'immediate' mode, hitting escape would not restore org value, because `ui_apply_but_TEX()` would set its orgstr to NULL on first call (giving it to `but->rename_orig` instead of copying it).
Note no change in behavior is expected from user POV.
Update for addons using that 'VIEWZOOM' icon 'feature' will follow (if any).

For initial discussion see T38371
This commit organized panels for image editor to new tab categories dependent
on the image editor mode:
View Mode:
Tools - contains UV tools (currently only transform and UV Sculpting)
Scopes - contains scopes
Grease Pencil - contains Grease Pencil operators
Paint Mode:
Tools - contains brush options
Scopes - as above
Grease Pencil - as above
Mask Mode
Mask - contains mask tools
Scopes - as above
Grease Pencil - as above
Grease Pencil panel/tab now includes operators, not view options which have been
moved to the UI region on the right.
To make this work better, image editor toolbar now is of type TOOLS instead
of PREVIEW as was the case previously. A nice version patch makes sure all
works predictably, but opening newer files with older blender executables
could backfire.
This commit does not address which UV Tools will be included in the
Tools tab for the view mode, but does include some basic tools (transform)
and provides a class to inherit from to avoid conflicts with UV Sculpting.

Thanks to Brecht for the reviews. :)
This commit adds a show/hide extension below each uiList, containing by default an option to filter and/or reorder items by name (and to reverse those filtering and reordering).
Each derived uiList class in Python can define more specific filtering by implementing callbacks: the draw_filter() function to draw options in UI, and the filter_items() function to effectively filter/reorder items.
Note: the advanced options for vgroups shown as "proof od concept" in patches do not go in trunk for now, we have to find a better way to get those vgroups info for UI code, we can't afford to loop over each vertex here!
And doc (release notes and uiList example) is still to be updated, will do this in next days.

The addons panel draw function calls addon_utils.modules() which in turn retrieves a list of fake modules from the script paths every time. This can become costly when network paths are included for
addons. Solution is to put the scanning process into a dedicated "refresh" function and disable it in frequently called draw and filter functions, i.e. in these cases the cached addons_fake_modules list
will be used instead.
Note that this may lead to invalid addon lists if script paths are changed (which is not working 100% without restart anyway according to Campbell). For this there is now a "Refresh" operator button in
the addons preferences. If necessary and feasible such forced refreshes can be added later too.
|
|
import the module and call draw_keymaps().
- making this change now because some addons developers are interested in showing keymap UI in their addons prefs and using the class involved making a fake class instance which isnt needed.
|

still using "ugly" old UI code.
It removes buttons_header.c file, adds a (small) space_properties.py one, with a PROPERTIES_HT_header class, which simply uses the RNA enum to draw the context buttons.
It also fixes that enum, btw, it always featured all contexts, which means you could (try to!) set through RNA invalid contexts...
Thanks to brecht and dingto for the reviews.

The code in this file is NOT restricted to use in object context only. Renaming

draw_item *is* optional (it then uses default C function), even though there is not much sense to register a class without it, except for our default UI_UL_list!

Constraints connect two rigid bodies.
Depending on which constraint is used different degrees of freedom
are limited, e.g. a hinge constraint only allows the objects to rotate
around a common axis.
Constraints are implemented as individual objects and bahave similar to
rigid bodies in terms of adding/removing/validating.
The position and orientation of the constraint object is the pivot point
of the constraint.
Constraints have their own group in the rigid body world.
To make connecting rigid bodies easier, there is a "Connect" operator that
creates an empty objects with a rigid body constraint connecting the selected
objects to active.
Currently the following constraints are implemented:
* Fixed
* Point
* Hinge
* Slider
* Piston
* Generic
Note: constraint limits aren't animatable yet).
|
|
Add operators to add/remove rigid body world and objects.
Add UI scripts.
The rigid body simulation works on scene level and overrides the
position/orientation of rigid bodies when active.
It does not deform meshes or generate data so there is no modifier.
Usage:
* Add rigid body world in the scene tab
* Create a group
* Add objects to the group
* Assign group to the rigid body world
* Play animation
For convenience the rigid body tools operators in the tools panel of the 3d view
will add a world, group and add objects to the group automatically so you only have
to press one button to add/remove rigid bodies to the simulation.
