This commit adds support for `bl_description` and python docstrings for panels.
This is useful for pop-over panel types so they can have a label and description.
This commit also includes an example use case.

Updates the descriptions and labels for outliner sync in the properties
editor popover to be more clear.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D10010
|
|
This adds a popover to the properties editor. Currently the only setting
is for controlling outliner to properties syncing.
Because we cannot define a perfect heuristic to determine when
properties editors should change tabs based on outliner icon selection,
we need an option to enable or disable this behavior per properties
editor.
There are 3 options for controlling the syncing. Auto uses the heuristic
to only allow tab switching when a properties editor and outliner share
a border. On and off enable and disable syncing respectively.

For some reason the layout code doesn't center the search button properly. Add
a blank icon button to add some padding, dynamically resized as the region size
changes. This is quite finicky and not at all perfect. But it makes the search
button look far less off-place.
|
|
The pin button should be next to the data-path, which is what it belongs to.
Note that this makes the placement of the search button in the header look
quite off. That is because it's centered to the absolute header width, not the
width of the main region (which is smaller because of the tab region on the
left).
Technically it's correct that way, visually it looks wrong. This will be
addressed in a followup commit.

This patch enables property search for all tabs in the property editor.
To make interaction faster, if the editor's current tab doesn't have a
result, the current tab changes to the next tab that has a match.
This patch implements basic code that only searches panels.
While we could run the existing "single tab" property search for every
tab, that would also do everything else related to the layout pass,
which would be less efficient, and maybe more complicated to maintain.
The search match status for every current tab of the property editor is
stored in a runtime bitfield and them displayed later by dimming icons
in the tab selector panel to the left. Using `BLI_bitmap` properly in
the runtime struct required moving it to `buttons_intern.h` and
adding a small API to access the search filter instead.
To make sure the editor isn't influenced by anything that happens while
building the layout for other tabs, most of the context is duplicated
and the new search is run in the duplicated editor.
Note that the tool settings tab works slightly different than the other
tabs, so I've disabled searching it for this commit. That would be a
relatively simple improvement, but would just require a bit of
refactoring of existing code.

This adds a search bar to the properties editor. The full search for
every tab isn't included in this patch, but the interaction with
panels, searching behavior, UI, region level, and DNA changes are
included here.
The block-level search works by iterating over the block's button
groups and checking whether they match the search. If they do, they
are tagged with a flag, and the block's panel is tagged too. For
every update (text edit), the panel's expansion is set to whether
the panel has a result or not. The search also checks for matching
strings inside enums and in panel labels.
One complication to this that isn't immediately apparent is that
closed panel's subpanels have to be searched too. This adds some
complexity to the area-level panel layout code.
Possible Future Improvements:
- Use the new fuzzy search in BLI
- Reset panels to their expansion before the search started if
the user escape out of the text box.
- Open all child panels of a panel with expansion.

The context path "breadcrumbs" used to be in a panel in 2.79.
Although they look a bit better in the header, there isn't enough
space for them with the property search field in the header as well.
Maybe there will be another solution in the long term to fit both
the search field and this panel in the header, but for now, this
commit moves these labels back to a header-less panel.

If it's members need to be aligned the template can handle it.

Moves the Properties editor context switching to a vertical tabs region.
Design Task: T54951
Differential Revison: D3840
The tabs are regular widgets, unlike the 'old' toolshelf tabs. This means they
give mouse hover feedback, have tooltips, support the right-click menu, etc.
Also, when vertical screen space gets tight, the tabs can be scrolled, they
don't shrink like the toolshelf ones.
The tab region is slightly larger than the header. The tabs are scaled up
accordingly. This makes them nicely readable.
The header is quite empty now. As shown in T54951, we wanted to have a search
button there. This should be added next.
Implementation Notes:
* Added a new region type, RGN_TYPE_NAVIGATION.
* Having the tabs in a separate region allows scrolling of the tab-bar, unlike
the toolshelf tabs. We might want to remove the scrollbars though.
* Added a new region flag RGN_FLAG_PREFSIZE_OR_HIDDEN, to ensure the tab region
is either hidden or has a fixed size.
* Added some additional flags to support fine-tuning the layout in panel and
layout code.
* Bumps subversion.

We've decieded to use tools context in properties editor.

This currently shows panels that were in the 2.79 3D view toolbar
which are now popovers.
In some cases it's useful for these to stay open.
This commit adds a space type to do this.
Note this is currently empty in object mode.

In preparation for it being removed, see: T47811

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.
