This is useful when you want visible + editable objects, but you don't
want to require the items to be selected as well.

This merge-commit brings in a number of new features and workflow/UI improvements for
working with Grease Pencil. While these were originally targetted at improving
the workflow for creating 3D storyboards in Blender using the Grease Pencil,
many of these changes should also prove useful in other workflows too.
The main highlights here are:
1) It is now possible to edit Grease Pencil strokes
- Use D Tab, or toggle the "Enable Editing" toggles in the Toolbar/Properties regions
to enter "Stroke Edit Mode". In this mode, many common editing tools will
operate on Grease Pencil stroke points instead.
- Tools implemented include Select, Select All/Border/Circle/Linked/More/Less,
Grab, Rotate, Scale, Bend, Shear, To Sphere, Mirror, Duplicate, Delete.
- Proportional Editing works when using the transform tools
2) Grease Pencil stroke settings can now be animated
NOTE: Currently drivers don't work, but if time allows, this may still be
added before the release.
3) Strokes can be drawn with "filled" interiors, using a separate set of
colour/opacity settings to the ones used for the lines themselves.
This makes use of OpenGL filled polys, which has the limitation of only
being able to fill convex shapes. Some artifacts may be visible on concave
shapes (e.g. pacman's mouth will be overdrawn)
4) "Volumetric Strokes" - An alternative drawing technique for stroke drawing
has been added which draws strokes as a series of screen-aligned discs.
While this was originally a partial experimental technique at getting better
quality 3D lines, the effects possible using this technique were interesting
enough to warrant making this a dedicated feature. Best results when partial
opacity and large stroke widths are used.
5) Improved Onion Skinning Support
- Different colours can be selected for the before/after ghosts. To do so,
enable the "colour wheel" toggle beside the Onion Skinning toggle, and set
the colours accordingly.
- Different numbers of ghosts can be shown before/after the current frame
6) Grease Pencil datablocks are now attached to the scene by default instead of
the active object.
- For a long time, the object-attachment has proved to be quite problematic
for users to keep track of. Now that this is done at scene level, it is
easier for most users to use.
- An exception for old files (and for any addons which may benefit from object
attachment instead), is that if the active object has a Grease Pencil datablock,
that will be used instead.
- It is not currently possible to choose object-attachment from the UI, but
it is simple to do this from the console instead, by doing:
context.active_object.grease_pencil = bpy.data.grease_pencil["blah"]
7) Various UI Cleanups
- The layers UI has been cleaned up to use a list instead of the nested-panels
design. Apart from saving space, this is also much nicer to look at now.
- The UI code is now all defined in Python. To support this, it has been necessary
to add some new context properties to make it easier to access these settings.
e.g. "gpencil_data" for the datablock
"active_gpencil_layer" and "active_gpencil_frame" for active data,
"editable_gpencil_strokes" for the strokes that can be edited
- The "stroke placement/alignment" settings (previously "Drawing Settings" at the
bottom of the Grease Pencil panel in the Properties Region) is now located in
the toolbar. These were more toolsettings than properties for how GPencil got drawn.
- "Use Sketching Sessions" has been renamed "Continuous Drawing", as per a
suggestion for an earlier discussion on developer.blender.org
- By default, the painting operator will wait for a mouse button to be pressed
before it starts creating the stroke. This is to make it easier to include
this operator in various toolbars/menus/etc. To get it immediately starting
(as when you hold down DKEy to draw), set "wait_for_input" to False.
- GPencil Layers can be rearranged in the "Grease Pencil" mode of the Action Editor
- Toolbar panels have been added to all the other editors which support these.
8) Pie menus for quick-access to tools
A set of experimental pie menus has been included for quick access to many
tools and settings. It is not necessary to use these to get things done,
but they have been designed to help make certain common tasks easier.
- Ctrl-D = The main pie menu. Reveals tools in a context sensitive and
spatially stable manner.
- D Q = "Quick Settings" pie. This allows quick access to the active
layer's settings. Notably, colours, thickness, and turning
onion skinning on/off.

The function is to retrieve the active line style ID datablock from a scene and
there is nothing related to bContext.

- Include RNA properties when checking for matches.
- Don't include the context's property store (these are normally set by the UI code and not accessible by a script author)
Note: added CTX_data_dir_get_ex() which has options for returning different members from the context.

When adding extra context data in a layout using uiLayoutSetContextPointer, this info was not inherited by popup menus generated in this layout. While operators from regular buttons work fine, the data is missing in operators from menus and such. This patch copies the bContextStore from buttons to the new uiLayout used for popups.

===========================
Commiting camera tracking integration gsoc project into trunk.
This commit includes:
- Bundled version of libmv library (with some changes against official repo,
re-sync with libmv repo a bit later)
- New datatype ID called MovieClip which is optimized to work with movie
clips (both of movie files and image sequences) and doing camera/motion
tracking operations.
- New editor called Clip Editor which is currently used for motion/tracking
stuff only, but which can be easily extended to work with masks too.
This editor supports:
* Loading movie files/image sequences
* Build proxies with different size for loaded movie clip, also supports
building undistorted proxies to increase speed of playback in
undistorted mode.
* Manual lens distortion mode calibration using grid and grease pencil
* Supervised 2D tracking using two different algorithms KLT and SAD.
* Basic algorithm for feature detection
* Camera motion solving. scene orientation
- New constraints to "link" scene objects with solved motions from clip:
* Follow Track (make object follow 2D motion of track with given name
or parent object to reconstructed 3D position of track)
* Camera Solver to make camera moving in the same way as reconstructed camera
This commit NOT includes changes from tomato branch:
- New nodes (they'll be commited as separated patch)
- Automatic image offset guessing for image input node and image editor
(need to do more tests and gather more feedback)
- Code cleanup in libmv-capi. It's not so critical cleanup, just increasing
readability and understanadability of code. Better to make this chaneg when
Keir will finish his current patch.
More details about this project can be found on this page:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Nazg-gul/GSoC-2011
Further development of small features would be done in trunk, bigger/experimental
features would first be implemented in tomato branch.

in all cases except for the render engine.
this allows python to NULL its internal context while scripts are not running.

'const char's,.
Only one functional change where Transform orientations passed "" to BIF_createTransformOrientation() which could then have the value written into.
|
|
flagged as PROP_THICK_WRAP.
Also use const char in many other parts of blenders code.
Currently this gives warnings for setting operator id, label and description since these are an exception and allocated beforehand.

No functional changes.
Where necessary extern "C" {} blocks have been added.

messages when poll fails, at the moment only python uses this but theres nothing python specific.
only added 1 message to a poll function, so messages still need to be set in many more places to be useful.

- EditBone was missing 'selected'
- renamed 'selectable' to --> 'restrict_select', matching object mode.
- renamed 'active_pchan' --> 'active_pose_bone'

rather then returning None.
this way the UI scripts are less likely to fail silently and wont let typos work ok.
also allow subclassing of the context, added a copy function,
bpy.context.copy(), returns the context as a python dict to be modified and used in python.
This also showed up an invalid brush member in the screen context.
|
|
The aim of this is to avoid having to set the selection each time before running an operator from python.
At the moment this is set as a python dictionary with string keys and rna values... eg.
C = {}
C["active_object"] = bpy.data.objects['SomeOb']
bpy.ops.object.game_property_new(C)
# ofcourse this works too..
bpy.ops.object.game_property_new({"active_object":ob})
# or...
C = {"main":bpy.data, "scene":bpy.data.scenes[0], "active_object":bpy.data.objects['SomeOb'], "selected_editable_objects":list(bpy.data.objects)}
bpy.ops.object.location_apply(C)

* Split Info and User preferences into two separate spaces.
* Renamed Buttons Window to Properties also in RNA identifiers.

self documenting and is used as a string from py anyway.
- view3d use select menus use the context.mode enum value.
- if selectmenu in dir(bpy.types) # creates a list of 1400+ strings, does a lookup and throws them away, better avoid this for redrawing.

Patch [#19031] (2.5) python menus for the view3d header
by Lorenzo Pierfederici (lento). Thanks!
* Added CTX_data_mode_string() to find out in which mode we're in.
* Added some "select" menus as a test.
This patch makes it basically possible to wrap the 3D View menus to python.

instead of casting everywhere.

keymaps complaining about python operators not existing, but at the expense of some annoying init flags/functions. :/
Brecht/Ton you may want to check that C->data.py_init is a good place to store this.

* interactive console python console.
* display reports and filter types. defaults to operator display so you can see the python commands for tools as you use them,
eventually it should be possible to select commands and make macto/tools from them.
Example use of autocomp. b<tab>, bpy.<tab>, bpy.<tab>, bpy.data.<tab> etc.
basic instructions are printed when opening the console.
Details...
* Console exec and autocomp are done with operators written in python.
* added CTX_wm_reports() to get the global report list.
* The window manager had a report ListBase but reports have their own struct, switched to allocate and assign when initializing the WM since the type is not available in DNA.
* changed report types flags for easier display filtering.
* added report type RPT_OPERATOR
* logging operators also adds a python-syntax report into CTX_wm_reports() so they can be displayed in the console as well as calling a notifier for console to redraw.
* RnaAPI context.area.tag_redraw() to redraw the current area from a python operator.
Todo...
* better interactions with the console, scrolling, copy/paste.
* the text displayed doesnt load back.
* colors need to be themed.
* scroll limit needs to be a user pref.
* only tested with cmake and scons.
|

Group option currently doesnt handle multiple groups.
Set makefiles python version to 2.6 for linux since its common now.
|
|
* RNA_struct_name_get_alloc function to get the name from a
pointer, instead of having to deal with name property.
* CTX_data_pointer_get_type to get data from context with
a check for the RNA type.
|
|
Python dir(context) now gives the items from the data context
too, modified context callbacks to also return a list of items
in the context.
|
|
Added a system for adding a "local" context in a UI layout.
This way you can define for example within a modifier panel
all operators to get the modifier in the context.
In the layout code:
uiLayoutSetContextPointer(layout, "modifier", &ptr)
layout.set_context_pointer("modifier", md)
In the operator:
ptr = CTX_data_pointer_get(C, "modifier")
md = context.modifier
|
|
* Screen level regions created for menus are now a separate
CTX_wm_menu in the context, so they don't interfere with
existing regions.
* Fix context in popup menus to always come from the area
and region the popup was opened from.
* Removed some unused context stuff: tasks and reports.
The places that were using context reports were using it
wrong anyway.
* Fix F6 closing immediately after editing a button, by
making uiBlockSetFlag not clear existing flags anymore.
* Don't use ":" in boolean X/Y/Z buttons.
|
|
* Made it based on string lookups rather than fixed enum, to make
it extensible by python scripts.
* Context callbacks now also have to specify RNA type when returning
pointers or collections. For non-RNA wrapped data, UnknownType can
be used.
* RNA wrapped context. The WM entries are fixed, for data context
only main and scene are defined properties. Other data entries have
to be dynamically looked up.
* I've added some special code in python for the dynamic context
lookups. Tried to hide it behind RNA but didn't find a clean way to
do it yet. Still unused/untested.
* Also minor fix for warning about propertional edit property in
transform code, and fix for usage of operator poll with checking if
it was NULL.

There was very little structure in this code, using many globals
and duplicated code. Now it should be better structured. Most
things should work, the main parts that are not back yet are the
python plugins and markers. Notes:
* Blenfont is used for drawing the text, nicely anti-aliased.
* A monospace truetype font was added, since that is needed for
the text editor. It's Bitstream Vera Sans Mono. This is the
default gnome terminal font, but it doesn't fit entirely well
with the other font I think, can be changed easily of course.
* Clipboard copy/cut/paste now always uses the system clipboard,
the code for the own cut buffer was removed.
* The interface buttons should support copy/cut/paste again now
as well.
* WM_clipboard_text_get/WM_clipboard_text_set were added to the
windowmanager code.
* Find panel is now a kind of second header, instead of a panel.
This needs especially a way to start editing the text field
immediately on open still.
* Operators are independent of the actual space when possible,
was a bit of puzzling but got it solved nice with notifiers,
and some lazy init for syntax highlight in the drawing code.
* RNA was created for the text editor space and used for buttons.
* Operators:
* New, Open, Reload, Save, Save As, Make Internal
* Run Script, Refresh Pyconstraints
* Copy, Cut, Paste
* Convert Whitespace, Uncomment, Comment, Indent, Unindent
* Line Break, Insert
* Next Marker, Previous Marker, Clear All Markers, Mark All
* Select Line, Select All
* Jump, Move, Move Select, Delete, Toggle Overwrite
* Scroll, Scroll Bar, Set Cursor, Line Number
* Find and Replace, Find, Replace, Find Set Selected,
Replace Set Selected
* To 3D Object
* Resolve Conflict
|
|
* Removed unnecessary define for context loop (editable posechannels)
* Fixed crash in animation-channel filtering - missing check for no world animation.
