blender so better not run.
|
|
- editmesh smooth & subdivide were using old mirror axis flag still.
- removed colbits from outliner and object code.
- commented some other parts of the code which access deprecated members and aren't called anywhere.
|
|
incompatible, and unmaintainable Time Offset cruft.
- Slow Parenting lives another day (just), although it now carries
appropriate cautionary disclaimers. It's only really for the Game
Engine nowadays, as that's the only place where it can possibly work
with any reliability.
- "Animation Hacks" panel is now "Relations Extras". I could've merged
the two panels, though I figured these options weren't that frequently
used to justify taking up screen-space by default along with the panel

new 2.5x code was not passing group recalc flags onto objects within them.
|
|
- move GS() define into DNA_ID.h
- add BLI_utildefines as an automatic include with makesrna generated files.
|
|
MAKE_ID, FILE_MAXDIR, moved the generic defines to BLI_utildefines.h.
no functional changes.
|
|
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.
|
|
- removed deprecated bitmap arg from IMB_allocImBuf (plugins will need updating).
- mostly tagged UNUSED() since some of these functions look like they may need to have the arguments used later.

modifiers etc. constantly even when animation isnt playing.

avoid problems with nagative values.

therefor autocomp.)
- collection functions rename eg. bones_active -> bones__active, add_object -> objects__add since these should be accessed from the collections only.
- fix warnings in last commit
|

Added a group example
C = bpy.context
ob = C.active_object
bpy.data.groups[0].objects.add(ob)
- add_to_group and rem_from_group now take optional scene and base flags and deal with updating the object & base flags
- operators that add objects to groups were setting ob->recalc= OB_RECALC_OB; looks like its not needed.
- previously add() ignored python args, now add and remove are called like any other FunctionRNA from python.
- made the pyrna api use tp_getset's for collestions active/add()/remove()

Make local and make single user are back for ID template.
Internally these calls got unified, id_make_local and
id_copy are now used to do these operations for all types
that support it. Also reveals that for some ID types the
implementation is still missing.
Further, some small changes:
* unlink_text is now in blenkernel.
* copy_group was implemented.
* ID template now has an open operator again.
* fix preview to not change material reference count,
even if temporary it shows up with threaded preview.
* id_unlink unifies unlink for text, object and group.

Think global, act local!
The old favorite G.scene gone! Man... that took almost 2 days.
Also removed G.curscreen and G.edbo.
Not everything could get solved; here's some notes.
- modifiers now store current scene in ModifierData. This is not
meant for permanent, but it can probably stick there until we
cleaned the anim system and depsgraph to cope better with
timing issues.
- Game engine G.scene should become an argument for staring it.
Didn't solve this yet.
- Texture nodes should get scene cfra, but the current implementation
is too tightly wrapped to do it easily.
|
|
Outliner option 'unlink group' didn't remove its members, in case the
group members were local in file, a confusing situation happened. Now
it removes members.
|
|
layers light overrid.
* BPath sequencer strip looper was only operating on the active scene, now look through all scenes.
* The active sequence strip wasnt being reset when scenes switched, so you could see the previous scenes strip when switching to a new scene.
|
|
also removed quat, dquat, and sumohandle from the Object struct since they aren't used anywhere.
|
|
Also made rem_from_group return if it removed the object which save some looping.
Added a node in the blender help message that background mode dosnt load the .B.blend file as a bug was reported recently because of this.
|
|
non-animated dupligroups.
|
|
|
|
that an object was only in 1 group, made it easy to loop through all groups an object is in.
group = NULL;
while( (group = find_group(base->object, group)) ) {
...
}
|
|
When saving files (images), the filewindow was giving relative paths on
a save-over menu.
Also: added in group.c a note about problems with timeoffset.
|
|
previously only some datatypes adding functions accepted a name.
also updated the Bpy.py epydocs
|
|
a group to show when used for duplicators. Is in the Object Buttons,
"Object and Links" panel. Note that the duplicator layer itself still
defines still visiblitily of entire group.
|
|
Notes:
- Only referenced groups (from other files)
- Only 1 group (no more duplicates using same group yet)
- Only Proxy working well for Armature or Empty
Is going to be reviewed in Plumiferos team; but target is that this will
solve a major animation pipeline bottleneck :)
Usage; select group, alt+ctrl+p, pick an object you want to proxify.

The option "unlink group" did not remove the group entirely by setting its
user counter on zero. Now it does!
(option available in Outliner only)
|
|
|
|
This is the case:
- Empty has Group duplicator
- Empty has NLA strips to animate the group
On linking the Empty to another group (with button in ObjectButtons), it
checks for the current strips in NLA, and tries to find the proper objects
in the new Group, based on name matches.
If not found, it sets the strip-objects to zero.

-> Any Group Duplicate now can get local timing and local NLA override. This
enables to control the entire animation system of the Group.
Two methods for this have been implemented.
1) The quick way: just give the duplicator a "Startframe" offset.
2) Advanced: in the NLA Editor you can add ActionStrips to the duplicator
to override NLA/action of any Grouped Object.
For "Group NLA" to work, an ActionStrip needs to know which Object in a
group it controls. On adding a strip, the code checks if an Action was
already used by an Object in the Group, and assigns it automatic to that
Object.
You can also set this in the Nkey "Properties" panel for the strip.
Change in NLA: the SHIFT+A "Add strip" command now always adds strips to
the active Object. (It used to check where mouse was). This allows to add
NLA strips to Objects that didn't have actions/nla yet.
Important note: In Blender, duplicates are fully procedural and generated
on the fly for each redraw. This means that redraw speed equals to stepping
through frames, when using animated Duplicated Groups.
-> Recoded entire duplicator system
The old method was antique and clumsy, using globals and full temporal
copies of Object. The new system is nicer in control, faster, and since it
doesn't use temporal object copies anymore, it works better with Derived
Mesh and DisplayList and rendering.
By centralizing the code for duplicating, more options can be easier added.
Features to note:
- Duplicates now draw selected/unselected based on its Duplicator setting.
- Same goes for the drawtype (wire, solid, selection outline, etc)
- Duplicated Groups can be normally selected too
Bonus goodie: SHIFT+A (Toolbox) now has entry "Add group" too, with a
listing of all groups, allowing to add Group instances immediate.
-> Library System
- SHIFT+F4 data browse now shows the entire path for linked data
- Outliner draws Library Icons to denote linked data
- Outliner operation added: "Make Local" for library data.
- Outliner now also draws Groups in regular view, allowing to unlink too.
-> Fixes
- depsgraph missed signal update for bone-parented Objects
- on reading file, the entire database was tagged to "recalc" fully,
causing unnecessary slowdown on reading.
Might have missed stuff... :)

Series of fixes in Library linking of groups;
- On library-linking (SHIFT-F1) a Group, the Objects now don't get a "Base"
anymore, meaning they won't show up as Objects in the Scene.
This ensures you can use the linked Group as duplicator without having
your file polluted with new (and linked) objects.
(I realize it should be possible to have it with Base too, will check)
- On append or file-read, the linked Group Objects get drawn properly,
but the animation system doesn't run yet.
- Group buttons (F7) now shows if a Group is from Library
- Outliner draws Library linked data with blue-ish text
Other fixes;
- Using group-duplicator, with originals in hidden layer, now shows and
updates animated Objects correctly.
- All of Object button panels did not have a proper protection against
editing Library data.

Previous experiment (in 2000) didn't satisfy, it had even some primitive
NLA option in groups... so, cleaned up the old code (removed most) and
integrated it back in a more useful way.
Usage:
- CTRL+G gives menu to add group, add to existing group, or remove from
groups.
- In Object buttons, a new (should become first) Panel was added, showing
not only Object "ID button" and Parent, but also the Groups the Object
Belongs to. These buttons also allow rename, assigning or removing.
- To indicate Objects are grouped, they're drawn in a (not theme yet, so
temporal?) green wire color.
- Use ALT+SHIFT mouse-select to (de)select an entire group
But, the real power of groups is in the following features:
-> Particle Force field and Guide control
In the "Particle Motion" Panel, you can indicate a Group name, this then
limits force fields or guides to members of that Group. (Note that layers
still work on top of that... not sure about that).
-> Light Groups
In the Material "Shaders" Panel, you can indicate a Group name to limit
lighting for the Material to lamps in this group. The Lights in a Group do
need to be 'visible' for the Scene to be rendered (as usual).
-> Group Duplicator
In the Object "Anim" Panel, you can set any Object (use Empty!) to
duplicate an entire Group. It will make copies of all Objects in that Group.
Also works for animated Objects, but it will copy the current positions or
deforms. Control over 'local timing' (so we can do Massive anims!) will be
added later.
(Note; this commit won't render Group duplicators yet, a fix in bf-blender
will enable that, next commit will sync)
-> Library Appending
In the SHIFT-F1 or SHIFT+F4 browsers, you can also find the Groups listed.
By appending or linking the Group itself, and use the Group Duplicator, you
now can animate and position linked Objects. The nice thing is that the
local saved file itself will only store the Group name that was linked, so
on a next file read, the Group Objects will be re-read as stored (changed)
in the Library file.
(Note; current implementation also "gives a base" to linked Group Objects,
to show them as Objects in the current Scene. Need that now for testing
purposes, but probably will be removed later).
-> Outliner
Outliner now shows Groups as optio too, nice to organize your data a bit too!
In General, Groups have a very good potential... for example, it could
become default for MetaBall Objects too (jiri, I can help you later on how
this works). All current 'layer relationships' in Blender should be dropped
in time, I guess...
