`cd_flag` tends to be used for CustomData flags in mesh area, while for
library_query those are rather callback flags...
|
|
|
|
Special case, so now we can pin tricky cases like animated camera DOF
without requiring to have animation on the object level.
|
|
Thanks Severin for spotting it!
|
|
Allow such kind of pin for armature bones.
|
|
Well, more like some last-minute checks which i did not see before commit.
Let's increase commit ratio!
|
|
The idea is to allow certain animation channels to be always visible in
animation editors. So, for example, one can pin Camera animation to the
editor so it is always possible to refine/tweak camera animation when
animating something else in the scene.
There is probably some more polishing required, and some current
limitations could be solved in the future but should be a good starting
point already.
Currently only works for object without recursing into deeper datablock
(so for example, it's not possible to pin object material animation).
Studio request by Colin Levy.

All in all, this patch adds an Alembic importer, an Alembic exporter,
and a new CacheFile data block which, for now, wraps around an Alembic
archive. This data block is made available through a new modifier ("Mesh
Sequence Cache") as well as a new constraint ("Transform Cache") to
somewhat properly support respectively geometric and transformation data
streaming from alembic caches.
A more in-depth documentation is to be found on the wiki, as well as a
guide to compile alembic: https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/
User:Kevindietrich/AlembicBasicIo.
Many thanks to everyone involved in this little project, and huge shout
out to "cgstrive" for the thorough testings with Maya, 3ds Max, Houdini
and Realflow as well as @fjuhec, @jensverwiebe and @jasperge for the
custom builds and compile fixes.

Also no need to calloc arrays which are immediately filled
|

A long requested feature has been to have objects appear in alphabetical order
in the animation editors, so that it is easier to find where they occur. This
commit implements support for this.
The main sticking point has been the performance impact of having this sorting
happening all the time (as the actual list of "bases" cannot be modified, as the
old depsgraph still needs random-looking unsorted order of objects for scheduling
updates). However, it recently occurred to me that perhaps by restricting it to
the one case where the ordering actually matters (i.e. when we're getting the channel
list for drawing all channels, vs operating on them), and adding a toggle to turn the
sorting off in heavy scenes when it might bog down things, that it will probably
be acceptable enough in general. Furthermore, if things get really bad, we can investigate
putting in place some sort of caching scheme for this too - though hopefully the
new depsgraph will make that unnecessary (i.e. it doesn't sort the bases directly anymore).

the dopesheet
|
|
This commit introduces a scale factor setting for scaling all keyframe indicators
in the Dopesheet Editor up/down, in order to make them easier to select. It is perhaps
most useful for keyframe types which are usually indicated using smaller keyframes
(e.g. breakdown), which may get tricky to quickly select.

Idea is to replace hard-to-track (id->lib != NULL) 'is linked datablock' check everywhere in Blender
by a macro doing the same thing. This will allow to easily spot those checks in future, and more importantly,
to easily change it (see work done in asset-engine branch).
Note: did not touch to readfile.c, since there most of the time 'id->lib' check actually concerns the pointer,
and not a check whether ID is linked or not. Will have a closer look at it later.

Thanks to D1080 by @rockets, I've now been able to easily implement the
ability to type multiple word snippets/partial words into the text filter
field (in the Animation Editors), and have it filter the channels which
contain just some of those parts (instead of having to match everything).
For example, the following search strings will now work:
* "loc rot" or "lo ro" will now filter all location and rotation FCurves
* "col loc" will filter all location and color FCurves
* "scale" will also work as before to filter all scale FCurves
But, the following will not work:
* "lc rt" will NOT filter all location and rotation, as the fuzzy search only
breaks down the search string based on whitespace placement
By default, this is not enabled when using name filtering (i.e. magnifying glass is checked,
and some filtering text is specified). Instead, you need to enable the "AZ" toggle beside
the name field. This fuzzy matching is not enabled by default as it could end up being
quite a bit slower on really heavy scenes. (There are probably some optimisation
opportunities, but that's only a future option if someone really needs it)

This is purely internal sanitizing/cleanup, no change in behavior is expected at all.
This change was also needed because we were getting short on ID flags, and
future enhancement of 'user_one' ID behavior requires two new ones.
id->flag remains for persistent data (fakeuser only, so far!), this also allows us
100% backward & forward compatibility.
New id->tag is used for most flags. Though written in .blend files, its content
is cleared at read time.
Note that .blend file version was bumped, so that we can clear runtimeflags from
old .blends, important in case we add new persistent flags in future.
Also, behavior of tags (either status ones, or whether they need to be cleared before/after use)
has been added as comments to their declaration.

There should be no functional changes visible from this change, but this commit
should make it easier to code tools which need to check on tweeakmode status,
by making it easier to figure out which NLA Track contains the strip which
owned the action being edited. (The strip is already saved, so this commit just
adds the track alongside it).
For now there is no version patch for this. The worst that happens is that an
extra refresh is needed in the NLA editor to get these to show up.
|
|
strips selected
When entering tweakmode on multiple strips (from different AnimData blocks)
simultaneously, only the track containing the last selected strip would be
shown. All the other tracks with strips being tweaked would not appear at
all.
|
|
|
|
Using the standard "FCurve" animchannel type didn't work that well for
the control FCurves on NLA Strips, as the paths would not resolve correctly,
and the indentation was wrong. Also, there would likely be issues down the
track with applying NLA mapping. Hence, it's easier to just create a separate
type for this case, and adapt the rest of the code to also consider these (todo).
|
|
The "Nla Strip Controls" channel is used to house the per-strip
FCurves for controlling the strip_time and influence properties.
It sits above the active action's first group, at the same level
in the hierarchy as other groups.
TODO: It looks like a dedicated FCurve channel is needed for these
control FCurves, so that we won't accidentally apply NLA mapping
or have these FCurves disabled by the path lookups failing.

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.

texture parameters
Textures attached to particle systems are now get their animation data listed
under the particle systems they are attached to now. This is the most convenient
and direct way that these can get included
|
|
Was caused by a typo - "items" was used in place of "tmp_items", causing animation
in the texture to get ignored if nothing else was present

also rename BLI_edgeset_reinsert -> BLI_edgeset_add, in this case its the same.

its arguments can use
Hopefully this should help prevent bugs lik T40304 from occurring again.

In many BI shader setups, the material which owns the nodetree is often itself
included as a node in that nodetree (i.e. to provide the base colour for that
mesh). This would often result in the material (and its subtree) getting included
in the dopesheet results twice.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use temporary runtime flag of filter_mode argument instead.
This commit also fixes some weirdo mix of filter_mode with
filterflag bits.
|
|
Internal filtering flags used to obtain AnimData blocks as result were not
working correctly in Action and ShapeKey modes. Instead, in these modes, they
were often returning F-Curves instead, which lead to the grouping operating
failing (and perhaps other unidentified bugs)
|
|
It was not implemented in anim filter yet.
it's strictly speaking not so much clear how
"selected only" mode is expected to work when
having multiple node trees editing at the same
time. For now all the animation data from
selected group will be displayed.
|
|
linestyles in some places.
|
|
DopeSheet.
This could happen when a line style is shared by multiple linesets within a scene.
|
|
|
|
indent.
also indent case's within the switch (we already did both of these almost everywhere)
|
|
linked via material
Textures linked to modifiers are now shown in the AnimEditor channel hierarchy
under object level now (i.e. on same level as ob-data, shapekeys, and object's
action). This makes it possible to edit such animation data without having to
ensure that these textures are also linked to the object's material so that they
will appear.
As a side-effect of how this is implemented, if playback is slower on scenes
following this commit, disable the "modifier" filter under the filtering
settings in the relevant animation editor header. In particular, it may be
beneficial to disable this when you've got scenes with meshes that have many
modifiers (but none of these have any linked data with settings which can be
animated), as Blender will still try to go through all those modifiers checking
for anything to show.
