segments with GPencil
After some testing of the behaviour of this stuff, it became clear that the current
pressure handling here isn't very useful. The initial point would invariably get a
low pressure value (due to the way that the initial tap needs time to "take"), while
the end of the stroke suffers from similar issues (i.e. when the pen is released).
Meanwhile, the line thickness would flicker while drawing the stroke, as the endpoint
pressure varied.
So, until we find a better way, all straight line segments are now drawn without
pressure sensitivity.

On second thought, the eraser size should be saved even if the brush type is not
eraser, as we can toggle this now.
|
|
Previously, it would only save the eraser size if the session ended properly,
instead of being cancelled. However, that wouldn't happen if exiting the session
using Esc.

GPencil Continous Draw Mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
Draw" mode
When working with a pen only, it was previously impossible to exit Grease Pencil
draw mode (when continous drawing was enabled). Now, clicking outside the drawing region
(e.g. in the timeline, properties editor, or the header/properties/toolshelf regions)
where you are drawing will exit this mode.
Some corner cases to be aware of:
* When Region Overlap is enabled, clicking on the overlapping panels still exits
draw mode (even though you can see behind the buttons)
* In the Nodes Editor, clicking on a node (while in drawmode) will still draw a
dot/stroke. But, you can still exit drawmode by clicking on any of the panels
(properties/toolshelf/header) mentioned earlier
* To cope with cases where the operator is launched from the toolshelf, the
code now sets a new "active region" when the first stroke is performed
(based on what region is under the cursor at the time of that stroke),
overwriting the setting that got stored when invoking the operator (i.e. the toolshelf).
This change doesn't have any real user-visible effects, other than making it possible for
this fix to actually work without breaking that use case.

Our current keymap doesn't give us enough room to make such changes in
the event system. To fix small issues caused by this, we would need to do
drastic changes in Blender's keymaps and internal handling. It was worth
a try, but it didn't work.
I can write down a more descriptive statement in a few days, but for now
I need a break of this stuff.

Continuous Drawing mode
|
|
Design task: T42339
Differential Revision: D840
Initial implementation proposal: T41867
Short description:
With this we can distinguish between holding and tabbing a key. Useful
is this if we want to assign to operators to a single shortcut. If two
operators are assigned to one shortcut, we call this a sticky key.
More info is accessible through the design task and the diff.
A few people that were involved with this:
* Sean Olson for stressing me with this burden ;) - It is his enthusiasm
that pushed me forward to get this done
* Campbell and Antony for the code and design review
* Ton for the design review
* All the other people that gave feedback on the patch and helped to
make this possible
A big "Thank You" for you all!

"Continuous Drawing"
It is now possible to switch between drawing and erasing strokes when in
the modal "Continous Drawing" sessions. This makes the drawing experience
just a little more fluid, saving some unncessary steps to get out of
the editing mode to activate the intended tool.
TODO: Is there interest for tablet support for this too?
|
|
|
|
Since I don't have a (pressure sensitive) tablet handy, I can't really test this
out, but apparently there is a bug which currently exists with the following description:
"Small Dots, when you do just one click a single GP dot is created, it´s fine but don't recognize the pen pressure, always the maximum value of thickness, and
It´s so easy create dots accidentally (even when you use the eraser, this dots appear spontaneously) and you start to have big screen-size-constant dots beside of you fine lines."
This commit just shuffles around the order of things a bit so that some of the misfiring
events might get skipped instead.

D783 with minor edits to increase contrast
|
|
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.

View2D had some inconsistencies making it error prone in some cases.
- Inconstant checking for NULL x/y args.
Disallow NULL args for x/y destination pointers, instead add:
- UI_view2d_region_to_view_x/y
- UI_view2d_view_to_region_x/y
- '_no_clip' suffix wasn't always used for non-clipping conversion,
switch it around and use a '_clip' suffix for all funcs that clip.
- UI_view2d_text_cache_add now clips before adding cache.
- '_clip' funcs return a bool to quickly check if its in the view.
- add conversion for rectangles, since this is a common task:
- UI_view2d_view_to_region_rcti
- UI_view2d_region_to_view_rctf

indent.
also indent case's within the switch (we already did both of these almost everywhere)
|

layer to that area
Remove REGISTER flag from GP draw operator, so redo wouldn't screw up regions.
|
|
|
|
also rename mesh_getVertexCos() --> BKE_mesh_vertexCos_get() to match curve function.
|
|
add depth check to grease pencil eraser when xray option is disabled.
|
|
|
|
-> ED_view3d_calc_zfac() and have it return the zfac to use.

Timer events used by the airbrush would always give a pressure of 1.0, ignoring the tablets real pressure in all paint modes.
Move tablet data into its own struct-member so it can be used with timer events.

allow arrow keys while in grease pencil session, otherwise you can't change frames.
also correct out-of-date comments.
