Colors used by Bone Groups are now copied/assigned to Action Groups too when
they're created now. This completes the work started in r.46960 to restore this
functionality from 2.48.
Currently, there is no control over when/whether these colors are copied over
(although it is possible to disable the display of these colors for relevant
animation editors if desired). Originally I was going to make this a more
generic Keying Sets feature, though that turned out to be a bit too complex to
manage.
Other notes:
* Split out the code for copying colors to a common library function
|
|
|
|
also use ..._find_name(..., name) rather then ..._find_named(..., name) --- both were used.
|
|
also stop numpy from being found in /usr/include with cmake.
|
|
needs it.
|
|
*Add a new idname to keyingsets, keeping name as label-only (using same string for both made lookup fail when using i18n other than english, as it tried to compare an untranslated static string id against a translated RNA name). Also adding a description string (can be helpful with custom keyingsets, imho).
*Fixed a few other bugs related to that area (namely, you can’t deselect current keyingset from the shift-ctrl-alt-I popup menu, and insert/delete key ops were using a rather strange way to get chosen custom keyingset…).
*Fixed UI code so that it always uses (RNA) enum, and simplified menu-creation code.
|
|
without the underscores these clogged up the namespace for autocompleation which was annoying.
|
|
having some incorrect names (as fixed in last commit)
|
|
doesn't create keyframe.
|
|
* Split off code to refresh relative/builtin KeyingSets for the
current context before they get used to a separate function.
* Hooked this up to a new PyAPI/RNA function: KeyingSet.refresh().
Call this before checking the paths that a Keying Set has, especially
if it is not "absolute"
* Added option for "Select Grouped" operator (for Objects), which will
select all objects affected by the active Keying Set. This is probably
more useful for absolute KeyingSets, where changing the selection is
less likely to affect the result.
- The equivalent for bones is currently still in development, but is
likely to be more useful for animators, where rigs are the primary
animation entities they deal with

Causing a flurry of refresh file prompts post-commit,
Confusing local diffs and causing merge conflicts,
Stating the obvious; redundant and useless...

It is now possible to create "scripted expression" drivers by simply
clicking on some property, and typing some short Python expression
prefixed with a '#'. This will result in a scripted expression driver,
with the typed-in text being created.
For example, you can click on X-Location of the default cube, and
type:
#sin(frame)
and a new driver will be created for the x-location of the cube. This
will use the current frame value, and modulate this with a sine wave.
Do note though, that the current frame is a special case here. In the
current implementation, a special "frame" driver variable, which
references the current scene frame is created automatically, so that
this simple and (assumed) common case will work straight out of the
box.
Future improvements:
- Explore possibilities of semi-automated extraction of variables from
such expressions, resulting in automated variable extraction. (Doing
away with variables completely is definitely 100% off the agenda
though)
- Look into some ways of defining some shorthands for referencing
local data (possibly related to variable extraction?)

needed for dynamic python enums.

Scene (Toolsettings, i.e. alongside "layered" option for using NLA
while doing auto-keying)
This option makes all Auto-Keying operations use the active Keying Set
to carry out keyframing operations instead of picking and choosing
their own Keying Sets to use, thus cutting down on the number of
unwanted keys.
Warning: if the older userpref option was enabled in an old
startup.blend, it may be difficult to turn this option off.
|
|
Keyframing operators now use a dynamically-generated enum for their
"type" property, which determines the Keying Set to use for keyframing
instead of the obscure "index" values which were determined
internally. Internally though, these same indices are still being used
:)
Notes:
- I've kept the menu-building function and the special "menu" operator
for now, since it's better to not "pollute" the actual insert
keyframes operator with hardcoded menu-showing logic. Instead, the
menu operator does that, so that if you like, you could write another
such wrapper that works differently.
- The 'type' properties could have the PROP_HIDDEN flags removed,
though I think it's cleaner to leave these without this option for
now.
|
|
- Adding drivers from the UI (not from py-scripts though) will now
automatically add a "Transform Channel" driver variable to the newly
created drivers. This makes setting up drivers a bit more convenient
for the most commonly used case.
- Drivers now report their errors using the Reports system instead of
writing these directly to the console.
- Clarified some comments to be more insightful about the "why's" of
some design decisions, and related formatting/cleanup tweaks
- Reduced scope of "path" vars to just the scope they're required in
- Removed some unused defines from a failed experiment in the original
Keying Sets code ("templates" and "template flags") which was
superseeded by the more flexible + nicer "Builtin KeyingSets"
|
|
* Keyframing operators now use the reports system for displaying all its error messages.
- The benefit of this is that users no longer need to check the console for error messages if keyframing fails.
- Unfortunately, reports are not currently viewable in any space/view in Blender, so...
* Added a temporary operator (UI_OT_reports_to_textblock), which can be accessed in the UI from the button which appears in place of the icon when more than one report exists. This dumps the current list of reports to a textblock "Recent Reports", from which they can be viewed.
This isn't really nice, but at least we now have a way to view these again, which makes debugging some things a pain.
* Bugfix #24606 - when trying to add keyframes to F-Curves with F-Modifiers already which alter the curve significantly enough that the keyframes will have no effect, there are now warnings which aim to alleviate any confusion.
|
|
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.
|
|
own files.
No functional changes.
Where necessary extern "C" {} blocks have been added.
|
|
Moved duplicated code out to a special new function so that this doesn't need to be copied all over for each transform op that needs this.
|
|
* Fractional frames support has been changed to use a new var, scene->r.subframe.
This is a 0.0-1.0 float representing a subframe interval, used in generating a final float
frame number to evaluate animation system etc.
* Changed frame_to_float() and some instances of bsystem_time() into a convenience function:
float BKE_curframe(scene) which retrieves the floating point current frame, after subframe
and frame length corrections.
* Removed blur_offs and field_offs globals. These are now stored in render, used to
generate a scene->r.subframe before render database processing.
|
|
* Added operator (Ctrl Shift Alt I) to show menu for changing the active Keying Set in the 3D view (todo item from last commit)
* KeyingSetInfo (i.e. the Builtin Keying Set classes) can now be accessed from Keying Set instances with ks.type_info
* Added ks.remove_all_paths() function to remove all the paths for a Keying Set.
---
These two changes mean that builtin Keying Sets could be refreshed in response to context changes by doing:
<code>
ks = bpy.context.scene.active_keying_set
if ks.absolute==False and ks.type_info:
ksi = ks.type_info
# remove existing paths to fill with new
ks.remove_all_paths()
# check if Keying Set can be used in current context
if ksi.poll(bpy.context):
# call iterator() which calls generate() and re-populates paths list
ksi.iterator(bpy.context, ks)
</code>
And then, once this has been done, the paths that the Keying Set will operate on can be accessed as
<code>
paths = bpy.context.scene.active_keying_set.paths
</code>
|
|
* Added 'id_name' property, which is used as the "typeinfo_name" by Keying Set instances. This is simply the name of the relevant KeyingSetInfo classes.
* Renamed the 'array_index' arg for ks.add_path() to 'index'. Also removed the 'entire array' toggle arg in favour of just passing -1 to index. However, Keying Sets in general still maintain their 'entire array' toggle flags for now, it's just that the API function does conversion between the two.

This commit clarifies the somewhat "murky" separation between "builtin" and "absolute" KeyingSets as a result of discussions with Cessen.
* "Builtin" Keying Sets are now just the Keying Sets which in the past have been known as PyKeyingSets or Relative KeyingSets. These are registered from Py Scripts at startup, and will use the context info to determine what data they should be keyframing. These are stored per Blender session, independent of files, since usually these will be coded specific to sets of rigs used at a studio.
* "Absolute" Keying Sets are the ones that you can create from the Scene buttons and/or KKEY or RMB over any property. They specify the exact set of properties which should always get keyframed together. These are stored in the scene.
In relation to this, I've made it possible to now set one of the builtin Keying Set types as the active Keying Set.
* For now, this can only be done via the box beside the insert/delete key operator buttons on the TimeLine header (now complete with an recycled icon - HINT TO ICON DESIGNERS, to make this a bit more obvious). Later on I'll commit an operator to set this via a hotkey.
* The "IKEY" menu will only show up when there is no active Keying Set. When there is one, keying will happen silently (with info notice at the top of the screen). Later on, I'll hook this menu up to a hotkey, so that that active Keying Set can be changed without inserting keyframes or clearing active Keying Set...
* By default, there isn't any default Keying Set enabled. IMO, this is probably a good default, though some might like to have LocRotScale instead.
* I'm not terribly impressed with the search menu for the items being SORTED (and of all things, alphabetically!) currently, since this does break muscle-memory with the menu (and jumbles up order of closely related vs not closely related).
* The Scene buttons for KeyingSets still need some changes to fully cope with users setting builtin KeyingSets as active sometimes. Controls which are useless or shouldn't be used when a builtin set is shown are being shown.
Builtin set registrations have been tweaked a bit:
* Renamed "bl_idname" to "bl_label" for consistency with rest of API. Note that this is the identifier used by Blender internally when searching for the KeyingSet, and is also what the user sees.

After a few days of wrong turns and learning the finer points of RNA-type-subclassing the hard way, this commit finally presents a refactored version of the Keying Sets system (now version 2) based on some requirements from Cessen.
For a more thorough discussion of this commit, see
http://sites.google.com/site/aligorith/keyingsets_2.pdf?attredirects=0&d=1
------
The main highlight of this refactor is that relative Keying Sets have now been recoded so that Python callbacks are run to generate the Keying Set's list of paths everytime the Keying Set is used (to insert or delete keyframes), allowing complex heuristics to be used to determine whether a property gets keyframed based on the current context. These checks may include checking on selection status of related entities, or transform locks.
Built-In KeyingSets have also been recoded, and moved from C and out into Python. These are now coded as Relative Keying Sets, and can to some extent serve as basis for adding new relative Keying Sets. However, these have mostly been coded in a slightly 'modular' way which may be confusing for those not so familiar with Python in general. A usable template will be added soon for more general usage.
Keyframing settings (i.e. 'visual', 'needed') can now be specified on a per-path basis now, which is especially useful for Absolute Keying Sets, where control over this is often beneficial.
Most of the places where Auto-Keyframing is performed have been tidied up for consistency. I'm sure quite a few issues still exist there, but these I'll clean up over the next few days.

* Added a User-Pref option for the "XYZ to RGB" colour-mode setting for new F-Curves to compliment the one used for Keying Sets. With this option enabled, the builtin Keying Sets also can obey this option.
* Made all places that were previously manually checking the flags for keyframing to use a standard API function to do this now.
* Fixed bug introduced earlier today in commit 25353 by reverting the changes to keyingsets.c. Forgot that delete_keyframe doesn't handle do the "entire array" hack with array_index = -1
* Fixed bug with the insert-keyframe code for the array_index = -1 case, where too many channels were being keyed (i.e. an imaginary channel was often keyed in addition to the valid ones)
|
|
Added option to KeyingSets+Keyframing Functions which makes newly added F-Curves for Transforms + Colours to use the colour mode which uses the array index to determine the colour of the F-Curve.
The main implication of this is that when this option is enabled for a KeyingSet, all sets of XYZ F-Curves (i.e. location, rotation, scale) for transforms will be shown in Red/Green/Blue instead of some automatically determined "rainbow" colour. Useful for animators far too used to Maya's Graph Editor :P
This setting is named, "XYZ to RGB", though that doesn't make its purpose entirely clear.
|
|
- exporting addEditBone from armature module for COLLADA importer
|
|
* Added a new option for Auto-Keyframing which makes it only insert keyframes for the items included in the active Keying Set.
This only works for Transform Auto-Keyframing so far (other tools will get it added later). The option is disabled by default.
* Fixed bug where adding an 'entire' array to some KeyingSet would only start from the index of the button that the mouse was over at the time
* Made some UI tweaks for Keying Sets buttons (still heaps of missing options there).

animation
The hardcoded paths for rotation keyframes on objects got broken by my commits to rename the rotation properties. I've taken this opportunity to recode the auto-keyframing code here to use the builtin keyingsets instead of going through and manually calling insert_keyframe(), thus preventing this problem in future.
|
|
Added a way to view and edit Keying Sets via the Scene Buttons. These are still some tweaks needed to make this really workable, but should still work well enough for simply viewing and tweaking existing Keying Sets created using other means.
Additional bugfixes:
* Adjusted the size of labels on properties that had a 'label' for their name. Now it uses 1/3 of the total width instead, which looks much better for most cases.
* Added missing entries for adding Force Fields from the Info-header 'Add' menu. At some point we should unify this menu with the popup operator's one, since this is exactly the kind of situation we had hoped in avoid with new UI architectures.
* Moved all the operator defines for keyframing stuff to the 'intern' anim header instead

Drivers can now be copied/pasted for single properties, allowing drivers set up on one property to be added to a few other properties relatively easily.
Also, added description strings for the other driver-button operators.
|
|
Set to the RMB menu (and also via KKEY and ALT-K respectively)
|
|
* DopeSheet + Graph Editor - 'Sample Keyframes' option now tags newly created keyframes as being breakdowns. Also moved reduced the code duplication here by moving the core code for this to the animation module.
* Keyframing (Standard/Auto) - Added proper 'replace' option
Keyframes can now be rekeyed non-destructively when the INSERTKEY_REPLACE flag is provided to the keyframing API functions, since this option will make sure that only the values of the handles get altered.
For the Auto-Keyframing 'Replace/Edit Keys' option, this means that it truly works as it describes now, since it will now only replace the values of the keyframes on the current frame, and won't create new keyframes in the process or destroy the tangents already created for those keys.
For things like the sliders in animation editors, keyframes changing the value won't destroy existing tangents.
|
|
Wrapped the Keying Sets API with RNA Functions so that they can now be called from Py-Scripts. This will ultimately be useful for riggers to create Keying Sets which can get loaded up/created for animators to use after importing their rig.
I've created a demo for this, which can be found at:
http://www.pasteall.org/blend/552
Notes:
- Kazanbas, I've had to create a rna_scene_api.c here to hold some of the relevant functions. Hopefully this won't cause you too much pain when you do your next merge from 2.5 to your branch ;)
- I've noticed that there seem to be a few cases mentioned in the demo which don't totally work yet. I'll commit some fixes for those later.
|
|
* Keyframes for scene-linked animdata is drawn first (if 'Only Selected Data Keys' is off)
* Keyframes are also drawn for the active object
|
|
* Text window font size now supports full range 8-32, instead of
just 12 and 15. I added BLF_fixed_width to get the character
width of a fixed size font.
* Buttons do undo push on change again.
* Animated/Keyframe/Driver colors are now themable, with blend
value to blend with original color. Set this to 0.5 now to
give colors less constrast.
* Fix tooltip popping up with RMB menu open, and missing redraw.
* Autokeyframe now works for buttons.
* Driver expressions can be edited in place in a button now.
(still some refresh issues).
* Also made python driver default for the Add Driver function
in the RMB button. This way you don't have to open a Graph
editor if you just want to type an expression. Also, the
default expression then is the current value.
* Tooltips now show some extra info, not sure what is good to
have, but currently I added:
* Shortcut key for operator buttons.
* Python struct & property name for RNA buttons.
* Expression for driven values.
* Value for text/search/pointer buttons.
|
|
* Text labels on NLA-Strips should now draw properly for most short-strips now. Previously, the padding on the text was a bit too extreme, so for very short strips (less than 4 frames or so), the text was often pushed down into the bottom-right corner of view.
* Optimised the keyframe-highlighting code for buttons a bit. Replaced the custom linear-search with the binary-search used when inserting keyframes (and for the 3d-view keyframe-indicator). There should be some theoretical improvements due to this at least...
|
|
* These settings can now be edited + keyframed (using IKEY over the button only for now... other cases will fail)
* Reshuffled some of the keyframing code to make this sort of thing easier to do. Also, restored corrections for NLA-mapping when inserting/removing keyframes.
TODOS:
* animation editors don't show these keyframes yet
* the buttons don't change colour yet to reflect this state. How to do this efficiently?
* allow keyframing of these in more places
* more robust UI handling for this.
|
|
* Moved proportional edit, snap, autokey mode, and a few others
from Scene to ToolSettings.
* RNA wrapped properties in ToolSettings for the UV editor:
proportional edit, snap settings, selection modes.
|
|
|
|
* Cleaned up Keyframing API to get eliminate some of the problems faced during the original implementation of PoseLib, thus reducing code redundancy.
* Added new Animato evaluation functions specifically for use by PoseLib.
* Replaced parts of PoseLib code which relied on old animation system to the equivalent code for Animato. Notice the much cleaner + saner + compact code!
Next step is to operatorfy the PoseLib tools (while maintaining possibility for an API to some things) :)
|
|
Drivers can now be Added/Removed from buttons using the D/Alt-D hotkeys, and also through the menu. Driver settings (i.e. the target) are not set by default. To set those, go to the Graph Editor (see notes).
Notes:
* Buildsystem maintainers - I've added a new file "editors/animation/drivers.c"
* Widget colours for the driven-setting indications are needed
* To see the new drivers, go into Graph Editor -> "Drivers" mode. Currently, there's a little bug there which prevents editing of the new drivers.
|
|
- I key over a button inserts a keyframe.
- Alt+I removes a keyframe.
- With right mouse button a menu with these options pops up.
- Buttons are colored green if the property is animated, yellow
if it is on a keyframe. I followed the colors from the UI
mockups, but the flicker on keyframes seems too distracting in
practice?
- This only works for properties on the ID itself at the moment,
path callbacks need to be filled in for all structs but mesh
still.
- It doesn't work when you're over a related label, that needs to
be made to work.
- I made it insert keyframes outside of any keyingset. Not sure
how this is supposed to integrate?
