This patch allows Windows users to specify that their current blender
installation should be used to create thumbnails and be associated
with ".blend" files. This is done from Preferences / System. The only
way to do this currently is from the command-line and this is sometimes
inconvenient.

The `file.execute` operator would early-exit because the mouse wasn't hovering
the file list. Caused by 4ba9d7d71e8f.
Although simpler solutions would have been possible, I decided it's better to
split add a new operator for executing based on the mouse (for double-clicking
files), to separate that from the window level execute operator
(`file.execute`). This allows more control and we can get rid of the implicit
assumption that the keymap would call `file.select` on mouse-press, and
`file.execute` on double-click, for the double-click behavior to work. The cost
is that we execute the file selection & activation logic twice on the
double-click, but that shouldn't be an issue at all.
Also removes the `need_active` property from the `file.execute` operator.
That's ancient and wasn't implemented well anyway.
To be clear, reason this fixes the bug is that `file.execute` works entirely
with the `execute()` callback now and doesn't early-exit based on the mouse
position anymore.
Might trigger warnings about the `need_active` property not being found for
custom keymaps. These can be ignored and the property can safely be removed
from the keymap. I don't expect other keymap breakages.

Add operator `FILE_OT_view_selected` to the file browser (and thus also
to the asset browser) that scrolls selected files into view.
This includes the active file, even though it is not selected. In
certain cases the active file can loose its selected state (clicking
next to it, or refreshing the asset browser), but then it's still shown
in the right-hand sidebar. Because of this, I found it important to take
it into account when scrolling.
This also includes a change to the keymaps:
- Blender default: {key NUMPAD_PERIOD} is removed from the "reload"
operator, and assigned to the new "view selected files" operator. The
reload operator was already doubly bound, and now {key R} is the only
remaining hotkey for it.
- Industry compatible: {key F} is assigned to the new "view selected
files" operator. This is consistent with the other "view selected"
operators in other editors.

Add an RNA function `activate_asset_by_id(asset_id: ID, deferred: bool)`
to the File Browser space type, which intended to be used to activate an
asset's entry as identified by its `ID *`. Calling it changes the active
asset, but only if the given ID can actually be found.
The activation can be deferred (by passing `deferred=True`) until the
next refresh operation has finished. This is necessary when an asset has
just been added, as it will be loaded by the filebrowser in a background
job.

This introduces the User Interface part of the Asset Browser, based on the
design in T54642.
Additions:
* New Asset Browser (internally a sub-editor of the File Browser).
* Navigation region showing asset categories.
* Main region showing the assets of the selected asset library with previews.
The assets may be stored over multiple .blends in the directory that's
"mounted" as asset library in the Preferences. They will all be shown in this
list.
* Header with an asset library dropdown, allowing to choose the active asset
library to show. Options are the "Current File" as asset library and all
custom libraries.
* Display popover, filter popover and search box (partially dummies, see
T82680).
* Sidebar showing the metadata of the currently active file (name, preview,
description and tags), which can be edited for assets in the "Current File"
asset library. (For others it will reset on reload.)
* The sidebar includes a button to load a custom preview image from a file.
* Make asset files draggable (with preview image).
* If a library with invalid path is selected, a message is drawn in the main
region to help the user understand what's wrong.
* Operators to add and remove asset tags. Exposed in the sidebar.
* "Only Assets" option for Link/Append.
* Internal utilities for asset UI scripts.
For screenshots or demo videos, please see D9725. Or the 2.92 release notes.
Note that there are many things to be tweaked and polished in the Asset Browser
UI still. For example, the filter and display popovers are mostly dummies. See
T82680.

The Asset Browser will be a sub-editor of the File Browser. This prepares the
File Browser code for that.
**File-Lists**
* Support loading assets with metadata read from external files into the
file-list.
* New main based file-list type, for the "Current File" asset library.
* Refresh file-list when switching between browse modes or asset libraries.
* Support empty file-lists (asset library with no assets).
* Store file previews as icons, so scripts can reference them via icon-id. See
previous commit.
**Space Data**
* Introduce "browse mode" to differeniate between file and asset browsing.
* Add `FileAssetSelectParams` to `SpaceFile`, with `FileSelectParams` as base.
Makes sure data is separated between asset and file browsing when switching
between them. The active params can be obtained through
`ED_fileselect_get_active_params()`.
* `FileAssetSelectParams` stores the currently visible asset library ID.
* Introduce file history abstraction so file and asset browsing can keep a
separate history (previous and next directories).
**General**
* Option to only show asset data-blocks while file browsing (not exposed here).
* Add "active_file" context member, so scripts can get and display info about
the active file.
* Add "active_id" context member, so `ED_OT_lib_id_load_custom_preview` can set
a custom ID preview. (Only for "Current File" asset library)
* Expose some of `FileDirEntry` in RNA as (non-editable). That way scripts can
obtain name, preview icon and asset-data.

This isn't a general utility, and the name wasn't descriptive.
|
|
For the default keymap we were only using the regular toolshelf
operator, doing this for the industry compatible keymap too now (we
could even remove it there, we don't use it in other editors).
Since we "now" have proper operators for toggling regions, this specific
one is totally redundant.
|
|
So far the file browser code had some lazy creation for the tool region,
even though it should always be there. The only reason I can see for
this is compatiblity. So I simply added versioning code to add the
region in case it's not there. Now we should be able to savely assume
the tool region to be there, whithout any unusual lazy-creation.
|
|
This makes it so that regions only needed when the file browser is
invoked as an operation (e.g. Ctrl+O rather than a regular editor) are
lazy created then, and removed if the file browser is changed into a
regular editor then (e.g. Ctrl+O over regular file browser editor ->
Cancel).
That should remove some troublesome assumptions and makes versioning
redundant.
It also fixes the issue of an empty execute region at the bottom after
cancelling a file operation invoked from a regular file browser editor.
|
|
We moved this to Python too quickly, causing the following regressions:
* No auto completion for file names
* Additional handling not applied on changes, like automatic extension
appending (see file_filename_enter_handle)
* Red highlight missing when the file name already exists
Note that earlier (before the file browser redesign), this didn't use
the panel and layout code at all. So even if it's still not in Python,
at least it's integrated into regular panel management now.
OS-specific ordering of the open and cancel button is kept.
Fixes T69457.

This is a general redesign of the File Browser GUI and interaction
methods. For screenshots, check patch D5601.
Main changes in short:
* File Browser as floating window
* New layout of regions
* Popovers for view and filter options
* Vertical list view with interactive column header
* New and updated icons
* Keymap consistency fixes
* Many tweaks and fixes to the drawing of views
----
General:
* The file browser now opens as temporary floating window. It closes on
Esc. The header is hidden then.
* When the file browser is opened as regular editor, the header remains
visible.
* All file browser regions are now defined in Python (the button
layout).
* Adjusted related operator UI names.
Keymap:
Keymap is now consistent with other list-based views in Blender, such as
the Outliner.
* Left click to select, double-click to open
* Right-click context menus
* Shift-click to fill selection
* Ctrl-click to extend selection
Operator options:
These previously overlapped with the source list, which caused numerous
issues with resizing and presenting many settings in a small panel area.
It was also generally inconsistent with Blender.
* Moved to new sidebar, which can easily be shown or hidden using a
prominent Options toggle.
* IO operators have new layouts to match this new sidebar, using
sub-panels. This will have to be committed separately (Add-on
repository).
* If operators want to show the options by default, they have the option
to do so (see `WM_FILESEL_SHOW_PROPS`, `hide_props_region`), otherwise
they are hidden by default.
General Layout:
The layout has been changed to be simpler, more standard, and fits
better in with Blender 2.8.
* More conventional layout (file path at top, file name at the bottom,
execute/cancel buttons in bottom right).
* Use of popovers to group controls, and allow for more descriptive
naming.
* Search box is always live now, just like Outliner.
Views:
* Date Modified column combines both date and time, also uses user
friendly strings for recent dates (i.e. "Yesterday", "Today").
* Details columns (file size, modification date/time) are now toggleable
for all display types, they are not hardcoded per display type.
* File sizes now show as B, KB, MB, ... rather than B, KiB, MiB, … They
are now also calculated using base 10 of course.
* Option to sort in inverse order.
Vertical List View:
* This view now used a much simpler single vertical list with columns
for information.
* Users can click on the headers of these columns to order by that
category, and click again to reverse the ordering.
Icons:
* Updated icons by Jendrzych, with better centering.
* Files and folders have new icons in Icon view.
* Both files and folders have reworked superimposed icons that show
users the file/folder type.
* 3D file documents correctly use the 3d file icon, which was unused
previously.
* Workspaces now show their icon on Link/Append - also when listed in
the Outliner.
Minor Python-API breakage:
* `bpy.types.FileSelectParams.display_type`: `LIST_SHORT` and
`LIST_LONG` are replaced by `LIST_VERTICAL` and `LIST_HORIZONTAL`.
Removes the feature where directories would automatically be created if
they are entered into the file path text button, but don't exist. We
were not sure if users use it enough to keep it. We can definitely bring
it back.

Was kinda split in two different places (one allowed to modify given path to always get a valid one,
the other only checking for validity of given path), not nice - and broken in asset branch case.
So rather extended a bit FileList->checkdirf to handle both cases (modifying and non-modifying path).

(library) file.
Problem was in fact slightly wider, File space was nearly not taking into account
library navigation case and its 'virtual' directoris, except in a few places.
Add a wrapper around BLI_is_dir that also check for lib paths, and used it in
ED_file_change_dir(), such that we now always check path is a
valid directory - in the filebrowser context, not filesytem context. ;)

This adds support for dropping a filepath on an open file-selector to set that path.

It basically rewrites most of filelist.c, with some more limited changes in other areas of filebrowser.
From user perspective, it:
* Removes some info in 'long' drawing mode (owner, permissions) - OS-specific data that do not really matter in Blender!
* Makes short/long display 'fixed' size (among four choices, like thumbnails mode).
* Allows to list several layers of dirtree at once, in a flat way (inside .blend files and/or real directories).
* Consequently, adds datablocks types filtering.
* Uses way less RAM when listing big directories, especially in thumbnail mode (we are talking of several hundred of MiB spared).
* Generates thumbnails way faster.
From code perspective, it:
* Is ready for asset engine needs (on data structure level in filebrowser's listing).
* Simplifies and makes 'generic' file listing much lighter.
* Separates file listing in three different aspects:
** 'generic' filelisting (in BLI), which becomes a shallow wrapper around stat struct.
** 'filebrowser drawing' filelisting, which only contains current visible subset of the whole list (sliding window), with extra drawing data (strings for size, date/time, preview, etc.).
** 'asset-ready' filelisting, which is used for operations common to 'basic' filehandling and future asset-related one.
* Uses uuid's to handle file selection/state in the browser, instead of using flags in filelisting items.
* Uses much lighter BLI_task handling for previews, instead of heavy 'job' system (using the new 'notifier' timer to handle UI refresh, in similar way to jobs).
* Moves .blend datablocks preview handling to IMB_thumbnail (necessary to avoid storing all datablock previews at once, and gives better consistency and performances too).

Adds support for selecting/deselecting files in File Browser using the
arrow keys. All directions (up, down, left, right) are possible.
When to Select, When to Deselect?
Standard behaviour is selecting, however if we move into a block of
already selected files (meaning 2+ files are selected) we start
deselecting
Possible Selection Methods
Simple selection (arrow-key): All other files are deselected
Expand selection (Shift+arrow key): Add to/remove from existing
selection
ill-Expand selection (Ctrl+Shift+arrow key): Add to/remove from existing
selection and fill everything in-between
From which file do we start navigating?
From each available selection method (Mouse-, Walk-, All-, Border
Select), we use the last selected file. If there's no selection at all
we use the first (down/right arrow) or last (up/left arrow) file.
(Ideally, the view would automatically be set to the new selection, but
this behaviour overlaps with an other patch I've been working on, so
prefer to do that separately)
(Also tweaks color for highlighted file for better feedback)

Reported by maxon through IRC, thanks.
Invalid (inexistant) bookmarks would not be selectable, hence not removable.
First, made invalid bookmarks grayed out in lists, so that user knows when there are some.
Then, added a new 'cleanup' operator that removes all invalid bookmarks.
This solution may not be completely satisfaying, but should do the work for now.
I do not want to add back those ugly 'X' delete buttons for each entry in list,
so better solution would be to make UIList able to select several items at once...
|
|
Bookmarks are now editable (i.e. you can rename them, and reorder them).
They are also listed in regular UILists, so you can filter/sort them as usual too.
Also, FileBrowser 'T' side area is changed to something similar to 3DView one,
in this case because we need op panel to remain at the bottom, and later because
we'll more than likely need tabs here!

There is a bunch of internal refactoring going on too:
* No longer use operators to handle these directory and file fields, only makes
things more complicated than they should be.
* Handle autocomplete partial/full match deeper in the UI code
* Directory field still does not keep focus, that's for another time to fix,
you can already do pretty quick keyboard only navigation with the file field.
