* Copy/Paste operators for F-Modifiers
Available in Graph and NLA Editors. Use the Copy/Paste buttons beside the 'Add Modifier' buttons.
Copy copies all the modifiers of the ACTIVE F-Curve or Strip depending on the editor.
Paste pastes modifiers from the buffer to all the selected F-Curves or Strips, adding the new modifiers to the ends of each list.
* 'Stepped Interpolation' F-Modifier
This modifier holds each interpolated value from the F-Curve for several frames without changing the timing.
This allows to preview motions 'on-twos' for example without altering the timing, or having to go through setting heaps of keyframes. In this case, Andy wanted to use this for CG <-> StopMo.

This operator can be accessed from the "Action Clip" panel, and is used to include keyframes that have been added to a strip already in the NLA. Although this is not a recommended workflow, having this ability is useful at times.

Keymaps are now saveable and configurable from the user preferences, note
that editing one item in a keymap means the whole keymap is now defined by
the user and will not be updated by Blender, an option for syncing might be
added later. The outliner interface is still there, but I will probably
remove it.
There's actually 3 levels now:
* Default builtin key configuration.
* Key configuration loaded from .py file, for configs like Blender 2.4x
or other 3D applications.
* Keymaps edited by the user and saved in .B.blend. These can be saved
to .py files as well to make creating distributable configurations
easier.
Also, user preferences sections were reorganized a bit, now there is:
Interface, Editing, Input, Files and System.
Implementation notes:
* wmKeyConfig was added which represents a key configuration containing
keymaps.
* wmKeymapItem was renamed to wmKeyMapItem for consistency with wmKeyMap.
* Modal maps are not wrapped yet.
* User preferences DNA file reading did not support newdataadr() yet,
added this now for reading keymaps.
* Key configuration related settings are now RNA wrapped.
* is_property_set and is_property_hidden python methods were added.

Now the mute/protect/expand/etc. toggles are drawn using UI widgets. This means that special event handling code to determine when they were clicked on is no longer needed, and also means that there can now be tooltips for these items too.
Also, added visibility toggles for ID-block expanders, which will cause all the F-Curves in the linked datablock to not get drawn. The backend filtering code to make this work will come later...
|
|
This operator provides a quick way of toggling the muted-status of several strips at the same time.
|
|
Recoded the Transform code for NLA-Strips so that they can now be moved between strips and will not get truncated when they get moved into other non-moving strips.
Todos:
* The current code for moving strips between tracks is buggy (only goes up, and has a tendency to move up without being told to)
* Auto-snapping doesn't work yet...
|
|
* Added several API functions for Meta-Strips editing. One of these (flush transform) still needs a few tweaks before it does its job well enough for all cases.
* Meta strips are now drawn with a purple-ish colour. The start/end points of the strips they encompass are shown with lines along the length of the strips, with lines starting from the top indicating start-points and lines starting from the bottom indicating end-points.
* Meta strips can be made (i.e. strips can be assigned to meta-strips) by selecting some strips and pressing Shift-G.
Meta strips can be removed by selecting some meta-strips and pressing Alt-G.
* Strips can now be 'snapped' to start from: the current frame, the nearest frame, the nearest second, or the nearest marker; using the Shift-S hotkey.
'Islands' of adjacent selected strips occurring in the same track are moved together as a single strip so that the start-point of the first strip is on the sepcified time, but all the relative lengths of strips stay the same. Internally, temporary meta-strips are created to facilitate this.
|
|
Refactored the backend code/API's to support 'meta' strips (i.e. strips containing other strips). These have been implemented to be nested to 'unlimited' depths (in terms of common usages that is, though there is a very remote chance of stack-overflow in theoretrical evil cases only that shouldn't ever be encountered in production).
This paves the way for implementing the necessary tweaks needed for the transform code (in addition to some cool user-level tricks)
|
|
* Using the Ctrl-Shift-M hotkey, F-Modifiers can be added to all the selected strips.
* F-Modifiers can also be added/tweaked from the NLA N-Key properties. The UI now uses the same code as for the graph editor ones.
The UI drawing here is currently messed up from the NLA side, since it seems combining normal layout stuff and old-style uiBlocks doesn't seem to work too well (BUT! the buttons are at least functional).
Next up, I'll need to recode the buttons panel for the Graph Editor so that all of the drawing can be migrated over to use the new layout engine.

These operators may be temporary only, depending on if a workable solution via transform is found.
* PageUp moves strips into the track above if there's space
* PageDown moves strips into the track below if there's space
* Also fixed a button-alignment bug in the DopeSheet header
|
|
These two operators work only on Action-Clip strips.
* Clear (Alt-S) resets the scale of selected strips to 1.0
* Apply (Ctrl-A) applies the scale of the selected strips to their referenced Actions. If this referenced Action is also used by several other strips, a copy of the Action is made, and the scaling is applied to that Action instead.
|
|
This deletes all the strips in the relevant (selected) tracks too.
|
|
* Clicking on NLA tracks while in TweakMode now works so that channels can be muted/protected/expanded as per usual. However, they cannot be selected, as changing the selection state can interfere with TweakMode state changes
* Operators for animation channel-lists now use proper poll callbacks, which also take into account TweakMode where appropriate (i.e. all selection operators are now allowed to operate in NLA while in TweakMode, and all other operators will only work in Animation Editors)
* Action Editor operators now use the poll callback for Action Editors/DopeSheet instead of the generic active-araa one.
|
|
It is now possible to Duplicate Strips again. Strips are added into the first available space in the track above the original track (or a new track above the original if there wasn't any space).
Also, separated out the 'add' operators into their own menu. This might need to be changed later...
|
|
== Transitions ==
Transition strips are now able to be created + evaluated. Transitions allow for interpolation between the endpoints of two adjacent strips in the same track (i.e. two strips which occur in the same track one after the other, but with a gap between them).
- The current behaviour when only one endpoint affects some setting is non-optimal, since it appears somewhat inconsistently extend/replace values...
- Transform code needs a few fixes still to deal with these
== Strip Adding Operators ==
* New strips referencing Actions can be added using the Shift-A hotkey while in the strips-area. You must have a track selected first though.
The new strip will get added, starting from the current frame, in the selected track(s) only if there is enough space to do so. Otherwise, the new strip gets added at the top of the stack in a new track.
* New transition strips can be added with the Shift-T hotkey while in the strips area. You must have two adjacent strips selected for this to work.
== New Backend Methods ==
* Recoded the strip/track adding API to be more flexible
* Added a new method for testing whether F-Curve has any modifiers of with certain attributes. Will be used in a later bugfix...
== Bugfixes ==
- Fixed bug with strip-blending which caused the blending modes to be useless.
- NLA buttons now use proper poll callbacks instead of defining checks
- Commented out missing operator in menus, silencing warnings in console
- Removed obsolete/incorrect comments

In response to user-feedback, I've changed the order in which channels appear. Now, the channel ordering is:
- Object/AnimData block
-- Active Action
-- Last NLA Track
..
..
-- First NLA Track
It is important to note several things still:
1) Active action is applied AFTER the NLA Tracks have been evaluated, not before
2) In this new order, the tracks+active action are shown in the evaluation-stack order, i.e. first thing applied is at the bottom, last is at the top.
As a result, I've switched the view-orientation back so that it works the same way as for DopeSheet/Graph editors (i.e. expands downwards not upwards). This may cause problems loading files saved with older builds of this branch. There are still some lingering problems due to this change which I'll fix in due course.
|
|
New tracks can be added in the following ways (with the mouse hovering over the channels-list):
* Shift-A - this will add a new track at the top of the stack (i.e. above all the existing NLA-tracks but below the Active Action) for every AnimData block where there was a selected NLA-Track
* Ctrl-Shift-A - this will add a new track above every selected one
|
|
Selected NLA Strips are split into two strips, each with half the length of the original strip.
Possible improvements subject to demand:
- multiple splits?
- splits with variable spacing? (i.e. 3:2, or 1:5).
|
|
These work in the same way as the ones in the Action Editor...
|
|
|
|
If anyone's doing any testing at this point, please check if this works ok for files with new/old NLA Editors, as I was having some problems with one of my testing (saved from this branch) files with this.

* Fixed an evil bug where the last frame of a strip was always incorrectly evaluated.
This was because these frames were not being included in the strip's 'range' as defined by the IN_RANGE() testing macro, which only considers the given range as an open interval (i.e. non-inclusive of boundary points). I've added a new macro, IN_RANGE_INCL(), which is inclusive of boundary points, since this is a common test in many other parts of the code.
* When an AnimData block is in 'tweaking' mode, the tracks following (and including the active track) are now correctly skipped during evaluation.
* Finished coding the option of setting a single NLA-track per NLA-block to play 'solo' (i.e. only that track is enabled for evaluation).
To enable this, simply click on one of the grey 'dots' beside the NLA-track names, turning this dot yellow. The 'yellow' dot means that the track will play by itself (even the 'active action' gets silenced). Only one track per AnimData block can play solo at a time. To disable, simply click on the 'yellow' dot again.
NOTE: this currently uses the View3D layer-status icons. We probably need some special ones for these later (coloured vs grey star?)
* Also (not related to evaluation) made the selection operators for the NLA Editor only work when not in tweaking mode, since in tweaking mode they can potentially result in data being resolved inappropriately when leaving tweaking mode.

In this commit, I've introduced the mechanism by which actions already referenced by strips used in the NLA can be edited (or 'tweaked'). To use, simply select a strip you wish to edit, and hit that TAB key to start tweaking that strip's action, and hit TAB again once you're done.
What happens when you enter 'tweak mode':
1) The action of the active strip temporarily becomes the 'active action' of the AnimData block. You are now able to edit this in one of the Animation Editors (DopeSheet/Action, Graph Editors) as per normal (i.e. sliding keyframes around, inserting keyframes, etc.). The 'action-line' will therefore get drawn immediately above the active track containing the active strip, so that it's clear that that's what we're editing.
2) All the NLA-tracks (and all the strips within them) that occur after the track that the active strip lived in get disabled while you're in tweakmode. This is equivalent to travelling back to an earlier state in a construction history stack.
3) The active NLA track also gets disabled while in tweakmode, since it would otherwise interfere with the correct functioning of the tweaking for the action of interest.
4) The 'real' active action (i.e. the one displaced by the active strip's action) gets put into temp storage, and will be restored after you exit tweakmode.
5) Any strips which also reference the action being tweaked will get highlighted in red shading to indicate that you may be making some changes to the action which you don't really want to make for the other users too.
Please note though, that this is only a rough prototype of this functionality, with some niceties still to come. i.e.:
* NLA-tracks after the active track should still get drawn above the 'tweaking action line', but perhaps with different appearance?
* Various tools will still need awareness of this to prevent corrupting operations from taking place. How to proceed is still undecided...
* When exiting tweak-mode, the strip the action came from still needs some form of syncing with the modified action... there are a few tricky issues here that will need to be solved
* Evaluation code doesn't totally take this into account yet...
---
Also, fixed a number of bugs with various code (notably selection, and also a few drawing bugs)
|
|
* Added click-select/left-right select and deselect all/invert all selection operators. For now, these basic operators will suffice (more advanced selection operators will be coded at a later stage).
* Fixed a few bugs in DopeSheet found while coding the relevant tools for NLA.
* Added custom border-select operator for NLA channels (since the standard one assumes negative direction channel order)
* Added new API-method for NLA strips to check if the strip occurs within a given range, since this test needed to be performed in a few places...
* Tweaked the NLA Editor View2D ranges a bit to give saner default sizing. This still isn't right yet though.
|
|
'UI Work'
* Added more drawing code for drawing NLA data
* Made the operators for the 'channel-list' of NLA work. A special version of borderselect for the NLA channel-list (due to the different vertical order) still needs to be coded though.
'Push Down' tool
The active action of each AnimData block, represented by the reddy/orange channel, can be added to the NLA stack as a new action by using the 'snow-flake' icon/button (probably need a special icon for this later). This will add a new NLA track and an NLA strip referencing this action. The AnimData block's 'active action' slot will then be left empty.
(Unfortunately, there still seems to be a bug here, which I'll check on later)
|

Implemented some basic strip-drawing code with some hardcoded colours. These colours will be made into theme colours at some point, but the aim is to use different colours as indicators of the 'state' of the strip (i.e. active/being tweaked, uses the same action as the strip being tweaked, selected, normal).
This is not yet usable though...
|
|
In this commit, I've only setup the drawing code for the channels list. Only the drawing of the 'active action' dummy-line has been tested so far.
|
|
Basics for the remaining 6 spacetypes.
Note: Andrea prefers to merge SpaceImaSel with SpaceFile
for that I'll provide a good readfile.c patch later
