Notifiers
---------
Various fixes for wrong use of notifiers, and some new notifiers
to make things a bit more clear and consistent, with two notable
changes:
* Geometry changes are now done with NC_GEOM, rather than
NC_OBJECT|ND_GEOM_, so an object does need to be available.
* Space data now use NC_SPACE|ND_SPACE_*, instead of data
notifiers or even NC_WINDOW in some cases. Note that NC_SPACE
should only be used for notifying about changes in space data,
we don't want to go back to allqueue(REDRAW..).
Depsgraph
---------
The dependency graph now has a different flush call:
DAG_object_flush_update(scene, ob, flag)
is replaced by:
DAG_id_flush_update(id, flag)
It still works basically the same, one difference is that it now
also accepts object data (e.g. Mesh), again to avoid requiring an
Object to be available. Other ID types will simply do nothing at
the moment.
Docs
----
I made some guidelines for how/when to do which kinds of updates
and notifiers. I can't specify totally exact how to make these
decisions, but these are basically the guidelines I use. So, new
and updated docs are here:

* Inserting keyframes now takes into account whether the F-Curve was editable or not.
* Editing keyframes in animation editors now sends proper depsgraph updates instead of just tagging the relevant objects.
Thanks JiriH for reporting these bugs.
|
|
* Made particle edit object-localized.
|
|
Directories intern/ and source/blender/ now compile warning
free again here with scons/gcc.
|
|
|
|
* Separated value and range sliders for the value into two separate rows. Value comes before the range settings since it's used more often, and is drawn as a slider instead.
* Tweaked ranges for the sliders so that they will work sanely.
|
|
* New NLA Tracks/Strips are now only created if the 'layered' button (visible in the timeline header when autokeying is on, and the playback is running) is enabled. This multiple bones to be able to be animated in the same action, but done in multiple passes.
* Made Alt-A work in timeline header too.
|
|
* When doing realtime recording of animation (i.e. transforming objects + bones while animation playback is running, and auto-keying is enabled), animation will be added to a new NLA Track+Strip combo everytime a single 'loop' of the frame range has finished. This will allow 'passes' over the animation to be less destructive.
* Made the evaluation of the active action (when NLA data is present), be handled as part of the normal NLA system evaluation code (as if it were just another strip in a track at the end). The immediate benefit is that there are now some settings (available in the "Animation Data" panel in the NLA Editor with a strip selected) which allow for the way the active action is combined with the NLA stack results. For instance, the way that the action extrapolates is used in the recording tweaks above.

Note that this is on in all cases now, it needs to be restricted to face extrude only.
Some slight transform operator cleanup too.
|
|
now refreshes the 3d-view in realtime.
For now, this directly sets the update flags, though this really should be calling the Depsgraph API instead.
|
|
Made transform confirm or cancel on mouse up. More inline with button clicking and better for tablets.
Add operator params to make sure Rip and Extrude turn off PET and Mirror correctly.
Note: sorry for all the whitespace changes, I need to reconfigure this editor not to do autocleanup.

* Rename BIF_transform/retopo.h to ED_transform/retopo.h
for consistency.
* Move MESH_OT_duplicate_add to editmesh_add.c.
* Remove some code from BIF_gl.h which is not needed there
anymore.
|
|
Brought back the basics for transform manipulators. Martin will
hook it all up to new transform system.
Some notes:
- Still uses G.moving
- BIF_do_manipulator() is called as a View3D Operator
I've tested selecting handles, added a print to confirm
- BIF_GetTransInfo() returns a dummy struct now, just to get
it running.
- Marked some other issues with XXX
|
|
Snap to nearest-second works again for NLA and Graph Editors
|
|
* The code to move strips between tracks now works (though it can still be a bit too eager to change tracks half-way through some transforms).
Strips are moved up/down one strip at a time, depending on whether there is any space in the next-track in the direction you direct it to move in.
* Auto-snapping works again. Also enabled snap-to-marker option for Graph Editor here.
|
|
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...
|
|
* Chains of selected strips are now converted to meta-strips before transforms begin, and converted back afterwards. This simplifies the transform code needed in later stages...
* Transform-flushing code for Meta-Strips should now work. There seems to be a little bit of numeric inaccuracy problems somewhere, as two strips which met at the same frame can get separated when scaling.
* Meta-strips now draw with proper text identification
* Snapping strips now properly clears meta-strips if a moved strip needs to be moved into a new track to be accomodated.
* Fixed a filter used by a selection-operator.

In TweakMode, the keyframes of the Active Action are now shown (and can be edited) in NLA-mapped time, with appropriate corrections applied when editing. This works in the DopeSheet and Graph Editors :)
To do this, got rid of the old wrappers/API-methods, replacing them with new-style ones. A few methods previously (in this branch) used only for evaluation are now used for this purpose too. As the same code is used for editing + evaluation, this should now be much better to work with.
I've only done a few brief tests now, but I think I might've muddled the invert-flags on one or two cases which I'll need to check out tomorrow. So, beware that there may be some weird and critical bugs for the next few days here...
Also, added proper license headers to new NLA files.
TODO:
- testing + bugfixing due to this commit
- show range of keyframes in NLA Editor active-action line
|
|
* Menu and header more complete now.
* Clean up Game Properties panel and moved View Properties panel
to python.
* Fix some drawing issues when combining tiles, repeat and aspect,
some also from 2.4x, these options didn't work together 100%.
|
|
* 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.

This commit restores transform support for NLA. Grab, scale, 'extend', and tweak (i.e. grab by just click+dragging) are implemented.
Notes:
- As soon as one end of a strip touches another adjacent strip (within the same track), that end stops moving. This has been done to avoid the situation where overlapping strips within the same track (which is not allowed) might be caused by transforms.
- Made some changes to the RNA setters for the strip extents so that the validation above could take place (and other necessary changes on a per-strip basis could also occur).
TODO's ?
- Strips cannot be transferred from track to track using transforms. I've yet to decide whether this needs to be done, or whether a separate operator will suffice.
- What happens to the range of Actions used when the strips change sizes unexpectedly (i.e. the no-overlap condition above)? Currently range stays the same, but this doesn't always seem desirable?

Transform helpline and experimental drawing code to indicate direction of motion for specific transformations.
|
|
Don't access RegionView3D if region is of the wrong type.
Correctly draw extra transform stuff (like snap and pet circles) in multiple 3d regions.
|
|
Please don't start adding exceptions like that in transform without asking first.
|
|
special_aftertrans_update can use it.
* text header needs a static char* so text is not rendered as gibberish. (until labels own their own strings)
* epy_doc_gen.py - write out a graphviz representation of the data api.
|
|
Add mising property find checks and remove uneeded param.
|
|
keymodifier bitflag work.
|
|
extracting params in split transform operators.
work in progress still, but lots of fun with operator replay (F6)
|
|
Only selected objects are now keyframed.
|
|
NOTE: upon further testing, quick-record-animation feature does not work with auto-ik yet. Although it would be desireable to have, it is not a priority at this point, since adding that would require a bit of reworking of that code for something it wasn't intended for.
|
|
- Auto-IK works again now.
- Quick-animate feature works with Auto-IK now.
- Also disabled the checks for existing animation data for this, making it easier to use/discover. At least we've got undo to cover for the cases where the user didn't intend to do this.
|

animate stuff quickly
To use, simply enable Auto-Keyframing and start the animation playback from the TimeLine.
Then at any time while the playback is still running (and Auto-Keyframing is still enabled), select any object/bone and start moving it around.
You can also select other objects/bones and move them around using standard transform tools (grab/rotate/scale), or exit transform for the active/selected object(s), and move on to other objects instead. Repeat until satisfactory!
This is similar to the old 'Record IPO' functionality (and/or is closer to the 'Mouse Recording' in 3DSMax), except it's much cooler, and is more flexible at the same time. It's
"good for quick and dirty tests, or things with timing, where it's easier to do it real time" - William Reynish, or "handycam effect or eyes animation" - Pepeland.
Additional Notes:
- for now, the objects that are used for this currently need some animation data already. This limitation is temporary.
- eventually, 'samples' (i.e. baked-data) not keyframes will be made by this tool as samples are more suitable for such large sets of densely spaced points

Auto-Keyframing does not work anywhere else yet, and probably won't for a while.
|
|
Now grabbing a single handle (auto/aligned) works correctly. One line of missing code mean that the handle recalculations were getting skipped.
|
|
partly operatorized though nothing hooked up yet.
|
|
* UV Editor Transform, translate, rotate, scale, live unwrap, snap, gesture,
etc work.
* Also for selection operators, used OPERATOR_FINISHED|OPERATOR_PASS_THROUGH
instead of just OPERATOR_PASS_THROUGH to make gestures work, seems more
correct to me.
|
|
Made 'select-tweak-grab' work in 3d window, fcurve and nodes.
For nodes it works with both left/right, the others follow
user preset for select.
Tweak is a WM event, which also follows user preset for
tablet-style tweaks (release = apply).
You enable tweak events with an operator WM_OT_tweak_gesture.
Keymap entries can assign to left/middle/right button or to
action/select button tweaks.

* Copy/Paste still needs to be cleaned up to be functional. Auto-set preview range + View All also need some work to become functional...
* Smooth has been moved to Alt-O hotkey, as Shift-O was taken for Sample
* Renamed a few operators for DopeSheet to be more in line with Graph Editor ones, and to be less obscure.
* The 'join' and 'remove doubles' tools are not likely to be restored. I think that a few of the new tools cover this lack anyway. We can restore them if there is a real need.
* Record tool needs a rethink to be genuinely useful, so it's not included here anymore.
A note for anyone wanting to play with implementing this: store the sampled points using the new FPoint type in the FCurve instead of using BezTriples, as FPoints are used for storing sampled/baked data.

I've ported the transform tools for this editor as they existed in the AnimSys2 branch (minus some of the experimental pivot options which were not useful enough yet).
Hotkeys are:
* GKEY - transforms points as always
* RKEY - rotates points (only useful for a single 'knot')
* SKEY - scales points
* EKEY - like in the DopeSheet, the 'extend' translation tool only moves all the keyframes on the same side of the current frame indicator as the mouse
Useful tweaks ported from AnimSys2 include:
* Auto-snapping is on by default for time-values on the keyframes only. Handles are not snapped (or shouldn't be).
* Rotating/Scaling new keyframes using default handles (i.e. Auto-Handles) now works, as the handle is now converted to aligned so that changes can be seen.

In the brief tests I did on a few rigs, this seems to work ok. Martin may want to check on the code for any cleanups that may be needed here.
Coming soon will be some modifications to the primative insert-key operator added earlier, so that Animato can be used to animate characters!
|
|
can transform the strips or move their handles
Still todo, click-drag transform, metastrips support, snapping, markers overlap checks and constrain to valid channels.
|

View3D four-split: added box-clip for the three ortho
windows. Is all on by default, waiting for headers and
buttons to come back.
Also: hotkey for foursplit now also removes it (toggle)
Also: window_to_3d() function only did delta's,
renamed it to window_to_3d_delta and coded a
real window_to_3d()
|
|
View3D has been split now in a local part (RegionView3D) and a
per-area part (old View3D). Currently local is:
- view transform
- camera zoom/offset
- gpencil (todo)
- custom clipping planes
Rest is in Area still, like active camera, draw type, layers,
localview, custom centers, around-settings, transform widget,
gridlines, and so on (mostly stuff as available in header).
To see it work; also added new feature for region split,
press SHIFT+ALT+CTRL+S for four-split.
The idea is to make a preset 4-split, configured to stick
to top/right/front views for three views.
Another cool idea to explore is to then box-clip all drawing
based on these 3 views.
Note about the code:
- currently view3d still stores some depricated settings, to
convert from older files. Not all settings are copied over
though, like custom clip planes or the 'lock view to object'.
- since some view3d ops are now on area level, the operators
for it should keep track of that.
Bugfix in transform: quat initialize in operator-invoke missed
one zero.
Als brought back GE to compile for missing Ipos and channels.

Finally, here is the basic (functional) prototype of the new animation system which will allow for the infamous "everything is animatable", and which also addresses several of the more serious shortcomings of the old system. Unfortunately, this will break old animation files (especially right now, as I haven't written the version patching code yet), however, this is for the future.
Highlights of the new system:
* Scrapped IPO-Curves/IPO/(Action+Constraint-Channels)/Action system, and replaced it with F-Curve/Action.
- F-Curves (animators from other packages will feel at home with this name) replace IPO-Curves.
- The 'new' Actions, act as the containers for F-Curves, so that they can be reused. They are therefore more akin to the old 'IPO' blocks, except they do not have the blocktype restriction, so you can store materials/texture/geometry F-Curves in the same Action as Object transforms, etc.
* F-Curves use RNA-paths for Data Access, hence allowing "every" (where sensible/editable that is) user-accessible setting from RNA to be animated.
* Drivers are no longer mixed with Animation Data, so rigs will not be that easily broken and several dependency problems can be eliminated. (NOTE: drivers haven't been hooked up yet, but the code is in place)
* F-Curve modifier system allows useful 'large-scale' manipulation of F-Curve values, including (I've only included implemented ones here): envelope deform (similar to lattices to allow broad-scale reshaping of curves), curve generator (polynomial or py-expression), cycles (replacing the old cyclic extrapolation modes, giving more control over this). (NOTE: currently this cannot be tested, as there's not access to them, but the code is all in place)
* NLA system with 'tracks' (i.e. layers), and multiple strips per track. (NOTE: NLA system is not yet functional, as it's only partially coded still)
There are more nice things that I will be preparing some nice docs for soon, but for now, check for more details:
http://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-taskforce25/2009-January/000260.html
So, what currently works:
* I've implemented two basic operators for the 3D-view only to Insert and Delete Keyframes. These are tempolary ones only that will be replaced in due course with 'proper' code.
* Object Loc/Rot/Scale can be keyframed. Also, the colour of the 'active' material (Note: this should really be for nth material instead, but that doesn't work yet in RNA) can also be keyframed into the same datablock.
* Standard animation refresh (i.e. animation resulting from NLA and Action evaluation) is now done completely separate from drivers before anything else is done after a frame change. Drivers are handled after this in a separate pass, as dictated by depsgraph flags, etc.
Notes:
* Drivers haven't been hooked up yet
* Only objects and data directly linked to objects can be animated.
* Depsgraph will need further tweaks. Currently, I've only made sure that it will update some things in the most basic cases (i.e. frame change).
* Animation Editors are currently broken (in terms of editing stuff). This will be my next target (priority to get Dopesheet working first, then F-Curve editor - i.e. old IPO Editor)
* I've had to put in large chunks of XXX sandboxing for old animation system code all around the place. This will be cleaned up in due course, as some places need special review.
In particular, the particles and sequencer code have far too many manual calls to calculate + flush animation info, which is really bad (this is a 'please explain yourselves' call to Physics coders!).

Another one back: editcurve.c
- removed global editNurb everywhere
(cu->editnurb now has listbase with edit data)
- also added 'active bpoint' and 'active nurb' in
Curve struct
- editmode in/out works, mouse/border select works
