this means use of deprecated struct members gives a warning.
- makesdna.c preprocessor skips this.
- DNA_DEPRECATED_ALLOW is used so readfile.c can do versioning without warnings.
- this exposes some use of deprecated struct members, will deal with this after.

Spline IK and Auto-IK working together on the same bone chain could
crash due to the somewhat hacky way that they were sharing the same
list for the "iktree" forest. Resolved by doing what I should have
done from the beginning, and made Spline-IK save its ik chains off
into a separate list.
While this fixes the crash, it might be worth investigating outright
disabling this from working in this case, since it can be a bit
confusing to have it appear to not work.

- change short -> char for flags that support it.
- add pose 'temp' pointer to use for outliner drawing (was using 'prev' and restoring which seems dodjy)

the Outliner
Channels which can be renamed include:
- Scenes, Objects, World, Material, Texture, etc. (i.e. "ID-blocks",
or the dark and light blue channels)
- Action Groups (green channels)
- Action expanders (i.e. "CubeAction", "WorldAction", etc.)
- Grease Pencil stuff
Channels which CANNOT be renamed, as they mostly use hardcoded values
or otherwise include:
- Drivers expander
- FCurves (they don't technically have a "name"; what is shown is just
a user-friendly representation of their rna_paths)

== Datablock filters in the headers are now hidden by default ==
This has been done because users were generally not frequently
toggling these, so quick access vs screen-estate cost wasn't really
worth it to have these always showing and taking up space on the
header.
Usage notes:
- To show these again, click on the "Filter more..." toggle.
- The "Filter more..." button DOES NOT affect whether those filters
apply.
Design notes:
- I tried many other button/icon combinations, but those were either
too space-hogging, vague, or had wrong button order.
- I also tried putting a box around these, but there was too much
padding.
- The ordering of the filters has also been modified a bit so that the
group/fcurve-name filters occur earlier in the list, given that
they're used more frequently
== Graph Editor - Use Fancy Drawing ==
Renamed this option to "Use High Quality Drawing" as suggested by
Matt. "Fancy" isn't really descriptive enough.
== Icons for Mode Dropdowns ==
The mode dropdowns in the DopeSheet and Graph Editors now have icons.
- These were important enough (compared to the auto-snap mode) that
some visual decoration was perhaps warranted.
- It makes it easier to see at a glance what mode the view is in
Icon choices:
- In some cases, the icons seem like quite a natural fit IMO (i.e.
outliner<->dopesheet, key<->shapekey editor, grease pencil, fcurve
editor)
- Action Editor uses an "object" icon to indicate that this is object-
level only for now (though I hope to find a way to address this
soon/later). This will be kept like this until then.
- There isn't any icon for drivers, so after trying a few
alternatives, I settled on area-link icon, since it ties together two
entities using some link.

Actions now get tagged with an ID-code, which is used to determine
what ID-blocks they can be assigned to. This ensures that material
actions cannot be assigned to the object-level for example.
* Action lists in general will now show only the actions that can be
set for that particular slot. This prevents selection of invalid
actions, and helps cut down the list of actions.
** An exception here is the Add Action Clip in NLA Editor, which will
show all actions but will only add where appropriate. This is because
it's not easy/possible to tell in advance which blocktypes to filter
for when building this list. (TODO?)
* The "Action Editor" is now strictly for object-level action
editing+setting now. This avoids repeateded confusion by people who
try using this to view their shapekey actions, which should go to the
Shape Key Editor instead!
** A context switcher for the legitimate times where this capability
might come in handy is still being investigated.
* "Floating" actions (i.e. actions in some action_library.blend) are
NOT able to be automatically tagged until they are assigned to some
datablocks (i.e. loaded onto the rig + played back once). It is
possible to write scripts that check for certain RNA-paths and "guess"
what datablocks they work on, but it is recommended that you load up
the Datablocks Viewer, and go through such actions by hand, setting
the "ID Root Type" property as appropriate per action.

I'm finally yielding to months of feature requesting, and adding
support for filtering F-Curves by name, where the "name" here is the
text which is displayed for each F-Curve in the Animation Editor
channel lists.
To use, just enable the magnifying-glass toggle on the DopeSheet
filtering settings, and enter a snippet of text to find within the
names of channels you wish to filter. This is case insensitive, and
currently doesn't support any wildcard/regrex fanciness.
Some examples:
loc <--- location curves only
x loc <--- x location curves only
x eul <--- x rotation curves only
rot <--- rotation curves only
etc.

Pose Proxy: layer settings only saved the 16 bits for proxy armatures, was
still a short, whilst the other layer settings use ints.
|
|
These were markers which belonged to an action instead of the scene,
and are used by PoseLib to keep track of where poses are.
To restore this, I've made this only available in Action/Shapekey
Editor modes, and only when an action is being shown and the "Show
Pose Markers" option in the Markers menu has been enabled. Other than
that, all the standard marker operators apply now (instead of using a
separate set of special operators).
|

Remove pose channel select, this is for internal use on read/write only.
Its possible to have a convenience attribute but rather not fake bone data being in the pose channel. just access pose_bone.bone.select
|
|
- fixed bug in paste material, exposed by stricter warnings.
- removed/renamed various shadowed vars.
- removed BGE lamp.colour, only allow lamp.color attribute.
|
|
|
|
- incorrect range check broke ZYX euler rotations, use MIN/MAX constants so this doesn't happen again.
- BGE Armature PyAPI also wasn't using correct min/max with rotation modes.
- clamp on file read rather then when calling the rotation functions, so developers don't use invalid args without realizing it.
- added assert() checks for debug builds so invalid axis constants don't slip through.
|
|
By just removing these vars (commenting them out), we were getting alignment errors which were causing crashes when loading old files with armatures (crash in armature drawing code).
Fortunately I happen to be working on a little project right now, and caught this :)
|
|
|
|
Fix for one of the causes of crashing.
Applying armature deform wasn't thread safe since the pose bones had deform data written into them when deforming a mesh.
This fixes crashing immediately, on every render for me but blender still crashes calculating the subsurf sometimes.
|
|
- removed DNA_brush_types.h from DNA_scene_types.h (and some other similar cases)
- removed DNA_wave_types.h (never used)
- removed Main.wave

Added new filtering option for animation editors (indicated as the 'ghost' toggle beside the 'select'(-ed only) toggle), which will include objects/bones that aren't visible (i.e. are hidden or on a hidden layer).
This should make it possible to edit such types of animation, and also prevent flickering as these channels come in/out of view.
|
|
- #22155: keyframe dots not shown on path for bone keyframes that aren't in a group with a matching name. Since this situation is going to become more common in 2.5, I've added an option which will alternatively just search the entire action to find all F-Curves associated with bones. The old option is still the default though for the general cases.
- When keyframe drawing is enabled, the current frame will also be indicated on the path now as a (bigger) green dot, as requested by William. This makes it easier to see the position on the path on the current frame.

playback in one particular scene with 3 characters go from 10 to 13 fps.
(commit 27728 by Brecht from render25 branch)
|
|
|
|
Revised the conditions under which motion paths get recalculated after transforms (when auto-keying is enabled). Now, the type of path display does not matter, but rather that the object/bone in question has any paths at all. This makes animating with these a much smoother experience.
|
|
animation. currently supports translate and extend.
TODO:
- select markers in dope sheet.
- transform time scale.
|
|
Added a new option to filter the out Object-level (i.e. transforms, object visibility/settings, and also bone animation) animation data from the channels list. As most of these settings are transforms, I've used the transform manipulator icon and named the RNA setting display_transforms.
This is useful when trying to filter out only material animation data for example, as requested by Colin.
|
|
Texture animation is now shown in the animation editors. Texture stacks are shown for each Material/Lamp/World block that uses them.
There is currently still a bit of a bug with this which means that unless the owner of the texture stack is animated too, the animation data for the textures won't show up. This will get rectified soon though.

are members of the specified group
Between the datablock filtering options and the auto-snapping menu in the headers of Animation Editors, there is a new toggle for enabling this new feature (only when there are groups in the scene). Enabling this, a field to enter/select a group in the scene to filter with, will appear beside it.
This feature has been added to make it easier to manage animating multiple character shots in Durian.
By assigning the rigs of several bandits to a single group, or Sintel and her staff to another group, or Sintel and the guardians to another group, and so on, it is possible to filter the animation data shown in the editors to a useful subset of the total motion in the scene.
This makes it easier to retime or edit the motions of one set of characters and their props without affecting the motions of other no-related objects. The downside is that there is a bit more setup work required upfront, but that's probably a small price to pay for some groupings that may be useful in other ways too later (perhaps for compositing or lighting work).

editors and the Graph Editor
Action Groups can now be expanded/collapsed in DopeSheet editors without the same thing happening in the Graph Editor, and visa versa.
This should help improve the workflow, since the channel lists are generally kept more compact in the DopeSheet, while they are more expanded in the Graph Editor, so less time is spent expanding/collapsing stuff. Also this should hopefully alleviate some of the errors from accidentally deleting and then having to restore channels that were not intended to be deleted.
Also, switched the order of the expand/collapse hotkeys (in the channels list region) for channels so that Ctrl +/- now expands/collapses selected channels only, while +/- expands/collapses all channels. This should make it more convenient to quickly open up all groups to select F-Curves for the Graph Editor.
|
|
- In 2.4x, this setting was the lock button in the headers.
- Now, this option can be found in the View menus of all relevant editors
- Basically, this option toggles whether objects (using animation data that's being edited) get updated during animation editor transforms to give realtime feedback on the effects of tweaks.
- By default, this is enabled, since this fits in nicer with 2.5's everything 'live' paradigm. However, it is recommended to disable this on slower computers or when updates for heavy rigs are causing too much workflow lag
- Also, removed some old crufty settings from action editor data

* Finished baking code for motion paths, generalising it so that it works for both Objects and Bones.
It is based on the old code for baking bones, although I have modified the updating code to use a more 'correct' method of updating dependencies. However, this may turn out to be too slow, and another API method should be added for that...
* Moved some of the old version-patching code for animviz settings out of the drawing functions, instead doing this on the version patching proper.
* Added RNA support for the new AnimViz types, and included RNA access via their users too. The old settings have still been left in for now, since there are still some things not ready to use yet.
----
* F-Curve's with sample points (i.e. sounds to F-Curves) now perform linear interpolation between sample points instead of using constant interpolation.
|

Brecht and I took a fair bit of convincing on this one however Cessen was jumping through hoops to do without this feature.
Having the shape being an external mesh deformed by its own armature, which were both hidden but in the same layer *(so the depgraph would update them).
Without this some of the bones in the rig also dont make much sense when animating with.
|

This commit sets up some of the groundwork necessary to extend the animation visualisation capabilities, previously only available for bones in PoseMode, to Objects as well. Also, some of the other goals of this refactor is to make future visualisation goodies (i.e. editable paths) more feasible...
(There's really nothing to see here yet. The following log notes are really just for my own reference to keep track of things.)
Currently, the following things have been done:
* New datastructures + settings have been tidied up, ready for usage
* Added these new types into the Object and PoseBone code as necessary, with freeing/adding/copying accounted for
* File IO code for the new data, including version patching to convert the old system to the new one.
* Set up the drawing system for motionpaths based on the old armature path drawing code. Armatures still draw using the old system, since the two systems use different storage systems.
* Started setting up the motionpath 'baking' code, but the core of this still needs to be coded...
Next Steps (after some semi-urgent Durian Driver changes):
* Port the ghosting/onionskinning code over too
* Finish motionpath baking code
* RNA wrapping for the new types
* Hooking up all the new code into the operators, etc.
|
|
* Mesh data/settings can now be animated. It is not recommended that geometry be animated directly, but other settings such as autosmooth, etc. can be...
* Code cleanups for depsgraph, making sure that drivers get included for all object data types.

'B' border select
This bug was caused by my recent commit to get bone select -> selection syncing working. The selection flushing was occurring too readily, blocking any selection tools from having any visible effect. Now this syncing is only triggered when appropriate notifiers+flags have been set.
|
|
every instance of an BPyStructRNA to have its own dictionary, set the tp_dictoffset to 0. attempted to use __slots__ but this doesnt work for some reason.
- made bone.length writable
|
|
Now when nodes are keyed, they will show up in the dopesheet/graph editor/etc in a new 'Nodetree' category.
Still a major problem left, nodes need unique names in order for the rna paths to hold animation data properly...
|
|
* Convert all code to use new functions.
* Branch maintainers may want to skip this commit, and run this
conversion script instead, if they use a lot of math functions
in new code:

At last, this commit introduces the Spline IK Constraint to Blender. Spline IK is a constraint that makes n bones follow the shape of a specified curve.
Simply add a chain of bones, add a curve, add a Spline IK Constraint to the tip bone and set the number of bones in the chain to make it work. Or, try the following test file:
http://download.blender.org/ftp/incoming/250_splineik_spine01.blend
Screenshots of this in action (as proof):
http://download.blender.org/ftp/incoming/b250_splineik_001_before.png
http://download.blender.org/ftp/incoming/b250_splineik_001_after.png
I've implemented this in a similar way to how standard IK solvers are done. However, this code is currently not an IK plugin, since I imagine that it would be useful to be able to combine the 2 types of IK. This can be easily changed though :)
Finally, a few notes on what to expect still:
* Constraint blending currently doesn't affect this. Getting that to work correctly will take a bit more work still.
* Options for not affecting the root joint (to make it easier to attach the chain to a stump or whatever), and non-uniform scaling options have yet to be added. I've marked the places where they can be added though
* Control over the twisting of the chain still needs investigation.
Have fun!

|
* Summary channel now works in DopeSheet AND Action Editors
* By clicking on the expand/collapse widget on the summary channel, you can now show/hide all the other channels in the editor.
|
|
Added a summary channel that appears as the first channel in the DopeSheet. For now, this is disabled by default, but can be enabled using the 'Summary' toggle in the header between the mode selector and the standard filtering options. This has been done, since there is a possibility that it will make the DopeSheet run a bit slower.
In this channel you can do everything that you can normally do with DopeSheet channels (i.e. select, transform, edit, etc). It might be worth noting though that care probably needs to be taken when trying to use Copy/Paste, since that is still a bit fidgety...
In the process, I've fixed a few bugs, mostly with selection:
- Selecting keyframes in scene summaries wouldn't work
- Border select only worked in F-Curve and Group channels
|
|
Animating rotations using different rotation modes should now work more often than before.
Previously, quaternion and axis-angle values were stored in the same variable in DNA, but that was causing problems with other animation curves overwriting the values and causing the rotations to not work as expected.
There are still some issues, but I'll track those down later tonight
|
|
Hopefully this fixes all of the cases which broke.
