inittime in each stroke (value returned by PIL_check_seconds_timer() func), and then a delta time for each of its points, relative to that inittime.
These timing data can then be used during conversion to Curve objects, to create a path animation (i.e. an Evaluation Time F-Curve) exactly reproducing the drawing movements.
Aside from this "main feature", the patch brings several fixes/enhancements:
* Stroke smoothing/simplifying will no more move the start/end points of a stroke (this was rather annoying sometimes!).
* Also optimized smoothing code (even though not really noticeable on a modern computer, it now uses less memory and runs faster).
* When converting to curve, you now have the following new possibilities:
** Normalize the weight values (currently, they will get "stroke width * 0.1", i.e. would range by default from 0.0 to 0.3...).
** Scale the radius values to your liking (again, currently they are set from stroke width times 0.1)!
** Link all strokes into a single curve, using zero-radius sections (this is mandatory to use the dynamic feature!).
Here is a small demo video: http://youtu.be/VwWEXrnQAFI
Will update user manual later today.

without the underscores these clogged up the namespace for autocompleation which was annoying.

It is now possible to make Grease Pencil Layers to keep displaying and editing the current sketch-frame with this option. This allows to draw a frame which contains markings made for different times (i.e. a spacing/timing chart that you can keep adding to as you scrub to different points on the timeline).
Use the clipboard/camera toggle (the one beside the visibility toggle) to enable. This should get an icon of its own at some point...

shapes in 3D easier since it wont stick to every depth the line passes through.
- use a 8x8 area when finding stroke depths since thin lines can get ignored if the point is not close enough to them.

draw over existing grease pencil lines. makes it easuer to draw 3D shapes with grease pencil.

in the 3D view panel.
- account for parts of the line going off into infinity by making the stroke stretch between the last valid depth values (like an elastic band), if the endpoints are not over any geometry then use the closest valid depth.

* Wrapped Grease Pencil datatypes in RNA.
* Hooked up Grease Pencil access in RNA (i.e. via Main, ID, and Scene)
TODO:
Updates to properties are currently lacking property-update calls, since there's no good notifier for this.

Patch from Joshua, converting Grease Pencil to 2.5.
All GP data now is an ID block, allowing re-use, link and append.
For better contextual control within 2.5, these GP ID's will get
linked to actual data, like NodeTrees, Scenes, Images or Objects.
That will ensure Undo works, and opens up exciting new use cases
as well. :)
Patch note: on reading files, GPencils linked from editors will
get moved to the main library, using standard naming (indicating
where it was used), and with "Fake User" set. That way the user
can manually relink the pencils where appropriate.
We can check on just linking GP to some default, like 3d window
pencils to Scene? Nice to experiment with.
Notes for Joshua:
- for reading old GPencil, it has to use old code as well, meaning
to tread data as "indirect data, within another ID".
- Saving ID data means the chunk in file BHead needs the ID_GD code,
and not "DATA", which indicates 'indirect data'. That's the file
format spec.
- I've added do_versions_gpencil_2_50(), feel free to further tweak
things here, like linking things to scene or so.
- Formerly GPencil saved 2.50 files won't convert gpencil

* Fix for #17808: Can't compile using SunCC - gpencil.c uses DOS line endings.
Added some svn-properties on gpencil files and also keyframing ones that I added, so that this shouldn't be a problem anymore.
* In Node Editor, it is now possible to close an open Grease Pencil panel when there is no node-tree being shown (i.e. after switching between node editing modes)

Drawing Improvements:
* Single 'dots' now draw rounded
* Strokes being drawn are drawn 'solid' instead of as dotted lines
Eraser:
* Now operates interactively, so no more wait to see if stuff was erased
* An influence circle is now drawn - the radius of this is defined as the thickness^2
|
|
Just a little commit so that I can transfer some changes back over to laptop.
* Line drawing should now be improved for most cases, but acute angles still need more work to reduce 'shrinking' artifacts. As such, this is still hidden behind 'rt' setting
* Preparation work for Grease-Pencil in Image Editor, and also 'Stick to View' for Image/Sequence editors.

This commit introduces the ability to erase strokes. Admittedly, the code for this is not totally stable yet, and doesn't always produce optimum results. I'm committing now for backup purposes.
It currently uses the lasso code to check whether segments of the strokes (a segment occurs between two recorded points) occur inside a region defined by the 'eraser' stroke, or any intersections it makes with the 'eraser' stroke.
There are multiple ways to erase strokes:
* With 'Draw Mode' on, use RMB-drag to erase
* With a tablet, use the 'eraser' end of the stylus
* Hold the Alt Key, and use the 'selection' mouse-button (i.e. LMB if mouse-button swapping is on, RMB otherwise) to erase. For this one, this is necessary to avoid overriding the view-rotation hotkey combo for 2-button mice!
Todo:
* 3d-strokes are not correctly mapped back to screen-space for sampling yet
* Drawing of eraser strokes is still not distinctive enough
* After running a few times, may cause stack corruption/segfaults, so be careful!
== Bugfixes ==
* Grease-Pencil Onion-Skinning works again. Onionskining was being supplied the wrong frames, and the alpha factor was still the old one used for 0-255 ranged colour values

Just preparation work for an eraser tool (as well as the code of a failed attempt at an implementation).
|
|
New Stuff:
* Alt-XKEY / Alt-DelKey will now activate the Grease Pencil "Erase" menu. This will only show up when it's relevant (i.e. when there exists Grease Pencil data). It should make it faster to quickly delete the last stroke made. This hotkey has been added to the tooltips of the relevant buttons.
* Finished off colouring of 'active' layers panel so that they are now easily identify-able. This could also be done for Constraints, but the 'active' one isn't that important there.
Bugfixes:
* Fixed bug with drawing gp-data sources in the Action Editor, which resulted in missing icons.
* Fixed buttons in Grease Pencil panel. My hasty attempt last night at making the Action Editor to refresh was causing problems.
* Added a (hopefully temporary) button that will be used to prevent drawing from occurring with Shift-LMB. This is useful when trying to select stuff sometimes, with LMB as select-button, especially when selecting a bunch of closely spaced bones might be interpreted as a new stroke.

Based on user feedback, I've made some changes to the Grease Pencil UI (most notably in 'Time Editing' facilities).
* 'Edit Timing' button gone
* Pin button and '<Grease Pencil Data' string gone from Action Editor
* Action Editor in 'Grease Pencil' mode now displays all grease-pencil datablocks for current screen.
* AE: GP-Datablocks are drawn like 'groups', with an expand/collapse button to show/hide layers. Its name shows the type of space it comes from, and shows indicative status info (i.e. for 3d-view, it shows view-angle)
* Added refresh calls for action editor after editing relevant data.
I haven't tested all tools yet, but most should be stable.
Also, I've removed some unnecessary buttons, and added a few tooltips. There's also some experimental code to try to get clearer indication of 'active' layer.

Grease Pencil is a tool which allows you to draw freehand in some views, allowing you to annotate/scribble over the contents of that view in either 2d or 3d. This facilitates many easier communication and planning abilities.
To use, simply enable it from the View menu (choose 'Grease Pencil...' and click 'Use Grease Pencil'). Then, click+drag using the left-mouse button and the shift-key held to draw a stroke.
