Render:
- New; support for dual CPU render (SDL thread)
Currently only works with alternating scanlines, but gives excellent
performance. For both normal render as unified implemented.
Note the "mutex" locks on z-transp buffer render and imbuf loads.
- This has been made possible by major cleanups in render code, especially
getting rid of globals (example Tin Tr Tg Tb Ta for textures) or struct
OSA or using Materials or Texture data to write to.
- Made normal render fully 4x32 floats too, and removed all old optimizes
with chars or shorts.
- Made normal render and unified render use same code for sky and halo
render, giving equal (and better) results for halo render. Old render
now also uses PostProcess options (brightness, mul, gamma)
- Added option ("FBuf") in F10 Output Panel, this keeps a 4x32 bits buffer
after render. Using PostProcess menu you will note an immediate re-
display of image too (32 bits RGBA)
- Added "Hue" and "Saturation" sliders to PostProcess options
- Render module is still not having a "nice" API, but amount of dependencies
went down a lot. Next todo: remove abusive "previewrender" code.
The last main global in Render (struct Render) now can be re-used for fully
controlling a render, to allow multiple "instances" of render to open.
- Renderwindow now displays a smal bar on top with the stats, and keeps the
stats after render too. Including "spare" page support.
Not only easier visible that way, but also to remove the awkward code that
was drawing stats in the Info header (extreme slow on some ATIs too)
- Cleaned up blendef.h and BKE_utildefines.h, these two had overlapping
defines.
- I might have forgotten stuff... and will write a nice doc on the architecture!

Add text, TAB, CTR+Z, TAB -> crash... :/
Just forgot 1 if()... was there for weeks! So...

Pad-minus key didn't work in typemode transform().
Very easy, just flipping an && with || :)
|
|
Converting subsurf to mesh didn't display new Mesh object in correct wire,
when susurf was optimal.

channels to link texture to.
The amount of code changes seems large, but is mostly getting rind of
hardcoded values (6 and 8) for channels, replacing it with MAX_MTEX.
Further did some fixes;
- Ipo for Lamp showed too many mapping channels
- Texture MapTo buttons for lamp missed the slider to blend texture color
- Lamp texture mapping "View" only worked for Spot, now it uses lamp-
view vector for all types. (Nice for projections!)
|
|
(set directory, backbuf, scene)
- small annoyance; after extrude the transform() didn't react to the
"midtog" feature (middlemouse constraint)
|
|
When rotating camera itself in camera view, and choose local axis rotate,
the camera flipped around. Was due to using viewmat[][] while it changes...
Solved in the simplest elegant way; hope Martin will cope with this in new
transform!
|
|
Undo push missing after "ALT/SHIFT+D and ESC".
|
|
- Mesh editmode; SHIFT+F fill didnt set default vertex color
- Parented spotlight had wrong (black) dashed line to parent when selected
- Constraint line draw while transform wasn't reset, causing sometimes to
draw when using the (ugly) G.moving flag...
|
|
for our interactive 3d artists!
- AL+Z (potato) texture view now draws objects without Texture Faces
compliant with (new) default in engine. Meaning lit faces, using
Material RGB for diffuse and specular. It used to draw these as 'shaded'
which is quite useless.
Per definition, Potato mode is supposed to show what engine draws.
(Note; this only for Mesh objects)
- Added a couple of more calls to ensure Shaded drawmode updates on
changing RGB sliders, moving lamps to layers, or switch layers
This based on feedback from Mal, who'll also give it all good tests.
|
|
On large changes of the Lattice resolution button, the undopush crashed.
Reason was that the push happened for buttons before the actual event for
buttons was executed.
Solved by creating new event UNDOPUSH that's being added to the queue by
by buttons now.
- Made button undo texts for number buttons more clear
- Added undo push for missing Add lamp/empty/lattice/camera
|
|
In transform code the old global G.totvertsel was still used to define
centroid (editmesh). Replaced with nice local variable.
|
|
- loopselect doesnt work proper with vertices outside window
- outliner crash on script select (potential showstopper...)
- make curve parent menu, press ESC, crashed blender
All minimal changes in code. no new development, promised!
|
|
invalid pointer.
|
|
Some extrusions still use proportional mode when thats on. Was due to
adding transfrom('g') for non-normal extrude. Made it new code 'h'
|
|
work when there are a lot, eh :)
|
|
Original commit message:
"Cosmetic change (after bugreport), scaling in axis (press X,Y,Z) now prints in header "local" too, this to indicate it only does local scales."
The solution was half good, since only object mode is restricted to local axis constraints. Fixed by checking for the Local flag (which was properly set).
|
|
in header "local" too, this to indicate it only does local scales.
In editmesh: added NULL pointer in return of function to prevent crash
on error "give quad verts"
|
|
Gosh, I hate working with the old transform (of course, all those hackish fix are not making it any better, mind you).
|
|
I'm just binary flipped...

doing a transform. Solves bug reported by Brecht about this.
|

- ALT+U undo menu shows history for global undo as well
- Added undo pushes for buttons window more consistantly
- Added it & tested for ipowindow too
- Added it in outliner
- And quite some missing occasions for 3d window editing
|
|
size and rotation.
|
|
- Added proper edgeflag test for knife
- Fixed error in 'make face' for cases I again didn't foresee (ordering
of vertices can be any, need to try 3 cases before rejecting)

http://projects.blender.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1717&group_id=9&atid=125
Scaling with PET with numerical input used a three axis input while it only gave access to one.
Made it use and give access to only one as it should.
|
|
- Curve Join now moves all curves to 2D (if its 2D)
- FGon extrude keeps FGon flags correctly
- After Append undo-push added
- In almost all Ipo editing commands; undo-push added
- Icons in outliner now all consistant grey
- Zoffs button had to 20 high (hmetal :)

(Bug 1709)
|
|
Holding shift, while in extrude transform mode ('n', along normal) popped
the extrusion back to beginning, this due to storage of printing value
in dvec[3]. Simple fix :)
|
|
Just one simple report, 4-5 hours work...
reported was that selecting in action+nla window is slightly off. Quite
annoying. It appeared to be a wrong usage of View2D facilities, causing
part rewrite of a lot of stuff here. Mainly did it as excercise, to get
better understanding of all of this. Would need some testing though!
PLus; fixed crash while using "single user" menu with Ipos in Object.
|
|
Constraints on an object with hooks (or other deformer) didnt update
OK while transform(). The fix is easy code to isolate for Martin, so
hopefully he can find integrated solution in transform() refactor :)
|
|
no executable changes
|
|
Thanks jK!
|
|
- bug #1307; copy full scene didn't update links in constraints
(was an oldie bug!)
- also fixed same for Hooks, which even't didn't duplicate yet
- HOME in outliner (show hierarchy) now only does current scene
|
|
check in theeths commit of 20h ago. :)
Theeth; the signal I added (for normal) was hackish, as noted in comments!
Hopefully in new transform that all will be nice.
|
|
Made extrude along normals more sane. Now behave like a move along an arbitrary axis (including Ctrl/Shift applications and typemode). Also prints "Along faces normal" in the header, to tell the user what's happening.
|
|
- Outliner: click on Armature data goes in posemode
And long wanted, and found out is just a threeliner in code:
- Posemode: click-select-drag or grab-gesture switches to 'rotate'
automatic when no bone can be translated.
|
|
The outliner is a hierarchical diagram displaying a list of data in Blender
and its dependencies. The 'databrowse' doesn't really show it, and Oops is
too chaotic still. And most of all, the former two don't offer much tools.
After discussions on irc, Matt came with this design proposal;
http://mke3.net/blender/interface/layout/outliner/
Which is closely followed for the implementation.
The current version only shows all 'library data' in Blender (objects,
meshes, ipos, etc) and not the 'direct data' such as vertex groups or NLA.
I decided to make it inside the Oopw window, as an option. You can find the
option in the "View" pulldown, or directly invoke it with ALT+SHIFT+F9
Here's a quick overview of the Outliner GUI:
- Header pulldown has options what it can show (Visible = in current layers)
- click on triangle arrow to open/close
- press AKEY to open/close all
- Leftmouse click on an item activates; and does based on type a couple of
extra things:
- activates a scene
- selects/activates the Object
- enters editmode (if clicked on Mesh, Curve, etc)
- shows the appropriate Shading buttons (Lamp, Material, Texture)
- sets the IpoWindow to the current IPO
- activates the Ipo-channel in an Action
- Selected and Active objects are drawn in its Theme selection color
- SHIFT+click on Object does extend-select
- Press DOTkey to get the current active data in center of view
TODO;
- rightmouse selection; for indicating operations like delete or duplicate
- showing more data types
- icon (re)design...
- lotsof options as described in Matts paper still...

from within mesh_modifiers (kernel deform.c). It copies vertices to a
temporal particle system (struct SoftBody with BodyPoint structs) to do
physics tricks with it.
For each frame change the delta movements (based on standard ipo anim or
even other deforms (later) are applied to the physics system. How to apply
and calculate satisfying results is not my thing... so here I'll commu-
nicate with others for.
Since it's in the modifier stack, the SoftBody code can run entirely on
original data (no displists!).
Right now I've implemented 2 things;
- "Goal" which is a per vertex value for how much the current position
should take into account (goal=1 is without physics). This is a powerful
method for artists to get control over what moves and not. Right now i
read the vertex color for it.
- And some spring stuff, which now only works based on force moving it to
the originial location. This doesnt work with 'goal'... erhm.
- You can re-use physics vars from engine, used right now is (in Object)
- damping
- springf (spring factor)
- softflag (to set types, or activate softbody for it
- The SoftBody pointer in struct Object is only runtime, nothing saved in
file
To prevent all users going to complain it doesn't work, I've hidden the
functionality. :)
The buttons to set softbody 'on' only show now (psst psst) when the object has
name "soft" as first 4 characters. You can find the buttons in the F7 Particle
Interaction Panel (which should be renamed 'physics properties' later or so.
Demo file:
http://www.blender.org/bf/softbody.blend

Right now, it works for Meshes (all deformers including Curve) and for
Curve/Surfaces (only hooks).
More follows.
|

other editmodes to crash in transform()!
|
|
Theeth; i've done the changes as local as possible, and lotsa comments :P

The changelog is very long... it's on the web too:

EditMesh refactor notes (user)
**** New selection modes
When entering Edit Mode for a Mesh, you now have the choice for three selection modes. These are shown as icons in the 3D header (hotkey is being searched for!).
- Vertex Select
Select vertices as usual, fully compatible with how previous version work
- Edge Select
Vertices are not drawn anymore, and selections happen by default on the edges. It is a true edge select, meaning that you can select three out of four edges in a face, without automatic having the 4th edge selected.
- Face Select
Instead of vertices, now selection 'points' are drawn in the face centers. Selected faces also get a colored outline, like for edges. This also is true face select, for each face individual regardless selection status of its vertices or edges.
While holding SHIFT, and press a selection mode, you can also combine the above choices. Now selection becomes mixed, and will behave as expected.
For example; in Edge+Face select mode, selecting the 4 edges of a face will select the face too.
The selection modes and optional drawing modes (like transparant faces, normals, or solid drawing) all work together. All of Blender's mesh editing tools now react to the correct selection mode as well.
Most noticeable it's in:
**** Extrude
Extruding in Edge or Face Select mode allows much more precise control over what's extruded and what should be excluded. Try for example a checker pattern selection, and extrude it.
New is the fixed translation when faces are extruded. This always follows the (averaged) face normal(s) of the old face(s), enabling much easier working in 3D views . A single 'G' (Grab) or 'R' (Rotate) or 'S' (Scale) will change transform modus as usual.
**** Other things to note
- Hiding edges/faces will also behave different based on Select Mode.
- while editing, normals of faces are updated always now
- Border select (BKEY) has 2 different rules for edges; when one edge is fully inside of the border, it will only select edges that are fully inside. Otherwise it selects each edge intersecting with the border.
- in face mode, adding vertices, edges or a circle is invisible...
- "Add monkey" now works as a normal primitive (rotated and on 3d cursor)
- Mesh undo was fully recoded, hopefully solving issues now with Vertex Keys and Groups
- Going in and out of editmode was fully recoded. Especially on larger models you'll notice substantial speed gain.
**** Todo
Add 'FaceSelect mode' functionality in EditMode, including zbuffered selection, display and editing of UV texture.
EditMesh refactor notes (coder)
**** Usage of flags in general
The "->f" flags are reserved for the editmesh.c and editmesh_lib.c core functions. Actually only selection status is there now.
The "->f1" and "->f2" flags are free to use. They're available in vertex/edge/face structs. Since they're free, check carefully when calling other functions that use these flags... for example extrude() or subdivide() use them.
**** Selection flags
EditVert: eve->f & SELECT
EditEdge: eed->f & SELECT
EditFace: efa->f & SELECT
- Selection is only possible when not-hidden!
- Selection flags are always up-to-date, BUT:
if selection mode >= SELECT_EDGE vertex selection flags can be incorrect
if selection mode == SELECT_FACE vertex/edge selection flags can be incorrect
This because of shared vertices or edges.
- use for selecting vertices:
eve->f &= SELECT
- use for selecting edges always:
void EM_select_edge(eed, 1) // 1 = select, 0 = deselect
- use for selecting faces always:
void EM_select_face(efa, 1) // 1 = select, 0 = deselect
- To set the 'f' flags in all of the data:
void EM_set_flag_all(int flag);
void EM_clear_flag_all(int flag);
- the old faceselectedOR() and faceselectedAND() are still there, but only
to be used for evaluating its vertices
**** Code hints for handling selection
If the selectmode is 'face'; vertex or edge selections need to be flushed upward. Same is true for 'edge' selection mode. This means that you'll have to keep track of all selections while coding... selecting the four vertices in a face doesn't automatically select the face anymore.
However, by using the above calls, at least selections flush downward (to vertex level). You then can call:
void EM_selectmode_flush(void);
Which flushes selections back upward, based on the selectmode setting. This function does the following:
- if selectmode 'vertex': select edges/faces based on its selected vertices
- if selectmode 'edge': select faces based its selected edges
This works fine in nice controlled situations.
However, only changing the vertex selections then still doesn't select a face in face mode! If you really can't avoid only working with vertex selections, you can use this call:
void EM_select_flush(void);
Now selection is flushed upward regardless current selectmode. That can be destructive for special cases however, like checkerboard selected faces. So use this only when you know everything else was deselected (or deselect it). Example: adding primitives.
**** Hide flags
EditVert: eve->h
EditEdge: eed->h
EditFace: efa->h
- all hide flags are always up-to-date
- hidden vertices/edges/faces are always deselected. so when you operate on selection only, there's no need to check for hide flag.
**** Unified undo for editmode
New file: editmode_undo.h
A pretty nice function pointer handler style undo. Just code three functions, and your undo will fly! The c file has a good reference.
Also note that the old undo system has been replaced. It currently uses minimal dependencies on Meshes themselves (no abuse of going in/out editmode), and is restricted nicely to editmode functions.
**** Going in/out editmode
As speedup now all vertices/faces/edges are allocated in three big chunks. In vertices/faces/edges now tags are set to denote such data cannot be freed.
ALso the hashtable (lookup) for edges uses no mallocs at all anymore, but is part of the EditEdge itself.
|
|
And reorganized the #includes in editobject by "modules"
|
|
crash at undo after editing.
|
|
- Made unified API for undo calls, to be found in space.c
BIF_undo_push(char *str)
BIF_undo(void)
BIF_redo(void)
These calls will do all undo levels, including editmode and vpaint.
The transition is work in progress, because mesh undo needs recode.
- New global hotkey CTR+Z for undo
Note: 'shaded draw mode' still is SHIFT+Z, the old CTRL+Z was to recalc
the lighting in shaded mode, which already became much more interactive,
like during/after any transform().
Recalc hotkey now is SHIFT+ALT+Z
CTRL+<any modifier>+Z is redo.
- For OSX users; the Apple-key ("Command") now maps to CTRL as well. This
disables the one-mouse-button hack for rightmouse btw, will be fixed in
next commit. At least we can use Apple-Z :)
- Old Ukey for undo is still there, as a training period... my preference is
to restore Ukey to "reload original data" as in past, and only use new
CTRL+Z for undo.
- Added undo_push() for all of editobject.c and editview.c. Meaning we can
start using/testing global undo in the 3d window. Please dont comment on
missing parts for now, first I want someone to volunteer to tackle all of
that.
- Since the global undo has a full 'file' in memory, it can save extremely
fast on exit to <temp dir>/quit.blend. That's default now when global undo
is enabled. It prints "Saved session recovery to ..." in console then.
- In file menu, a new option is added "Recover Last Session". Note that this
reads the undo-save, which is without UI.
- With such nice new features we then can also kill the disputed
Cancel/Confirm menu on Q-KEY.
- Added fix which initializes seam/normal theme color on saved themes.
They showed black now.... (Note: that's in usiblender.c!)

1) Curve deform
http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Curve_Deform.392.0.html
Works simple as expected, but keep track of the rotation axis
in F7 buttons (Track X Y Z)
Only Mesh deform supported now.
Code changes:
- centralized deformation calls in curve_modifiers() mesh_modifiers()
etcetera. Here also other effects can be added like wave. Now the
evaluation order is fixed, but should become optional. It also doesnt
use the Displist anymore as deform-input. That latter part is unfinished
yet.
This code also is used for Hooks and will be needed for softbody
- made convention stricter that displists are being checked on in
drawobject(), this to prevent routines to make new displists recursively
(like armature does). Now a freedisplist() is sufficient to signal that
a new displaylist should be made.
2) Object Hooks
http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Object_Hooks.391.0.html
Support for Hooks is added to Mesh, Lattice, Curve and Surface objects.
For Armatures this would require some more work & research.
Main goal for this feature is to provide quick & simple access to the
underlying geometry in Objects on Object level, supporting hierarchies and
Ipos etc.
|
|
- transform (grab, rot, scale, etc)
- all button commands, including menus
I sacrificed for now the UKEY in the 3d window for it. Shift+U does a redo.
(Only in 3d window)
What this system does is saving files in the temp directory (user pref).
The filenames are cycled around (32 in total now).
This commit will follow shortly with a userpref for it, not to frustrate
people who want to work in normal fashion with blender.
|
|
separate it...
1) Curve/Surface editmode undo
Uses same syntax as mesh undo, so simple to integrate. Edit-curve data is
also quite simpler, so no need for any hack at all.
It re-uses the undo system from next point, which is nice short & clean
local code
2) Framework for global undo
The undo calls themselves are commented out. In a next commit I want to
enable it for a couple of main features, for further feedback.
The speed goes surprisingly well, especially with this new version that
'pushes' undo after a command, ensuring interactivity isnt frustrated
3) framework for texture based icons in Blender
Not activated code, but tested here. Part of 2.3 UI project.
btw: Johnny Matthews will assist in (and complete) the undo project
