No real baddie, but still very good to fix!

header prints on the 3d view header to be the same color as the menu text.
This ensures that you can read the text against the color of the header
just as long as the theme color for the menu text is also readable against
the header color. This should make dark themes much better.

all to make compiling warning less again in gcc. :)

animation (Ctrl F11) similar to rendering a still with F12 and showing it in
the buffer with F11.

Scene. These settings are now saved per scene.

including implementation. hope it works, and doesn't break to much.
it bakes physics objects transform into ipo, every frame of the running gameengine.
When you disable and run the game again, it clears the ipo's again. just for physics objects at the moment.
(perhaps some better UI in the future?)

- add new scene, "Full Copy", didn't copy radio settings
- switch scene didn't reset radiosity baking
(note that you can only do 1 radiosity scene in Blender, switch scene
will free the radiosity data)
|
|
- switched almost all uiDefBut(..., TOG|BIT|..) to use UiDefButBit and the
name of the actual bit define instead of just a magic constant, this makes
searching the code much nicer. most of the credit here goes to LetterRip
who did almost all of the conversions, I mostly just checked them over.

He even made a nice doc in wiki:
http://wiki.blender.org/bin/view.pl/Blenderdev/Blendgz
Usage: set the option "Compress File" in the main "File" pulldown menu.
This setting is a user-def, meaning it is not changed on reading files.
If you want it default, save it with CTRL+U.
The longest debate went over the file naming convention. Shaul started
with .blend.gz files, which gave issues in Blender because of the code
hanging out everywhere that detects blender files, and that appends the
.blend extension if needed.
Daniel Dunbar proposed to just save it as .blend, and not bother users
with such details. This is indeed the most elegant solution, with as
only drawback that old Blender executables cannot read it.
This drawback isn't very relevant at the moment, since we're heading
towards a release that isn't upward compatible anyway... the recode
going on on Meshes, Modfiers, Armatures, Poses, Actions, NLA already
have upward compatibility issues.
We might check - during the next month(s) - on a builtin system to
warn users in the future when we change things that make a file risky
to read in an older release.

- PoseMode now is a state Armature Objects can be in. So, while in PoseMode
for an Armature, you can just select another Object or Armature.
- The old PoseMode options (transform, insert keys etc) are accessible
with making the Armature Object 'active' (and have object in PoseMode).
- At this moment no multiple Poses can be transformed/edited at the same
time.
- The old hotkey CTRL+TAB, and view3d header menu, still work to set an
Object's PoseMode
It was quite a lot recode, so tests & reports are welcome.
Oh, as a bonus I added Lasso Select for Bones in PoseMode! It selects using
only the line between root and tip of the Bone.
|
|
|
|
to that in editmesh as well as for edit{curve,lattice}
- added a G.editModeTitleExtra string that gets displayed in header info
string in editmode. currently used to display "(Key)" when editing a
key (before there was not UI level display of this info).
|

Aim was to get a total refresh of the animation system. This
is needed because;
- we need to upgrade it with 21st century features
- current code is spaghetti/hack combo, and hides good design
- it should become lag-free with using dependency graphs
A full log, with complete code API/structure/design explanation
will follow, that's a load of work... so here below the list with
hot changes;
- The entire object update system (matrices, geometry) is now
centralized. Calls to where_is_object and makeDispList are
forbidden, instead we tag objects 'changed' and let the
depgraph code sort it out
- Removed all old "Ika" code
- Depgraph is aware of all relationships, including meta balls,
constraints, bevelcurve, and so on.
- Made depgraph aware of relation types and layers, to do smart
flushing of 'changed' events. Nothing gets calculated too often!
- Transform uses depgraph to detect changes
- On frame-advance, depgraph flushes animated changes
Armatures;
Almost all armature related code has been fully built from scratch.
It now reveils the original design much better, with a very clean
implementation, lag free without even calculating each Bone more than
once. Result is quite a speedup yes!
Important to note is;
1) Armature is data containing the 'rest position'
2) Pose is the changes of rest position, and always on object level.
That way more Objects can use same Pose. Also constraints are in Pose
3) Actions only contain the Ipos to change values in Poses.
- Bones draw unrotated now
- Drawing bones speedup enormously (10-20 times)
- Bone selecting in EditMode, selection state is saved for PoseMode,
and vice-versa
- Undo in editmode
- Bone renaming does vertexgroups, constraints, posechannels, actions,
for all users of Armature in entire file
- Added Bone renaming in NKey panel
- Nkey PoseMode shows eulers now
- EditMode and PoseMode now have 'active' bone too (last clicked)
- Parenting in EditMode' CTRL+P, ALT+P, with nice options!
- Pose is added in Outliner now, with showing that constraints are in
the Pose, not Armature
- Disconnected IK solving from constraints. It's a separate phase now,
on top of the full Pose calculations
- Pose itself has a dependency graph too, so evaluation order is lag free.
TODO NOW;
- Rotating in Posemode has incorrect inverse transform (Martin will fix)
- Python Bone/Armature/Pose API disabled... needs full recode too
(wait for my doc!)
- Game engine will need upgrade too
- Depgraph code needs revision, cleanup, can be much faster!
(But, compliments for Jean-Luc, it works like a charm!)
- IK changed, it now doesnt use previous position to advance to next
position anymore. That system looks nice (no flips) but is not well
suited for NLA and background render.
TODO LATER;
We now can do loadsa new nifty features as well; like:
- Kill PoseMode (can be option for armatures itself)
- Make B-Bones (Bezier, Bspline, like for spines)
- Move all silly button level edit to 3d window (like CTRL+I = add
IK)
- Much better & informative drawing
- Fix action/nla editors
- Put all ipos in Actions (object, mesh key, lamp color)
- Add hooks
- Null bones
- Much more advanced constraints...
Bugfixes;
- OGL render (view3d header) had wrong first frame on anim render
- Ipo 'recording' mode had wrong playback speed
- Vertex-key mode now sticks to show 'active key', until frame change
-Ton-

Ken Hughes found the solution.
|

Implementation had some issues though, since:
a) Blender has no stats available that tells amount of selected edges
b) Bypassing the popup should be 100% accurate
b) Once you do that, the popup should actually only show possible
choices as well.
So! I've added a G.totedge and G.totedgesel, also being printed in the
info header. Using this variable the extrude popups could be limited too.
Also: made 'normal alignment' for edge-only selections work when the
normal wasn't pointing OK. Now it aligns the Z axis with the edge itself
Exact algorithm for choosing a 'normal' and 'plane' still is weak.

removed leftovers from Freeimage/Imagemagick experiments
and removed stuff from a Quicktime for linux implementation.
Also removed the (win32) Fullscreen button from the UI and
disabled the corresponding commandline option. The code is
still present to reenable the option whenever the ATI issues
get solved.
|
|
NOTE: BLI_winstuff.h was meant to be a wrapper around windows.h to handle
undefining various crap that windows.h defines. Platform specific headers
should only have to be included in a few places. This reduces the number
of inclusions of BLI_winstuff.h to 16 which is a much more reasonable
number (than the 144 or whatever it used to be)
|
|
Move calls to exit editmode and posemode to "set_scene()". Was causing
errors when, in posemode, switching to empty scene.
|
|
lot of casts, added prototypes, missing includes and some true errors
|
|
freshly added bFTGL library.
Also removed some redundant #include's on some files.
|
|
Set preferred method in userprefs->language & font.
Kinda requested by Kaito, i'm sure he regrets after seeing
my code changes.
This commit includes a patch provided by Jacques Baurain,
which seemed nescessary to handle font sizing properly.
Thank you !

Using File->Save Image menu didn't work while Stars were drawn... the used
method to save an image (mainqenter F3 key) is a bit awkward anyway, so
replaced with proper BIF_xxx call.
Reason for mainqenter not to work was RE_draw_stars() function calling
a blender_test_break(), swallowing queue events. Very bad and need review.
Small tweak in previewrender; preview type Cube now displays texture
coordinates better (it showed a bit too much)
|
|
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!
|

Used the one from python.org (favicon).
It displays now as icon for pulldown menus and script space.
|
|
- 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
|
|
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...

----- Killed UI frontbuffer draw
The interface toolkit was drawing all live updates (while using menus/buttons)
in the frontbuffer. This isn't well supported cross-platform, so time to be
killed once. Now it uses *only* glReadPixels and glCopyPixels for frontbuffer
access.
Live updates or menus now are drawn in backbuffer always, and copied to
front when needed.
NOTE: it was tested, but needs thorough review! On PC systems I suspects
backbuffer selection to screw up (check!). On SGI/SUN workstations it
should work smooth; but I need evidence
----- Smaller fixes;
- AA fonts were garbled on ATI systems. Now the AA fonts are drawn exact
on pixel positions. Needs the new FTGL libb too, patch is on maillist
- Rounded theme uses antialiased outlines
- Pulldown and popup menus have nice softshadow now
- New button type 'PULLDOWN', thats the one that callsup a pulldown menu.
Should be added to themes, as is the full menu/pulldown drawing
- Screendump for 1 window does the full window now, including header
- Empty pulldowns (for example running blender without scripts) give no
drawing error anymore
For review & fun;
- added curved lines as connectors, for Oops window
|

with their shortcuts.

- 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!)
|
|
- file-to-memory save
- incremental difference steps (compression)
everthing has been tightly coded to use minimum of memcpy or allocs. In
fact this system works with a single full buffer (=file) in memory, and undosteps as differences from it.
Speed gain is factor 4-8 faster. I've added it in CTRL+ALT+T timer menu for
a test. Please note the gain is especially in the undo-storing, not in
retrieving undo.
Also new: file read option to skip UI read (file menu). This now also is
default for the undo system.

Thanks to Willian for integrating the webbrowser module.
Some of the URLs (Python reference, Release notes) will
need to be updated upon release. These are contained in
http://www.blender3d.org/Help/index.php

- added submenu "Scripts" in both View3D->Object and Mesh menus.
Put them on top (it's better to follow some guideline, so users don't have to search for "Scripts" submenu in a different position in each menu), feel free to change.
- added button 'previous win' to SpaceScript, makes accessing buttons win, for example, much faster. Maybe all spaces could have this button.
BPython:
- added Window.EditMode(), to check, enter and leave edit mode. Scripts that change mesh data need this to leave edit mode before making changes to the active (G.obedit) mesh, of course.
- updated script bevel_center to use the above function and also popup an error msg if the active obj is not a mesh.
- doc updates, minor fixes.
Forgot to mention in my previous commit that I also updated the "-P" command-line option (for running script files) to be able to run already loaded Blender Texts, too. So, if you have a script called 'Text' in foo.blend, you can run it with blender foo.blend -P Text .

rendering; now it's a permanent part of it.

PupStrInput, a wrapper for the Blender String popup (thanks!)
- Fixed bug #1374 reported by Gabriel Beloin (gabio, thanks too):
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=125&aid=1374&group_id=9
There was a minor mistake in the import menu: vrml called dxf and vice-versa and shortcuts were wrong (removed them).
- Doc updates, minor updates elsewhere.
|
|
* Gave the spiffy new 'System Information' script a new home there
|
|
fileselect button labels, as discussed on the forums.
* Added items for importing DXF, VRML, etc. in the File->Import menu, that just call the normal Open function. Most people don't even know that you can open these formats through the normal Open fileselect, so this will make it more obvious.
* Removed the 'Export Selected' menu, and put poor old lonely STL in the Import and Export menus too. Most of the exporters export only the selected object anyway, so it's not really a necessary distinction to make.
|
|
- tiny updates for better behavior, unix line endings, cvs Id tags;
- Updated DX7 exporter (thanks to author Ben Omari who's also working on a DX8 one);
- added sysinfo script;
Interface (scripts):
- changed behavior for which win is chosen for script guis:
Now there's a smarter order, guis will use either:
- Scripts win
- Buttons win (if not a script from groups Wizards or Utils)
- Text win
- Closest bigger area
- Added a button to the scripts header so that it's faster to return to the buttons win (this can be made general), if that was the previous win used.
|
|
in the UV/Image editor 'UVs' menu
Script authors can use:
Group: 'UV'
in the headers of their scripts to let them appear in
this menu.
* Updated the UV Face Layout script to reside in the UVs
menu, rather than the (incorrect) File->Export menu.
|
|
- first code for panel in NLA window, tomorrow I continue with it.
|
|
|
|
binary subformats, and writes the binary subformat. Read is done with
usual F1, write is done in the menu 'File->Export Selected->STL'. Writes
meshes only, writing the 'displistmesh' if subsurf is on. The 'magic'
to determine whether it is reading the binary or ASCII subformat
could use a little work, but makes the correct choice most of the time.

-- added re-eval entry to Scripts Win -> Scripts menu
-- added it also as a button at Info Win -> File Paths, Python path
-- updated bpymenus code:
added 'Blender' tag, for version;
made a .Bpymenus file be written only if there's actual data to save
made file->export menu open a scriptspace only if none is available already
-- bug fixes (bugs 866 and 879, related) for linking and sharing mesh data:
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=125&aid=866&group_id=9
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=125&aid=879&group_id=9
|
|
- some fixes for menu and error reporting code.
|
|
-- this finishes the heavier part (not counting tweaks and possible bugs) of
letting scripts be accessed from Blender menus. Will explain more in emails
to bf and bpython lists, but just check
source/blender/python/BPY_menus.[hc] and
source/blender/src/header_info.c and header_script.c for details.
Scripts need a small update (registering info, basically a header) to be used.
Scripts dir (user pref file paths: Python) must be set.
|
|
empty now
|
|
Also added USER_* to each define located in DNA_userdef.h.
