Notes:
- Only referenced groups (from other files)
- Only 1 group (no more duplicates using same group yet)
- Only Proxy working well for Armature or Empty
Is going to be reviewed in Plumiferos team; but target is that this will
solve a major animation pipeline bottleneck :)
Usage; select group, alt+ctrl+p, pick an object you want to proxify.

THE OBJECT PROXY
Or simple said; local control of referenced data from libraries.
Having library files with references is a very common studio setup, and
Blender did do quite well in that area. Were it not that for character
setups it was impossible to use still.
This commit will enable a full rig+character to remain in the library,
and still have - under strict control - local access for animation edits.

Embryon functionnality for snapping.
- Only snaps to grid on translations (grab)
- Transform constraints are supported but header display is wrong.
- Can be turned on/off in the Object/Mesh header menu under Transform Properties (tentative spot, will have to integrate better and in other object type menus too)
- Can be turned on/off during transform with ` (Back Quote, also tentative)
This is, of course, very much Work in Progress.
This implements part of the structural ideas for the transform cleanup I've been juggling around with.

This is another proportional edit falloff that slightly randomises the
influence. It's not strictly random, it's blended with linear falloff so that
it's a bit smoother. The nice thing is that it works with all transforms, axis
locking etc, including the special ones like to sphere, shrink/fatten/etc. It
can be used for all sorts of things like roughening surfaces. I most recently
used it to add a bit of randomness to the folds of some cloth. I
made a short demo video here: http://mke3.net/blender/etc/prop_random-h264.mov
Also included nicer icons for the falloff types.

- this patch adds verse support for SCons, which can be enabled by
giving WITH_BF_VERSE=1, ie. on command-line
- this patch also adds a custom lib dir possibility. From the patch description:
"To set a custom ../lib dir, put LCGDIR="path to lib dir, including the platform folder name!" in your user-config.py."
* Fixed win32-vc-config.py so that it links to the proper library. Reported by Brandano.
|
|
- All code is in #ifdef ... #endif
- Only make build system is supported and you have to add:
export WITH_VERSE=true
to user-def.mk file
- Blender can share only mesh objects and bitmaps now
- More informations can be found at wiki:
http://mediawiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/VerseIntegrationToBlender
http://mediawiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/VerseIntegrationToBlenderUserDoc
I hope, that I didn't forget at anything

This is a much faster and easier way to give a bevelled curve a taper, without
using taper curves. Each point on a curve now has a 'radius' value that you can
shrink and fatten using Alt S, which will influence the taper when the curve is
bevelled (either with a bevob, or with front/back turned off and a bevel dept
set). Alt S shrinks and fattens the selected points in an interactive transform,
and you can set an absolute radius for selected points with 'Set Radius' in the
curve specials menu.
See demo: http://mke3.net/blender/etc/curve_shrinkfatten-h264.mov
This can be a quick way to create revolved surfaces (eg.
http://mke3.net/blender/etc/wineglass-h264.mov ) and it would be very
interesting to use this radius value in other tools, such as a 'freehand curve'
tool that would let you draw a curve freehand, with the radius affected by pen
pressure, or even using the radius at each point to control curve guides for
particles more precisely, rather than the continous maxdist.

it works as expected.

EM_editselection_center
EM_editselection_normal
EM_editselection_plane
These functions are used by the manipulator to get data from an editselection. regardless of weather its a face/edge/vert.
|
|
works for getting the V/E/F normal. Means we can now rotate about the last selected edge.
|
|
Rotating UV coordinates with snapping was image aspect ratio 'corrected'
for non square images. Only snapping for translation should be affected
by the aspect ratio.
|
|
- Set local sticky in the uv editor as default.
- Don't do live unwrap on fully selected charts or charts with no pins
selected.
- Fixed bug with live unwrap not respecting transform cancel in some cases.
- "View Home" didn't work without an image.
- Move UV Calculation settings (cube size, cylinder radius, ..) into the scene
toolsettings, instead of global variables
- Remove the name LSCM from the UI (and python docs on seams), and replace it
with 'Unwrap', with upcoming ABF this didn't make sense anymore.
- Move the Old/New LSCM switch into the UV Calculation panel. New LSCM is the
default now. Also renamed LSCM there to "Conformal".
- Made some room in the UV Calculation panel by removing the buttons to execute
the UV calculation, only leaving the settings.
Fill Holes:
- LSCM now has an option to fill holes in the chart before unwrapping. This on
by default, and enables two things:
- Prevent internal overlaps (e.g. eyes, mouth) for LSCM unwrapping.
- Allow the internal boundaries to move freely during stretch minimize.
- The possibility to switch it off is there because it is not always possible
to define which the outer boundary is. For example with an open cylinder
where there are two identical holes.

Here are my notes on things to look out for as potential problem
spots:
source/blender/blenkernel/intern/displist.c:
+ is initfastshade(void) supposed to be empty? I had
to make it empty to get the merged tree to compile.
source/blender/python/api2_2x/Armature.c:
+ went with the version that had Armature_getLayers()
source/blender/python/api2_2x/Object.c
+ went with the version of Object_getPose() from bf-blender.
(#ifdef 0-ed the other version)
source/blender/python/api2_2x/Pose.[ch]
+ had problems linking due to no Pose_Init() ... copied these
two files straight from bf-blender.
source/blender/src/drawview.c:
+ view3d_panel_properties() had things shifted a few things shifted
a few pixels, otherwise, things were painless
source/blender/src/splash.jpg.c:
+ went with bf-blender version (orange is dead)
source/gameengine:
+ went with bf-blender version -- does not compile due to IMB_rect* stuff,
Ton should look into this.

When grabing a camera in camera view, the constraint center wasn't the center used for initgrabz, so it messed up a lot.
|
|
ALso: a bit tidying up in editaction.c and python Object.c
|
|
The user settings "auto rotate grid" or "auto scale grid" were never
implemented for new transform, apparently.
|
|
without check for correct spacetype in use. :)

- There is now a (temporary) dropdown box in the image window header for
switching between the old an new unwrapper code. So to test the changes
described below you need to enable the new unwrapper code.
- Pinning is now more predictable, if one uv is pinned, the others belonging
to the same vertex are pinned also.
- Live LSCM is much faster, since the LU factorization, the most expensive
part of the computation, is now stored and reused (was Jens' idea).
- Packing multiple uv charts is slightly improved, by doing a binary search
over the texture width. This fixes the case where all the charts are
packed at the bottom of the image.
- LSCM now uses an angle based formulation, and the results seem somewhat
different (maybe slightly better?), didn't find out why yet.

Set the option in EditMode, in 2nd mesh tools panel. It only works on
transform options now (grab/rot/scale), and of course assumes a near-
perfect symmetrical mesh. Mesh Object itself can be on any location
though (and rotated etc).
|

While investigating alternative filters (Mitchell), I found two small
errors in the Gauss code, it clipped wrong and multiplied wrong, causing
settings other than filter size 1.0 to not work properly.
Took the last-minute liberty to add more filter types in Blender too.
Also wrote an extensive log about how sampling & filtering in Blender
works.

This is a combined effort from Jens, Ton who finished the code here on my machine, and myself putting in the little menu toggle and committing :).
Turn it on and off in the UV/Image window menu UVs -> LSCM Live Transform. It recalculates the LSCM within the transform loop when you're transforming pinned vertices, so it gives realtime feedback - a real time saver! Note: this is much more powerful than proportional edit, since it's properly calculating LSCM using the correct edge angles, etc.
I recorded a quicky demo video here: http://orange.blender.org/wp-content/themes/orange/images/media/lscm_live.mov (quicktime animation codec)

td->loc was set (like for crease).

|
- Better use of tolerance to check for elements already on seam
- remove debug printfs
|
|
- Work with multiple mirror modifiers
- Take into accound elements already on the seam properly.
- Use the proper mirror tolerance as limit
|
|
See, in theory, I didn't make typos when coding.
Explanation:
iloc*loc will be negative when the sign changes between them, so we can snap if an element cross the limit.
|
|
It was assuming the real half is always on the positive, which is not true all the time (the mirror modifier doesn't make that assumption).
It incorrecly snapped everything to 0 if the half is in the negative quadrant.
Fix was to do "if (td->loc[0] * td->loc[0] < 0" instead, only snapping if the sign changed.
NOTE: this is all "in theory", as scons is broken, but I'm pretty sure the bug was real and the fix is.

during Transform to go through the mirror. Note that it is *only* during
transform, and ESC restores the non-clipped positions of vertices.
|
|
- Added (BKE_utildefines.h) POINTER_TO_INT(poin) and INT_TO_POINTER(int)
defines, to help fixing issues with switch to 64 bits systems. This
assumes that a) not more than 16GB mem is used and b) that address
space is below the 1<<35 value. The latter has to be confirmed, but it
seems to conform the current 64 bits generation of OSs (for mallocs).
Needless to say; use long if you want to store pointers! This is for
temporal fixing.
- Added editmesh version for mesh-octree lookups, not used yet.
- Fix: ESC on armature posemode restored the actions, should not happen
- Fix: If in NLA an action was 0 frame long, it caused draw error
- Fix: Click on name in Action Window now activates Bones
- Fix: "Snap to" options in Armature editmode now use X-axis mirror edit.
|
|
- Trackball rotate was missing the NoConstraints flag
- Zooming didn't recalculate the 2D center correctly
- Zooming in transform was sending event to the 3D window even when working on UVs. (disabled when working on UVs for now, will need to send events to a 2D window handler eventually)
- In camera mode, when the selection was exactly on the camera, initgrabz was barfing, fallback to 1.0 now, which gives ok results.

Envelope correction for moving bone-points in edit mode didn't reset on ESC
|
|
Best is to forget yesterday's commit and old docs. New docs are underway...
Here's how IK works now;
- IK chains can go all the way to the furthest parent Bone. Disregarding
the old option "IK to Parent" and disgregarding whether a Bone has an
offset to its parent (offsets now work for IK, so you can also make
T-bones).
- The old "IK to Parent" option now only does what it should do: it denotes
whether a Bone is directly connected to a Parent Bone, or not.
In the UI and in code this option is now called "Connected".
- You can also define yourself which Bone will become the "Root" for an IK
chain. This can be any Parent of the IK tip (where the IK constraint is).
By default it goes all the way, unless you set a value for the new IK
Constraint Panel option "Chain Lenght".
- "Tree IK" now is detected automatic, when multiple IK Roots are on the
same Bone, and when there's a branched structure.
Multiple IK's on a single chain (no branches) is still executed as usual,
doing the IK's sequentially.
- Note: Branched structures, with _partial_ overlapping IK chains, that don't
share the same Root will possibly disconnect branches.
- When you select a Bone with IK, it now draws a yellow dashed line to its
Root.
- The IK options "Location Weight" and "Rotation Weight" are relative,
in case there's a Tree IK structure. These weights cannot be set to
zero. To animate or disable IK Targets, use the "Influence" slider.
- This new IK is backwards and upwards compatible for Blender files.
Of course, the new features won't show in older Blender binaries! :)
Other changes & notes;
- In PoseMode, the Constraint Panel now also draws in Editing Buttons, next
to the Bones Panel.
- IK Constraint Panel was redesigned... it's still a bit squished
- Buttons "No X DoF" is now called "Lock X". This to follow convention to
name options positive.
- Added Undo push for Make/Clear Parent in Editmode Armature
- Use CTRL+P "Make Parent" on a single selected Bone to make it become
connected (ALT+P had already "Disconnect").
On todo next; Visualizing & review of Bone DoF limits and stiffness
|
|
- Softbody Mesh didnt update when it was child of armature-posing
- Bone Stick drawing didn't draw selected in Solid + Object mode.
- WeightPaint + Subsurf (nice that it works!) didn't update on Bone
selection
|
|
Using new transform code to handle UV window.
With the ground work done, Transform could more easily be extended to handle IPO window now.
Tracker item: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=127&aid=2946&group_id=9
|
|
- Vpaint and Wpaint now use our own custom cursor, this was a very old
plan anyway. It uses the 'knife' now, we need a good brush icon for it!
- On scaling bones in editmode, the deform distance info gets scaled now
too when no "Envelope" draw mode was set.
- Disabled front buffer drawing of objects with CTRL+select in Edit Mode.
Uses a regular redraw now (like for select in Object Mode btw)
|
|
- Modifier Panel, name label for "Virtual" modifiers was too short
- On extrude Bones, "soft distance" now is always set based on length
of the bone (also on CTRL+click, also when Envelope drawmode is not set)
- Added undo-push for "Apply Bone Envelopees to VertexGroup" in WeightPaint.
- Menu-buttons in floating panels sometimes gave drawing error
- InfoWindow buttons were always allocated & drawn, even when window was
zero sized... waste of cpu, tsk!
|
|
- The "Skinnable" option for Bones now is taken into account for the
Envelope drawmode. If not Skinnable, it also doesn't draw the soft
deform area. Maybe bone should be hidden... dunno yet.
- Use CTRL+LMB in weightpaint mode to sample the weight in a mesh.
Note; it returns the weight of the closest visible vertex, not of a
Blended result.
- NKey Panel for Mesh edit now shows a menu with the VertexGroup name(s)
of a selected Vertex, plus the Weight.
Fix:
- while scaling Bone points in editmode (Envelope drawtype), the Bone
root scale was not copied from (or to) the parent tip. This was not
visible (is not drawn) but deform did use it... causing weird errors.
For those who saw this error today: just go into editmode, select all
Bones, press Skey, enter. That fixes it :)
|
|
For defining the deformation distances of Bones, three values are being
used now. The bone tip and root radius define the bone-shape itself and the
"dist" defines the soft area around it. A full (user) doc is in CMS here;
http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Armature_Envelopes.647.0.html
Note: todo still is allowing both Vertex Deform Groups and these Envelopes
together (and or per Bone).
Also part of this commit is:
- New: Hiding bones in EditMode. This is a separate 'hide flag', so you can
keep the PoseMode hidden Bones separate from EditMode.
(In the future we should do some kind of bone-grouping or so)
- While transform(), the hotkeys G,R,S only switch mode when the previous
mode was compatible. Caused conflicts with Crease/BoneDist/etc.
- Deleting the last VertexGroup now also deletes the entire Mesh 'dvert'
data. Sounds logical, but remember that VertexGroups are partial on a
Mesh, partial on Object. Weird design decision though...
Anyhoo, at this moment the only way to have Bone Envelopes deform, is
by deleting all VertexGroups!
- In PoseMode, the hotkey ALT+S now does both B-Bone size or Envelope,
depending draw type.
- In EditMode, Extrude now also works when only Root points were selected.
- Weight editing is also symmetrical btw, with the "X-axis Mirror" option
set.

options on the Bone (G, R, S). The manipulator doesn't show btw.
Is usful to get immediate feedback on how painted weights behave with Bones.
Martin; I had to change the T_POSE behaviour in code a bit... it now
stores in TransInfo the actual posed armature being transformed. Maybe,
some day, we'll get mixed posechannel/object transform? Not much required
at the moment though. :)
|
|
- Option is in EditButtons, Armature panel.
- Currently only local X-axis mirror (seems to be default anyway)
- Transform then applies changes to the mirrored-name bone as well.
- Extrude: also does the counterpart Bone
- New: SHIFT+E extrude: extrudes 2 mirrored Bones out of a normal Bone.
(creating names by appening _L and _R)
Or in short: you can now model a full rig without any manual naming!
Of course the names are not too nice... a couple of ideas to explore;
- rename a mirrored bone renames counterpart too
- allow in weightpaint mode to select Bones
- and of course mirrored edit in PoseMode (if that's useful...)
Important note: I tweaked the naming convention a bit; names like
Bone_L.005 and Bone_R.005 are considered counterparts. However, if
you use the "Flip names" option, the number extension is still
truncated.
BTW: Commits in Zr's code are fixes for gcc warnings. :)

*NOTE*: Some UI decision done in this commit will most likely be revised, all flame shall go in /dev/null. Constructive discussions of course welcomed.
This commit merges manipulator orientation selection back in "traditional" transform.
That's how it works:
- The dropdown in the 3D view header is always visible
- The orientation chosen will be used when choosing an axis with MMB and for the *second* key press of X,Y,Z
However, Local orientation doesn't use the one calculated by the manipulator. This is to ensure that multiple object local and armatures in pose still works as before.
- Alt-Space (to change the orientation) works during transform
New Transform orientation: View, using the view axis.
Fixes for the following bugs:
- Constraint projection code "jammed" if input vector was <0,0,0>, reported a couple of times on IRC. Thanks to Basse for the example file.
- Transform on texspace crashed on objects without texspace data (camera, lamp, ...). This was reported in tracker.
- Numinput with lock constraints didn't work correctly. Reported on elysiun
Probably some others that I'm forgetting
I also moved a couple of functions around in an attempt to make things clearer.

- 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.
|
|
children during transform... to make it work, had to trick the nice
depgraph code... <sob> :)
|
|
Meaning, it didn't do polygonizing while moving elements in edit mode.
|
|
|
|
With new system, very easy to do in the end (figuring it out was less so).
No need to go down parent chains or anything of the sort, just apply parent pose and we're all set.
Ton's commit reverted back before my include files cleanup in transform, recleaning.
Also, as mentionned by bjornmose, declaration after instruction choked MSVC. Fixed.

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

screen. Switched to ints, that fixed the bug in the tracker.
Switching to floats would probably be safer in the long term, but too many things to test to do that now.
