Apparently on some cards/drivers setting alpha clip to 1.0 will make every
pixel get clipped out regardless of its associated alpha value being 1.0.
Added a fix for this.
Related to bug [#7792] ("Around Selection" user preference doesn't work for linked objects), this commit makes Linked objects be considered in Transform.
This has a couple of effects:
Linked objects are used to calculate the center of transformation and such but are skipped during the actual transformation.
Linked objects can be used as orbiting targets (see previously mentionned bug).
The offshot is that selecting a linked object and hitting G doesn't cancel immediately as it did before (this could eventually be worked around, but I don't think it's that much of a problem. Disagreeing people should express themselves).
Applying Stephan Kassemeyer's patch (#6750) to add a curve modifier for sculpting.
A few changes from the patch:
* The default curve is closer to the old behavior
* Fixed loading files already saved in sculpt mode
* Changed the interface; split the brush texture controls off into a third sculpt tab, and put the curve (and curve reset) into the Brush tab.
============================
- Strand render now has options to remove child strands as
the object's faces becomes smaller, in the Simplification
particle panel.
- "Reference Size" is the approximate size of the object on
screen, after which simplification starts.
- "Rate" is how fast strands are removed.
- "Transition" is the percentage of strands being faded out as
they are removed.
- Another "Viewport" option removes strands on faces that are
outside of the viewport. "Rate" again controls how fast these
are removed.
- Strand render in Blender Units now has an adjustable minimum
width. Below this minimum width, strands start fading out
instead of getting smaller.
Useful to use before sending blend files to the renderfarm.
* Make all Paths Relative - makes any absolute paths relative.
* Report Missing Files - creates a textblock listing all missing files.
* Find Missing Files - searches a directory recursively for filenames that dont exist at their current path.
Added a path looper type and functions that currently loop on image, sound, font and external library paths.
This option (found in the View menu) shows all Action Channels, regardless of whether the data they represent is visible or not.
It's better than having to have multiple pinned Action Editors open to be able to move all keyframes of all bones at once (when blocking for example).
Also, fixed some compile errors caused by previous commit...
The TIFF reader did error handling with assert which is a pretty bad
idea (tm).
This fixes the assert-crash, that the TIFF reader triggers, if one tries
to open a RAW-DV file within the compositor. (File extension is only
two characters long, which is enough for an assert... EVEN IF IT ISN'T
A TIFF FILE, WE ARE GOING TO OPEN. GRMBL)
Removed all other assertions and added proper error handling.
(using STDERR, where it belongs.)
Now the Copy/Paste functionality stores more info about where keyframes came from. This allows users to copy full poses in the Action Editor and paste them in another action.
Peach request/bugfix for William.
rendering to the image editor missed one case, could result in
modifiers and particles being evaluated with G.rendering == 1 but
still showing in the viewport.
Now Long-Keyframes in the Action Editor (yellow/pink strips between keyframes) take into account whether the keyframe handles which help control the interpolation between the two keyframes stay at the same value as the keyframes do.
This way, long keyframes are not drawn when the keys have the same value, but there's still movement between them.
When using a pinned action, "Add New" now makes a new action. This new action is only assigned to the current Action Editor (i.e. not to any active object, as one might not exist, or might not be the object that the action is related to).
* Alt-A now only plays the animation in the active space, if that space is a 3D-view. Otherwise, it plays the animation in all spaces. The old behaviour simply didn't make sense for animation editors, where you'd simply see the current-frame marker moving...
* Alt-Shift-A now plays the animation in all spaces regardless of whether they are active (including 3d-views)
This is the review of the patch:
[#5485] Invisibly stamp render information into jpg and png files.
by Rob Hausauer (paprmh)
NOTE: I split this patch in 3 part:
1) jpeg support
2) python api
3) sequence plugin
This is the first part, hope finish with the other two tomorrow night.
=========
- The render and realtime button for the particle system modifier
and the enabled button for particles now work seperate again,
made a bad design decision to tie them together. Now with only
the render button and not realtime enabled it renders.
- Fix for bug #7948: particle mode crash while constraining axis.
- Fix for bug #7945: crash loading effector groups from an old file.
- Fix for bug #7942: crash for reactor particles emitting from particles.
===============================
- One shadowbuffer per thread.
- Added more break tests in shadow buffer code.
- Removed R.clipcrop global, solution is not nice yet, but at
least threadsafe.
- Fixed bug in strand render shadow buffer code.
I was careful in selectively rolling back revisions, but if you've committed changes unrelated to BPY mixed with BPY changes, I might have reverted those too, so please double check.
* Some joints were identified multiple times, which caused a "too many joints" error when only 2 joints were selected
* When no joints were selected, "too many joints" error was displayed. This has been changed to "no joints selected"
* Fixed a memory leak that occurred when "too many joints selected"
* Mostly fixed a few more of the tp_base errors, in the manner that Ken did...
* There's still a weird warning in draw.c about some function being used but not defined
* I've included the source splitting hack here too, as I was getting problems getting it to link the files...
