Now the bevel tool, modifier, and internal operator have a material
slot # parameter that the user can set. If left at default of -1,
behavior is as current -- bevel face material is taken from the
closest original face (this may be ambiguous). If material slot
is >= 0, it gives the material slot index number for the material
to use.
This commit introduces the ability to make the Build Modifier operate in reverse,
essentially allowing it to be used as a "deconstruction" effect.
(See D219 for more details about use cases for this)
- When existing faces are available use their UV values
- When no faces are connected to an edge - generate UV's
Also add option to stretch U/V to bounds.
Quads: Beauty, Fixed, Fixed Alternate, Shortest Diagonal
Ngons: Beauty, Scanfill
* Shortest Diagonal is the default method in the modifier (popular
elsewhere), but beauty is the default in Ctrl+T).
* Remove the need for output slot and beauty operator to be called
after Clt+T
Patch with collaborations and reviewed by Campbell Barton
Notes:
* Made those edits by full checking of py files, so I should have spoted most needed edits, yet it remains quite probable I missed a few ones, we'll fix if/when someone notice it...
* Also made some cleanup "on the road"!
* VERTEX_WEIGHT modifiers had quite a messy UI, improved the grouping of options a bit, so it is easier to scan through.
* Do not use abbreviations like "Rem" or "Dist" in the UI...
* Also small change for BEVEL modifier UI for more efficient space usage.
The previous fix limited overlap, but is sometimes
too conservative, and artists want way to turn off
the limiting, so added 'Allow Overlap' option to
modifier.
modes, so we can show degrees rather than radians. Still refers to the same
DNA variable to keep backwards compatibility.
Patch #33807 by Gottfried Hofmann.
Now modifier takes a segments parameter.
Bevel edge weights will multiply the overall amount.
For vertex-only, you can give a vertex group name,
and the weights in that will multiply the overall amount.
(Did not add those when I created that module, because I did not thought we would actually need them in usual UI code, but turned out I was wrong).
Also made some optimizations in those py gettext funcs, when i18n is disabled at build time, no need to do pyobject -> cstring -> pyobject conversions!.
This means the deformation on the input to the modifier can be re-applied ontop of the mesh cache.
In practice this is most useful for using corrective shape-keys with mesh-cache.
Also:
* Fixes a (op prop) bug which prevented, once you had baked and freed ocean once, to bake again.
* Fixed infinite values of acumulated foam when baking with foam_fade values above 1.0, now simply clipping accumulated foam value to 1.0, as already done for the "instantaneaous" foam value returned by BKE_ocean_jminus_to_foam().
* Added missing RNA descriptions.
* Made foam_fade unanimatable!
* Added in UI some missing properties that are imho useful: random seed, size (kindof 'surface scaling'), and foam_fade (baking only).
* Removed custom lerp() func from bke's ocean.c, BLI's interpf does exactly the same thing (the first two args are just in reversed order). Note: this could most certainly be done in other parts of the code, bpy's mathutils for e.g. has its own linear interpolation code for vectors and matrices :/).
* Did some general code cleanup (mostly line length and no C++ -> C comments)...
Based on patch [#30837] UV Offset Modifier
by Pawel Kowal (pkowal)
- Allows you to setup a transformation between objects to apply to UV coords.
- Option to select which axis apply to U/V.
- Option to select the UV center (needed for transformations that scale or rotate).
- Uses from/to objects in a similar way to the Warp modifier.
- Vertex group can be used to adjust influence.
Useful for bump map baking where a consistent triangulation should be enforced when baking/exporting/importing, to avoid artifacts caused by a different triangulation of the mesh by that which was used for baking by internal/external tools.

Will probably add some pictures too to demonstrate the issue that is solved more clearly.
Currently using the skin modifier icon, will soon change that.
Review by Brecht, thanks!
