- Constructive modifiers are enabled by default in sculpt mode.
- There's option to disable all constructive modifiers in the "Options"
panel of toolbox in sculpt mode,
- Use one column in options panel to make strings easier to read
- No modifiers would still be applied on multires
- installing an addon which creates a new script directory didn't add this to the sys.path.
- installing the addon was meant to set the search string to the addon name but was broken.
simple modifier, almost like a hook, except it can deform with 2 object source -> target, has option to preserve rotation and use different falloff types.
Simple incorrect property accessing fix (enum_items vs. items).
Additional change: removed hotkey to toggle airbrush in sculpt mode
TODO: incorrect hotkeys are shown in stroke method menu, but it's how
hotkey string detecting works now.
Made some improvements to the point density texture. Added support
for tweaking the falloff with a custom curve. Also coded new
falloff types based on the age or velocity of particles.
Also added a test break check to the volumetric shade cache code,
to avoid nasty hangups from the preview render (on render, exit,
etc).
Some notes about code status:
* The Blender modifications were fairly quickly put together, much more code
polish and work is needed to get this to a state where it can be committed
to trunk. Files created with this version may not work in future versions.
* Only simple path tracing is supported currently, but we intend to provide
finer control, and more options where it makes sense.
* For GPU rendering, only CUDA works currently. The intention is to have the
same kernel code compile for C++/OpenCL/CUDA, some more work is needed to
get OpenCL functional.
* There are two shading backends: GPU compatible and Open Shading Language.
Unfortunately, OSL only runs on the CPU currently, getting this to run on
the GPU would be a major undertaking, and is unlikely to be supported soon.
Additionally, it's not possible yet to write custom OSL shaders.
* There is some code for adaptive subdivision and displacement, but it's far
from finished. The intention is to eventually have a nice unified bump and
displacement system.
* The code currently has a number of fairly heavy dependencies: Boost,
OpenImageIO, GLEW, GLUT, and optionally OSL, Partio. This makes it difficult
to compile, we'll try to eliminate some, it may take a while before it
becomes easy to compile this.
* Implemented a new operator "WM_OT_properties_context_change" to switch to a different tab inside the properties window.
* This is used now inside the Modifier tab for Simulation Modifiers. Based on a mockup by Janne Karhu:

Rather than having a delete button there anymore, the button changes the context to Physics/Particles, where you can edit the settings and delete the actual simulation.
- continue zoom now uses the same options as dolly (hoz/vert & invert).
- remove event mouse coord hack to bypass touchpad zoom invert, instead pass invert as an argument.
A change in the poll callback that Available KeyingSet used to use
restricted its use to Object-mode only, while this could also be
useful in Pose Mode (though it would only affect all channels there).
Made this use a custom poll callback now that tests for whether the
active object has an action. This does mean that if you select a bunch
of objects with animation data, but the active object doesn't have it,
then the keyingset will fail to fire, but that's been marked as a todo
in the code.
EditMode mesh: tool "Mesh Rip Move" shouldnt be in the toolbar.
The tool was coded to use the mouse position next to the selection.
The rip then happens correctly after pressing V and move mouse away
from selection.
- render check for ortho/panorama combination wasn't working since the flags were not initialized at the time of checking.
- disable panorama button in ortho mode.
- only attempt to restore old 'user' settings (not local), since bundled blender's always use their own settings.
- only automatically run 'bpy.ops.wm.read_homefile()' after copying files if the user hasnt alreadt started making changes in the blend file.
