If you're talking about doing this in python, there is a very useful code
snippet at BA*.
It's using old api calls, but the math behind it is still sound. I've
successfully used it in Blender 2.5.

Although this mailinglist isn't for feature requests, I'd like to stress the
first point Damir makes. I use the text-editor a lot and having cursor
movements in the undo stack almost feels like a bug to me.

Like Campbell said, that isn't very hard to do in python. Below you can find
some code for it.

Thanks for the report. Just committed a fix to SVN for the index visualiser

Since I'm not familiar with Blender's C source, I can't comment on the way
the patch is written. But as an end-user the proposed method sounds like a
good solution.
The callbacks aren't associated with specific datablocks, but since the

That's probably not a very good idea, as I mainly tweaked the bridging
to give proper results with often used situations. There isn't any
real algorithm behind it, only some nonlinear least squares methods.
Hello Andrew,
Even though this change might be for the better, it has the potential
to break existing scripts. There already was a change in the
vector/matrix multiplication order some months ago, and the result was
that a lot of users complained about broken scripts.
I have to admit that I might

The proposal made by Moraes is very interesting imho. And most of the

Hi,
Voicing in as an add-on writer: access to a least square solver would
be highly appreciated. It could simplify and speed-up the LoopTools
script.
So ideally option 1, but more realistically (taking size into
consideration): option 2 will do.
Best,

When a user has a lot of scripts in his add-ons folder, the add-ons
panel (in User Preferences) will become messy. After asking ideasman42
about it I wrote an improved user interface script, which reorganises
the panel. It adds filtering and search functionality, as well as the

Hi Campbell,
What might be helpful is to have an example of recommended practice.
Speaking for myself: right now it's often a matter of experimentation to get
things to work and this might result in solutions that depend on bad
practice.
For example, if you wish your add-on to display a panel wit
Basically we're restricted to the classes that are subclassed from the
id-type*. In the past I've had the need for assigning custom properties to
vertices, but that isn't supported either. If I remember correctly, the
reason is that it would make blender's internals clunky if every type

Good proposal. I especially like the part on separating Modify In-Place
Methods.

I just discussed this with Campbell on irc and I'll implement his suggestion

The looptools script has been updated to store the cache in the python
module instead of a custom property. New version (3.2) is now in contrib SVN
of the extensions project.
