Re: [Bf-committers] Proposal for 8 bpc sRGB / 32 bpc linear float
This info is available in the Image panel, under the file name it has some text including something like Image size: X*Y, RGB float or RGB byte On Sun, Jan 1, 2012 at 5:56 AM, Troy Sobotka troy.sobo...@gmail.com wrote: There seems to be quite a bit of confusion with regards to the two different buffer formats in Blender and how they are handled internally. From an artist perspective, this is deadly complicated as if you are, for example, painting in 8 bpc sRGB space, your overs are not linear whereas in 32 bpc, they are. I propose two simple changes within Blender that would help artists understand where and how they are working with respect to the buffers: 1) A readout in the UV Image viewer that shows that a buffer is either 8 bpc sRGB, 32 bpc linear, or any other format. The grey area where the RGB values and Alpha are displayed would be the most logical. 2) A check to force float. Currently via lazy allocation may leave the values in 8 bpc sRGB for things such as painting. A checkbox (similar to the VSE minus the confusing sRGB format) would force the float buffer to be defined and cleared when not. And most importantly, have a happy New Year...

[Bf-committers] Developer meeting notes, sunday january 1st 2012
Hi all, Happy new year for everyone! It was a lazy sunday apparently, we only had a short meeting with few topics. Here's the overview: 1) 2.62 targets No change really, the list of targets are mentioned here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Projects Ton added the 'ID/bone/constraint name lenght fix' back, will be done together with Sergey. Preferably should be done the simple way for now (add 32 chars to static arrays). Before changing it, advice will be sought via proposal or patch. 2) Other projects Andrea Weikert is back with time to work on asset browsing/managing. Will be done in branch, so a proposal and designs are going to be reviewed there first. Antonis still has proposal for faster selection code in Blender: http://www.pasteall.org/27077/diff Needs careful review and test still, especially for older systems Thanks, -Ton- Ton Roosendaal Blender Foundation t...@blender.orgwww.blender.org Blender Institute Entrepotdok 57A 1018AD Amsterdam The Netherlands ___ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
[Bf-committers] Cmake Errors
Hi, blender building with Cmake is no longer working: CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:1413 (ADD_CHECK_C_COMPILER_FLAG): ADD_CHECK_C_COMPILER_FLAG Macro invoked with incorrect arguments for macro named: ADD_CHECK_C_COMPILER_FLAG -- Blender Skipping: (bf_collada;extern_openjpeg;extern_redcode) -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! ___ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
Re: [Bf-committers] Cmake Errors
Hi Kel,
I confirm this error. I've added the author of the related commits in
CC, hopefully he can fix it:
http://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-committers/2011-December/034716.html
http://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-blender-cvs/2012-January/042269.html
It seems that this call
ADD_CHECK_C_COMPILER_FLAG(CC_REMOVE_STRICT_FLAGS
C_WARN_NO_UNUSED_BUT_SET_VARIABLE )
is missing a third argument since the macro definition is this:
macro(ADD_CHECK_C_COMPILER_FLAG
_CFLAGS
_CACHE_VAR
_FLAG)
include(CheckCCompilerFlag)
CHECK_C_COMPILER_FLAG(${_FLAG} ${_CACHE_VAR})
if(${_CACHE_VAR})
# message(STATUS Using CFLAG: ${_FLAG})
set(${_CFLAGS} ${${_CFLAGS}} ${_FLAG})
else()
message(STATUS Unsupported CFLAG: ${_FLAG})
endif()
endmacro()
Happy New Year!

It will only further cement blender's status as an unreliable amateur hobbiest tool. Blender should never crash. I think he has a good point. I don't personally care if blender clashes when old programs try and load new blender blend files but I might be nice to have the new blender versions have code that does something like: Load file, check compatibility variable and if it fails print contained message. So the file header might have (works with) 2.5.5 to 2.8, (if not in this range than print) error massage. The error massage might contain some helpful info like how the file might be converted to work etc. This will prevent blender of the future from ever having to face this choice again. I also think that move from the old system to Bmesh is a big enough change to warrant a big version number change or even as he suggested a new blender extension.
