[Bf-committers] Question On New Space Type

Hello my name is Chris Stones and I'm trying to create a new Editor Space for Motion Tracking using the libmv library. I've been following this diff from when the Console Space was added in order to figure out how to add another Space Type. (ex. svn diff -r21610:21611 > consolespacetype.txt ) The

[Bf-committers] Auto-execute scripts setting

Hi Campbell, It appears that there is no way to enable this setting on files that have had this saved in (i.e. they were saved on a computer where the value for this was to not execute). If allowing Py/RNA access to this is "dangerous", perhaps we should consider a UI template in C which sets this

sorry, I haven't time to check latest version :) it looks great :) I would start counting from top left corner instead of bottom left i think it isn't tested well ;) in small height around 60-80 px blender crashes (rev27764 win);) it also gives interesting result on high resolutions when cyphers or

Re: [Bf-committers] new UV test grid

Though I didn't get a crash, text drawing into a buffer currently doesnt check array bounds, so even though its bad that this crashes, its just exposing a bug which could happen in other cases too (when stamping for instance). text drawing into a buffer just needs fixing. On Fri, Mar 26, 2010 at

Re: [Bf-committers] new UV test grid

Campbell, I understand that but realistically there are no many resolution that people need/use. Once you provide a 1024,2048, 4096 version you cover the basis. But having a general system for loading the UV texture grip means that the user will be able to add a texture of choice by simply dropping

Re: [Bf-committers] new UV test grid

Anyone can add a python extension which has a set of useful, premade UV grid images, these can be added to the image menu but have the disadvantage that they need to be distributed with the blend file, though if they are only grids, its not so important. But Id not make these default, images could

Hello, I was thinking about how to improve blender to allow more conventional compositing UI and I think this could be usefull to you: -When using node compositing we sometimes need an "Overlay UI" on the image (in the image editor showing the viewer node). For exemple bezier nodes, 2d transform

Re: [Bf-committers] new UV test grid

Campbell, sorry for belaboring this point but this issue brings up a major point about Blender. There is a difference about what can be done: "Anyone can add a python extension", and what should be done to improve usability of Blender. We know that the level of user-friendliness of Blender is its m

Re: [Bf-committers] new UV test grid

I think there is a compromise here, where someone was working on a library for Blender, to be distributed with the install. The oldLibrary script was a BIG step in the right direction, and the effort to make a set of settings for procedural, I am sure, could be expanded to include a stock set of i

Blender is made for the professional, not for the average computer user. It reminds me nothing of an Apple application and that makes me happy. On 3/26/2010 8:57 AM, Paolo Ciccone wrote: > This is (about) how friendly Blender is "out of the box" for the average > user. > __

Re: [Bf-committers] new UV test grid

Paolo, You might be assuming that you are arguing for something that Campbell is against. That might not be the case. The new UV test grid (and the old one) can be created procedurally very easily. Therefore Blender can be shipped with these two grids without unnecessarily bloating the insta

[Bf-committers] GSoC, sculpt and multires

Re: [Bf-committers] new UV test grid

And as always, why would "made for the professional" mean that it needs to be userUNfriendly? The so called 'pros' who want to do things the hard way, are in fact no pros at all. If one does real work, one has to deal with real deadlines, and will appreciate everything that makes life easier. A

[Bf-committers] Alpha

I have often needed to fade out a model in the editor or object mode. For example, I am making something based on a background plan but I can't see the plan once the model is on top of it. If I had an alpha slider for each object, then I could see it when I wanted to and make it solid when needed.

Jason, I just sent you a PM, I'm taking already too much space here. BTW, just wanted to add that what I'm advocating for is not a replacement solution but an additional option integrated in Blender's menu system. Static and procedural checkers can coexist. -- Paolo Ciccone www.preta3d.com www.pao
