Light Painter

Changelog

• bugfix: onscreen drawings no longer persist in other 3D views once the operator finishes
• updated notice in README: Light Painter will be archived and eventually deleted on GitHub mirror, official repo will continue to live on projects.blender.org

Changelog

• bugfix: initialization issue, should now support Blender 4.4!
• bugfix: shadow flag tool text would not appear and flood console with errors
• feature: (experimental) Convex hull painting allows you to paint onto a convex representation of the mesh you draw over, instead of its actual mesh. Can be useful for painting over especially dense meshes. Press the H key to toggle its usage on the main paint tools.

Changelog

• Fix bug setting shadow method that no longer exists in 4.3
• fixed unit test to work for 4.3 (not in add-on)

Please report any errors to github.com/semagnum/light-painter or projects.blender.org/SMagnusson/light-painter!

Changelog

• Adds option to show keymap text in the status bar, enabled by default
• Disables keymap text in 3D view header by default (if you already have the add-on, it should stay enabled unless you turn it off)

Changelog

• #8 Customizable keymaps! By opening the new add-on preferences (click the dropdown for the add-on after enabling it), you can remap the tool keys as you see fit.
• #6 Keymap overlay: that keyboard shortcuts and attribute info cluttering the header? Now, users have a convenient text overlay displaying the same information in the 3D view. Can be enabled/disable and repositioned in the preferences.

Changelog

#5 bug fixed: mesh light's flatten toggle keyboard shortcut did not get picked up, in favor of power mode. Unit tests added in code repository to prevent future keymap clashes.

Changelog

• [FIX] drag mode would end early if shortcut key is held down for too long, now they trigger upon release/keyup of shortcut key
• limit allowed navigation keys to just "3D view" keyboard shortcuts
• [FIX] commasin wrong position for mesh tools' text headers
• minor code reformatting

Changelog

• Hotfix: the "Reload Scripts" operator in 4.2 breaks Light Painter due to the absolute import not working
• Light Painter checks allows navigation-related keyboard shortcuts to work so users can move around the 3D scene while painting. The keyconfig is now cached to speed up those navigation checks.

Changelog

• bug fix: "radius mode" and command was displayed when painting area lamps, which don't have a radius mode

Changelog

• Updated README and manifest that Light Painter is in transition to moving to its new home: projects.blender.org/SMagnusson/light-painter
• move shader definition to the module level for reuse, updated tests to work in background mode
• optimized keymap lookup
• fixed bug - refactor light object deletion upon cancelling to mitigate Blender's depsgraph handler from triggering
• fixed bug - previously, mesh light paint manipulated mesh objects previously selected. Existing selection is cleared upon using tool (but should be restored if cancelled) to match behavior of other add object tools - only new object is active and selected afterward.
