This API is used to set the current locale for libobs, which it will set
for all modules when a module is loaded or specifically when the locale
is manually changed.
Currently, if a user presses 'OK' or 'Apply' on the settings window, it
will save all data from all controls on a settings pane, regardless of
whether of not they were changed. The major issue with this is that
setting the data will overwrite all default values, making it impossible
for default values to be used if a user didn't actually change a value.
(Thanks to palana for pointing this fact out)
So instead, mark a control as 'changed' using QObject::property() and
QObject::sender(), and add a few helper functions to controls to ensure
that they are checked to see whether they were actually changed directly
by the user before saving the value to the config.
If the scene item has a bounding box set up for it, do not make it use
aspect ratio clamping by default.
Instead, make it so that shift will turn on aspect ratio, and make it
also apply to all types of bounding box modes.
The only time where aspect ratio clamping should apply by default is
when bounds are not in use (i.e. when a source is just created). Some
will disagree with me just because that's how photoshop does it, but
we're not photoshop, and I feel that the majority of users will have
more trouble with it disabled by default than enabled by default.
So to sum it up:
If bounds inactive, clamp aspect ratio by default, because scene items
start out with it inactive, and it directly affects the scale.
If bounds active, do not clamp aspect ratio by default, because clamping
to aspect ratio doesn't particularly have an effect for mode bounds
modes except for "stretch to bounds".
Instead of using bounds to force the source to be centered (and
unrotated), just center the source positionally on the screen. Will
also preserve rotation.
There's no reason to represent this value in terms of scale. Scale is a
useless value for users to use. What are they going to enter, 0.5?
2.0? 0.25?
Even if it can be subject to change by the source itself, and even if
it's still converted to scale internally, having it display the base
source size value is much more ideal for the user.
These are meant to reflect auto-detection configuration changes that
should not be written to the config, for example, frame rate changes
for a camera where the (user-/config-file-)configured frame rate isn't
available but a similar frame rate can be automatically chosen
Default values are now permanently stored in the obs_data_items and
can be accessed via the new get_default functions
Also default values are no longer serialized to JSON to ease transition
to new default values
Due to the recent change with matrices, the way space is represented by
matrices is a bit different. The matrix stack represents the view
matrix, rather than the model matrix, so the position is more
representative of the camera (view) itself, rather than that of the
objects (model).
This allows, for example, disconnected devices for dshow/avcapture to
be listed (and to stay selected in the user config) while making them
unavailable for selection in new sources
Common services that require specific encoder settings (specified in the
'recommended' section of the json file) will now have those encoder
settings applied before the encoders start up.
This fixes the issue with services like twitch that weren't getting
their required 2-second keyframe maximum interval set.
The 'initialize' callback is used before the encoders/output start up so
it can adjust encoder settings to required values if needed.
Also added the function 'obs_encoder_active' that returns true or false
depending on whether that encoder is active or not.
Every time I created a source I found myself in need to actually open up
the properties. It was getting somewhat on my nerves, so I decided to
just make it automatically pop up when the source is created.
Structures with anonymous unions would a warning when you do a brace
assignment on them.
Also fixed some unused parameters and removed some unused variables.
Add a 10 pixel padding to the sides and remove viewport cutting to
ensure that the editing rectangles are visible even when in the upper
corners.
Also, add a black background for the actual 'scene' in the preview
window so that the scene boundries are actually visible in relation to
the rest of the preview space.
So, scene editing was interesting (and by interesting I mean
excruciating). I almost implemented 'manipulator' visuals (ala 3dsmax
for example), and used 3 modes for controlling position/rotation/size,
but in a 2D editing, it felt clunky, so I defaulted back to simply
click-and-drag for movement, and then took a similar though slightly
different looking approach for handling scaling and reszing.
I also added a number of menu item helpers related to positioning,
scaling, rotating, flipping, and resetting the transform back to
default.
There is also a new 'transform' dialog (accessible via menu) which will
allow you to manually edit every single transform variable of a scene
item directly if desired.
If a scene item does not have bounds active, pulling on the sides of a
source will cause it to resize it via base scale rather than by the
bounding box system (if the source resizes that scale will apply). If
bounds are active, it will modify the bounding box only instead.
How a source scales when a bounding box is active depends on the type of
bounds being used. You can set it to scale to the inner bounds, the
outer bounds, scale to bounds width only, scale to bounds height only,
and a setting to stretch to bounds (which forces a source to always draw
at the bounding box size rather than be affected by its internal size).
You can also set it to be used as a 'maximum' size, so that the source
doesn't necessarily get scaled unless it extends beyond the bounds.
Like in OBS1, objects will snap to the edges unless the control key is
pressed. However, this will now happen even if the object is rotated or
oriented in any strange way. Snapping will also occur when stretching
or changing the bounding box size.
There are a ridiculous number of features related to scaling and
positioning due to requests by a number of people who complained that
they hated the way that OBS1 would always resize their sources when the
source's base size changed. There were also people who wanted more
control for how the resizing was handled, or the ability to completely
prevent resizing entirely if desired. So I made it so that you can
optionally use a 'bounds' system, which allows you to specify different
styles of controlling resizing.
If disabled, the source will always automatically resize and only the
base scale is applied. If enabled, you have a variety of different ways
to limit/control how it can resize within the bounds, or make it so it
can't resize at all. You can also control alignment within that
bounding box, so you can make it so that a source always aligns to a
side or corner of the box.
I also added an alignment value which changes how the source is oriented
relative to the position of the scene item. For example, setting
bottom-right alignment will make it so that the position of the item is
the bottom right corner of the source. When the source resizies, it
will resize leftward and upward in that case, which solves the problem
of how a source resizes relative to a desired position.
