* Added a new macro SNAME() that constructs and caches a local stringname.
* Subsequent usages use the cached version.
* Since these use a global static variable, a second refcounter of static usages need to be kept for cleanup time.
* Replaced all theme usages by this new macro.
* Replace all signal emission usages by this new macro.
* Replace all call_deferred usages by this new macro.
This is part of ongoing work to optimize GUI and the editor.
This also acts as a general-purpose "deselect" shortcut since pressing
it a second time will deselect text.
This is available both in the script editor and in TextEdit fields
in use, both in the editor and projects.
The Duplicate Line script editor shortcut was moved to Ctrl + Shift + D
since it conflicts with the new shortcut (Ctrl + D). The rationale for
doing so is that Duplicate Line is a less commonly used action, and
its behavior can be replicated by copying and pasting the current line
anyway. (With no selection active, the whole line will be copied.)
When ctrl-clicking in the code editor, the view will now be centered on the function result.
Also replaces a circumstance where goto_line_centered should be used.
This removes hardcoded actions from things like LineEdit and TextEdit.
Previously, things like copy, paste, etc were all hardcoded to Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, etc. They could not be changed. This allows the possibility of them being changed, by making them use the action map. This has the added benefit of greatly simplifying the input handling logic in those controls. The logic which was previously in a huge and hard to follow switch statement has been extracted to individual methods.
-Added a new method in Resource: reset_state , used for reloading the same resource from disk
-Added a new cache mode "replace" in ResourceLoader, which reuses existing loaded sub-resources but resets their data from disk (or replaces them if they chaged type)
-Because the correct sub-resource paths are always loaded now, this fixes bugs with subresource folding or subresource ordering when saving.
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
unhandled_key_input changed to unhandled_button_input. Controls can set a 'shortcut_context' which they can then use to determine if their shortcuts should be triggered or not, based on if the viewport's focused GUI control is a child of their 'shortcut context'.
