hey<br>while doing research for annotating objects with some details (for the blender repo client framework project)<br><br>- I stumbled upon a blending into python book entry here : <a href="http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Blending_Into_Python/Custom_datablock_properties">http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Blending_Into_Python/Custom_datablock_properties</a><br>
<br>- and a 2.42 python api release log on bf-committers which dates back to january 2007 : <br>* Blender lib data - Added IDproperties to most libdata - a way you can <br>assign arbitrary properties data to any Blender libdata.<br>
[...]<br>Ton has two items on his todo before bcon4<br><br>* buttons/panel for custom properties<br>* cache limitor for new image code<br><br>the second item might get punted to after 2.43<br>[...]<br><br>-there's also the python api related page (for objects here but the properties attribute exist for all kinds of datablocks) where you can see the IDGroup:properties attribute :<br>
<a href="http://www.blender.org/documentation/246PythonDoc/Object.Object-class.html">http://www.blender.org/documentation/246PythonDoc/Object.Object-class.html</a><br><br clear="all">do you know if some GUI work has been done in C or python to be able to display&edit non game engine custom properties ?<br>
<br>Do you also know what projects use this IDGroup:properties python functionnality ? There's just things that look like proposals blending into python on the wikibook).<br><br>I'd be ok to do something in python + gui to be able to do show+edit for all those custom properties, because this relates to the repo client project I'm working on<br>
(in our case : details on the original author of the object, date published, parent blend file it originates from, repository adress it originates from....)<br><br>jonathan<br><br>-- <br><a href="http://www.jaxtr.com/myselfhimself">http://www.jaxtr.com/myselfhimself</a>
