Delete Branch "%!s(<nil>)"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Note, this is a summary of the discussion with @Sergey on IRC after it was requested that pillow be included with Blender. While I don't intend to work on this near term, I'm happy to help someone else take on this task - @ideasman42 .
(NOTE) Update: A very basic image API has been committed to master & 2.8 branch
409cfba1a3
, this was done so we can more easily accept incremental improvements.There are cases where it's useful to manipulate image data in Python, outside of Blender's image data-blocks (which are user data that's saved to file).
The Python module 'pillow' is a capable module, however we would prefer to expose Blender's internal image operations, instead of bundling pillow with Blender.
Reasons include:
We could initially support a basic API:
Once basic support is working well we might consider:
blf
API, which already works in C, use for text in the sequencer).... others cold be added, these are just suggestions.
Note that additions to this API would mean some refactoring & improvements to
ImBuf
since the Python API would be a thin wrapper onImBuf

I would like to be part of this. Though I can not work full time as I have another full-time job.

Committed to master, closing.

Correction, the API was only committed at a very basic level, so keep this open.
