I guess that where I'm coming from is that Hugin and the Stitcher tab are complex enough as it is. >I'm currently working with the exact workflow you mentioned, create a 360 >180 equi and then use this as the first element in the chain.

Mainly because we can, but also because partial panoramas are legitimate targets, and because people have a use for stitching partial equirectangular and cylindrical input. >Also, from this equirectangular, if we had many output, we could have a nice >workflow that generate all 6 faces of the cubes for some VR interface >without needing another tool, or swapping around with the same project or 6 >projects. We do actually have much of this (cubic, little-planet, thumbnails, QTVR, PanoSalado etc...) as targets in the Makefile.equirect.mk plugin - It would be trivially easy to enable this stuff in the Stitcher tab or the Batch Processor, but it adds a bunch of dependencies (ImageMagick, perl(Panotools::Script)). >> You can do this in Hugin, just import the equirectangular into a new >> project and use the various output projections, or use Tom's Panini >> tool which is specifically designed for extracting different views. >> >> What I'm trying to say is that the 'many' part is necessarily a >> post-processing step, and doesn't really benefit from being >> integrated into Hugin. -- Bruno --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
