Currently when using "Fused and blended panorama" Hugin makes assumptions about what is or isn't a stack based on percentage overlap of the images. It doesn't need to have complete overlap, but too little overlap will cause Hugin to use enblend for combining the images rather than enfuse. > Here might be another clue: I saw in the on-screen log more than once > "enfuse: warning: only one input image given." It sounds like Hugin is assuming each image is in a separate stack, so isn't enfusing them at all. Try "Blended and fused panorama" instead of "Fused and blended panorama". This works by using enblend to combine layers with a similar exposure value, then using enfuse to combine the layers together. So it works better on panoramas where differently exposed shots are not similarly aligned, but it requires the e.v. are set more or less correctly. > Which raises a secondary question: is there a way to save the log file > so I can look at it more carefully? You can run the stitch in a terminal. Saved with the pto file is a pto.mk file, which is a makefile. So you can make the stitch with a command like this: make -f project_file_name_here.pto.mk If Hugin detects an error, the stitch window doesn't close automatically. In this case you can just copy the text out of it. -James -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
