Hi all! Prompted by the discussion about ptgui's seam display feature http://groups.google.com/group/hugin-ptx/browse_thread/thread/0be2c724071484a4#
I had a close look at cropping and masking, and found behaviour which I think is not quite right: If you crop an image, the effect of the cropping is invisible in the masking window. The masking dialog still shows the whole image, uncropped. If you proceed to put an include mask onto the image which includes areas that have ben removed by cropping, the resulting panorama will show black areas there. I reckon that the effect of include masks should be intersected with the cropped area, like their effect is intersected with the area of the image total (though one can create masks that exceed the bounds of the image). Additionally, it would be nice if the cropping actually was visible in the masking dialog. Musing about this I did wonder whether the cropping feature is still worth very much now that masking is here and, in my opinion, more versatile. Is there anything that can be done with it that one cannot do with masks? What springs to mind is the inclusion of the cropping in the lens ini file, which potentially saves some work. But maybe it wouldn't be too difficult to add masks to the lens ini, rather - then, I think the cropping dialog might even become obsolete. with regards Kay -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
