Beside this also many bugs have fixed and many general > improvements have been made. > > > Vertical feature detection tool > > Often a panorama, created from several single photos, is not level. In > this case the experienced user adds vertical and horizontal control > points to level the panorama. > > With this release Hugin introduces a tool named /linefind/ which > automatically detects vertical features in the photos such as the > edges > of buildings and windows, and assigns vertical control points to them. > This makes it easier than before to level a panorama, in most cases it > works without any intervention. > > > Other Improvements > > * The Fast Preview window can now show composition guides such as > Rule of Thirds and Golden ratio to support an easier composition > of the final panorama. > * The output of High Dynamic Range (HDR) images has been modified to > prevent clipping of the exposure in EXR format images. The > previous versions of Hugin outputted HDR images with absolute > exposure values, now with this 2011.4.0 release, Hugin uses > relative > exposure values. This means that the output Exposure Value (EV) of > the panorama, which can be set in the preview window, has an > influence on the HDR output (as already for normal LDR images) and > should be set to the medium exposure value of the images. If you > set > the output exposure value to zero, the old behavior is restored. > * The batch processor PTBatcherGUI has been extended: > o It is now possible to directly add unaligned projects to the > assistant queue for aligning and control point generation. > o Successfully stitched projects can be automatically removed > from > the queue, this makes the queue management easier. > o If a project was successfully finished by the assistant, it > can > be automatically added to the stitching queue. This now allows > for a fully automatic panorama creation workflow. > * Many more improvements and bug fixes. > > > UPGRADING > > Upgrading from previous versions of Hugin should be seamless. If you > do have > problems with old settings, these can be reset in the Preferences by > clicking > 'Load defaults'. > > It is strongly recommeded to set the default control point detector to > Hugin's CPFind. It is the only control point generator endorsed by > Hugin. > Third-party generators may be compatible with the plug-in > architecture. > > > COMPILING > > Users compiling from source refer to the dependencies listed at > http://wiki.panotools.org/Development_of_Open_Source_tools#Dependencies > > and the build processes listed at > > http://wiki.panotools.org/Development_of_Open_Source_tools#Build_your_Own_Test_Builds > > More information in the README and INSTALL_cmake files in the tarball. > > > KNOWN ISSUES AND WORKAROUNDS > > Panosphere Overview window seperated from the content > https://bugs.launchpad.net/hugin/+bug/726997 > > > There is a known problem building Hugin with CMake 2.8.5rc2. > Workaround: Upgrade to a newer CMake version. > > > Mac OS X Users at Tiger and Lion: this version of Hugin contains an > openMP enabled > enblend and enfuse.
