Thanks, Bruno. Yup, I can see that. It's interesting that different ways of using/organizing the underlying tools definitely have their advantages. Obviously I love Hugin. But in stitching that big Martian pano I see that what works for a partial pano or on a full pano created from just 4-12 wide angle images is very different from what might work well on a pano with scores or hundreds of images. It stimulates me to think of ways the Hugin UI could be arranged that might work in more situations. Or perhaps there might be different variations on the preview window that one might choose from. For example I have started to see that I prefer using Harry's "ImageFuser" for certain things. And of course now I'm seeing how the command line might be desirable for certain things. And then there's scripting . . . It's a buffet of choices, all with their tradeoffs.
