control point finders are a plug-in - hence when you say "Hugin finds 
points" you make a shortcut. you could be using autopano-sift-C, 
pan-o-matic, match-point or any other.

theoretically also the warping function is plug-in, but currently only 
nona is supported (adding PTmender should not be too difficult).

also for blending - although currently it is enblend and enfuse. there 
is a wrapper for smartblend.

not the same "architecture". these are all plugins within the workflow, 
while panostart is to set up the beginning of a workflow. egg and 
chicken problem.

I don't think that adding a GUI to panostart is that difficult, but I 
also don't see it as a priority. it works well from the command line, 
and this is where the value is, simply because there are other steps 
that need to be scripted at the same time (such as RAW conversion).

[hugin-ptx] Next GUI - take 2

2009-10-12 Thread Yuval Levy

Hi all,

I think it will take a few iterations, here is the next one. The 
"traditional preview vs. fast preview" was focused too much on one 
aspect of the whole - an important one, but we should not limit 
ourselves to that aspect - nor to the pseudo-workflow aspect of the 
current tabbed design of the main application window - when re-designing 
the GUI.

So I wipe out my drawing board and start from scratch again.

First, a word about my motives and how I intend to go about this.

I am scratching my own itch. If it is helpful for others, good. If not, 
that's OK too. I will try to avoid conflicts, which means that I will 
not commit to trunk things that have not been agreed - or if I'll do so 
I will start a development codeline.

My first objective is to articulate and develop a clear vision. It is 
better if it can be a common vision; and I appreciate everybody's 
opinion - particularly those that differ from mine because they widen up 
my thoughts and may show me aspects that I did not consider.

Once the vision is clear, I intend to go about implementing it. To me 
this is an exercise in learning wxWidgets and cross-platform GUI 
implementation.

Consensus is improbable (but not impossible) on such a broad topic 
loaded with subjectivity and preconceived notions; even more so when 
discussed at a hypothetical level. I thought whether I should run my 
thought process here in the open; or whether I should come up with 
another mockup, maybe even a functional one. I decided for the open, 
public approach because I believe that the view of a single individual 
is narrower than the view of a group. I look forward for *you* to 
influence my thought.

I'll first allow myself to say what I like. Then I will lay out the 
current state of my thinking.

I like (in order of priority):
* to use the largest possible part of the screen for preview, 
CP-editing, mask-editing, input-crop-editing.
* to control all aspects of the process down to the smallest detail and 
decide which part I delegate to automation and which one I override with 
manual intervention.
* to use the mouse the least possible.
* to use the keyboard the least possible.

There are many aspects to panorama-creation - many dimensions to look at 
things. The current application is workflow oriented. IMO this kind of 
aspect is secondary and should not determine the application's overall 
design.

There are two aspects that are central to me:
- the visual aspect (the input images and the output result)
- the control aspect (the transformations that these images undergo from 
input to output)

The workflow is merely a consequence of the two - it can be fully 
automated (in the case of the assisted workflow), or I can 
influence/control different aspects of it.

The current hierarchy of things put the workflow at the top (tabs). I 
actually never used that order. It is not that I dislike it, it is just 
not relevant (except with the 1/2/3 buttons on the assistant).

I do mainly two kind of manipulations through the Hugin GUI: 
visual-editing (V) and workflow-control (W). Currently they are mixed 
throughout the application's different windows: there is some V (like 
the CP-editor and crop tabs) in the main application tabbed interface 
which is mostly W; and there is some W (like the choice of output 
projection) in the preview window, which IMO should be V-only.

I would like Hugin to have two main windows, one V and one W. Some 
popups if warranted, although I'd make the CP list (just to name one 
popup) a tab in the W window.

On the (V)isual window I want the preview, the CP-tab; the crop tab; and 
in future the masking tab and all other visual work that depends on 
moving the mouse on the input images or output preview. What is common 
to them is that they need a large surface; and that I usually work on 
only one of them at a time. It could be tabbed, like Bruno started to 
articulate in the previous thread about the traditional preview.

On the (W)orkflow window I want to have all the text/numeric "manual" 
controls. What is common to them is that they have a logical sequence, 
but I end up jumping back and forth as I fine tune the workflow.

Some tasks can be done with both a visual or a manual control - e.g. 
dragging the final panorama crop visually or entering it manually. This 
is a user preference things and I believe both should be available - in 
the V and W window.

Right now we have unclear separation of V vs. W work, and this has 
detrimental consequences on the usage of display space.

I want to have the largest possible V-Window. I think most people do, 
although not always full screen. I'd like the development thrust to go 
toward reducing its chroma to a minimum. There are already too many 
controls on that window. Most users will open it in either full screen 
or near full screen.

Bruno expressed some interesting ideas of how the V-Window may possibly 
look, with the Compose/Crop/Layout/Slow tabs.

Things are a little bit mor

Does Hugin have a "plug-in" module?

Download and add "panostart" as a plug-in and a gui button option get's pulled 
in as well.

I'm never one who'd advocate adding more code for bloat, but I've not stumbled 
across this before.  Now I know it's there I wouldn't have an issue dumping 5-6 
pano's into it a day.

Recently I've been looking at rigging a remote trigger for the camera, as I'm 
unable to keep it as steady as I need to for Hugin to find points on clear 
photos.  My photos can be a little blurry from time to time.

I think with the new layout it will be possible. Also the recently 
introduced statistical cleaning of CP might help, although in cases of 
pure symmetry it won't help alone.

One thing that could be added to the equation is the information from

I should grab my old test case and try it.

It already exists. 


Just not integrated in the GUI. Not sure how much a GUI makes sense for 
this use case. I have a license of Autopano Pro (which is *the* "other

I reckon I have seen this behaviour, but I doubt that I could quickly

I will see what I can find.

[hugin-ptx] Flipping Photos Review

2009-10-12 Thread Dale Beams

I've just had a user explain to me that they had the same issues on photos 
flipping.  After careful review, they found in a sequence of photos, hugin was 
creating control points on no related images.  For example, in a consecutive 
series of 8 photos begining from left to right you might find photos 2 and 5 
with control points on them.  This was confusing the stitcher.  Has anyone else 
whose had flipping photo problems noticed this as well?  This would be yet 
another reason to be able to set a sequence order, etc. etc.

I did notice that some other programs are able to dump multiple photos in the 
program and it would sepearte the panos.  Junk photos are also being seperated. 
 Is this beyond the reach of Hugin and related programs?

[hugin-ptx] Re: traditional preview

2009-10-12 Thread AKS-Gmail-IMAP

In my humble opinion there is nothing wrong with the original left to  
right tab concept of Load, Align, Exposure and Create. It should stay.  
What I see (and do) in the two Previews is "Compose". For me,  
"Compose" is the missing tab and in it should be access to all the  
processes required to visualize and compose the final image, including  
cropping the individual images in remapped context if such is  
possible, which I know is possible, just tell the programmers its not  
possible and they will do it.

For anyone who wants to know, the tabbed workflow dates back to 
before the first 'autopano' control point generator appeared.

Historically the design of Hugin was based on the idea was that you 
loaded photos in the Images tab, entered your lens settings in the 
Camera and Lens tab, manually added control points in the Control 
Points tab, Optimised then Stitched in the Stitcher tab.

i.e. you moved from left to right as you went, I even think the tabs 
were numbered 1, 2, 3 etc...

With a control point generator and the Assistant, the workflow 
becomes 'Load, Align, Create', and the tabs are only used to fix 
things if this goes wrong - In whatever order makes sense.

If the Preview becomes the main interface, this 'Load, Align, 
Create' workflow needs to move to the Preview.

I added those control points again. Ran the optimize again, this time

saved my project, optimized again and clicked yes this time. The

from my point of view whether floating or embedded: it uses up the same 
surface of the screen, so the "take up screen space" argument does not hold.

There are many meanings to "properly integrated".

To me it means: implement the function so that it takes up the least 
amount of space necessary.

I don't see keyboard entry as specialist functionality. to me it is 
central part of my workflow and the way I work with Hugin.

agree. and we have strictly *nothing* that indicate workflow. to add 
complexity, our workflow is not that linear (as in: you could skip on 
some tabs; come back to other tabs later in a different order, etc).

I currently don't see any efficient way to represent the workflow. First 
of all, *the* workflow does not exist. There are many different 
variations - too many to hard-code them in any sort of linear 
representation. The workflow is dynamic. I think the workflow should not 
be at the top of the hierarchy of the interface (as it currently is, 
with the tabs). And I made the mistake of putting the fast preview at 
the top of the hierarchy. I am now convinced that there is no single 
aspect that deserves that spot, and we should enable the user to view 
the different aspects / dimensions, one or two at the time.

Hallo Thomas, and welcome.

I am following your work and I like your panoramas.

> too complicated for the readers ;-)

> sometimes imprecision is the price to pay for airplay ;-(

I know, and I am all for *simplyfing* things in exchange for airplay. 
But I am allergic to unfair distortions and untrue statements.

A statement such as "the latest Hugin is available for Linux before it 
becomes available for Windows and OSX" is untrue and unfair.

Acceptable imprecision: "available" = "binary available".

Unacceptable untrue, unfair claim: Hugin is "available" for Linux before 
it is "available" for Windows and OSX.

This is very bad for our reputation. The vast majority of potential 
users are on Windows and OSX. The statement give them the *wrong* 
impression that we care less about them than we do care about Linux users.

I actually don't care about *any* users. I scratch 
my own itches and if my byproducts ("Abfallprodukte") are useful for 
others, good for them.

To rectify the statement in your article (while keeping it simple):
* Hugin is equally available for all platforms.
* The best and most up to date binary distributions of Hugin are on OSX.

The long story:
* Hugin is distributed as a source package that builds on all platform. 
Once we release the source code it is no longer under our control. What 
others do with it it is their business. In that sense, Hugin is equally 
*not* "available" on all platforms (user's definition of "available"), 
and the Hugin team takes a lot of care to ensure that the source code 
released builds on many platforms.
* Harry's binary distributions are of the best quality and the most up 
to date known to me (there may be others I'm not aware of - as stated 
above we have no control once the source code is released). He does a 
terrific job, and others in the OSX users community are very supportive 
(e.g. when he temporarily had no access to a Mac).

I understand that the long story is not for airplay, but the short one 
is. And to be very honest with you, I find the short one in your article 
offending, because:
(a) it implies that we favor Linux over Windows over OSX - we don't.
(b) it is oblivious of the quality of Harry's work (especially 
considering how quirky it is to get things running properly on OSX)

Simplifying is an important part of the journalistic work, but not all. 
Proper research of sources comes first. I have little respect for 
"journalistic work" that is done without proper research.

OK. I downloaded from SVN. rev 4623 it told me. 

I'm working on my first HDR pano. I wasn't happy with the results so
before complaining I upgraded to 2009.4.0_rc1. 

(Among other things I think I saw it just calling enblend on the whole
set of 45 images, instead of hdr-merging (enfuse) each stack and then
blending (enblend) those images. )

Anyway, I loaded my project in 4.0_rc1, and stitched it. Now I clearly
see it doing enfuse on the stacks, and then blending the resulting images. 

I still have the dark/light bands, leaving the impression it is using
an under-exposed image in one stack and then teh normal image from the
next stack...

Anyway, I still have some ghosting because everything is not correctly
alighned, so I added a bunch of control points. "realingment needed" so
I click optimize!

Next it warns me that a very small V value has been found, do I accept
the results? I click yes, and it's been consuming CPU time since then.
100% for ten minutes. No gui responses nothing. 

I'm going to kill it and lose the control points I added. I'm not

I'm not excited by this idea that the Preview window will require a 
permanent floating toolbox.  It will take up screen space wherever 
you put it, so this functionality should just be properly integrated 
into the Preview window itelf.

Transient pop-up windows for specialist functionality like keyboard 
entry is a good thing.

Preview attached to the bottom of the main frame.

Still not convinced.  The tabbed widget has been abused by 
Hugin/PTGui to indicate workflow, it really is best when it is used 
to indicated different 'aspects' or 'views' of the same object.

This would develop into something like this: the whole Preview is a 
tabbed interface, with the tabs named 'Compose', 'Crop', 'Layout', 
'Slow' for the different 'modes' that we already have.

The Compose tab would be 'drag mode', but there would be visible 
buttons for Straighten, Centre and Fit, text entry boxes for numeric 
transform, FoV, sliders for HFoV and VFoV and all the projection 
stuff we already have.

The Crop tab would be 'crop mode', there would be an Autocrop button 
and text entry boxes for panorama pixel size and crop window.  This 
could later gain vector-mask editing functionality.

I'm not 100% convinced by this either, it's a lot like the 'ribbon' 
thing.

The main window button-bar used to have captions, but they got lost

Yes, the select all/none buttons definitely belong together with the

[hugin-ptx] Re: hugin mentioned in an article

2009-10-12 Thread thomas bredenfeld

hi carl, bruno, yuval and harry!

as i'm not member of this list up to now, thanks to carl to point me
by pm to this discussion about my article in futurezone.orf.at.

@carl
you're right. in the article there are some point which aren't as
precise as they should be. i'm sorry about that. some explanation
should be helpful:

first, these article is dedicated to a mainstream, non-specialist
audience as futurezone is in general. my intention is to point poeple
to interesting stuff besides the usual mac-windows-linux or canon-
nikon-sony battles ;-) so nobody will realize such not so precise
things like happened with the lines about hugin.

second, the articles are limited to a certain number of characters. so
things tend to be rough and an author has no chance to elaborate
things more in depth.

third, sometimes te articles get edited by the online editors staff.
here they tried to add some up-to-date information and they inserted
the hint to "hugin 2.0". that's not written by me. i don't read all
articles after they went online. so i didn'd realize this.

@bruno and yuval as hugin developers
i'm sorry about this imprecisions concerning the hugin project. but i
think it's not a drama. much more important is to spread the word.
usual futurezone articles where something is mentioned "for free" are
very popular and i m very affiliated to panotools, the lists and
panorama making in general. and also i'm a real fan of open source
projects. so jimmy wales (wikipedia) and joi ito (creative commons)
are part of the circle of friends. so this was a thankful subject.

i try to use my position as a writer and teacher to spread the word
for hugin. you'll find it mentioned in my recent photoshop book and
especially in my upcoming book about digital panoramic photography,
where i featured hugin in a detailed step-by-step workshop. so you
both and all hugin guys are invited to enjoy some additional airplay
for hugin ;-) i would be happy to cause some access peaks for you on
the hugin website ;-)

besides that i'm teaching my students how to use hugin in my
educational work in "interactive imaging".

yuval, you're right about the different versions of hugin. but that's
too complicated for the readers ;-)

sometimes imprecision is the price to pay for airplay ;-(

@ harry
as carl wrote, he isn't thinking unrespectful of me. we know each
other.
btw: featuring imagefuser in the photoshop book was fine. thanks again
for your support. in the upcoming panorama book the hdr/fusing chapter
unfortunately has to be very short, but on the book companion website
(http://panoramabuch.com) there will be some significant additional
stuff about hdr and fusing on the site. it will be lauchend beginning
of november.

keep on the good work!
kind regards
thomas

It can't be APSCpp 2.5.2 - APSCpp 2.5.2 has not been released yet.

If a binary says it is 2.5.2... caveat emptor.

The current status of APSCpp:

* 2.5.2 does not exist. The trunk, that will eventually become 2.5.2, is 
broken, work in progress, with no estimated time to fix. Nobody is 
actively working on it *now*. Nobody should distribute binaries made 
from APSCpp's trunk, as requested by Bruno a few weeks ago.

* 2.5.0 is the official "stable" release, but it has memory leaks and is 
likley to crash on large projects / low memory.

* Bruno issued recently a tarball of APSCpp 2.5.1 (RC2 right now) which 
is 2.5.0 + fixes. The RCs are also tagged in SVN. RC2 is the recommended 
one to build and distribute, and is likely to become the official stable 
release before the end of the month.

I don't recall what version of APSCpp is delivered with Ad's SVN 4075 
snapshot (note that SVN 4075 is not enough to characterize a version of 
Hugin - it could be trunk/4075; or 2009.2/4075; or 0.7.0/4075).

 From what you describe it seems that it is 2.5.0.

Bottom line of all of this: CAVEAT EMPTOR. Verify binaries before using 
them and before trusting them to do what you expect them to do.

Thanks Bart for going through the pains of doing it.

[hugin-ptx] Re: what is hugin doing to the exposure?

2009-10-12 Thread Bart van Andel

Just saved both files and ran the following steps:

- Open Hugin 2009.2.4450 (by Ad), on my Windows Vista SP3 setup.
- Clicked "Align..." on the assistant tab, which started APSCpp 2.5.2.
As you can see in the output which I pasted below, something is going
wrong: APSCpp is reporting FOV of 180 degrees. It should be closer to
75 degrees, if the 24mm reported focal length is correct. This is a
(known) bug with the current 2.5.2 build.
- Trying the "Create control points" button using Panomatic instead
(Images tab), the images got aligned well enough. Not perfect, but
well enough.
- Opened the GL preview. The image borders are clearly visible, partly
from the imperfect overlap, but also in the blue part of the sky.
- Opened the traditional preview. Image borders less well pronounced.
- Ran Exposure optimization with the default setting (low dynamic
range). The traditional preview looks better now, while the GL preview
still shows the same borders (pressing the Photometrics button shows
the optimized results, which are quite good).
- Stitching results in a seamless stitch.

NB: upon trying with an older version of APSCpp (the one supplied with
SVN 4075), the "Align" button in the assistant tab yields a perfect
result (including correct exposures) right away.

[hugin-ptx] Re: traditional preview

2009-10-12 Thread T. Modes

Hi Yuv,

I don't like the tabbed palette. This a nothing other than a
**ribbon**. So you could use a wxRibbon in wx3.0. But I don't like
this control, it hides to much controls and you have to continously
changing the tab.
E. g. if you want to change output size and crop. First you go to
image size and input the image size. Now you have to switch to the
crop tab. You start entering values. But now you don't see whats the
width. Also go you back to image size tab. And so on...

And when you want to add more functions to this tab you will end with
many tabs, because every tab has a limited size. And the tabs are
wider than the window width. And now you are in a circle.

Other idea: We could add a menu bar. In this case we could remove the
captions of the buttons and use a button size like the main window. So
we would save a lot of space. Also the Select all and Select none
buttons could go the the images buttons panel below, maybe at the
first position. And so we could win more space.

This is the real advantage of switching to a date-based versioning 
scheme, if Ubuntu was shipping with 'hugin 2007' then there would be 
pressure for the distro to upgrade.

(I'm not saying Fedora is any better, F11 has 0.7.0 and F12 will 
likely still have 0.8.0)

Nope, I didn't even realise it was installed on the system until 
Hugin launched it for me.

The HTML (wiki) manual is important, the man pages are irrelevant to 
the vast majority of users.  We need to have man pages, and if 
somebody wants to improve them then that is great, but so long as 
there is no disinformation in them they can stay as they are.

Yes, the wiki Hugin_* pages that don't reference 2009.2.0 features 
need to be updated.  Basically, the Stitcher and Images tabs have 
changed a bit, the Preferences have changed a lot

[hugin-ptx] Re: what is hugin doing to the exposure?

2009-10-12 Thread RizThon
Can you post the original pictures? I'll just check if I get the same
results as you...

Also previously I said that I could clearly distinguish the 2 pictures in
the fast preview, but it's not as pronounced as on your screenshot
http://don.vn.cz/temp/repo/hugin/huginpreview.jpg where it really looks like
the exposure of the 2nd picture was modified.

2009-10-12 Thread Oskar Sander
That's a known bug (see previously in the thread).  A workaround is to build
your project in Ad's version first, then copy the new binaries.

[hugin-ptx] Re: what is hugin doing to the exposure?

2009-10-12 Thread don

I don't understand this. I downloaded the same version as you have and
tried to use the resized photos I linked here - it stitched it without
problems. So I then took the original files (5616x3744) and did the
same process - and now the stitch looks bad again.

Crashes for me while adding photos (Nikon D90 jpegs) on Xp 32bit and
Vista 64bit.
I just copied your files over the last Ad build 4450.

[hugin-ptx] Re: what is hugin doing to the exposure?

2009-10-12 Thread RizThon
By the way in the Fast Preview i can also easily see the intersection of the
2 pictures because they don't match perfectly (the horizon is good but in
the sky a cloud isn't stitched correctly and same a lot closer on the grass)
and there's some visible vignetting. But the blended panorama is just
perfect.

I'm using "Version 2009.1.0.4240 Ad Huikeshoven".

I just dropped your 2 images in hugin (it automatically chooses "Normal
(rectilinear)", 24mm and 3.43 for the lens info), I automatically added the
control points and clicked the "Stitch now!" button (all default / automatic
values: Rectilinear, FOV 36x20, size 1494x811, "Blended panorama"
checked)and I get a nice blended panorama...

M_PI doesn't have to be defined (eg. C99 doesn't contain it). And in
C++ it's (I think) optional and some compilers doesn't define it.

[hugin-ptx] Re: what is hugin doing to the exposure?

2009-10-12 Thread don

So as I said, I'm using WinXP SP3. I tried downloading (probably) the
latest version (0.8.0.3943 Ad Huikeshoven), which was said to work on
Vista. I chose default installation, run Hugin.exe, loaded images,
pressed Align, it started looking for control points but in the end it
didn't find any (previous versions did).I addded the control points
manually and then did some exposure optimalization - the end result
was nearly OK, but still I think that PS CS4 produced it slighly
better. But because I'm too lazy to add control points manually, I
went back to the last fully working version (0.8.0.3943 Ad
Huikeshoven), did the same (except adding control points manully - the
assistant took care of this), then did the optimalization (low dynamic
range)...and the end result was bad again. I believe I must be doing
something very wrong, because this seems like incredibly easy task and
I'd swear that few years back it would have worked for me in Hugin
without any problems.

Daniel, my panorama preview looks nothing like yours - I can clearly
see the stitches in mine. It is not that bad in Fast Preview Panorama
as it is in Preview Panorama (what is the difference?) though.

If any of you would like to try and have a go with the photos, I've
uploaded them here:
