The EvaluateControlPointErrorAndComponents function in libpano13's adjust.c seems find individual control point errors: http://panotools.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/panotools/trunk/libpano/adjust.c?revision=1267&view=markup#l_1945 However, it looks the the distances are adjusted after optimising here: http://panotools.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/panotools/trunk/libpano/adjust.c?revision=1267&view=markup#l_2157 Though, as you say, there are too many wrappers.

cri, I had originally renamed all my different exposure files to match up with the original exposure... That's not too bad but I think your "legit" method of just applying a different exposure's .pto file as a template is a bit better and more convenient. I'll let you know how it works out!

[hugin-ptx] Re: Any way to reuse control points on a different set of images?
Have you tried to use a template? Just load all the photo at the same exposure level and go through all the needed passages to get the final panorama. Then save the project as pto file. Now start a new poject, load all the images at a different exposure level and select "File- >Apply template". In the dialog select the previously saved pto file and you will get all the parameters loaded on the new exposure level images. In this way you could save a panorama for every exposure level. To get the best out of this procedure you need to take all the images from a tripod.

[hugin-ptx] Any way to reuse control points on a different set of images?
Gents, I have shot a few high resolution night time 180 degree panorama but I think I've been doing it wrong. My typical workflow is to shoot from three to six images of each frame, then to HDR or exposure blend these photos together and THEN to HDR the resulting images. That workflow works but if you want to make any changes to how the image is HDR'ed or exposure blended, it means you have to start all over again from the beginning. I've been thinking, why don't I create panoramas from each bracketed exposure using hugin, and then HDR and/or exposure blend the resulting panoramas? The problem is.. Hugin will most likely not select the same control points for the various different panoramas since at varying exposures, some control points will be more visible, and others will not. Is there any way to force hugin to use the same control points for a different set of images? Thanks for any help! I'm happy to show my work if y'all are interested in seeing what I've been working on so far... http://www.rickyricky.net/Photography/Panoramas/My-Panoramas Thanks, Ricardo Meleschi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.

After optimizing a window, "Optimisation result" opens and reports the average control point distance.
