I think that's what we have the Fast Preview window for.


I think the OP means provide a shorter list of projections (each with 
accompanying explanatory text) for beginniners, with an Advanced button 
or some other way for people to access the full list of projections if 
they want.


I don't see much need for a shorter list. The present list puts the 
"common" basic projections first. The Fast Preview makes it very easy to 
see the effects of a particular projection on your panorama, and so far 
(for my panoramas) Hugin has usually come up with the best projection 
without me having to pick a projection at all.

[hugin-ptx] Re: Creating multiple panoramas from a .bat file

[Gitominoti]

Where can I find it then? I downloaded the one at your cpan (http://
search.cpan.org/dist/Panotools-Script/bin/match-n-shift), but all of
the files included in the bin folder are .file types (and not .exe so
I can't open/use them). The one I'm using now is from here:
http://www.panoguide.com/forums/qna/4942/ . I'm having a really hard
time just trying to track down the .exe's for any of the plugins that
are mentioned in the wiki, let alone find good documentation for them.
Even that pto_gen file you mentioned, is nowhere to be found.

I was fiddling around with what I had earlier today, and I got it to
work somewhat (not really). It recognized the pictures, but it
destroyed the panorama (completely distorted it, some parts were
flipped and it wouldn't crop properly). I also still needed to keep
a .pto file that I had made in Hugin in the folder with the .bat file
so it wouldn't crash.

Again, thanks for the help

This is an ancient match-n-shift (it runs some tools from 
autopano-sift-c directly).  There was a current Windows version 
of all the Panotools::Script tools posted to this list recently.

Actually, the line should be

match-n-shift -o test.pto folder1/1.jpg folder2/1.jpg folder3/1.jpg

I've even tried taking the picture out of the folders, but that didn't
work either.

[hugin-ptx] Re: Creating multiple panoramas from a .bat file

[Gitominoti]

One last question. I have to use match-n-shift to make my .pto
templates so that I can specify what photos need to be in the
panorama. I found that to call it you need:

match-n-shift [options] --output project.pto image1 image2 [...]

So for my code (with the images in separate folders), I have this
code:

match-n-shift --output test.pto folder1/1.jpg folder2/1.jpg folder3/
jpg

However, I get a lot of errors.

'generatekeys' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
^ is repeated 3 times
'autopano' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Use of unintialized value in division (/) at loader /loader/0x1471490/
match-n-shift.pl line 168
^ repeated dozens of times for several other lines

Do I have the right match-n-shift? Or am I calling it wrong? You say I
have to have Perl. Te place that I downloaded match-n-shift from came
with a file called perl58.dll. Is that all I need, or is there
something else?

Thanks

Make sure to also follow the links at the bottom of the page: the talks

also feature reprojections.



With the actual GUI, I would not know how to fit a thumbnail
explaining the projection, though I think I saw somthing
like that in another panorama software, but I cant remember
which one.


Take a readily stitched equirectangular panorama, load it in a new hugin 
project (with lens type "Equirectangular" and hfov 360 degrees) and use 
the Fast Preview window.
Jumping between different projections sometimes leads to strange 
settings, so to reset it's best to temporarily go back to 
equirectangular and then start again with exploring new worlds...

As a newbye in computer graphics, I am often confused with all the
available projections: I see many names, without having any idea of
what a particular projection means and what it could be useful for.

I suggest to add to every projection at least a tooltip or an
explication text which could help the user to orientate himself in the
choice.


Maybe a tooltip that simply contains a link to 
wiki.panotools.org/Projections would be helpful for some.



A second suggestion is to show the user a reduced number of projection
(with easy explicative text) as a default behaviour, giving the
advanced user the possibility to see and use all the projections.


I think that's what we have the Fast Preview window for.
