The equivalent of Bruno's "-l 29" enblend tip for multiblend, if anyone is interested, is "--wideblend" :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hugin and other free panoramic software" group.

The easy way to fill black areas is using Inpaint, here is tutorial on vendor site: http://www.theinpaint.com/inpaint-how-to-fill-black-areas-of-a-panorama.html -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hugin and other free panoramic software" group.

I did some tests with the 'resynthesize' gimp plugin. Actually, you can use it in two differents ways. - Smart remove selection on an empty area. Just select the area then activate the function. It provide interesting results mostly for small areas. - The other way is to resynthesize a texture to a selected area. This is particularly useful for the grass on the ground or part of the sky. In case the area is not homogeneous enought in terms of texture, it is better to split it and run the process on each sub-division of the area. Results may be very good. In both cases, the result can be almost perfect. Unfortunately, this is not always the case, there are many situations which provides poor results. Obviously, the problem of filling black areas does not have a unique solution. Depending of each case, on solution can provide better results than the other. The best is probably to practice and get experienced in every solutions in order to use the most appropriate for each image.

Hi Panhobby I am also a free-hand-panorama-shooter and often have the same problem that same smaller parts are missing, especially on the end photos of horizontal panoramas. If you do not have architecture or other straight lines near the missing bits, then you can use the "curve bend" function of GIMP during postprocessing. Just cut a rectangular piece bigger than the missing part, bend the corresponding border of it to push the black part outwards, and reinsert it. I have put a short description (unfortunately in Italian, but the pictures should illustrate the approach) here: https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0BzpxJZ2Uygp_OTg1YTIxYzItZDQ3NC00ZjgyLTg4NWMtZDdlYjVkYTFhMTE4&hl=en&authkey=CJvX57AP Volker On 4 Gen, 22:17, panhobby wrote: > Hi, > > I'm now shooting almost only handheld panoramic pictures.

[hugin-ptx] Re: How to fill black areas of a panorama?
I tested the solution described by Bruno. Put an additional image and move it manually to appropriate location then create the panorama (using enblend). On my first example, the result is perfect, even without adjusting the parameter (-I 29). I will do some more tests in order to validate the approach, then I will take some time to write a small tutorial. But, sorry, the first version will in French!

If the image isn't connected to other images with control points, you can drag it around freely. You can delete all CPs for an image if you select it in the images tab and then press 'delete control points'. This will only remove CPs for this image and not affect the others. When you fit your fisheye sky to the rest of the image, masking non- sky portions is a good idea as well - blending errors in clouds or the blue sky will not be very noticable. And to fill areas 'intelligenly' you may want to look at the 'resynthesize' gimp plugin: http://www.logarithmic.net/pfh/resynthesizer It's a bit hard to figure out, but if you get it to work for you, sometimes the effect is surprisingly good.
