I didn't know that.

You did a great job and I do not give you the credit you deserve. Shame on
me.

You are right in that there are two options in the CP generator pane. I
never choose autopano because I know it's not available on OSX. I now
selected it on purpose and it works  just the way you describe.
Very nice.

Thank you !

Harry

That's not fully correct. There is also a native linux version of
autopano.

Something similar is done. It works on windows and linux. On Mac,
where autopano is not available, there comes a message box, when you
choose to use autopano and switch automatically back to autopano-sift.

Nicolas is right.
To explain my probable cryptic addition. The original and still existing
autopano-sift is a mono (.net in windows) "executable" which was a
cross-platform "semi-compiled" program. autopano-sift-c is a complete
C/C++-remake of the relatively slow autopano-sift.

And next to that: the mentioned autopano is a (by now) somewhat older
program and only available for/on windows. You can use it on on Linux and
OSX if your run a windows version of hugin and autopano via wine.
It has already been suggested several times to remove the option from hugin
to reduce confusion, but there is still a number of devoted windows users
that use autopano.

A better suggestion might be to make it a "conditional compilation" step
like: If Windows { display autopano as option} else {don't display}
This shouldn't be too difficult for a programmer.

I don't know exactly the difference, but would expect that it is related to
the way the output is done.

This being said, here is what is configured in the latest builds for what
you mentioned

Panomatic: autopano-sift
match n shift: autopano-sift
align image stack: autopano-sift

hope this helps
