Public bug reported:
There are panoramas like nature landscapes that need to take more from
the projection.
In those cases, some or more pixels could be taken from the projection
outside the crop with more or less distortion, but without becoming
unnatural.
For such cases, a distortion/morph/reshaping could be made similar to
GIMP cage processing or Adobe's Camera RAW boundary warp tool.
The goal would be either calculate some approximate polygon around the
projection and generate a transformation in a range 0% - 100% that would
reshape the projection to a rectangle, leaving the user to adjust the
amount according to his taste, either let the user adjust himself the
projection similarly to GIMP's cage tool, either make both options
available in Hugin's tradition, depending on the chosen mode, simple or
advanced/expert.
In order to better explain the reason for this request, I provide here
my limited experience I've had with GIMP trying to reshape panoramas
I've made with the cage tool. I put emphasis on "my experience".
In short, I have stitched 9 images in Hugin, that generated an 148MB TIFF of
about 8600 x 2600 px.
I've opened GIMP and made a cage of 14 points, then started adjust it.
On my i7 920 with 24GB RAM system, took about 15 mins to calculate the initial
cage definition, then about 1-3 mins to move points. It is a painful process
and sometimes the cage disappears for some reason (bug?), sometimes I need to
come back to the process, in which case I have to redefine the cage again and
again, which is totally unproductive, as the cage can't be persisted even using
GIMP native format, xcf. Also, working with the full image is a consuming
process, so I think Hugin should work with a smaller sample, as the panorama
preview seems to use.
