I've been using Hugin to created enfused or exr HDR files from sets of image that are not a panorama. Basically, a sets of several image with different exposure of a same area.
I am meeting the following 'issues': 1- By default the projection is set to equirectilinear with an angle of 360x180. Such images needs a rectilinear projection, so I need to change the projection and calculate the field of view. 1 click on Assembling tab. 2 click on rectilinear projection. 1 click on Field of view calc. 1 click on optimal size calc. =>5 clicks consuming the user time. 2- I need to create control points to realign the images, this is easily done, but there is an issue: Is there a way to only alignate images versus the first one and not all together. eg: 7 images for panomatic, currently it does: (1-2) (1-3) (1-4) (1-5) (1-6) (1-7) (2-3) (2-4) (2-5) (2-6) (2-7) (3-4) (3-5) (3-6) (3-7) (4-5) (4-6) (4-7) (5-6) (5-7) (6-7) meaning 21 comparisons while it could do (1-2) (2-3) (3-4) (4-5) (5-6) (6-7) meaning 6 comparisons assuming the exposures are classed in this order. Is there a way to pass the control point creator the informtion to handles images in this way, so the complexity is not dependant of F(n+1) but of (n-1) (F = Fibonacci Function here.) It also costs: 1 click on control point tab. 1 click on create control points. 1 click once the controls points were added... => 3 clicks. 3- Alignements: We need to optimize the image shift... optimizing positions usually works, but it still needs: 1 click on Optimize tabs. 1 click on optimize (assuming we use the default one). 1 click to confirm. => 3 Clicks 4- Color optimization has to be done without vignetting optimization... The issue is that there is no option to perform it, it's not hard, it only requires to optimize the last paramter and not the others but... 1 click to click on exposure tab, 2 click on custom parameter, 1 click on 'photometric response' 1click on Optimize... 1click on 'I confirm it is right...' => 6 clicks consuming the user time. 5- Stiching the project into one file: needing to select the output, either fused or EXR output. => 3 clicks (which are fine.) So the question is: Could we get a button in first tab like the current 'align' but named 'align monopano HDR images' (or something similar) to perform all the previously named operations 1- (2-) 3- and 4-. so the user has to do 3-4 clicks and not 20 clicks here. I am assuming the point (2-) needs some coding, but the points 1- 3- and 4- are just automation I think. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
