Hello Allard

For me there is some confusion about the control point pickers.
You mention that all control point pickers are based on the SIFT
algorithm. (Autopano-sift-C, Panomatic and Autopano)
But  when selecting autopano(A. Jenny) in the preference screen it
can't find autopano.exe in the binaries.
Checking the binaries I find an autopano.exe, but that is the
autopano.exe from Autopano-sift of S. Nowozin(generatekey.exe and
autopano.exe)
The autopano from A. Jenny is not in the installer, but only the
autopano-SIFT   of S. Nowozin or derivate of it.
When you download and install Autopano of A. Jenny then you can use it
when giving the path in the preference screen.

Kind regards,
Henk Tijdink
