masking is not only about seam placement. masking is first and foremost about artistic choice. The mistake you are making is to think of the scene as a static one, with no change during the time between frames. > I think "doing make right" should be a priority for the very next > release, let's not wait for GUI 2.

It will be one for the next release after the feature is ready. Things move forward in parallel and what is ready gets in to the next release. Patches are always welcome. > panosphere is really the "canonical panorama" and should be the frame > of reference for all editing Disagree strongly. Editing the zenith or nadir of a panosphere is a nightmare; For linear panoramas the sphere is too limiting as well. As an artist, I don't want to be framed in any reference other than 3D space. Everything else is an artificial limitation that will fall, sooner or later. To me, reducing the number of projections at the end of the input process would be a regression.
