Hi mac users,

I just released a new version of ImageFuser, version 0.7.4, my Gui for
enfuse and align_image_stack.

Changelog:
* Added Preferences pane. Defined a "preferred start directory (for source
images), a preferred "Save to" directory and a "debug" option. The last will
write log entries to the system log. You can retrieve that info with a
button.
* Checkbox settings of "Use align_image_stack", "Set image date to exif
date" (both main screen and batch screen) and "Show image after enfuse" are
remembered between program sessions. Note: this has no relation to
Preferences.
* (The final) Enfuse 4.0 is now used (new option syntax is used).
* Align_Image_stack is updated to the "December version" of the Hugin trunk.

*Note: This version is not tested on Tiger. End June my macbook crashed. I
had a dual-boot system to work in Leopard and Tiger. After 6 weeks without
mac I got myself another one. But I don't have Tiger anymore. Issues in the
past that sometimes occurred when built on Leopard was the fact that opening
images from a file dialog didn't work, but you could still drop files onto
the table. I'm looking for a solution for Tiger but it's not on my
priorities list.*


*ImageFuser released as Open Source*
ImageFuser started as a series of "AppleScript droplets" for enfuse and
align_image_stack. These droplets are still available via the hugin source
tree[0].
When I started ImageFuser in September 2008 I built it as a tool for myself
and I published the first (public) version as free, but closed source, in
October 2008. It has always been my intent to release it "at some time" as
Open Source, but only at the moment I was satisfied with the functionality
AND after I had done some serious code cleanup as I'm not really a
programmer and my source code might be quite messy. That "at some time" was
planned 6-8 months after first release but it turns out to be more than a
year.
The functionality suits my wishes for quite some time already but I never
did the code cleanup.
This 0.7.4 version still contains old unused code (for my own reference) and
also new code for the maybe upcoming 0.8 version (see screenshot at [1]). (I
don't know when this 0.8 version will be released as I have currently
decided to step back a little and do other things than sitting behind a mac
far too often.)
As I don't want to delay it any further, I now release 0.7.4 as Open Source.
(If experienced programmers start shooting at it, I will simply duck.)
In the coming days/weeks I will write a "howto" as the build environment and
setup currently suits me very well, but might be unclear or even obscure to
the outsider. It's also heavily based on the "External programs" build
structure from OSX Hugin for align_image_stack and enfuse.

This 0.8.0 version will offer you the possibility to use 1 or more images
from a bracketed set 0-5 times. To me this is a more practical approach then
disabling an image or load another image twice.
