Yes, plus Thomas is right and it makes sense to have that functionality on the Stitcher tab as well. In terms of incremental change, what bothers me now is the lack of canvas size control on the Fast Preview. James mentions that in most cases it is not needed because only the aspect-ratio is changing in the Fast Preview. There is at least one case when I have no other option but going to the Stitcher tab to change the aspect ratio: stereographic projection. Moreover, once we have "real" zoom functionality, a canvas change in the Fast Preview will be significant. We still need a way to communicate to the user visually that something is changing since no change will be visible at a given zoom level unless also the aspect ratio changes and the panorama is zoomed out enough to see a change in aspect ration. So for now I'll only add controls to edit the canvas size in the fast preview window. Yuv
