Harry,

There remains something fundamentally wrong with how new stitch processes are added to PTBatcherGui in OS X. One has to leave completed stitch processes in the batcher's queue in order to see the symptoms. I have never seen these problems when using the Windows version. Do I need to open a specific bug entry for this or is there one already? There may be much to describe the symptoms and the conditions needed to see them. Vary the names and sizes of added stitch processes for the same project to observe the symptoms.

Hi OSX users,

I made a 2011.2.0-RC3 build.

There were still issues with the calling of PTBatcherGui for which I made a rough work-around in the previous RC and beta builds. Chris Reiman released a patch on 18th June which uses a very elegant way to call an external bundle. Unfortunately it only can add a project to the queue, like done from the Assistant ("Send to assistant queue"). That made me decide not to implement it as it would not help us with the "start immediate" stitching. However, the patch helped me to get in the right direction and I worked out an option based on Charlie's patch. PTBatcherGui should now always be called correctly on Tiger, Leopard and Snow Leopard. Lion is still open to me.


So what's changed:
- Call to PTBatcherGui to add project to queue (Charlie Reiman patch).
- Call to PTBatcherGui to start stitching immediately from Assistant pane or Stitch pane. (expanded version of Charlie Reiman patch). - Changed incorrect name of lens_calibrate_gui.app to correct name calibrate_lens_gui.app (Note: You might need to remove the incorrectly named "old" lens_calibrate_gui.app by hand from the install folder.)

Further info:
- Python functionality is still not in the bundle and will not be either in the final 2011.2. - As I'm now using an installer it's also easy to pack the command line tools as symlinks inside a HuginTools folder inside the Hugin install folder. Read the Readme in the Hugin Tools folder in the dmg if you want to work/experiment with these tools.


Please test!

Special "call" to Lion users: please report your user experience, not only the negative ones but also positive ones. If you find real bugs please report them in the Launchpad bug tracker [0].
