Harry and the Mac Users,
I think I have had a breakthrough!
First I had another setback.
As described above I got the images aligned. Then ran into another
problem! Having got past the Control Point problem I opened the
Preview window ...
and the preview image was all washed out when the Photometric option
was switched on.
This was much like the problem described a few months ago here:
http://groups.google.com/group/hugin-ptx/browse_thread/thread/8bb9bdbd7eded75d/159a4a2bc1842a84#159a4a2bc1842a84
However this time throwing away the old Preference files did not
help.
(By the way - another tip for Mac users ... do bear in mind, when
removing old Preferences, that there is more than one file in "Library/
Preferences" for Hugin - not just "Hugin Preferences" but also a
group of files whose names begin "net.sourceforge.hugin... )
So I looked for other sources of the problem ... after much trial and
error ... I discovered that if, when loading images, I avoided my
previously stored lens .ini file and simply entered the focal length
etc by hand then the image appeared normally in the preview window no
matter whether the "Photometrics" option was on or off.
SO then I went back and tried cpfind ... and it WORKS!!!!
