I have had enough problems finding some of the controls that I have
given up and made a several scripts to edit the pto file outside of
hugin. In fairness I had that problem with the old hugin as well. This
new one has solved a few and hidden some others. The last few versions
have some pretty handy features.(auto stacking and the new CPfinder are
both really nice compared to the older versions.)
One of you guys posted and made it sound easy to move the code around in
hugin. Now you have me interested and I will take a look at it.
On a side note, someone mentioned here that they do not like having the
simple editor on a different screen than the advanced. I wonder how that
was any different than having the fast preview on a different window.
As for the answer, get a second monitor for your computer and open the
preview on the second monitor. I have started doing that the last few
months and I really love it. Now I can see what each change does in real
time vs checking on my work every once in a while and then finding I had
made a mistake a few minutes ago and need to redo a lot.
Just don't try it if you've got a panorama loaded with lots of images. I
have one comprised of several hundred images spanning about several
miles of Canadian coastline. Takes several minutes to update the preview!
Over all a good product and I am very thankful someone is keeping the
code moving(the new cpfinder and auto stacking both great new features)
I still think Hugin's one interface window should be the fast preview
window. Of course, when you first import images, they might not be
arrange sensibly, but if they were by default laid out in some order
that made sense (time stamp in the image? ascending/descending filename,
since many cameras name images IMG####1, IMG####2, etc?). Let user drag
them around to get them roughly in the desired order.
User can select multiple shots in the preview window, then right-click
to pick appropriate options from a popup menu.
I've been using Hugin since the interface change, and having two
different windows, one of which has three different modes, while the
other (Fast Preview) appears to be the only way to access the
novice-friendly Assistant function, is confusing and clumsy.
