It still has difficulty displaying the old PTO, but I created a new one
using current Hugin, using the original images, and Lux has the same
problem with it. I checked in Hugin, the images from my friend's
camera-that-he's-so-proud-of come in with a 5.75deg field of view. I
think I'll stick with my Sony.
5.75 degrees fov sounds like a very long tele indeed.
Too long ago for me to remember. I think his present camera goes up to
600mm. It doesn't have interchangeable lens, just a single quite nice
lens with a wide zoom range.
Looks like the Lux GUI consists solely of a file selector?
What makes you think that? Maybe you haven't tried to access the menu?
Just move the mouse to the top margin of the window (or full screen).
The menu is usually hidden to show you nothing but your image - both
the old and new GUI only show when you move to near the top of the
screen.
Didn't know that at all. When moving around in an image, I'm usually too
busy chasing it to notice that anything popped up. Move the mouse fast
in a direction, the image zooms off and keeps zooming off after the
mouse stops. At least on my system. Even worse when I use my graphics
tablet!
Sorry, ages ago, I worked for a company that sold TrueVision Targa image
capture boards for IBM ATs. They came with graphics software known as
TIPS (Targa Image Processing System). It had what I consider just about
the perfect UI for image-focused work. No menu bar, no window, just your
image. Left mouse button was for clicking, dragging, selecting. Right
mouse button popped up the menu tree of options available (depending on
selection in effect, etc).
So I clicked right button expecting a menu to pop up. Don't know if it's
my bad, but it still seems a thought. I noticed that right click does
other things in Lux, so maybe ctrl-right-click to bring up the menu,
starting wherever the mouse pointer is?
I uploaded a debian package
<https://bitbucket.org/kfj/pv/downloads/lux-1.2.2-x86_64.deb> for
debian 12 stable. It might be usable for other debian-based distros.
Thanks, downloaded, tried it. It installed over the 1.1.6 that was there
before. Trying to run lux in a terminal gave me this:
lux: error while loading shared libraries: libexiv2.so.28: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
Bookworm comes with libexiv2-27. I have that installed. I guess the
libexiv2 version your package is looking for is -28?
