The Lightroom panorama function works pretty well, for most things. However, I have a couple cases of adjacent frames that each have a meteor trail in them. Since I can't tell LR which areas I specifically want to include/exclude in a panorama, is it possible to take my initial DNGs, and crop copies of them so that the area with the meteor trail is only in one file, forcing LR to include the meteor trail in the final panorama? I haven't yet tried this, I expect that it might work by using the export or print functionality, I.e. make a crop and export the cropped area as a DNG (or if need be a TIFF). I suspect that this is something trivial to do in Photoshop, but that's a can of worms I'd rather avoid at the moment.
I just wasted a bunch of time wrestling with this. If you export a cropped dng as a dng, you get the full dng, with the cropping info. If you export it as a tiff it won't work in a merge. If you convert that tiff to a dng, it still won't work in a merge.
