Edit: *Straighten *adjusts the positions to "as taken with camera", not to the vertical lines *Optimize *after Straighten restores the geometry based on vertical lines - but not always it works. I think the optimizer at the first run does not know what to optimize. First it must be selected what - positions only, positions and view, barrel, etc. *Align *button builds the panorama again. I think it doesn't add new control points and lines, but it changes photometric parameters. In settings there are optional steps what should be done. There is no "adjust photometry" or "skip photometry adjustment". I think it should be included in Optional Steps. So, only *Reset photometric* parameters or* Reset user defined* (exposure and/or color) is usable.
