Sorry if I explained poorly, and pardon my delay. I believe I do mean an entire black rectangular (or, you know, warped rectangular) frame-- as if one of the 38 JPEGs I shot (to make one sphere) was replaced with an all-black JPEG just before Hugin made the final pano. In the final pano the black is shaded (I think blended is the term) into the surrounding panes/frames. And when I re-run the final pano-making I get different panes/frames turning back, which I know sounds weird.
I believe that I know what masks are and I feel sure I have never used one. Unless it's something that can happen automatically, without me knowing it, which I doubt. And I continue to use my old 2012 installation, and it keeps working just fine. Not sure what to tell you.
