Re: [hugin-ptx] Re: Creating a panorama from 12 different nearby places

[Sam Rhoads]

I will assume that everyone can see what Claudio and I have said before so I’m going to trim off much of the older part of this email.  Is that what you all do? I haven’t spent any time on the PNG file yet, but will in a while.  But I thought I should mention what this panorama is for, and what I’m going to do next.  I’m going to use it In SkySafari.  If you haven’t played with a planetarium program like SkySafari, I recommend it.  They do a wonderful job of showing the nighttime sky.  In order to make the program look like what I see from the roof of my condo, I wanted to create this panorama.  The next step is to make the sky transparent.  Then the stars, planets, galaxies etc get projected onto the sky while the panorama represents the earth.  I guess that’s enough of that. I cannot thank Claudio enough for all the help he’s given me.   It’s almost finished now.  Thank you Claudio!  Remember to tell me when you come visit Hawai’i so I can buy you dinner. Carl, I hope this is useful. I’ll attach the finished panorama later so you all can see (and use?) it. Aloha, Sam.

Please tell me the steps I need to take after adding new control points.  I get confused by all the screens and what to do next. I clicked on the Optimizer tab and made sure that everything was selected, and then pressed the Optimize now! Button.  It seemed to do several things, took a few minutes,  showed me some numbers, and then finally asked Apply the changes? I pressed Yes.  Should I now press the Stitcher tab?  I did.  If I click Calculate field of view, the Horizontal is 360, the Vertical is 168.  I don’t know what those numbers represent. For canvas size if I click on Calculate optimal size, it shows width to be 21716 and height to be 10134.  Those numbers have to be way too big.  If I change width to 4098, when I clicked in the height box, it changed to 1912, which seems reasonable. I clicked Fit crop to images and get 0 for left, 4098 for right, 632 for top, and 1782 for bottom.  I don’t know if these are reasonable  I changed the Format to PNG.  Afraid to do anything else so clicked Stitch! Well, it looks much better.  The horizon is still broken.  I’m trying this on my iPad so I’ll send this email and then go to my desktop and send the png file.
