PanoTools NG: ImageFuser 0.6.0 released Harry van der Wolf 2009-Apr-04 09:53:14

Hi Mac users,

I just released a new version of ImageFuser being 0.6.0. It took quite some
time as I wanted to embed the Expert options into ImageFuser. That took me
on a long road of bugs in the OSX section of enfuse for this part.
Fortunately Christoph Spiel worked hard on these bugs and they are now
fixed.

In short:
- Expert Options now implemented (Can be used for e.g. depth of field a.k.a.
focus stacking [1][2][3][4]).
- Added support for 8bit png and 16bit png (next to jpeg and all tif
formats).
- Define output format in batch mode (was and still defaults to input format
= output format).
- bugfixes in both enfuse and ImageFuser.


As always:

*Complete changelog for 0.6.0:*
* Added the "Enfuse Expert options"  to ImageFuser (It took me weeks to
discover that enfuse contained bugs whereas I thought it was in my
programming).
* Christoph Spiel created a bugfix to enable the use of the "Enfuse Expert
Options" on OSX as the string conversion contained a bug.
* Christoph Spiel optimized the "channel widening" (going to and from 8bit
to 16bit or 32bit) in enfuse. His version can be downloaded via
https://code.launchpad.net/~cspiel/enblend/staging&lt;https://code.launc...,
which is a branch of the original enblend/enfuse trunk.
* enfuse upgraded to ~cspiel/enblend/staging branch 285.
* Bugfix: stupid little bug w.r.t. "What's new" popup.
* Bugfix for "Image Info": It now handles spaces in image names and image
paths correctly.
* Set CIECAM02 option default to on. When user images contain a non RGB
profile, the user definitely wants to use it. Also with ciecam02 switched
on, Enfuse detects if the image does or does not contain ECC profiles and
automatically switches to default RGB colorspace when relevant.
* Added support for 8bit and 16bit PNG, both input and output (and in batch)
* Output format can be selected from batch window. It (still) defaults to
"input format=output format", but you can also select jpg, 8bit tiff, 16bit
tiff, 32bit tiff, 8bit png and 16bit png as output format. This is than
valid for the total set.
* Added a "barberpole"  when Imagefuser (enfuse) recalculates the preview.
* Removed "DEFLATE" as TIFF compression option. OSX can't handle deflated
tiffs properly (that is: my Tiger and Leopard versions can't).
* Added FocalLengthIn35mmFormat and FocalLength to Exiftool save options for
enfused image. With these exif info added, Hugin (and others?) can determine
focallength and subsequently calculate HFOV from images.
* ExifTool upgraded to version 7.73.
* Added links in Help menu to online manual (forgot that one in 0.5.7) and
wiki.panotools.org documentation.
