Problem with Hugin Panorama

[scott092707]

Hugin usually does a great job, with minimal/no effort.

Once in a while, nothing will get it to do what I want...

The enclosed pics and .pto files are my effort to join two parts of a German bus station sign, the left side with the schedule and part of the right, the right with a map and some of the right end of the schedule.  I should have overlapped more, of course, but there SHOULD be enough to connect them. (There are 13 CPs, plus the  line, between them)

I even indicated several lines CPs in the base of the sign, to help line things up, but as the resultant pic shows, they don't line up, and are not a line.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug (and if so, how to describe?)

Hi Scott, firstly this is primarily a mailing list, so anything you attach gets sent to 2000 mailboxes.

Anyway it looks like your problem is that the two photos were not taken from the same position. Hugin assumes that you are stitching a panorama and maps the images as best as it can to a spherical scene.

However Hugin does have a 'mosaic' mode, that can account for camera movement where the scene is a flat surface like this.

You need to set the output projection to 'rectilinear' and optimise 'translation' parameters in the geometric optimiser.
