On my map, the shooting, using a tripod with
a horizontal center column (it's a Benbo)
over the map, I inevitably get a shadow.

I hoped to work round this by taking a small
"replacement" set of images where the shadow fell.

Having shot the main set of images,
I moved the tripod to a new position.

I optimised these extra images in the PTO
file (using X,Y), and used masking to remove the
shadow from both sets.

The resulting sub-sets stitch like this:

Main set:

Replacement set.

Sadly, when I stitch the whole set I get this:

Is this "just a bug" or am I doing something wrong?

This is a long-standing enblend bug, the workaround is to shift the
pictures around slightly or change the order of the images (move them
up and down in the Photos tab).

Or sometimes also the other seam generator can help:
try adding --primary-seam-generator=nft to the enblend options.
