more photos?

[Michael Havens]

I did a pano of a room (not 360). I did the room in 3 or 4 shots. In the resulting pano (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B2xvsVTZy4y1R2ZSQUdmaFZsTGc) you could see the seams. If I were to do the pano with more photos than 4 would that negate the seam or at least make them less noticeable?

[Michael Havens]

I just did this pano again (I didn't know I had a photo that only encompases the middle) and the result was pretty. Anyways, I went to put it on google drive and it is complaining about too many pixels. I think it is because I tried to put another picture into it but I don't know. What should I do to put it onto google drive (or another hoster)?

I usually maintain 40% overlap between shots. This allows lots of room
both for control points and for enblend to work its magic. But
typically seams become visible either due to parallax, or insufficient
optimization / incorrect control points. Make sure your mean control
point distance is below one pixel, and if it's not, take a look at the
control points that are the farthest off.

What tab do you go to to learn how many pixels you are off? Is it in the 'Control Points' tab? Most of the control points have a distance greater than 6 but they don't look lined up correctly . This while the one with a distance of 17 is spot-on. So I suppose distance means something else.

To see the Control Points at their places, go to the Fast Preview Panorama windows and then to the Pre-Visualization tab (second tab). Click "show control points" to see them. You can also click the "Edit CP" button to see and add or remove CPs in rectangular areas.

Note that the names of windows and tabs I've used might be a little different as my Hugin is in Portuguese and I've just translated them here myself.

Before doing that I suggest that you first check if you have shot using a fixed axis considering the NPP (no parallax point). This is very much important and you can achieve this by using a panoramic tripod head or a philopod. If you are shooting hand held then you surely have pictures with parallax.

why would you want to remove control points?

Because of parallax errors, some control points could be wrong. Also,
some control points can't be a good reference (for example a control
point on a moving object)

There are a number of techniques described in the tutorials. But this
is a particularly easy panorama, and it shouldn't have happened. Have
you set the entrance pupil correctly?

I think it's because there are too many pixels. This means that the
resultant image is bigger than Google drive will accept. You can
downsize it externally, or you can set a smaller size in the Stitcher
tab.

It's not said that another hoster will have the same problem.
