I have never reported this »bug« because I didn't know where to search.
Just out of curiosity I would like to know if it would be possible to correct the output.
I am using 16/48 bit TIFF images for panoramas, either converted with Nikon NX-D or RPP (Raw Photo Processor).
When I generate control points or perform the final stitching, I get this message:

I am not a programmer, but I think it would be easy to fix the last 4 warning lines in the process window.
Anybody has any idea? Could it be a setting in the »Preferences«?
