Hi
Luís Henrique,
It is possible in Hugin to merge (overlay, collage) various image formats (jpg, png, tif...), various sizes and even various origins (digital photo + scanned negative + screenshot + rendered graphics).
It seems almost impossible to hear, like adding centimeters to inches, euros to dollars, water to oil... and this is possible in Hugin.
Color spaces / profiles are just special effects, like adding milimeters to kilometers, seconds to days. These milimeters change statistics, but are invisible for someone who runs long distance (long time) projects.
I consider this as the main error in the program, that there is no
ignore button when opening (or
ignore color profiles option in settings).
Image editing software often apply color profiles without asking. Even the developers are not aware of this, when using ready libraries.
It refers mainly to mobile apps, but not only. I use Machinery HDR Editor for improving image quality. It applies an exotic "Black scaled" color profile, without asking.
Images processed (protected?) this way cannot be merged with other images in Hugin.
The original photo + processed photo cannot be opened by Hugin for selective blending of both.
More... even when two editors are using
different versions of the same color profile, Hugin GUI does not allow to open them.
More... even when the version number in one image is
2.1 and in another image is
2_1 they cannot be opened.
This is like adding lightyears to milimeters (converting thousands of images, video frames and screenshots may take longer than blending them).
And the second place is (the main error no 2):
After "Image was not found, please manually select the correct image" and pressing Cancel or [X]
the project is
closed automatically.
The missing image was deleted years ago, because of low quality.
I need to open the project with all remaining images.
After deleting the line in a text editor, that refers to the missing image, Hugin opens the project and
everything is working. :)
