Hugin 2019.0 beta 2 released

[T. Modes]

Hi all,

today we are releasing a beta 2 of Hugin 2019.0.

Source tarball can be downloaded
at sourceforge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hugin/files/hugin/hugin-2019.0/hugin-2019.0beta2.tar.bz/download
or at launchpad: https://launchpad.net/hugin/2019.0/2019.0beta2/+download/hugin-2019.0beta2.tar.bz

Verify its checksums:
md5: 0514d6a0eda7b8b182659407f1db58cf  hugin-2019.0beta2.tar.bz

sha1: 3e54b166a6cdfb45e667cc2c8e23795375e6df72  hugin-2019.0beta2.tar.bz

This is a source code release.
Users communities produce executables for their respective platforms. Please announce them here.

(The beta 2 correspond to changeset 75168618c648 in our repository, which is also tagged as 2019.0beta2).

Changes since 2019.0 beta 1

* Integrated raw import into add images dialog.
* Moved raw converter settings into preferences.
* Updated translations and help pages.
* New parameter for user defined assistant.
* Fixes running geocpset from inside Hugin.
* Unified handling of feathered alpha channel.

* Fixed installing of lcms2.dll in Windows installer.

Some changes resulted in changed string. This was needed to improve the behaviour of the new raw import feature.

So some translation files needs also an update.

Changes since 2018.0
* Added raw import: It converts the RAW images to TIFF using a raw converter.
  This can be done by dcraw (requires additional exiftool), RawTherapee or
  darktable. These programs needs to be installed externally.
* Fixes for align_image_stack with EXR images.
* Added option for range compression. Can be helpful for LDR panoramas to
  brighten the shadows before merging, because at this stage the blender has
  some more information which can be helpful.
* New hotkeys for mask editor (change zoom level with 0, 1 and 2).
* Expression parser (pto_var and "manipulate image variables" in GUI) can now read also
  all image variables.
* line_find: Ignore lines with low distance to each other to get better coverage.
* pano_modify: Added new switch --projection-parameter to set projection parameters.
* Store program settings according to XDG base dir specification (Linux only, needs to
  compile with wxWidgets 3.1.1 or later).

Upgrading from previous versions of Hugin should be seamless. If you do have problems with old settings, these can be reset in the Preferences window by clicking 'Load defaults'.

IMPORTANT
This is also a call for translators. Please update your translation files. Some new strings (since 2018.0, but also since 2019.0 beta 1) have been added. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Please test and report bug/issues to mailing list or bug tracker https://bugs.launchpad.net/hugin

Hello

Can we please stick with a versioning/file-name scheme?

Releases are named "2017.0" or "2018.0" in the announcements
but report themselves to be 2017.0.0 and 2018.0.0 respectively while
the filename has the third component or not (hugin-2018.0.0.tar.bz2
vs hugin-2017.0.tar.bz2). Beta/rc are using four different schemes:

hugin-2019.0beta2.tar.bz2
hugin-2019.0.beta1.tar.bz2
hugin-2016.2.0-rc2.tar.bz2
hugin-2014.0.0_rc2.tar.bz2

This is unnecessary painful if you want to use something like Debian's
uscan to automatically grab the latest release (and report its
existence).

I would suggest the following:
* Announce the complete version and use it as filename component
(Hugin 2019.0.0 released --> hugin-2018.0.0.0.tar.bz2)
* For Beta/rc versions, still use the complete version number in both
announcement and filename. In the filename separate the "beta1" from
the regular version, and use a character that cannot appear in a
regular release number for separation (not dot), e.g:
hugin-2019.0.0_beta2.tar.bz2 or hugin-2019.0.0+beta2.tar.bz2 or
hugin-2019.0.0~beta2.tar.bz2. I would prefer the ~. Choose one and
stick with it.

Thanks in advance, cu Andreas

What's required to compile this on 64-bit Debian Linux? The Hugin
version they seem to have listed now is 2018.0.0.5abfb4de7961. The
testing repository shows "2018.0.0+dfsg-3+b1 (testing)".

Thanks.

Hi Niklas,

thanks for the build! Can you please also post checksums for  the new beta?

Thanks,

Carl

ps.

Just as an info for those who wonder what to do with a checksum like the "md5" and "sha1" values below... those are used to verify that your download actually contains the file that was uploaded by the developer, i.e. without extra "features" added by someone who got access to the file server.

Example for Mac users: open the application Terminal and for a sha1 checksum type this line...

 

 openssl sha1

... then add a blank (space) and from the finder drag the downloaded (*.dmg) file into the terminal window (which adds the correct path to the file you want to verify). Now hit your Enter or Return key on the keyboard and compare the newly processed checksum with the one provided by the friendly developer.

Sorry, forgot that in the rush:

(or simply `shasum ...` )

Niklas, thanks again for putting this build together.

One problem I noticed is shown in this image. This is in the Control Points tab. When I move through the control points using the list at the bottom the window doesn’t update to remove the magnification of the previous point. If I wiggle the windows a little the image is rewritten with only the selected control point showing.

I don’t know if this is related to your build or an overall problem with Hugin.

Thanks for testing this Frederic.  Here are the conditions that I’ve noticed when the problem occurs ...

• Two different panos I’ve tried.  -  images: jpg, first set:1400x934 (2 images, 14 control points) and second set: 1000x667 (7 images, 12 to 17 control points per pair) … both show same issue.
• Zoom - "fit to window” and “50%" … doesn’t happen … at 50% all of the image shows in the window.
• Zoom - 100% (part of image shows in windows) … happens ... unless the viewable part of the images changes (i.e. the preview window is refreshed to display/center the control point)

Hello,

I checked this issue on Windows 10 and I can't reproduce it. It could be because it is masOS-specific, or because I wasn't quite in the same situation as dgjohnston (image size? number of images in the panorama? Number of control points?)

In Windows, when I select a different CP in the list, both windows scroll in order to center as much as possible the selected CPs. My images are bigger (1920 x 1080), scrolling happens as soon as a scroll bar appears. I checked 200%, 150%, 100%, 75% and 50%. At 200%, Hugin does not show a magnified square, maybe because the zoom level is too high. Of course, no scrolling with Fit to window, nor at 25%. Maybe the fact that Hugin does not scroll in MacOS is the key?
