Hmm, haven't a real clue, but maybe this will help?

Are you asking about the process behind it? The above link lists
the steps of the process the Straighten button applies.
This link discusses the Straighten tool (at the bottom of the
page):
https://wiki.panotools.org/Hugin_move_drag_tab
"Straightening the panorama optimises the roll and pitch of the input images without changing their relative positions, levelling the panorama in the process. This normally produces good results; if you need more accurate positioning, try adding vertical control points in the Hugin Control Points tab and reoptimise."
Hope that helps!
