Permanently check "Lens" and "Crop" in template and filter out CP above 3 pixels

[Maurizio Camagna]

Is that possible? I've not yet figured out a way to do this!

Thanks

Hi Maurizio,

Do you mean the checkboxes under 'use individual parameters for images'
in the Lens Settings tab? Those are saved in the template. So you could
create a template (with at least the desired number of images) and set
those checkboxes.

Filtering out all CPs above a certain threshold is not supported. You
may have a valid reason, but nevertheless please see 5.5:

Thank you for your answer!

About CP above a threshold: you're probably right, but in my case (I've a perfectly calibrated rig) cutting off all points above 3 or 4 usually improves stitching even only slightly. Would be nice to have a slider to choose the cutoff.

Anyway thank you so much!

I'll add this to the wish list.

FYI, Align Images already performs the 'Delete Worst Control Points'
step. This does not delete control points above a fixed threshold, but
rather takes a look at each pair of images and delete any control points
with a distance higher than the average distance. It also takes care not
to remove all control points for the given image pair.

So PTGui already deletes outlying control points, in a somewhat smarter way.

Kind regards,

Thank you for this clarification. I always wondered how that was implemented. Super!
