Hello everyone

In PTGUi 13, there's a RAW preprocessing option. Unfortunately, when using the HDR function, you have to use another program to rotate the images so they're all oriented the same way (otherwise HDR isn't possible). The images you re-import are therefore in TIFF format, and you can no longer benefit from RAW preprocessing.
Why can't you rotate RAW files individually in the correct orientation within PTGUi? It's a huge waste of time and prevents you from accessing all the available options. Is there an option I'm missing?

Hi Rico,

Try this: Before loading the first image, switch to Advanced mode, go to
Project Settings and uncheck this box at the bottom:
"Physically rotate images with EXIF Orientation tag"

Then when you load the images, they will all be in landscape orientation.

Kind regards,

It works. Thank you very much for the answer. I didn't really know what that option did.
