| PTGui Pro for Mac OS X 13.0 Jan 31, 2025 |
Detail Viewer: New Patch Tool (see above) Detail Viewer: New View Panel which shows and edits the current viewing angles. Detail Viewer: New Snapshot tool. This saves the current view to an image. Rather than a screenshot, this actually renders the current view at full resolution. A DNG output format option was added. PTGui can now remove chromatic aberration and apply noise reduction to RAW and DNG source images. A new 'RAW Preprocess' tab has been added for this purpose. Certain cameras, for example those in DJI drones, produce DNG files with an embedded lens correction profile. PTGui now reads and applies this profile, giving a much improved image quality. Support for JPEG 2000 file format was added (both input and output). New command: Control points - Delete control points between non-adjacent images can. For example if we have 3 images in a row, we may already have control points between image 1 & 2 and between 2 & 3. Any control points between image 1 & 3 will be deleted. Especially in case of parallax, this will improve alignment. If Exposure Fusion is not enabled, the default HDR workflow has been changed to 'Merge to HDR first, then blend', because this results in much faster rendering of the panorama and requires less memory. Blend planes cannot be generated in this mode though. For exposure fusion panoramas, blend planes are still enabled by default because this gives better results. The default HDR workflow can be overridden in the Exposure/HDR tab. PTGui is better able to find control points for back-to-back fisheye images such as those produced by one shot 360 degree cameras. Back-to-back fisheye images overlap in just a narrow ring at the edge of the fisheye circle, and until now PTGui had difficulty finding control points. The default spacing between items in the user interface has been increased slightly, for better readability. Keyboard shortcuts have been added for navigating between the tabs in the main window (see menu View -> Go to Tab). PT |

Fixed: The 'Show Seams' mode of the panorama editor could show the wrong seams if multiband blending was used. Fixed: If 'Find Optimum Seams' was disabled, multiband and zero-overlap blending could result in different seam locations. Fixed: XMP data from a jpeg image would be ignored if the image did not also contain valid EXIF data. If the image contained only XMP metadata, the metadata would be ignored. Fixed: If a project was removed from the Batch Stitcher while another project was being stitched, the progress bar would disappear. Fixed: When using the Stereographic Down ('Little Planet') projection, changing the viewpoint or center in the Panorama Editor would move or rotate the panorama in the wrong direction. Added Support for the Insta360 X4. Added support for the QooCam 3 Ultra. Improved lens profile for Insta360 X3. |

Added support for DNG files with embedded JpegXL encoded data, as created by recent versions of Adobe LightRoom and Photoshop. Fixed: certain larger panoramas could have rendering artifacts (dark blobs or random colors). |

PTGui would fail to load certain DNG files, giving the error message 'Unknown error' Support added for Kandao QooCam 3. Fixed: PTGui when launched with the -stitchnogui flag could display an error message 'invalid lock file' Fixed: PTGui when launched with the -stitchnogui flag could (incorrectly) show a popup 'It appears that PTGui previously crashed while using OpenCL for GPU acceleration.' Fixed: if 'Optimize Brightness' was enabled in the automatic exposure and color adjustment settings (in the Exposure/HDR tab), the brightness optimization could behave erratic, resulting in very dark images. Fixed: subtle color banding artifacts could appear in the output if multiband blending was used and GPU acceleration enabled Fixed: cropping circle of the lens profile for the Samsung Gear 360 (2016 model) was slighly too large |

Added support for Olympus .ori raw files. In all tables it's now possible to un-select items by ctrl-clicking on a selected item (or cmd-click on Mac). Fixed: in certain spherical panoramas there would be a slight brightness difference between the left and right hand side of the panorama. In a panorama viewer this would appear as a vertical line. Fixed: possible crash when right clicking in the Image Parameters table. Fixed: Linux: On high DPI screens (having a scale factor of 200% or higher) images and thumbnails in the PTGui window were blurry. Fixed: Linux: PTGui Viewer: On high DPI screens the panorama would occupy only a fraction of the viewer window. Fixed: Linux: PTGui Viewer: in certain circumstances the viewer would not load a panorama file given on the command line. The window would appear to be stuck in the 'loading panorama' stage. Fixed: Export to PTGui 10 project would have the yaw, pitch, roll values of all images set to zero. |
