The 4.4 is the new version of Autopano Pro/Giga. We worked on some nice features especially macOS Sierra 10.12 support and better UX/UI for the control point editor. It comes with a lot of bug fixes. The lens and camera database has also been updated. See list below.
macOS Sierra 10.12 support
We worked to make Autopano Pro/Giga compatible with macOS Sierra 10.12. There were issues with the settings and the panorama detection. These have been fixed.Control point editor - UX/UI improvements
You can now rotate your images by 90° increments, clockwise or counter-clockwise, direcly into the control point editor. This can be really helpful for tough stitching especially when the camera postions are not the same from one image to another. See documentation.Bug fixes and features since 4.2.3.400:
- KOI-330 : Wrong panorama detection according to groups or stacks creation
- KOI-312 : Float settings not saved properly on MacOS sierra
- KOI-310 : As a user, to be more effective, I want to be able to rotate preview in CP editor

Main changes
This is the final release of the new Autopano engine v4.2.
New color correction engine
With the previous v4.0, in some cases where the exposures were really different, our way to calculate that was not optimal. We worked on that some more to give you the best color correction engine.
- Better support of large differences in exposure: This is the real new change. We can better evaluate which part gets you a better balance in the resulting panorama.
- Exposure slider. As we can now evaluate better the global panorama exposure, it is also possible to choose the exposure you want. This new slider highlights the exposures of all individuals images and allows you to choose the global exposure tone.
- White Balance Stability. Calibrating tone was also quite delicate. Now it is working better and we can match really subtle tones.
Fixes since 4.0.2:
- 0004636: [Neurone ( optimisation )] Better color correction with high exposures differences
- 0004812: [Unclassified] new color correction is not well saved and reload
- 0000000: [Unclassified] less update on exposure scaler changes.
- 0004860: [GPU] line glitch on some GPU device
- 0005011: [UI behavior] improve pano editor focus policy

Changelog
Main changes
This version is the final version of the next generation of Autopano engine, the version 4. With this version, we tried to address issues that people are still having when stitching panoramas.
New color correction engine
This is the first big change under the hood. Visually, you won't see many changes, everything is behind.
What is the color correction engine?
First, It is not only about color, but also about exposure, hdr calibration, etc. This algorithm is the way we calculate relative exposure between images, color cast, etc. The real name is radiometric calibration. For the lenses, we calculate lens distortion parameters. Here, for the color, we calculate color parameters for images and lenses, depending on exposure, aperture, iso.
So, what's new in the new color engine ?
- Vignetting correction: In big panoramas, especially with blue skies, it appeared that vignetting was an effect that prevented us from getting a perfectly stitched panorama without any banding in the sky. Now, we can measure that effect and remove it.
- Gradient correction: This is a new concept that we discovered when stitching blue skies. It appears that some lenses have some coating that have an effect on the color in the sky. It also happens when you put some IR filter on the lens. It modifies the way the colors are transmitted through the lens and creates a strange gradient on the images. That effect is different from vignetting and it seems that we are the first in the world to have found this new type of color calibration effect. We found no literature about it yet.
- Default anchor: In the previous engine, the software decided the default anchor image for you, the one that would be used as color reference for all others. It worked well, but we could do better. Now, by default, there won't be any color reference image, all images will be optimized. The result on the panorama is that the global panorama is closer to all images, instead of close to the reference image.
- Color correction on big panorama: As the optimization system has been changed, now it is possible to easily have global optimization done on big panoramas. Even if you decide to have just one reference anchor in a big panorama, it will work, as the color/exposure propagates its values now to all the panorama.
- WIP UI: The UI has been improved to support the new engine. Everything is now happening on the right click on an image. You can decide from there what you want to correct for that image. You can also globally change the default settings of color correction in the column menu while you are in the color correction mode. There is room for improvement here and we are waiting for feedback on the UI for color correction.
Fast editor
When we looked at feature requests from users, we found out that it was more important for you to be able to work fast in the editor than to render fast. Rendering can be run during night, but if you need to edit a panorama, you need to be behind the screen. So we decided to concentrate on how we could accelerate the editor. The fast editor is the result of that speed up. Again, that's not really a visual feature, as everything again is behind the scene. You will just see a new flag in general setting that says, fast editor, enabled or not. By default, it is on, of course.
So, how does the fast editor work?
- Zooming / panning: When panning, zooming in, zooming out, you should feel that everything is super fast now. We use clever gpu techniques to be able to get you instantaneous feedback in the editor. In Autopano 4, we opened the Paris-26-gigapixels panorama on a laptop and were able to work on it, having no problem looking at every zone of the panorama, even at 100%. It is really, really fast.
- Small visual artifacts: To be able to accelerate everything, some compromises had to be made, which has resulted in possible temporary visual artifacts. These artifacts don't stay on screen very long, they are there during only a few seconds until the calculations are done. It doesn't prevent the use of the tool, makes it really fast, but visually, it might be distracting. Tell us what you think, if you are ok with these glitches or not.
4K / High DPI / Retina display support
We've always cared about the visual comfort when using our software, and the experience should be enjoyable during use. But with the latest computers / laptops, everything is quickly evolving to use high resolutions on screen and high DPI. Our software should adapt to that evolution.
Having an interface that adapts itself to high DPI / Retina display depends on the way the software is built. We use Qt for almost all our software. Qt should then be providing us with the solution for High DPI / Retina Display. It happens that Qt has provided this only really recently, with Qt 5.4. Our software relied on Qt 4.8 ( quite old ). It wasn't possible to make the switch before, as it does impact a lot of the codebase. We could only plan the switchover for a major update, as it also impacted the minimal OS configuration needed for the software. The result is that we now have a better interface, with Retina icons / high DPI screen support even for 4K screens. The switch also accelerates every part of the software related to displaying something on the screen. With this upgrade of Qt, we are also ready for Windows 10 and Mac Yosemite.
Anti-ghost visual feedback ( APG only )
In the Autopano engine, we are still the only stitcher that has an automatic anti-ghost algorithm that works for small projects, up to gigapixels. It does really save a lot of time for fixing ghost / parallax in hand held panorama, and it does so automatically. We decided to work on this algorithm to make it even more efficient and usable.
What we did:
- Seams visual feedback: you can actually see where the anti-ghost algorithm decided to put the seams between images. This visualization of the seams is a great improvement and really helps understand overlapping / moving objects, etc. It is also compatible with our masking markers ( green / red ). Working in the mask editor is improved now.
- Stability of anti-ghost decisions: in previous versions, it could happen that the decision taken by the antighost algorithm in the editor, was not the same as the one taken during the rendering. This was not acceptable anymore if you have a visual feedback on seams. The problem with having the same decision is that a render is needed for the whole panorama before we can display anything on the screen ( even if the editor is opened on just a small part of the panorama. The whole panorama influences the antighost, not just the displayed zone ). So, even if it means an initial, global slow down of the preview at first, we decided to do a quick render of the global panorama when opening the mask editor so we can guarantee to display the real seam locations. You can also notice that when zooming into the realtime preview, the seams will refine themselves depending on the zoom factor, but they won't change location anymore.
With these 2 improvements to the anti-ghost system, managing ghosts is really better. And we think that it is way faster than painting into input images. We were asked several times to add that feature. But with these improvements, we are waiting for feedback to see, if it is still considered needed or not.
Miscellaneous
- Small screens support
On some small displays, it was not really simple to use our editor because the tools were really big. We added sliders on several zones so that it is now easier to use on laptops for example.- Qt and compilers updates
To be really up to date in the development tools, we used here the latest version of both Qt and Intel compilers. You should notice a small improvement in terms of performance.- PSD/PSB compression
You can now activate PSD/PSB compression in RLE mode. It reduces the file size, but it can in some cases increase the rendering time. One note: if you really want to get the smallest file size and if you don't have embedded layers ( just a plain panorama in PSD/PSB ), uncheck the embedded checkbox and use RLE compression mode. This is the case where the file size will be the smallest. Still, if you open a PSD/PSB through Photoshop and save it again, depending on the case (with/without layers, compatibility mode or not), the file size can still be reduced.- A clearer obsolete key message
Warning: for the betas, you are supposed to use a v3 key to register the beta software. Once we'll be in Release Candidate / Final, the software will only be registered with v4 keys.
The message now states which version of the key you need to register the software with, which is clearer than the previous 'obsolete key' message. You know what to use directly in the software.- Remove support of KRO file in input
It happens that some users did try to use KRO files in input. The issue is that we don't support gigapixels in input, in any format. We removed that format in input to prevent injecting gigapixels.- Gigapan import improvement: In some cases, with a lot of unlinked images, the Gigapan import could fail. We a lot of did work on this algorithm to make it more robust. With current Gigapan tests cases, the system is much more robust now, even in cases where you don't have the exif data anymore.
- Area selection tool: For editing big panoramas, you can use the ctrl/cmd key while dragging. It will create a rectangular selection zone. Any image with it's center inside this rectangle will be selected. This is a nice tool to move several images at the same time, for sky patching on gigapixels for example.
- Zenith and nadir blending: In some rare cases, you could notice strange behavior at the zenith or nadir where a spot is visible, as if the blending didn't work well on that zone. We found the solution for that and made it compatible with the automatic anti-ghost. You won't have any blending issues at the zenith anymore.
- Group management: When sorting images, it appeared that some of the functions that were on the right click on group were not that easy to use. We've improved them. Now, if you split a group at a given selected image, both groups stay close. Previously, the new group was created at the end of the group list. You have new function 'keep selected', just select some images in a group, use that, and it will remove all other images.
- Memory optimization: We measured memory usage when working on big projects. There was space for improvement in that area and now it should be possible to do 10,000 images panorama on much smaller computers than before. This is a good news for record breakers ( go out and shoot! ), but also for small configurations who will be able to stitch bigger projects.

Changelog
Main changes
This new stable release is about Autopano Engine v3.6. It includes some new features and fixes.
Compared to Autopano Engine v3.5, here are the new features:
NCTech iStar plugin
We introduced a new plugin in Autopano Giga to be able to quickly stitch images produced by the NCTech iStar camera. This high end camera is mainly used for photogrametry and forensic. With this plugin, you can have a fully automatic workflow with this camera. It supports batch stitching, as well as bracketing.
You first need to develop iStar Raw format with software provided with the camera and then, you can use this plugin to get a nearly perfect stitch in any case.
Miscellanous improvements
- Maximum size: With video stitching, it can happen that the maximum size of panorama is nearly 4K, but not really 4K just because of some pixels. Many users expressed the need to be able to render a bit over the maximum size allowed by the input source files. We unlocked that limit to be able to do so.
- OpenEXR: For VFX industry, it is really important to have a real 32bits workflow. We had that already but not for the EXR format which was 16bits float (commonly named half-float) and not 32bits float. We rewrote the EXR file format support to allow true 32bits export. We used that revamp to add support of the latest compression algorithms allowed by EXR. They can all be used now in the software.

The most noticeable fixes are the following:
- Linux DEB broken. Since some release already, the produced DEB formats were broken. It is now back and works fine.
- Windows XP support. Even if Microsoft dropped support for windows XP, we didn't, but we need to adapt a little the compilation so it still works under this OS. We had an issue with XP, which is support inside it of the latest CPU. It doesn't work well. The decision made is to have a windows 32bits compiled with less optimization than for the 64bits compilation. You can use the 32bits version on XP but not anymore 64bits with some CPUs. It should solve some user cases, where they could not launch the software under that old OS.
- Linux 32bits support has been dropped. Again, as we need to concentrate on really up to date system and according to the stats we have, it seems that spending time on linux 32bits is not needed. We are now concentrating on 64bits linux only.
Fixes since 3.5.0:
- 0003344: [Crash Dump] lock on empty kic on remap
- 0003408: [Shell Integration] Bridge plugin doesn't find the application
- 0003416: [Cortex ( rendu )] fisheye circle not well cropped in rendering

Changelog
Main changes
This final release of the new Autopano Pro / Giga engine in version 3.5 is a major upgrade of internal parts in autopano stitching engine. It raises the quality of stitching in several areas and you should see the difference.
New Detection and validation engine
To be able to get a perfect stitch, we need to detect and validate controls points on all images you put in the software. This analysis has to be done cleverly and fast as you don't want to wait too much. So we worked a lot on detection algorithms.
- Automatic detection settings. To raise the quality, we decided to make some decision automatic rather than manual as before. For example, on quality detection. In v3.0, the quality of detection was a user decision, but now, it is automatic ( or still manual if you decide it ). The automatic mode is better as according to the number of images, focal, exif or not, we can decide for you the right setting for the best result. You should not have to care about these settings anymore. If you still want to manipulate them, just go ahead, there are still there, but the default mode is now automatic.
- Ransac improvements. This algorithm validates control points on images. It has been improved with new models so that the control points produced are now more widely spread over the overlapping zone. The whole system has also been improved to get more and better control points.
- Multiple lens type stitching. We improved the way to detect and validate control points in several cases. And now, it even works when mixing several lens types ( fisheye with rectilinear ). This is a new an unique feature that has never been seen before.
New Optimizer Engine - Easy and important topics
This might be the most visible change in this autopano release. You'll see several new tabs when entering the control point editor. At the same time, with the improvements made, you'll probably need to go in the control points editor less than before.
What has been done in the optimizer in Autopano Engine v3.5?
- Lines should be aligned. The whole system has been rebuild to be faster while being more accurate. The main goal was to get you the perfect stitch automatically. It forced us to study several topics like optimizer convergence, lens distortion estimation, focal estimation, sensor and lens alignment, viewpoint correction, etc. The whole optimizer has been fine-tunned to get you that goal in most cases. You should see that with your own images if you render them at 100%. If not perfectly aligned, then there is a reason behind. We found out that several cases we had that we believe were perfectly shoot were not. This new version highlights nicely any small parallax issue in the editor. But thanks to anti-ghost rendering engine, you cannot see them in the produced panorama.
- RMS values. This value is the standard way to measure if a panorama is well stitched or not. Or you'll probably see that values of RMS in version 3.5 haven't really changed whereas the quality has increased a lot ( if you compare visually both 100% rendering from 3.0 and 3.5 ). This is normal as we changed the way RMS is measured. So RMS=4.0 in version 3.5 is better than in version 3.0. Nevertheless, there are quite comparable, but if you found higher RMS panoramas now, don't assume the panorama is worth. Most of the time it is better.
- Control point location. As this version also have a new detection engine, the optimizer has been improved so there are more control point at the end and on the whole overlapping zone. It is important to keep that aspect of full coverage of the overlapping zone. It is only this way that you get the best stitch. If you compare control point location between 3.0 and 3.5, you'll see that in the overlapping zones, the area covered by all control points is far larger in 3.5.
- Viewpoint correction. This feature has always been a good feature in Autopano Giga. But we lacked the way to enable it only on some images and not on all of them. This has been done and it is easily accessible through a right click on an image, enable viewpoint correction on that image. This is nice to patch quickly the nadir using oblique shooting.
- 1000mm focal length tip. You have a flat scanner and a big document. Several scans that you need to stitch together. In the 3.0 version, the tip was to set focal length to a high value (1000mm). It is not needed anymore. This case works automatically now.
- Parallax error handling. As everything has evolved in the engine, the response of autopano v3.5 in presence of big parallax error cases is different. It tends now to behave more robustly according to common sense: align objects that are far nicely but because of that, it raises parallax errors in near objects. With previous version, it was more balanced, some parallax issues far away and some parallax issues on close objects. We don't know if it is better or not yet. Feedback is welcomed on that aspect.
Papywizard / VRDrive2 new engine
With the old XML import for Papywizard, we could still have some issues coming from differents causes, but also because we introduced the new optimizer in v3.5 series. But now, we have:
- Depending on the robotized head you were using, we found out that the XML recorded and the ground trust was a bit different for the pitch value. If we respect the pitch value of orphan images, it is not enough to have a regular grid. We found a new algorithm to have a perfect grid while trying to respect the XML value. The results are better this way and globally, the orphan images management is just really better.
- Gigapixels are often done using robotized heads. The issue with such giant images is the fact that you have a lot of blue images and sometimes, our detector is too good and finds between these images some links which happen to be dust on the lens ( Yes, we can detect that :) ). When using papywizard import, we are now more resilient to dust and it should not happen anymore.
- Both Papywizard and VRDrive2 benefit from the new advances in the import wizard. Of course, the new optimizer also helps a lot to get better results as the optic parameters are calculated better too.
Miscellaneous
There are also some other new features in this release. Let me highlights some of them:
- ISO cutting mode. In autopano 3.0, you have the anti-ghost algorithm that finds for you the right zones where to cut between images. This algorithm works by analysing the content so that you don't have any ghost in produced panorama. This mode is still here and it has been renamed "smart". With the new engine, you also have a second cutting mode called ISO. This mode doesn't analyses content anymore. The cutting zone is fully determined by 2 aspects : It tries to keep pixels which are close to centre of images. It tries to keep pixel around green pins and remove pixels around red pins. If you compare that mode with a real masking solution, it is really the same but automatic according to pins. If you have banding issue in the sky with the smart mode, try this one, it will be better while keeping a sharp output.
Note: this mode is really efficient when you need to stitch video and that was the main goal for developing it. Nevertheless, it appears to be really nice on image also and not only for video.- GPano XMP support. Yes, we support these metadata's now in the generated panorama as soon as you have an image format that supports XMP ( jpeg or tiff currently). We support orientation and field of view for full or partial panoramas.
- Fisheye projection mode. A new projection is available in the projection modes. It is a pure fisheye projection on which you can adjust the field of view. It is nice to have to generate fisheye image that can be stitched again.
- .pano format in full XML. The project file has evolved a lot during the engine revamp and we now have a full XML file format which is more easy to manage over version release. So you won't be able to reopen 3.5 .pano file with older version. If you need to do that, we added a 'save as old .pano' export so you can convert this .pano XML format to an old one. Of course, some aspects cannot be transfered like many parts in the optimizer settings which are totally new.
Roadmap
Beside some translations that are missing, the 3.5 branch of autopano engine is now done and we are working on the version 3.6 that will bring a new plugin.

Main changes
Today, we are launching a new release fixing the latest issues reported by our users. It also contains some improvements.
Fixes comments
- In version 3.0.7, we changed the way GPU was managed in Autopano so you had a more responsive interface even with low memory GPU graphics cards. This change has affected several parts of the code ; this version fixes some small broken parts.
- A fix was applied in the VRDrive2 import plugin that prevented the use of fisheye lenses with this panoramic head.
- Lightroom 5.0 support has been added in the installer.
- A user reported that Autopano didn't conserve the right ratio in the mercator projection compared to cylindrical or spherical. He was right: the projection was good but not the aspect ratio ( vertical over horizontal ).
- Translation packages have been updated, especially the Polish language that didn't display before this release.
Roadmap
We are actively working on both pieces of software: Autopano Pro/Giga as well as Autopano Video.
In a few weeks, we will release the first beta of version 3.1 of Autopano Engine with new features and improvements. Stay tuned, it will not take long to get it.

Main changes
Today, we are launching a new fix release that mainly improves the GPU (graphics card) usage.
GPU
We moved the GPU texture option to prevent confusion. GPU (and texture quality) is used for the panorama preview but does not change the final rendering quality. We added a compression parameter: it is disabled by default because it creates visual artifacts in the preview (and only in the preview) but it can be useful for users that don't have enough GPU memory. Memory usage can be divided per 2, but CPU is used to compress textures. We advise you not to activate this if your panorama editor already runs well with the GPU. We also enhanced the GPU processing to consume less memory and to better the reactivity.Plugin support

Main changes
Today, we are launching a new fix release for the latest issues reported by our users. It also contains some improvements.
GPU texture size
We added a new option in the general settings to be able to use a reduced texture size while editing a panorama. It betters the experience while using the GPU in the case it hasn't much RAM. Nowadays, cameras produce huge pictures and the GPUs don't always accept the full size because it requests a lot of GPU RAM. This option is here to help you work with GPU on smaller configurations.
Helpers in the mask tool
The mask tool is a great tool but some helpers were needed to be able to improve the usability. So we added several new menus to be able to erase quickly the quick mark, some contextual menu too, etc.
Fixes in several software parts
- With some large renderings ( gigapixels ) on smaller configurations, a crash during the rendering stage could occur. This issue has been solved with the help of a user who tested our fix before integrating it to this build. Thanks to him.
- In the VRDrive2 import plugin, the focal length calculation and distortion were not handled well. This has been fixed.
- Some fixes in the Clauss import plugin.
- Added Portuguese translation that was missing in the previous 3.0.5 version.
- Several crash dumps have been analyzed and ended in fixes in different software parts.
Trial mode changes
We released Autopano Video some time ago and it appears that to be able to try it well, Autopano Pro or Giga were needed to level the horizon. But Autopano Pro / Giga in trial mode don't allow to save the project file (.pano) so you couldn't level the horizon of a video if you just used Autopano Pro/Giga and Autopano Video both in trial mode.
We decided to change that so you can save the project file even in trial mode. This saving is limited in trial mode but the project file (.pano) can be read back in Autopano Video, so that you can produce a leveled but watermarked video by using both software applications in trial mode.
In trial mode, we also changed the way the watermarking is done, by adding the sign everywhere in the final rendering. It doesn't change anything as you can still use the software with full features in trial mode.
Roadmap
With the knowledge we now have after developing Autopano Video, we can use the GPU in a better way in Autopano Pro/Giga too.
So we are pretty confident to release a 3.0.7 version quite soon with an updated GPU engine that will work really faster than in previous versions.
In 3.0.7, we'll also cope with external software support, like Bridge CC support.

Fixes in 3.0 stable channel
We are doing a lot of work to get solve most of the crashes reported. Nevertheless, most of them are related to graphics drivers, so please don't forget to be up to date on this part of the computer. Also, if you create big panoramas or using big images, you should definitively switch to 64bits of our products, it is free and solves some memory issues.
Some Windows users have crashes when using system file browser. These crashes can happen when you just try to open a folder to select some images. If you do have crashes in these part, you are having some issues with either network drives, shortcut on this folder, other software acceeding to the folder like antivirus, etc. To prevent these crashes, we added a new option in general settings to tell autopano not to use the native file browser, but using our own file browser that doesn't suffer from these issues. It should prevent any crash coming from strange cohabitation with external software accessing folder.

Last RAW formats have been integrated like the Nikon D600, the Canon 6D, etc.

Since the stable release, we getting some new reports about some issue found in some cases. We continue to stabilize everything in these rare cases and we are pretty confident about having now a really stable version. Among the fixes, some of them needs some explaination:
- It seems that the way we balanced the memory reserved between rendering and input image caching was not optimal in some configuration. We added more memory reserved for pictures displaying and reduced a little for rendering.
- Local optimization was broken since early in beta stable. It didn't create any problem as general optimization was still working, but we get it back. You should see nice speed up in optimization stage.
- This version has also some updated translation and one new translation: Polish.

Most recurring reports have been fixed. Some crashes are not easy to prevent and depend on the computer:
- Try to update you graphics drivers. Many reports are still showing crashs in graphics drivers and not in autopano.
- Always use the 64bit version of autopano ( when the OS allow it ) for using big pictures or for rendering large panoramas.
The troubleshooting page for autopano support has been updated with all the solutions found. Have a look there it you have still recurring crashes with the software : http://www.autopano.net/wiki-en/action/view/Autopano_Solutions
We will continue to work on this stable channel. Nevertheless, the work on next engine has already been started. Autopano Engine v3.1 is all about color correction engine improvement.

Fixes in 3.0 stable channel
With the release of a new stable software, there is always a lot of bug reported in early time as many people are now trying the software on several computer / platform. So, it is normal that we got report, but as the beta / RC stage was nicely done, there are no critical bug, only some crash that can only be reproduced in some circomptances.
- The crash report system does work amazingly well and it helps us to reproduce and understand cases that we weren't able to reproduce here before. At the time of this release, most reported crash were fixed. Note: in the crash report system, we added an optional email field that you can fill or not ( it is your choise ). For us, it could be of some help, if we need to get back to you to understand the report or get some more details. Some cases are still in hold because, we miss some details of what happen just before crashing ( order of operations ). This new email field is for that.
- We had some other bug report through email or forum. Quite all have been done ( see the list below ).
- This version has also some updated translation and new translation: Chinese, Japanese, Norwegian, Russian.
We will continue to work on this stable channel. Nevertheless, the work on next engine has already been started. Autopano Engine v3.1 is all about color correction engine improvement.

Version 3.0 integrates impressive new features that will definitely make you adopt Autopano Pro or Autopano Giga:
- Choose between 9 projection modes the one that best suits your image, including Little-Planet, Panini, Hammer, Mirror Ball, Orthographic and more.
- Edit your panoramas with an exceptional efficiency: the panorama editor is now real-time and pixel accurate. The ergonomics have been totally revamped, so that all tools take advantage of the real-time editor.
- Use the Preview mode to get an instant visualization of your final panorama, before even rendering it. You can keep this mode on when you use all the tools of the panorama editor.
- Manually remove the ghosts in the overlapping areas in an instant thanks to the Mask tool. Also very useful to remove the tripod, or get rid of anything in your panorama (Autopano Giga only).
Other great enhancements have also been made:
- An increased general speed in all parts of the application.
- The support of RAW files of the latest cameras on the market.
- The layer editor (in the panorama editor) has new features that ease the manipulation of images within the layers, including the selection of multiple images.
- Seitz Roundshot VR Drive II motorized head is now fully supported thanks to a dedicated module, besides the GigaPan, Papywizard and Clauss Rodeon modules (read the Seitz-Kolor partnership announcement) (Autopano Giga only).
- The import plugins for Bridge and Lightroom are now compatible with the latest CS6 version (Autopano Giga only).
- A better Linux support: Kolor is engaged in providing Linux-compatible versions of its software applications and believes all major photo applications should have a Linux version.

Stable release
After several release candidates that solves some minor issues, we are now back again in a stable state.
Improved Blending Engine: The blending engine has been improved in several way : blend over 360° edges, color uniformisation, support of HDR as input image. We considere this part as really stable and accurate.
Focal Integration in Papywizard: Focal length is a critical value for several algorithms in autopano. Or with papywizard plugin, we can have several sources for this value and sometimes, it seems all sources are not given the same focal value. So we introduced some check and editable focal length to correct such cases.
New GPU compatibility mode: With old graphics card, the way we should use texture can vary and could be different that with modern graphics card. So we introduced this mode that should be enabled only if you have trouble with the GPU mode.
Crash Analysis System: Of course, a crash should not happen! Nevetheless, if you have a crash on windows, now, we have a workflow to analyse it with a clever crash dump.
Fixes :
- 0001007: [Shell Integration] Browse image crash - resolved.
- 0001090: [Cortex ( rendu )] Crash when saving .hdr files - resolved.
- 0001093: [UI behavior] Windows 7, 64bits, system dialog box crash - resolved.

Main changes
360° Blending
- It is always complicated to be able to stitch perfectly over the 360° edges. We had an algorithm that works well in several cases but not all of them. So we decided to change totally on the internal solution to 360° blending.
Papywizard and Gigapan improvement
- With the availability of XML generation in new head, the papywizard plugin needed some improvement.
Fixes :
- 0001096: [Import plugins] VR Drive 2 XML support - resolved.

Changelog
Main changes
This is a new stable version with major improvements
Quality and speed improvements
- New generation of Neurone ( optimizer engine ) with a lot of improvement or new features :
- Speed of fisheye stitching : at least 300% speedup, but it can be 10x too on big project
- Improvement in quality by adding support for 2nd and 3rd order distortion, as well as sensor offset
- Better blending engine
- This raise really the results of exposure fusion rendering
- Blue skies are better blended together
- Focal length priority in the rendering engine
- You can now choose between anti-ghost or focal priority
- Improved Gigapan and Papywizard plugins
- In many cases, it gives better results for images without any control points
Improved UI
- Better Move mode that allows you to change global layout of the panoram. Manual adjustement of individual images is also smoother
- Improved Layer Editor with selectable columns to display just what you want
- Reload button in Layer Editor so you can paint transparency in any photo software and have a quick refresh to see the result live in the editor
- APG only : exposure fusion preview with a real rendering done as a preview. This allow super easy color accurate parameters adjustment on exposure fusion. It also give a quick preview of the anti-ghost decision.

Changelog
Main changes
- IMPROVEMENT: Rendering statistics in batch render windows has been improved to display computer details too :
- See the resume after the rendering which includes now computer and memory details,
- In the title, the size of final rendering file is displayed when finished,
- You can double click on a finished .pano to open the folder,
- Improvements inspired from an user proposal : http://www.autopano.net/forum/t11515-taille-de-l-image-rendue-dans-la-fenetre-rendu-par-lots
- IMPROVEMENT: Better memory management for low RAM computer for RAW decoding :
- On a 32bits system, the pourcentage of memory reserved for rendering has been reduced, leaving more free memory for RAW decoding,
- The number of thread for RAW decoding has been reduced : one RAW file decoding could use up to 400 MB in RAM, so on 32bits systems, there isn't any room to process 2 RAW in parallel.
- FIX: When changing some settings in general menu, autopano could switch to Arabic language.

Autopano Pro / Giga
- NEW - New memory manager for smartblend phase. It should prevent many crash but not all of them. Smartblend system is still handling the memory in a way that cannot guaranty everything will work fine. It relies partly on the OS memory manager; some big chunks of memory are allocated by us before smartblend (should let at least 900Mo of memory for the system); additionals one which may not create fragmentation are managed by system.
- Memory policy:
- <1Go of memory => allocate ~228Mo
- 2Go of memory => allocate ~512Mo
- 4Go of memory => allocate ~2Go
- 6Go of memory => allocate ~3.5Go
- 8Go of memory => allocate ~6Go
- >16Go of memory => allocate ~12Go
- If a crash happens it should be handled in a gentle way : a message box explains what happens, quit the rendering but not the application.
- This new memory manager should fix theses cases :

- FIXED : Crash when changing focal for fisheye lens
- When using the image propertie dialog box, some crash could occurs when you change lens type or focal length of a fisheye image.
- FIXED : Circular crop display
- In the image properties dialog box, an issue has been solved with the display of the circular crop.
- FIXED : Watermark can reappear
- When using 'Restore default value' in the general settings or in the group dialog box, in some case, the watermark can come back even if the user is registered.
- FIXED : Crash during rendering due to special characters in file name or cache folder
- Fix a crash which result could be crash during rendering but also having a panorama with all the images beeing dispayed like the first one ( all the same ).
- It only happened when having special characters either in the cache folder, or the folder than contains source images or the source image itself.
- NEW : In Flash converter tools, 'limitation view' parameters
- This feature limits the view (right/left/top/down) of the KRPano viewer. Very useful for partial panorama
- UPDATED : Updated UI
- Layout of the toolbar group box of the dialog box of the panorama editor settings has been changed
- UPDATED : New Qt 4.5.2
- This fix some issue with Mac Leopard version like for example the fact that dialog box were not displayed in the middle of the screen.
- The only remaining issue with Mac Leopard is the fact that you still don't have access to the button of zooming / zoomout in panorama editor visually. You have still access to them through keyboard shortcut ( Cmd + 0, Cmd + 1 )

Changelog
Autopano Pro / Giga
- NEW : Update system.
- This system will warns you when a new release of the software is available. It will check online for a new version and notify you during the startup of the application if a new release is available. You can also check manually for a new version through the help / "check for updates" menu. The online check is done during application startup ( at most once per week only ) and of course no private information are sent to the webserver.
- FIXED : Rendering panorama with RAW file crash.
- We found a bug that was not easy to catch because it only happen with big configuration with a high number of core. It happens at rendering and lead to crash.
- FIXED : Extended save bug with fisheye panorama. Save and load issue.
- If you load some .pano and the preview didn't show anything, you probably have this issue. You need to detect again fisheye panoramas that were saved with extended save because some information were lost in the .pano ( the fisheye circular crop and offset in fact ). The workaround is to edit this image in the editor if you see black area : http://www.autopano.net/forum/t6248-app-2-does-not-load-saved-panorama
- FIXED : HDR workflow broken.
- Bug : you can get some grey zone in the previous or rendering : http://www.autopano.net/forum/t6348-hdr-doesn-t-seem-to-work-at-all-in-either-app-or-apg-2.0.1
- Note that you should not use color correction with 32bits image source ( .HDR or openEXR ). It could results in some color lost in bright area.
- NEW : Tonemapper in viewer
- When opening a 32bits file with the internal viewer or the control point editor, you have a new drop-down box to tonemap quickly the image so you can see something in that image.
- FIXED : GPU mode and transparency in input images.
- The GPU preview was not handling this case : http://www.autopano.net/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=45896#p45896
- FIXED : Windows 64 bits version.
- A compiler issue could cause the rendering phase to crash with this version
- FIXED : German translation fixed : http://www.autopano.net/forum/t6313-app-2.01-wrong-init
- FIXED : Mac Tiger Raw detection crash.
- When using raw, crash could occur with "Symbol not found: _mktime$UNIX2003" : http://www.autopano.net/forum/t6077-app-2.0.0-mac-10.4.11-crash-while-finding-source-pictures
- FIXED : Mac registration not sticky.
- With German language and under some circumstance, the registration code could not stickly between session : http://www.autopano.net/forum/t6284-mac-autopano-giga-2.0.1
- INFO : Mac Crash.
- Some mac crash can be explained because the system is not up to date. Some customers reported that the combo update can fix this serious crash that we were not able to reproduce here. Go here to download the combo upgrade : http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_7_Combo_Update
- Confirmed here : http://www.autopano.net/forum/t6270-apg-2.0-64bits-mac-imac-2,83-4-go-ca-plante
- And here : http://www.autopano.net/forum/t6280-autopano-pro-2.0.1-mac-64bits-fixed
- UPDATE : Cameras.txt and lensid.txt
- Nikon D5000 and Canon 500D support added
- Several new lensID for canon were added too
Autopano Tour
- Caps in the inserted list of panorama in the viewer are now kept
- Correction of the autorotation with partial panorama. It could be stucked because in the 3D view, you could have entered a view that is not autorized. So this view is now clamped to authorized value only to prevent that.
