Interface

Since version 2.5, the default interface of Autopano is dark grey but it's possible to choose a lighter theme. It comes within the scope of standards for professional photo editing software since it comes with a dark grey background. The icons have also been redesigned with brighter colors. The interface looks like the image below, meaning, a menu bar, classic at the top, an icon bar below - shortcuts - and a wide work area split in two parts: a left part for the content of the files and a right part for pre-stitched panoramas, ready to be finally rendered or edited.

The interface of Autopano Giga or Pro 3.5 is, according to me, more refined than in the previous versions but it's possible to go back to the last version in the preferences of the software.

It's thus really simple once understood how the software gathers photos of a same panorama, which we'll see again later. But first of all, let's see together the basic parameters and preferences of the software.

Preferences of the software


As each piece of software, Autopano Pro/Giga 3.7 allows to customize certain basic options for a personally adapted functioning. A certain number of these basic options can be set via the Menu / Edition / Editor options on Windows or Autopano / Preferences on Mac OS. It is obvious that it's possible to change almost all these options one by one. This six-tabs menu now looks like this:

As you can see, the number of preferences that can be set in Autopano Giga is impressive!


First tab: Preferences

Second tab: Images

1 - The second tab of preferences in Autopano Pro/Giga 3.5 allows to set a default focal for the lens you use all the time, if it's the case, and of course if Exif data isn't detected automatically by the software. We can try to set a default focal other than the one actually used but this is of few interest as a default setting of the software. It will thus be done one by one.
2 - New! - It's possible to choose a few options of development for RAW files.

Piece of advice! Prefer to develop your RAW files directly in your demosaicing software; the result will only be better!
3 - Then, you can set the preferences of management of piles of several photos when you regularly braket. More information on this site: Kolor

Third tab: Detection

I just note here that Autopano Giga 4.2 or Autopano Pro 4.0 use the best stitching algorithms on the market, especially with very distorted lenses or very short focals with strong distortions. Even if we can set the sensitivity and the detection algorithms by default here, they can be changed at any time then. It is thus not very important.

As in each tab, it's possible to reset the default parameters with the button at the bottom left.

Fourth tab: Optimization - (Update 3.5)

Here is a tab that's evolved a lot with the update 3.5: I keep it all unchecked hence completely automatic!


Fifth tab: Panorama
- Updated 4.0

It's possible to choose a certain number of panorama displaying options during the pre-stitching phase:

The 'Panorama' tab practically hasn't evolved since version 2.0.


Sixth tab: Launch the rendering

It's possible to choose several options of final rendering in the preferences of the software. Here again, all the options can be modified individually. Even if this menu is detailed in the third part of this tutorial, certain options can be chosen once and for all here.

The tab 'Launch rendering' has undergone numerous changes we'll see now and in the third part of this tutorial.


So this is how this part dedicated to basic settings of the software Autopano Giga / Pro 4.4 ends. In the next page, we'll start a new project by selecting our photos by different ways : Select images
