Sharing knowledge around Autopano
You are not logged in.
hi,
i'm testing the trial of autopano pro at the moment and i'm very impressed of the results, since i'm working with adobe lightroom, i'd like to see a plugin to get the selected images (or the actual directory) directly from lightroom
i think this should'nt be a big problem for someone with lua (lightrooms scripting language) skills
regards
miles

If you don't mind generating intermediate TIFFs (and having the lightroom settings applied) you can set up an "external editor" in the preferences menu (you choose how the files should be exported for that app). Then when you select photos and right click you can say edit in. It will generate the TIFFs and launch the app. A selection of multiple photos in lightroom appears as a group in autopano pro, which you can then run detection on.

foundation, how do you automatically load the images in app?

If you call autopano with some full filename images on the command line, it will create a group with them directly. It also works with a folder.
That's the only command line parameter you have in autopano pro / giga. All is the command line scripting is in fact part of autopano server.

Ok, but it does not work under linux, because you forgot to give the params to the binary from the script shell. Once modified that way:
#!/bin/bash export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/AutopanoPro /usr/lib/AutopanoPro/AutopanoPro $@
(note the $@ at the end) it works fine. Same for AutopanoGiga.

hello guys,
thank you for your replies, i already tried the 'external editor' function, but i get each file as seperate group in app, of course i could drag'n'drop that groups together - but that's no suitable workflow for me
am i doing something wrong?

Miles,
I definitely got my selected pictures as a single group. What version of APP and lightroom are you running?

Don't know LR, but I guess there are different params, depending if you want to run one instance of the external editor per photo to edit, or only one instance for all photos...
For example, Geeqie uses 2 params for that : %p or %f...

Hi,
I miss the point with app command line. i must have a look on it.
i also use LR2 and app. I've set LR2 to survey an app rendering folder. after rendering, pano is automaticaly integrated in LR2 and copied in a pano folder.

foundation,
i use lr 2.0 with app 1.4.2 (trial) on a mac - i found no way to pass parameters to the external application in lightroom
Offline
What parameters are you trying to pass? I didn't pass any parameters and the photos came in as a single group. When I get home I will try to do a screen video capture.

hello foundation,
thank you for your answer, i don't pass any parameters to app i even do not know how to configure the external editor in lr2.0 to get started with predefined parameters (lr just lets me choose the binary file to open)
i tried to define a shellscript as external editor, but lr seems to support only binary files
any ideas?

Here's a screenshot of the external editor settings that I use to send a group of images to auto pano pro.
