Shortcomings
There are some features wed like The Panorama Factory
to have in the future -- no promises, though.
Things that might be realistic additions in the next feature
release:
- Retouching tools.
- Improved auto-exposure compensation.
- VR file format output (QTVR, IVR, etc.).
- User preferences.
Features that are probably pretty hard to add (i.e., don't
hold your breath):
- Vertical panoramas (currently vertical panoramas must be
stitched sideways).
- Undo ! Right now the only thing you can do is save the project
whenever are happy with its state. Then if you make a mistake you can close the project
without saving and then reopen it from the good version. Note that the Auto Save Project
properties option subverts this approach.
- Ability to tilt the camera up or down rather than just keep it
level.
In between:
- Standard cut-copy-paste approach for (1) thumbnails and (2)
image decorations.
- Onscreen zoom control.
- Better performance! (Is any program fast enough?).
- Fisheye lens support.
