Download PTGui 12.12

A frequently discussed piece of software in the Photo & Video Workflow sub-forum is PTGui. This program focuses on creating and modifying composite images. This can be a vertical or horizontal panorama, but also one large image with an enormous resolution that is composed of countless separate shots. With a stack of photos as input, the program can then figure out how to put them next to each other. For the calculation-intensive part, the GPU can also be used via OpenCL to be ready faster. It features various options, whereby PTGui Pro also makes it possible to combine HDR photos, mask moving objects and adjust the viewing point, among other things. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

Changes in version 12.12:

• Fixed: failed to open certain project files created with PTGui 10 or earlier, or exported from AutoPano
• Fixed: The crosshair cursor in the Control Points panel and the control point markers did not always use a contrasting color and could be difficult to see.
• Fixed: When switching from 360 x 180 equirectangular to rectilinear projection, the Compression slider would be set to a nonzero value.
• Fixed: the ‘+’ key didn’t work for zooming in in the Detail Viewer
• Fixed: Linux: Options – Viewers – Browse didn’t show any applications
• Fixed: Linux: PTGui had no icon in the dock or when doing alt+tab
• Fixed: Linux: the supplied icon file (ptgui_icon.png) was corrupt
• Linux: changed the keyboard shortcuts for Previous/Next Image and Previous/Next Blend Plane from Ctrl+Alt+Arrow Key to Ctrl+Shift+Arrow Key. This was done because the ‘Ctrl+Alt’ shortcuts are already in use by the Gnome desktop.
• Linux: added install and uninstall scripts. To install, extract the downloaded archive and run install.sh. This will add PTGui to the desktop environment and register its file types.
• Added support for Leica .RWL raw files
• Added lens profile for Ricoh Theta X
• Added lens profile for Insta360 ONE RS 1-Inch 360 Edition
• Added lens profile for Meike MK-7.5mm F2.8 Fisheye
• Added lens profile for Tokina SZ 8mm F2.8 Fisheye
• Added sensor size data for newer cameras
