3.5.14 Panorama Portrait
Use the Panorama Portrait command to stitch a column of images.
The images to stitch should have been stored in Field Group, and ordered correctly. All
images in Field Group participate in the operation. These images must be identical in
the numbers of columns and rows of pixels and the number of color channels. The first
image in Field Group should be the topmost image of the column of images to be
aligned. The last image in Field Group should be the bottommost image of the column
of images to be aligned. There must be at least two valid images in Field Group.
In addition, any two adjacent images must have at least 20% non-overlapping areas
and at least 32 overlapping rows of pixels. The images are allowed to shift horizontally
but the shift has to be limited to 16 columns of pixels.
A new image window will be created to hold the output panorama image. The output
image copies the sampling intervals and magnification setting from the first input image
from Field Group. Due to the overlapping of the input images, the number of rows of the
output image would be less than those of input images summed. Due to possible
horizontal shift of the input image, the number of columns of the output image might
also be less than that of an input image. The cropping is automatic and transparent to
users.
The example below illustrates the process. The three images on the left are stitched to
create the image on the right.
