💖 PTBLENDER — colour and brightness correction of panoramas 💖

okay bestie, you're in the LIBPANO13 TOOLS section of the manual, and this is PTblender, and I need you to know she is a specialist. She does one thing and she does it gorgeously. Let's go. ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

PTblender [options] tiff_file(s)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the vibe: PTblender is a command-line tool that only implements the colour and brightness correction functionality of PTmender. That's it. That's the whole girl. No extra features, no side quests, just the glow-up pass on your panorama. 🫶

She's the "I only do one thing but I do it flawlessly" friend, and honestly? Respect. 👑

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -p prefix — Prefix for your output filenames, bestie. Defaults to blended%4d. 🎀
  • -k index — Which image is the reference one, i.e. the one everybody else matches to. It's 0-based, and it defaults to 0. 🌸
  • -t [0,1,2] — Type of colour correction, choose your fighter:
    • 0 — full (this is the default, the whole package 💅)
    • 1 — brightness only
    • 2 — colour only
  • -c — Output curves smooth. You get one per each corrected file. 🦋
  • -m — Output curves arbitrary map. Also one per each corrected file. 💜
  • -f — Force processing, which means ignore the warnings. Bold of you, but okay. 🔥
  • -x — Delete source files. She's serious. Use with care. 😭
not me deleting my own inputs 💀 this flag is permanent, bestie, there are no takebacks.
  • -q — Quiet run. Very demure, very mindful, no output chatter. 🤫
  • -h — Output help summary. When in doubt, ask her. 🙈
