💖 Panotools::Script::Line::Panorama 💖

okay bestie, gather round 🫶 this lil page is straight out of the User Contributed Perl Documentation, section 3, and it's literally all about Panotools panorama parameters. it's giving "tiny page, huge power" and i am obsessed ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

Panotools::Script::Line::Panorama — Panotools panorama parameters 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

Panorama parameters are described by a 'p' line. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🌈

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so here's the tea, bestie — every one of these lives on that 'p' line, and here's what each one does 👑

  • w1000 — width in pixels 📏
  • h600 — height in pixels 📐
  • f0 — the projection format, and there are SO many options, no cap:
    1. 0 — rectilinear (for printing and viewing)
    2. 1 — Cylindrical (for Printing and QTVR)
    3. 2 — Equirectangular ( for Spherical panos), default
    4. 3 — full-frame fisheye
    5. 4 — stereographic
    6. 5 — mercator
    7. 6 — transverse mercator
    8. 7 — sinusoidal
    9. 8 — Lambert Equal Area Cylindrical
    10. 9 — Lambert Azimuthal
    11. 10 — Albers Equal Area Conical
    12. 11 — Miller Cylindrical
    13. 12 — Panini
    14. 13 — Architectural
    15. 14 — Orthographic
    16. 15 — Equisolid
    17. 16 — Equirectangular Panini
    18. 17 — Biplane
    19. 18 — Triplane
    20. 19 — Panini_General
    21. 20 — Thoby
    22. 21 — Hammer
  • v360 — horizontal field of view of panorama (default 360) 🌀
  • nPICT — the Panorama file format, pick one of these cuties:
    • PNG — png-format, 8 & 16 bit supported
    • TIFF — tiff-format, all tiff types supported (8,16,32 bit int, float, double)
    • TIFF_m — tiff-format, multi-file, one image per file
      • alpha layer with non-feathered clip mask at image border
    • TIFF_multilayer — tiff-format, multi-image-file, all files in one image
      • alpha layer with non-feathered clip mask at image border
      • This filetype is supported by The GIMP 👑
    • JPEG — Panoramic image in jpeg-format.

some more supported file formats (mostly only 8 bit support) 🫶

  • PNM, PGM, BMP, SUN, VIFF

Special options for TIFF output:

  • n"TIFF c:NONE"
    • c - select TIFF compression, possible options: NONE, LZW, DEFLATE

Special options for TIFF_m and TIFF_multilayer output:

  • n"TIFF c:NONE r:CROP"
    • c - TIFF compression, possible options NONE, LZW, DEFLATE
    • r - output only used image area (cropped output). The crop offsets are stored in the POSITIONX and POSITONY tiff tags
    • p1 - save coordinate images (useful for further programs, like vignetting correction)

Special options for JPEG output:

  • n"JPEG q95"
    • q - jpeg quality
  • u10 — width of feather for stitching all images. default:10 🪶
  • k1 — attempt color & brightness correction using image number as anchor 🎨
  • b1 — attempt brightness correction with no color change using image number as anchor ☀️
  • d1 — attempt color correction with no brightness change using image number as anchor 🌈
    • Do not use more than one of k, d, b.This is new method of correcting
⚠️ bestie please, do NOT use more than one of k, d, b. one at a time. i'm serious. 🙈
  • E1 — exposure value for final panorama 💡
  • R1 — stitching mode: 0: normal LDR mode, 1: HDR mode 🔥
  • T"UINT8" — bitdepth of output images, possible values are
    • UINT8 - 8 bit unsigned
    • UINT16 - 16 bit unsigned
    • FLOAT - 32 bit floating point
    • By default the bit depth of the input images is used.
  • S100,600,100,800 — Selection(left,right,top,bottom), Only pixels inside the rectangle will be rendered. Images that do not contain pixels in this area are not rendered/created. ✂️
  • P"0 60" — Projection parameters. e.g. Albers Equal Area Conical requires extra parameters. 🧚

and that's the whole page, periodt 💜 this was perl v5.42.0, dated 2025-07-25 — mwah, slay, go stitch something iconic bestie 🎀✨
