    Vertical Stitching Question

    rollsnut Community Member

      I am on a PC using CS5.5 extended with Windows 7.

       

      I have searched the forum but haven't found discussion on vertical stitching. If I go to the normal "Automate-Photomerge" there is nothing about vertical.

       

      Is there some magic to vertical stitching, a plug-in somewhere, or any information before I try to achieve it?

       

      Thanks in advance for any insight.

          There is no option like that the images should auto align. Like you should be able to capture a pano like a tic tack toe broad. Three images wide and three high.  I don't know if the order of capture matters. What matters most is good image over lap.  There are also many dedicated stitching programs the Photoshop Photomerge.

           

           

          Photomerge also had a manual option the lite you arrange the images I think it will still try to snap the images into alignment as you position them.  I don't use photomerge my comement is my reclection of what I remember from when I tried using it.  Photomerge also aborthed a few time on me in cs5.

            I've done a number of vertical panoramas with File - Automate - Photomerge.

             

            Do you have a particular problem with doing so, or have you just not tried it?  If the latter, try it!

              Noel:

               

              I have not tried it, but getting ready to try and didn't see any options like I said. From your comment I will play with the "Automatic" setting...I just wasn't sure.

               

              Thanks for your reply.

                All the choices should work, actually, not just Auto.  Alignment is automatic in all of them.  Personally I most often choose Cylindrical.
