merging tiles with kmaketiles

gregdowning · March 25, 2011 at 2:02 AM

I think there is something I don't fully understand here. I am trying to merge tiles together back into a complete image w/ kmaketiles.

Lets say that I have 4 8k tiles that I would like to merge back into a 16k x 16k image. The names of the files are 1_1.tif, 1_2.tif, 2_1.tif & 2_2.tif. If I understand the help correctly the commands to do this should look something like this:

Code

kmaketiles %v_%h.tif outputfile.tif -intilesize=2x2 -insize=8192x8192

but I get the error that it is an invalid tilesize.

do I have it right that the "insize" is the pixel dimensions of the input tile and the "intilesize" is the number of rows and columns?

oops, should have done a more thorough search, found the answer here:http://www.krpano.com/forum/wbb/inde…tiles#post14391

the code that correctly tiled a 16k image in this case was

Code

kmaketiles %h_%v.tif output.tif 0 -intilesize=8192x8192 -insize=16384x16384

so trying to merge some jpgs and stuck. Tried a good few different versions, combinations, change but still stuck - I know its something relatively simple which is the most frustrating thing of all

Code

kmaketiles (list of jpgs) merged.tif 0 -intilesize=1200x1200 -insize=12500x6250

Code

ERROR: invalid or bad argument: merged.tif

and while I'm here asking: is it possible to merge to export to kro or psb files ?

Hi,

that '(list of jpgs)' is wrong,

not a list of jpeg must be passed,
but a 'template' filename like 'tiles_%0v_%0h.jpg',

the tool replaces then the % placeholders with the tile-indices,
maybe also see the xml file for right template name,

best regards,
Klaus

ah, of course. That'd make a lotta sense -

Thanks for incredible tool and patience with the questions like that:)
