Set "North" of a spherical image --> prealign

MarcW. · February 1, 2019 at 3:47 PM

Hi,
I want to set the north of a tour to the same direction in all images. I´m using "prealign" because I don´t have any gps or "north" data. I´m rotating the panorama in the tour and then I estimate the degrees to prealign. Then I test and set prealign again until its fine.
Is there another option to do this faster? For example that I can see the ath value of the correct view and use the difference of starting view als prealign value?

So I have to see the ath-value of the actual view. Is there a plugin?

Thank you,
Marc

Do you want to set north when loading each scene? You can display the hlookat readings in the console and calculate the difference amendment

i always use this code to get spherical coordinates of panorama under mouse pointer:

<action name="get_coordinates">
screentosphere(mouse.x, mouse.y, toh, tov);
roundval(toh, 2);
roundval(tov, 2);
txtadd(txt, 'ath="', get(toh), '" atv="', get(tov), '"');
trace('ath=', toh, ' atv=', tov);
</action>

also if you wanna mesure ath roughly without click and console:

Hi,

maybe this little tool i made is a option for you.
You'll find your coordinates under 'numbers'.
