force resolution of longest focal length
very annoying, ive not had this problem before:
shooting at mixed focal lengths, tele for the details, with wide to fill in gaps (either accidental or in the featureless sky). Normally APP2 will correctly pick the resolution of the image as that of the longer focal length, but for once it's gone for that of the wide angle filler shots. Any ideas how to force it to take it from the tele shots?
TIA

Re: force resolution of longest focal length
Really ? it should not. The maximal size of the panorama is always calculated on the resolution of the longest focal length.
So 100% means 1 pixel of the longest focal length is converted into 1 pixel on the final panorama.
Nevertheless, there might be some adjustment of that if the longest focal length image is not in the middle and you are using planar mode. In planar mode, at edges, the images can be distorted because of the projection. This facto is taken into account in this maximum size calculation. This may explain that behavior.

Re: force resolution of longest focal length
ill try a few more details:
tele focal length is at 116mm 35mm equiv, wider angle is 36mm equiv. About 50 shots at the long focal length and two at the shorter focal length.
When i give APP2 all the images it puts them together fine in cylindrical projection at about 9000x3000 pixels, if i just give it the longer focal length images with no other changes to settings etc, it goes to about 30000x10000px again in cylindrical projection. Ive used this technique seveal times now and never had it do this.

Re: force resolution of longest focal length
This would be a case to share with us to study the calculation behind.
