How do I determine what PARTS of photos will show up in the final?

Working on a massive 800MP picture. There are parts of some pictures that I just don't want showing up in the final, such as duplicate people that had moved from shot to shot during the picture taking. Currently the biggest problem is:

All pictures were taken at 200mm. There's a blank space where I missed a spot, so I'm using a shot taken at 70mm to fill it in. Instead of using that 70mm photo to just fill in that spot, autopano is placing that less detailed 70mm picture above all of my other more detailed 200mm ones.

How do I determine what parts of photos will show up in the final? The autopano layering system doesn't work like photoshop's. Will I actually have to resort to saving my 800MB file as a LAYERED psd that'll be incredibly difficult to work with?

A methode which works for different focal lengths is described in this post: http://www.autopano.net/forum/t3526-pro … els#p22399

This works only when the "wide lens shot" is placed in a separate "APP layers".

Using One per file option rather than Layered is probably preferable. You should explore the many Render options availlable and decide which one you prefer (for example you could use 2 compressed JPEG, that is one JPEG per "APP layer".)

No, in French and in English (or about in English.) I forgot I was on the French side of the forum, posted in English, translated the post in French but didn't delete the English one mad/cool

The link should point to the English post.

Good method GURL!

Fuzzybabybunny you could also crop out just the needed part from your low-res shot, or mask the unneeded parts in the alpha channel, and only then stitch.
