With the trait in place the claim still meant nothing while every caller
named dr_decode's free functions: a second decoder would have had to be
threaded through the scan, the thumbnail ladder, import, the viewer,
export, merge and repairs at the moment it arrived.
Each of those now takes a &dyn Decoder and reads headers, previews,
orientation and sensor data through it, including the header budget a
remote fetch asks for (header_bytes) and where it finds the embedded
preview (locate_preview). Only the places that start a job name
dr_decode::default(): the thumbnail, sweep and thumbnail-sweep threads,
the viewer's open handlers, and the request structs a job is handed
(BatchRequest, MergeRequest, the import Request, the repairs Toolkit),
so a caller can be given another decoder by changing what it is handed.
The default is rawler through the same free functions as before, so
nothing a user sees changes. The trait gains Debug as a supertrait so
request structs that derive Debug can carry one.
wgpu reports a device out of memory by panicking, and a twelve-frame
merge on a GPU another process is using is where that happens. The panic
unwound the worker, the sender went with it, and the page sat on "Stop"
with every control disabled and nothing to say why — the crash record on
disk was the only sign. Catch the panic and send it as a failure, and
treat a closed channel with no final event as a dead worker too.
A Border choice beside the projection — crop to the picture, or fill it
— that redraws the preview filled so the invented pixels are seen before
they are confirmed (FR-MRG-1), greyed with the reason when the model is
not there. The job fills at half the composite's resolution in a
display-ish space (white balance, matrix, gamma; invertible) and samples
the result back into the linear DNG wherever no frame reached; the
sidecar's merge line says border filled and with which knobs.
Experimental because the fill is right in thin borders and wrong in deep
corners, where the model's Places2 prior puts clouds in sky and water
under grass; so its six knobs — working scale, edge erosion, coarse pass,
band width, mirror depth, seam feather — are sliders under the choice,
each committing a redraw, until the defaults are right.
Picking a chip stored the choice for the merge and changed nothing on
screen — the chip did not even highlight, since the selected property
was never written back. Now the pick is reflected, and the job, waiting
for its decision, takes a Preview request, draws the alignment on the
chosen surface at proxy cost and reports again; the drain puts the new
picture and its size up. Auto is the surface the field of view suggests.
Also:
The largest rectangle inside the frames' coverage is found a row at a
time — a histogram of consecutive covered rows and a stack pass per row —
so the composite is never held to be measured (FR-MRG-11). It is written
as DefaultCropOrigin/DefaultCropSize (FR-MRG-4): the file opens on the
picture, the border is still in it, and resetting the crop shows it.
rawler reports the crop as the picture, which the test checks.
FR-MRG-4 records the question raised the same day — fill the border
rather than crop it — as open: a non-generative fill through the heal,
or a generative inpainter with its licence and weights. Neither decided.
A sweep whose frames overlap by more than half reads as one photograph,
and the page's job is to show frames. Each footprint is walked along its
border and drawn in amber where it lands, so twelve frames look like
twelve and a misplaced one is visible as such. The preview may take most
of the page's height rather than 320 px.
derived_from and merge are top-level sidecar fields (FR-MRG-6): one line
per source in order, and how the composite was made. A build that
predates them keeps the lines as unknown and writes them back. The job
writes the sidecar beside the composite and stages it with its own
record when the composite goes through the outbox.
DARKROOM_START_MERGE=a.CR2,b.CR2 lands on the merge page at startup with
the job running on local files, on the model of DARKROOM_START_IDENTITY,
for looking at the page where synthetic clicks do not reach it. The fetch
and the start are shared with the grid's button.
panorama.md §11 records what exists, the fixture's figures, and the six
things still open, auto-crop first.
dr_ui::merge is the orchestration with no interface in it: decode each
frame to sensor data and build its graph as a session would (orientation,
lens profile); render each through the camera-space tap at proxy size and
detect keypoints there, so the alignment is measured in the undistorted
frame the tiles are rendered in; align; solve one gain per frame from the
proxies' overlaps; draw the aligned set in colour for the page; then wait.
Nothing is written until a Decision arrives (FR-MRG-1). The merge writes
a linear DNG through the outbox with a destination record, so the drain
puts it beside its sources on a folder library and a server alike, and
the library rescans (FR-MRG-3).
merge.slint is the page, on the import page's model: the alignment
table with a failed frame named on its row and the button held off
(FR-MRG-5), the preview, the projection choice, Stop and Back. A
"Merge to panorama" button joins the grid's selection bar at two frames.
Headless, the example produces the fixture's 22 993 x 5 980 DNG in 45 s
on the reference desktop, exposures balanced across the stop of drift.
