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.
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.
