It did not work either - I guess you left the old code checking for a
particular string, which does not exist in newer enfuse version.

To move forward, I copied&pasted some pieces of code from
enfusebinary.cpp to go over the test just for my enfuse version (I am no
coder and it would take me hours to find out what is the syntax of
functions to do it in a better way). It is attached, but I do not think
you should be interested ;-)

Now back to the expoblending itself:

x the window can be maximised and its size can be changed manually in
Gnome session

x The temporary files get deleted when not saved as final version

Wishes:

x Possibility to skip auto alignment step (not needed for images from
tripod and takes time).

x Possibility to delete the target files (right click with mouse or
icon?). When playing with the expoblending parameters, the list gets
full soon.


I will be testing further and let you know if problems occur.

Cannot run enfuse :

 enfuse: levels must in the range 1 to 29.

==== enfuse, version 3.2 ====

And some wishes:
1. Now I can quckliy compare a few attemps by selecting items on the list, but I will definitely forget the input values I've used when more than 2 ;)
2. The window is modal, so I cannot go to light table.

I was thinking about constructing the file name with some cryptic
abbreviations like:

enfused-01-L25HMoffExp75Sat25Cnt00CIECAMoff.png

There would still be trouble of unknown number of source images used for
"enfusing".

Alternatively, expoblending could remember the settings of each target
and just restore it after clicking on the target thumbnail.

In any case, having an option to rename the file also manually would be
nice.

This is a temp file name generated by KDE API. In fact this one will
be renamed as target file with save button (if you select item in
list), or deleted at end...

To remember enfuse settings i propose to no touch filename (i hate
long file name), but to put all settings description in image comment
from metadata.

Enfuse settings will be displayed over enfused item as tootip and
recorded in XMP metadata

BTW, storing settings in metadata would be good idea also for other operations, e.g. raw decoding. If I don't put some info in caption, I will forget which e.g. profile I used.
