I was reading that Gwenview is capable of creating panorama images, stitching images together, so installed kipi-plugins 2.9.0 and libkipi 4.9.4 and see no option in Gwenview plugins menu?

What's more, I do not get any such option in digiKam, even after installing Hugin. Apparently I'm supposed to see a menu option in Tools → Stitch images into a panorama and then the Panorama Creator Wizard is supposed to start. None of this happens and I don't see Stitch images into a panorama option.

What am I missing to get the option in GV (and digiKam if you know) ??

Thanks.

does hugin run standalone ok?

Yeah, 'Panorama Stitcher' fires up ok, as do 'Lens Calibrator' and 'Batch Processor' . Says it's version 2011.4.0

does it work for a new/diff user? if so you could try renaming your kipi rc file ~/.kde[4]/share/config/kipirc

Doesn't appear to do anything, and when I look in kipirc file there's no mention of any Hugin settings or panorama, etc, just advanced slide show settings and other stuff I see in the menu.

do you have /usr/bin/panoramagui it should be included in the kipi-plugins package

I asked about kipirc because mine has a Panorama section that lists some of the Hugin supplied binaries

[Panorama Settings]
Celeste=false
HDR=false
Horizon=true
Output Projection And Size=true
Save PTO=false
autooptimiserBinary[$e]=
cpcleanBinary[$e]=
cpfindBinary[$e]=
enblendBinary[$e]=
makeBinary[$e]=
nonaBinary[$e]=
pto2mkBinary[$e]=

Ah. I don't have /usr/bin/panoramagui

maybe reinstall kipi-plugins I looked at the file list on the Chakra site and the file is listed

Thanks, I'm multi booting at the moment and trying out Sabayon (mainly to see if I actually really do miss anything Gtk) so this is happening in SL. All I know is I've got kipi 2.9.0, libkipi 4.9.4 and hugin 2011.4. I've reinstalled kipi / libkipi a couple of times, maybe I should be asking at SL forums, I'll see if I can find panoramagui in the package list first tho.

Looks like a USE flag issue. Thanks again.
