[Bug 696660] [NEW] Old preview needs to be merged into Fast Preview window

 

Public bug reported:

Hugin has two preview windows, this is confusing.

The 'old' preview is still useful because it does basic HDR merging and
tonemapping, and it isn't obvious how the fast preview could do this in
OpenGL.

These two windows should be merged together.  I suggest that the 'old'
preview would become an additional 'HDR tab' in the 'Fast Preview
window' where it will have HDR mode permanently enabled. The 'old'
preview is very slow and doesn't do progressive image loading, so this
tab needs to have a 'Show tonemapped HDR preview' checkbox disabled by
default.
