[Bug 707309] Re: filenames badly sorted -> destroys "multirow" technique

 

Sorting by date created won't be straightforward, since we need to open
the files to discover the EXIF date, and with Hugin the files don't get
opened until the project has been created and the list has already been
sorted.

However a 'Sort...' button similar to the 'Reset...' button but which
offered different sorting criteria would be a useful addition.  This has
been prototyped in ptosort, in particular being able to sort by yaw and
pitch or EV value is especially useful: http://search.cpan.org/dist
/Panotools-Script/bin/ptosort

(BTW I have a HTC wildfire, which is a very similar phone, and the
photos are named with a sensible naming system: IMAG0624.JPG,
IMAG0625.JPG, etc... I don't know why your phone is doing this awkward
naming)

Title:
  filenames badly sorted -> destroys "multirow" technique

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  New

Bug description:
  I have 18 images from an HTC Desire (very popular phone, and a decent
  camera)

  these are the filenames, as sorted by Hugin:

  no1, no10, no11, no12, no13, no14, no15, no16, no17, no18, no2, no3,
  no4, no5, no6, no7, no8, no9

  This could obviously create some issues if stitching with "multirow"
  mode on.

  Can Hugin please sort the files in "human sequential" way (which also
  happens to be the way this particular camera names the files)?
