[Bug 678632] Re: Current directory used for temporary files

 

Thanks for the feedback, Roger.

I think the files concerned are the remapped images only?

If this is the case, then it is a matter of defining what file is
temporary and what not.  If I check any of the boxes in the Remapped
Images section of the Stitcher tab then these are not temporary files
and the current behavior is correct.  But if those checkboxes are
unchecked then the images remapped by nona are temporary and the current
application behavior is incorrect.

Can you confirm?

** Summary changed:

- Windows uses current directory for temporary files
+ Current directory used for temporary files

** Changed in: hugin/default
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete

Title:
  Current directory used for temporary files

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  Incomplete
Status in Hugin default series:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I've tried to use hugin and enblend with TIF output. However, this
  generated two TIF files with more than 100MB, which filled up my /home
  partition. However, I have a few gigabytes free at another partition.

  A similar issue could arise if /home was a network-mounted filesystem.
  Even though I would want to operate on files from that filesystem and
  save the final result there, those huge temporary files should be
  stored elsewhere (/tmp or any user-defined place).

  My suggestion: allow the user to specify an alternate temporary
  directory.
