Hello Thomas,

earlier versions of Hugin displayed the help files in the user's
standard browser. Now an integrated help viewer is used.

The help button now opens such a window but that can't be scrolled etc.
at least on OS X since the enblend dialog is a modal window. I'm not
sure how this can be solved in an elegant way without making the user
close the dialog again to read the help page.

Cheers,
Carl

Title:
  Add Help button in enblend options dialog

Status in Hugin:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The dialog can be found in 
  editor window >> Stitcher tab > Processing: Blender: enblend: [Options]

  It would be nice to have a help button just like the one available in
  the preferences dialog (grouped with the Cancel and OK buttons). In
  this case it should probably link to /help/Enblend.html of Hugin's
  built in help pages. That way users can quickly look up command line
  arguments available for the current version of enblend without
  cluttering up the UI with a list of available options. (note to self:
  panotools wiki pages need an update to reflect the new command line
  arguments of enblend and how to combine them, also with a comparison
  to the behaviour of earlier versions of enblend prior to version 4.2)
