[ptx] Stitching scanned, "flat" images

hi all,

Stitching scanned, "flat" images

OK
Now, what about translated views for rectilinear projection of a front plane?
you have to set y, p, r to their real values
can the offset variables d and e do the job correctly?
I'm not sure this can be done even if the picture is taken orthogonally to the plan
What if the pictures are taken with vaious angles to the plan?
this happens systematically because of the imprecise positioning and intentionnally when you want to avoid the flash
reflection on the plane.
one thing is clear: the limitation is not one of Hugin

that said, it would be nice to add a tab for custom parameters (N+2 fields)
- one for each image -o field individually
- one for all images -o fields globally to be inserted before the individual settings
- one for all images -o fields globally to be inserted after the individual settings

I think this would be very easy to implement and would save a lot of time
(script editing is not usable on a regular basis)

and waiting for something better
- a button that makes all parameters individual (for optimisation)
