Troubleshooting

No verified match joins that frame to the others. Open Modify > Points, pick the frame and a neighbour, and add three or four control points by hand; then stitch again. For plain sky or water, use Pre-stitch Check > Arrange frames to drag the frame to its rough place: it stays there, labelled "placed by hand". PanoRyse never forces a frame into place with a guess.

PanoRyse decided they do not overlap enough. Click the kind chip on the top bar and choose Panorama or Stitch them all anyway, or use Edit > Stitch as Panorama. Check the overlap: 25 to 35 % between neighbours works best.

Open Review stitch in the Stitch inspector. The Stitch Check lists seams, exposure steps, ghosting and misregistration; press Show to find it and Fix to correct it. For moving people or cars, paint a red exclude mask on the frame you do not want them from (Mask tab).

The Stitch Check reports "Likely parallax" with fixes: mask the near object, move the seam, use the local mesh warp (APAP) for that overlap, or shoot again from the lens's no-parallax point. Viewpoint correction (Scenic Pro) helps on flat floors and nadirs.

Turn on Auto-level, or ask AI Assist to "level the horizon". Add vertical line points (t1) on building edges and horizontal line points (t2) on the horizon for full control.

Choose a smaller preview (1080p or 2.5K). The export is still rendered at full size. On a computer without a graphics card the software renderer is slower; see GPU and renderer.

PanoRyse loads large sets as proxies automatically. Close other heavy programs while stitching, and export gigapixel panoramas to the tiled TIFF, which renders from the originals in pieces.

• The field needs at least eight clear stars.
• Fields under about 6 degrees (telescopes, long lenses) need the deep star catalogue pack and an approximate centre; see data packs.
• Heavily processed or synthetic images may not match the real sky.

Colour calibration needs unsaturated stars to measure. On a strongly stretched JPEG there may be too few; the status line says so. Neutralising the background and the black point still work.

Remove the sky gradient first, then separate. Use the refine brushes to add missed stars or protect nebula knots. Try the other engine: Classic is best on small, sharp stars; Learned on smooth, well-sampled data.

Open Info > Frames & Calibration, hover the frame to see why it got its type, and pick the right type in its drop-down (or tick several and use Mark as).
