Panorama in PE 6

In article , says…

Anybody having difficulties with making panoramas in PW 6. When I select File -> New – . (choose) Photomerge Panorama… I receive the following error – Error 1: Unable to create Window – Internal error. Line 364 – > var w = new Window(res);

Until now I had no real problem with Photomerge Panorama in PSE 6, which, BTW, is much better than in PSE 5, and the versions before.

As a matter of fact Photomerge is REALLY hungry for RAM. I tried to make a panorama out of 8 pictures with 10 MPixels each. A 2.6 GHz P4 with 512 MB RAM gave up, but a 2.66 GHz DualCore Xeon with 3 GB RAM had no problems at all 😉

I’m using a Pentium DuoCore 2.4 Ghz with 4 gig ram. I know system only recognizes 3 gig but that’s a moot point. I have had a problem with panoramas with my older Pentium 3.2 GHz & PE5. It’s gotta be a problem with Vista.

I just did the most obvious solution when one runs into a difficulty of this ilk. I uninstalled PE6 and reinstalled the program – tires of screwing around with the options – and all is now working! Wonder what I did???

I have used a free standalone program called Autostitch for several years with great results. It will also stitch an n x m array of photos. If you want to experiment even though you have fixed your problem with a reinstall, you can try here:
