    Depending on the photo motive that's not very difficult, here is a night shot of a well know place in town ...

    ... and then some applied adjustments ...

    ... and then tweak it further ...

    The way to get such an effect is overall to lower contrast (say -100%), enhance shadows (say +100%), reduce some color hues (cyan/blue/magenta about -35%) and add some slightly vibrance. - You can also apply selective color adjustments for certain colors of the respective image.

    And I still use VP. But it basically died in 2002 when Corel decided to not update it any longer.

    Rick G reacted to AiDon in Difficult Panorama wont Stitch (Beta/Prd)   
    I'm not sure that the 1 & 4 images are that similar as the 1 image has a shore background, anyway it is a opportunity for AP to improve as even Hugin, one of the better Panorama apps, does it easily.
     
    FootNote: Products that have AutoStitch (like AutoPano) stich it OK … I wonder if Serif PanoramaPlus will work?

    Given that PanoramaPlus is based on AutoStitch it should work in theory, but in practice there have been a number of reports about the full version of PanoramaPlus doing a poor job where the free Starter Edition worked fine!

    Hi AiDon,
    I've seen similar issues when there's too much overlapping. If you don't use the file 83.jpg at all and crop the right part of the 82 a little it should stitch correctly. In any case Affinity Photo should be able to handle this alone. I will log this to be looked at.

    I just had an idea! Why don't the posts about the failings of designer GO INTO THE DESIGNER FORUM (or Designer beta as appropriate)? Search first to see if anyone has already pointed out the issue and add to it. If not then create an issue that others can verify and support

    ^^ Same. It was first introduced to me when I was in college. It was way over my head, and it certainly didn't have an easy learning curve.

    There's no need to rush things and I'm sure the same people asking for the immediate release of Publisher would be the first ones to raise the pitchforks if something's wrong with it.
