SYNOPSIS

enfuse [\,options\/] [\,--output=IMAGE\/] \,INPUT\/...

DESCRIPTION

Fuse INPUT images into a single IMAGE.

INPUT... are image filenames or response filenames. Response filenames start with an "@" character.

Common options:

-V, --version

output version information and exit

-h, --help

print this help message and exit

-l, --levels=\,LEVELS\/

limit number of blending LEVELS to use (1 to 29); negative number of LEVELS decreases maximum; "auto" restores the default automatic maximization

-o, --output=\,FILE\/

write output to FILE; default: "a.tif"

-v, --verbose[=\,LEVEL\/]

verbosely report progress; repeat to increase verbosity or directly set to LEVEL

-w, --wrap[=\,MODE\/]

wrap around image boundary, where MODE is "none", "horizontal", "vertical", or "both"; default: none; without argument the option selects horizontal wrapping

--compression=\,COMPRESSION\/

set compression of output image to COMPRESSION, where COMPRESSION is: "deflate", "jpeg", "lzw", "none", "packbits", for TIFF files and 0 to 100, or "jpeg", "jpeg-arith" for JPEG files, where "jpeg" and "jpeg-arith" accept a compression level

--layer-selector=\,ALGORITHM\/

set the layer selector ALGORITHM; default: "all-layers"; available algorithms are: "all-layers": select all layers in all images; "first-layer": select only first layer in each multi-layer image; "largest-layer": select largest layer in each multi-layer image; "no-layer": do not select any layer from any image;

--parameter=\,KEY1[=VALUE1][\/:KEY2[=VALUE2][:...]]

set one or more KEY-VALUE pairs

Extended options:

-b BLOCKSIZE

image cache BLOCKSIZE in kilobytes; default: 2048KB

-c, --ciecam

use CIECAM02 to blend colors; disable with "--no-ciecam"

--fallback-profile=\,PROFILE-FILE\/

use the ICC profile from PROFILE-FILE instead of sRGB

-d, --depth=\,DEPTH\/

set the number of bits per channel of the output image, where DEPTH is "8", "16", "32", "r32", or "r64"

-g

associated-alpha hack for Gimp (before version 2) and Cinepaint

-f WIDTHxHEIGHT[+xXOFFSET+yYOFFSET]

manually set the size and position of the output image; useful for cropped and shifted input TIFF images, such as those produced by Nona

-m CACHESIZE

set image CACHESIZE in megabytes; default: 1024MB

Fusion options:

--exposure-weight=\,WEIGHT\/

weight given to well-exposed pixels (0 <= WEIGHT <= 1); default: 1

--saturation-weight=\,WEIGHT\/

weight given to highly-saturated pixels (0 <= WEIGHT <= 1); default: 0.2

--contrast-weight=\,WEIGHT\/

weight given to pixels in high-contrast neighborhoods (0 <= WEIGHT <= 1); default: 0

--entropy-weight=\,WEIGHT\/

weight given to pixels in high entropy neighborhoods (0 <= WEIGHT <= 1); default: 0

--exposure-mu=\,MEAN\/

center also known as MEAN of Gaussian weighting function (0 <= MEAN <= 1); default: 0.5

--exposure-sigma=\,SIGMA\/

standard deviation of Gaussian weighting function (SIGMA > 0); default: 0.2

--soft-mask

average over all masks; this is the default

--hard-mask

force hard blend masks and no averaging on finest scale; this is especially useful for focus stacks with thin and high contrast features, but leads to increased noise

Expert options:

--exposure-cutoff=\,LOWERCUTOFF[\/:UPPERCUTOFF[:LOWERPROJECTOR[:UPPERPROJECTOR]]]

LOWERCUTOFF and UPPERCUTOFF are the values below or above of which pixels are weighted with zero weight in exposure weighting; append "%" signs for relative values; default: 0%:100%:anti-value:value

--contrast-window-size=\,SIZE\/

set window SIZE for local-contrast analysis (SIZE >= 3); default: 5

--gray-projector=\,PROJECTOR\/

apply gray-scale PROJECTOR in exposure or contrast weighing, where PROJECTOR is one of "anti-value", "average", "l-star", "lightness", "luminance", "pl-star", "value", or "channel-mixer:RED-WEIGHT:GREEN-WEIGHT:BLUE-WEIGHT"; default: "average"

--contrast-edge-scale=\,EDGESCALE[\/:LCESCALE[:LCEFACTOR]]

set scale on which to look for edges; positive LCESCALE switches on local contrast enhancement by LCEFACTOR (EDGESCALE, LCESCALE, LCEFACTOR >= 0); append "%" to LCESCALE for values relative to EDGESCALE; append "%" to LCEFACTOR for relative value; default: 0:0:0

--contrast-min-curvature=\,CURVATURE\/

minimum CURVATURE for an edge to qualify; append "%" for relative values; default: 0

--entropy-window-size=\,SIZE\/

set window SIZE for local entropy analysis (SIZE >= 3); default: 3

--entropy-cutoff=\,LOWERCUTOFF[\/:UPPERCUTOFF]

LOWERCUTOFF is the value below of which pixels are treated as black and UPPERCUTOFF is the value above of which pixels are treated as white in the entropy weighting; append "%" signs for relative values; default: 0%:100%

--save-masks[=\,SOFT-TEMPLATE[\/:HARD-TEMPLATE]]

save weight masks in SOFT-TEMPLATE and HARD-TEMPLATE; conversion chars: "%i": mask index, "%n": mask number, "%p": full path, "%d": dirname, "%b": basename, "%f": filename, "%e": extension; lowercase characters refer to input images uppercase to the output image default: "softmask-%n.tif":"hardmask-%n.tif"

--load-masks[=\,SOFT-TEMPLATE[\/:HARD-TEMPLATE]]

skip calculation of weight maps and use the ones in the files matching the templates instead. These can be either hard or soft masks. For template syntax see "--save-masks"; default: "softmask-%n.tif":"hardmask-%n.tif"

Enfuse accepts arguments to any option in uppercase as well as in lowercase letters.
