The sea/flat terain should never have steps in it... This should be an absolute priority for the stitching software as it's often SO obvious!
Most of the time the foreground below the step doesn't contain any important details, so morphing/shifting joins there woud be totally invisible.
Please, please please! Can when have the tool?
A stepped horizon is a failed stitch.

It is easy to get a pano at RMS 2.0 with a nice horizon. The problem is to get it horisontal, and the "vertical line"-tool makes steps and is to no use in theese cases.
A solution is:
start with the RMS 2.0 detection, use a tool like the Photoshop line-tool to mark the horizon, like in the image below
the "horisontal horizon"-tool warp the pano so the marked line is horisontal

CheeseAndJamSandwich wrote:I.e. chasing rabbits.
With the new tool ideas we've suggested, once we've set the points/line on the horizon, this should then be set in stone, no matter what manipulations you try after, it shouldn't be possible to change it unless you first disabled the true horizon tool.
CheeseAndJamSandwich wrote:But perhaps it should work on two levels... The first as above, which fixes steps and wiggly horizons...
And second, perhaps a switch to allow the moving, rotating, as with normal good panos, but the steps are fixed. So the now flat horizon can go S shaped... perhaps only needed for special occasions :-)

I can't see the tutorial yet. Am I looking at the wrong places ?
The problem is still there. This example shows that APG finds CP's in the sky, which is of no interest, but does not care about the horizon. For humans the borderline between water and sky is the importent element here, but APG seems to ignore it and happily make CP's in the clouds instead.
For the wish-list:
if there is a water-sky-horizon make shure it is straight and horisontal, Auto !
