I've been working on stitched pano of 25 images that were rendered with Autopano Pro v2.06. This was brought into PhotoShop CS3. After many hours of editing, and many many layers, I have the image were I want it, but there some verticals that need to be straightened, and PS just can't handle it the way APP can, so I need to go back to Autopano and restitch and straighten verticals.
After working with PS for over 3 years now, I don't know the answer to the following question.
Question, is it possible to apply all of my edits from the first image to the second image, if it can be done, how do I do it?
Thanks for any help.

I could be wrong but I don't think you can do what your asking. Also, I don't understand your problem with doing your vertical corrections in PS, can you post the image? Maybe describe exactly why you can't correct your verts.

Hi Peter,
Thanks for the reply.The images are of some old classic buildings taken at night. I used a pano head to rotate the lens about the "No Parallax Point" there are 5 rows of images stitched. APP did a very good job stitching everything together, as well getting the verticals right, except for the left side of the main building that has a round tower that is much taller than the rest of the image. The right side of the building the verticals are right on, but when I try to correct for the much taller left side in PS, then the right is off.
In APP it should be able to handle this with out any trouble, although, I haven't tried it yet, I'll do that to night. To bad I didn't notice the problem earlier. I'd post a shot of it, but I'm at work.
I thought there was a way to somehow import the edit settings from the first image in PS to the other, or possibly the other way around, the second image is the same, but the pixels will have changed ever so much on the left side, so I think you are right.

Have the new and old image open and side by side in PS. The drag each adjustment layer, one by one, from the old file to the new. Hold the shift key down while doing so to register the layers.
Should work fine unless your adjustment layers have masks and your new file has different pixel dimensions than the old, In which case you would have to adjust your masks to fit.

First make both files the same pixel size. Then you can drag all the layers into a layer group and then drag that layer group onto the new document, hold shift. Then if you need to transform the layer masks then you can do it all at once by transforming the layer group. Hope this makes sense long day on set.

Nice. Much more efficient than one at a time.
