Panini version 0.70 released

[Tom Sharpless]

A new version of the Panini pano viewer and perspective tool is
available at https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=241632.

Version 0.7 adds two new features requested by users:

1) Overlay (for Luca Vascon) -- overlays a fixed image,
with adjustable transparency, on the view.  This is
useful for matching the view to a reference such as
a drawing, a painting or another photograph.

2) Recenter (for Peter Gawthrop) -- an alternative
viewing mode, in the Presets menu. The eye point can
be placed anywhere inside the panosphere, and the view
rotates around the eye point instead of the panosphere
center.   This gives views similar to Peter's "recentered
equirectangular projections".

The keyboard and mouse view controls are more rational
and convenient.  Specifically:
-- There are view menu items and keyboard shortcuts for
   Eye X and Y shifts and the "framing" shifts.
-- Shift right mouse now controls Eye X and Y, and the
   less useful hFov/vFov are now Shift left+right mouse.
Look in the View menu and Help/Mouse modes for details.

Two minor Mac bugs have (probably) been fixed:
-- Saved view file names should no longer need an explicit suffix, the
default ".jpg" is now added if you don't give one (".tif" and ".png"
are supported too).
-- The initial window should no longer be underneath the Mac menu bar.

The Mac binary should be up soon.

Enjoy!   -- Tom

Great! So the "this release is last release of Panini in its current
form" plan is no longer valid? :)

Was not valid.  May be valid now :->

I did it because Peter Gawthrop asked for recentering, and it seemed
so easy to add that I had not the heart to refuse...

Best, Tom
