GUI Reference Checkbox for Yaw

[ashalota]

Can you please explain what the checkbox is under the Reference panel and for Yaw and why it has a checkbox next to it?

Sometimes it is 'unchecked', which seems to cause the Yaw value to be ignored during photo alignment. Is there a pattern for when photos are loaded checked/unchecked, and is there a way to verify this in the python API?

Hello ashalota,

This check box enables or disables the utilization of the camera orientation angles for the referencing/optimization operations.

To enable or disable this flag via Python API use the following Boolean flag:

Code: [Select]

camera.reference.rotation_enabled

Is there any reason I would not want to use this data if I have provided it?

I can't figure out when it becomes checked/not checked.

Normally it was always checked, only recently when I move cameras into a new chunk, I see that it is unchecked by default.
