Is it possible to install the trial license for PhotoScan-Pro 1.3 Linux on the command line?


Hello MManning,

The activation from the command line can be performed using --activate argument, like in the following example:
Code: [Select]
./photoscan.sh --activate 11111-22222-33333-44444-55555

Having a rather large issue with running this release - no matter what I do, I get GL errors...

2016-10-15 16:54:59 renderer_gl.cpp line 399: drawText() failed, error 1280

^^ this error appears over and over again, and eventually, the program crashes.

Windows 8.1
GTX780
i7 4790k

... and...

Windows Server 2012 R2
(no graphics card)

Any ideas? Is there a way to open the .exe with a "-nogl" option? I'm on Standard.

Hello ricberw,

I suggest to install latest NVidia drivers from their official web-site for your graphic card: http://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

For the second configuration, you need to have some software rendering device, as you only operate PhotoScan Standard via GUI. Probably you need to use Point Cloud view mode as default, to avoid automatic switching to the mesh view modes.

If the problem still exists, please provide the full Console pane output (from the program start-up).

How can I make the point cloud view be the default/not switch away from it?

It seems as though these errors are occurring even when the point cloud view is selected.

Output from the console:

2016-10-18 23:34:49 Agisoft PhotoScan Version: 1.3.0 build 3075 (64 bit)
2016-10-18 23:34:49 OpenGL Vendor: Microsoft Corporation
2016-10-18 23:34:49 OpenGL Renderer: GDI Generic
2016-10-18 23:34:49 OpenGL Version: 1.1.0
2016-10-18 23:34:49 Maximum Texture Size: 1024
2016-10-18 23:34:49 Quad Buffered Stereo: not enabled
2016-10-18 23:34:49 ARB_vertex_buffer_object: not supported
2016-10-18 23:34:49 ARB_texture_non_power_of_two: not supported
2016-10-18 23:34:49 renderer_gl.cpp line 399: drawText() failed, error 1280
2016-10-18 23:34:49 renderer_gl.cpp line 399: drawText() failed, error 1280
2016-10-18 23:34:49 renderer_gl.cpp line 399: drawText() failed, error 1280
2016-10-18 23:34:49 renderer_gl.cpp line 399: drawText() failed, error 1280
2016-10-18 23:34:49 renderer_gl.cpp line 399: drawText() failed, error 1280
(then the drawText() errors show up constantly)

Also included a screenshot of the view with the cameras enabled - if I enable the cameras to be displayed, I get random color blocks showing up on the model view - but if I disable the cameras from view, the random color blocks go away.

As another note, it seems that it only shows drawText() errors when I move the mouse over the model/point cloud view pane.

EDIT: I just turned off "show info" in the "view" menu's show/hide items list, and now my drawText() errors have disappeared! Not sure this will solve the crashing though (since it seems to crash randomly). I'll post again if I see another crash.

Hello ricberw,

Do you have the same issue with the version 1.2 on the computer without discrete graphic card?

The default view can be selected in the General tab of PhotoScan Preferences window.

I see definitely longer texture blending times and textures aren`t that sharp as in 1.2.6 and muddy in places where 1.2.6 gives pretty sharp results.

Hello RouvenMiller,

Can you provide any sample set (images + project file) that can be used for our internal tests? If possible, please send the download link to support@agisoft.com.

In the version 1.3 we have modified Mosaic blending for the texture generation that should have improved the blending quality and minimize visible seams on high zoom level.

No, it does not - I've been using 1.2.6 for a while now, but the issue was not present there (nor was it present in 1.2.5, which I was using prior to 1.2.6).

It seems to be a problem with drawing any type of text on the model view, as showing cameras does it (the camera names/numbers do not show up in 1.3) and trying to "Show Info" e.g. # of points does it.

Yap, send it to your support. Filesize is 1.5gb so I used google drive.

Seams are less but fine detail in higher zooms are eaten up. I use only focus stacked images so seams are minimal nearly zero. 1.2.6 does such a great job. At least for focus stacked shots 1.3 doesn`t do so well.

Hello Alexey,

I work a lot with the Python scripting and I have to say, the new IPython console is really amazing!
I was wondering if there will be, in this version, the possibility of adding a color bar and/or a scale bar with the DEM and the Orthomosaic in index color mode when exporting? Also, now that the index calculator is well established, you should add the color bar to the view (as done for the DEM) when the index transform is enabled.

Ruh roh, my old python scripts that import pyside are now broken...

Importing PySide disabled by QtConsole, which has
already imported an incompatible Qt Binding: pyside2

from PySide2.QtGui import QApplication, QDialog, QLayout, QGridLayout, QMessageBox, QGroupBox, QSpinBox, QSlider, QProgressBar, QDial, QDialogButtonBox, QComboBox, QLabel
 ImportError: cannot import name 'QApplication'
