Installation

• Q: I can't download from the FTP site
  A: We just added a new alternative way to download via HTTP that will probably solve your problem. On the download page, beneath the Download button there is a "problems downloading?" link. That link goes to a page that looks similar but says "(HTTP Download)." Try the Download button on that page.
  
• Q: I don't know whether to download the "32-bit" or "64-bit" version of Image Composite Editor
  A: There is a new link below the two download buttons that says "Help: 32-bit or 64-bit" that will explain how to determine whether you're running a 32-bit or 64-bit edition of Windows.

Bugs/Known Issues

  A: This bug is fixed in version 1.1r1 and later of Image Composite Editor. Download the latest version here.

Operation

• Q: What do the different options in the "Camera Motion" combo box mean?
  A: Please refer to this post where ICE Team Member Matt Uyttendaele describes the camera motion models.
  
• Q: What are the command-line options for Image Composite Editor?
  A: Currently the command line is interpreted quite simply:
1. If the command line contains any files of type *.spj (an Image Composite Editor project), the specified project is opened
2. Otherwise the command line is interpreted as a list of source images which are immediately stitched
