catalog.
Note: You can apply all Develop module settings to panoramas just as you would apply them to individual images.
Lightroom can create vertical and multirow panoramas. The metadata and boundaries of source images are analyzed
to determine if a horizontal, vertical, or multirow panorama would be appropriate for them.
