unable to execute SmartStitch on Mac

[wander3010]

hello, I'm unable to execute SmartStitch on MacBook even though I followed the instructions. here's the error message I encountered in the command prompt.

wander@Wanders-MacBook-Pro smartstitch-2.3.1 % python smartstitchgui.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "smartstitchgui.py", line 9, in <module>
    import SmartStitchCore as ssc
  File "/Users/wander/Documents/SmartStitch-2.3.1/SmartStitchCore.py", line 142
    image.save(new_folder + '/' + str(f'{imageIndex:02}') + outputformat, quality=100)
                                                       ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

---

able to help? thank you! (I used SmartStitch on windows too and it's very easy to use, but that's an old laptop and its prone to hanging on me so I would want to install on mac too. many thanks!

Sadly I never tested it on a mac myself, but i will find a friend and look for a solution, but expect to wait a bit.

I never checked this but SmartStitch doesnt run on 3.10, but it will urn on 3.9. I would downgrade.

The new version I am working on the dev branch is running 3.10,2, so this issue should be solved, and hopefully I will also move to QT for the frontend, so the experience for mac users will drastically change

• I will keep this issue open until the new version is ready and out.

V3 is now officially out if the problem still exists with it, please open a new issue
