Pano Creation Issue

Thank you for the two replies. I suspected that Bridge and LR stripped out my edits when I chose the panorama setting. Appreciate that you could ratify that I wasn't imagining that behavior. But I was always able to recreate the edits in the rendered panorama. In this case, I was not. Perhaps the attached screenshots with some context can clarify. The first shows the range of correction I was able to acheive with individual edits on each segment of the pano. Note the detail I was able to recover in the highlight area by moving the slider all the way to the left.

The second screenshot (using the original frames without any settings applied) shows the rendered panorama with the highlight slider moved, again, all the way to the left. I barely has any effect. So I could not duplicate the range of correction with a global edit to the panorama as I was able to acheive with edits to the individual photo segments of the pano. In this case, it appears that the tonal range of the combined images was drastically reduced.

The third screenshot shows the result of opening the individual, edited photos in PS, then rendering the pano. I looks like, in this case, that was only way to retain the highlight detail, which wasn't possible in ACR or LR. It would be nice if this particular image could have been done entirely in CR. But I guess in this case, with this particular set of photos, it's probably not possible.
