Dean, just to be clear -- I was missing something as well -- If you
are using mouse syncing and not script syncing, then you should be
able to send any rotation commands you want to one of the applets and
the other won't respond. No need to turn sync on and off. So you
should be able to rotate the models independently with scripting to
set up the stereo anytime, even with syncing on. Since you are syncing
with the mouse, you don't have to worry about any rotations you would
do with scripting -- they won't be transmitted anyway. You just have
to worry about resets, file loads, and such, where in each case you
will have to make sure both applets load (using script syncing?) and
then rotate one model and not the other. (Yes, you could also do both
-- one one way and the other the other way, but Jmol just rotates the
right-hand one.) The proper angle is 3 degrees (-1.5 and 1.5) for
overlaid stereo. 5 degrees is for side-by-side stereo.

That said, I still think you are asking too much of sync. Stereo
should be absolutely simultaneous projection. There WILL be some
delay, especially for larger structures.

Are you sure you can't have buttons and such below the applet and
still have a good stereo effect with the Jmol stereo command?
