Re: [COOT] Zalman & Coot

2009-08-07 Thread Bernhard Lohkamp
You can use the command:

(set-hardware-stereo-angle-factor -1)

to invert the image too. I shall make some buttons for this (and the
Zalman stereo too).
Additionally I am thinking of querying the window position and size to
automatically set this.
Not sure when I'll get to this though (other issues more burning
currently)...

In general, if the image is inverted, just move the window up or down 1
pixel.

Has anyone noticed that the 3D image in coot is inverted?  Things that are in 
the front on 
the mono image are switched to the back in the Zalman mode image.
PyMOL has an option to flip the polarization of the image.  Is there a similar 
command for 
coot?  Or is there a monitor setting that anyone has figured out?

Thanks
James

Coot will only work with Zalman with revision 2134+

The latest in fink is 2172.  I'll make a new intel stand-alone if that 
helps.

Dear Jürgen:

I've been using the DVI cable provided and full resolution (I had to  
set this manually in display preferences).  I assume what works with  
my mini and my airbook would also work with a macbook pro.  I haven't  
tried the VGA option, but assume that would work too.


One thing I discovered is it doesn't work if you have display  
mirroring on.  If that is the case, turn it off in display  
preferences, and hopefully it will then work.


If not, try tilting the screen up or down a little bit (or move your  
head relative to the screen).


I went through a bit of frustration but it was all due to user error  
on my part.


Is the DVI cable just dead?

Did you issue the command in coot to start the stereo specific to  
Zalman mode?


Try the latest PyMOL too.  You have to rename it MacPyMOLZalman.app  
first.  Then open it, and if it isn't already in stereo, just hit the  
"stereo" menu item.


Depending on the positioning of the window, and number of pixels, you  
can have the image reversed, so check to see if that is happening, as  
it ruins the 3D effect.


Good luck.  Hope it is working for you soon.

Bill

Hi Bill,

I have received my two Zalmans yesterday and I wanted to try them  
out today. I don't seem to have the right settings I assume as I get  
a double vision image e.g. a loop that is supposed to be in the back  
in 3d splits up and you can see two lines (that's as Calpha). I have  
played with the resolution of the monitor to decrease it to 768x1024  
but the two lines still persist.
I'm using the latest  15" MacBookPro via MiniDisplayport to VGA as  
the DVI does not seem to work with the cable provided by Zalman I  
assume.


My coot is
0.6-pre-1 rev 2037

I turned of spaces and enabled mirroring to keep it simple but I'm  
not quite happy right now. I have not yet tried Pymol as my version  
does not support the Zalman monitors.


Any suggestions what I can try to get rid of the double lines ?

Thanks,

Jürgen
