Re: [COOT] Stereo projection with Coot

Paul,

Yes, the images appear "inside-out" or "back to front". I think we are talking 
about the same thing. It has to do with the images being retarded by one frame 
due to some latencies in the projector, which creates this out-of-sync 
condition. They mention this on their website. 
I'll test the solution you mentioned once I get a chance. 

Carsten

I don't really understand - do you mean simply that the object is back 
to front? (ie. the front clipping plane is at the back?)  If so I would try:

(set-hardware-stereo-angle-factor -1.2)

(something negative anyway).

Paul.

Yep it does. On linux there may be issues, because the drivers may or may not 
support swap-eyes. The problem is that the images are out of sync with the 
glasses, or to be more precise, the left image is displayed when the right 
shutter on the glasses is open. That was the case with the version we are 
having, not sure if the latest projector is better. This is not a problem if 
the app allows you to swap eyes, like Pymol. I don't think coot has that

Does anyone know if Coot will work with the DepthQ 3D projector 
(www.depthq.com) and 
an appropriate NVIDIA graphics card, such as the FX3700?
