Line by Line: An interlaced mode where each eye is displayed on alternating lines.
The thickness of the lines as displayed in the GUI viewer depends on
how zoomed in you are.
Checkerboard: Displays both eyes via an alternating checkerboard pattern. This
is an excellent mode for identifying individual regions of color or
geometry variation within a 3D shot.
Anaglyph (B/W): Each eye is desaturated and superimposed via Red/Cyan anaglyph
to show the disparity between both eyes in different regions of the
image. Left-eye divergence is red, and right eye divergence is cyan.
Regions of alignment between both eyes appear grayscale.
Anaglyph modes are useful for evaluating the geometric differences
between both eyes, as well as for identifying the point of convergence
(where both eyes align most perfectly) that places a region within
the image at center-screen depth, with regions of greater disparity
projecting farther forward and backward from that point (seen as a
greater separation between the red and cyan-colored eyes).
Red/cyan color-coding also identifies the direction of projection. For
any given feature, disparity such that red is to the right and cyan is
to the left indicates backward projection. Red to the left and cyan to
the right indicates forward projection.
Anaglyph (Color): Similar to Anaglyph (B/W), except that regions of close alignment
are shown in full color. Incidentally, both anaglyph modes can be
previewed on ordinary displays using old-fashioned red/cyan
anaglyph glasses, to provide that 1950’s retro experience.
Difference: Superimposes grayscale versions of both eyes using the difference
composite mode. Corresponding left/right eye pixels that are
perfectly aligned appear black, while pixels with disparity appear
white. This mode is extremely useful for evaluating geometric
differences between both eyes, as well as for identifying the point
of convergence, without the distraction of color that the anaglyph
modes present.
None: Only displays the eye corresponding to the currently selected
session. When “Enable dual SDI 3D monitoring” is turned on in the
Settings tab of the Config page, each eye remains output to each
HD-SDI channel.
4: To turn stereo display off, right-click in the Viewer, and choose “Display Both Eyes For
3D” from the contextual menu again.
The “Apply 3D Mesh Display...” and “3D Display Options” settings don’t change when
stereo display is toggled on and off.
