When chimera does red-cyan or green-magenta anaglyph stereo, it limits the colors for each eye to one and two of the three colors that are emitted by the monitor (red and green/blue or green and red/blue respectively).   Changing the red would mean changing the monitor, and that is unlikely to help.  It is easier to change the color filters in your glasses.  The wikipedia article on anaglyph 3D mentions there are higher quality red-cyan glasses that should help -- the section on "Compensating focus diopter glasses for red-cyan method" says that glasses that are labelled "www.anachrome" are the ones to get.     HTH,     Greg On 6/10/2019 4:17 PM, Tweten, Rodney K.

We are displaying our protein structures on a large TV in the Red-Cyan stereo view, which works pretty good for 3D viewing (except the required loss of specific colors). We tend to see a bit of ghosting of the red structure, which I suspect is that the red color  lens of the Red-Cyan glasses we have (we’ve tried a few with the same results) is not quite matched to that being used by Chimera in its Red-Cyan stereo view. I was wondering if there is any way the user could tweak the red color being used by chimera in this stereo view to more closely match that of the glasses (assuming that this is responsible for the ghosting of the red structure). Thanks!
