Is it possible to create a stereo view image from a single pdf image. I have colored different segments of the original pdf image. Thanks A G Szabo agszabo@outlook.com<mailto:agszabo@outlook.com>
Hi Arthur, No, certainly not with Chimera, if you really meant a PDF file. If you meant a structure that is open in Chimera (like from a PDB file), yes you can save it as a stereo image. The File… Save Image dialog has “Image type” near the lower right with choices including: same as screen stereo pair wall-eye stereo pair You can either choose one of those “stereo pair” options, or make the screen show stereo (e.g. with “stereo” command ) and choose “same as screen”. I hope this helps, Elaine ---------- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Computer Graphics Lab (Chimera team) and Babbitt Lab Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco

Elaine I followed your suggestions and saved the image of a structure as a wall-eye stereo pair and a jpeg file. I then opened the Jpeg file and there are two images of the structure and their centers are separated by about 8 inches (200 cm). How do I get the separation that will permit a stereo pair on a printed page that provides a 3D image as appears in many articles on structures. Thanks Arthur G.

Hi Arthur, Maybe you chose “stereo JPEG” in the Image Save dialog? Those “stereo JPEG” and “stereo PNG” files are interpreted by special 3D viewing programs like JPSViewer. For your purposes, instead use command “stereo wall” … then the Chimera graphics window should look like what you want, and you would choose “Image type: same as screen” in the Image Save dialog. Command “stereo mono” will put the view back to normal. I hope this helps, Elaine
