Stereo The stereo command sets the current stereo mode. Stereo mode is a convenient way to "see" 3D with two images from slightly different angles. There are corresponding stereo* and stereo_mode settings which are controlled by the stereo command, so you don't need to set them directly.* Usage stereo [ toggle ] Valid values for the toggle argument are: on, swap, off, quadbuffer, crosseye, walleye, geowall, sidebyside, byrow, bycolumn, checkerboard, custom, anaglyph, dynamic, clonedynamic (see also stereo_mode) Example of 1ESR shown in cross-eyed stereo Example fetch 1ESR, async=0 as cartoon set cartoon_smooth_loops spectrum bg white stereo crosseye See Also stereo_mode stereo_angle stereo_shift stereo_ray
