To get a stereo diagram you need two images. The left image is rotated +3 degrees and the right image is rotated -3 degrees.

To obtain the same result without the script, use the [[ray]] and the [[png]] command like this:
  
To obtain the left image, type:
 
 
  ray angle=+3
 
  ray angle=+3
 
  png left-image.png
 
  png left-image.png
Likewise, to obtain the right image, type:
 
 
  ray angle=-3
 
  ray angle=-3
 
  png right-image.png
 
  png right-image.png
  
You still use any other [[ray]] based modifications, such as:

  png big-left-image.png

  stereo walleye

import stereo_ray

* [[Stereo_Mode|stereo_mode]]
stereo_ray output, 1000, 600

</syntaxhighlight>
 
This will create to images, one with an L and one with an R suffix.  Just paste the two images next to each other (in some image editing program) and you're done.

This code has been put under version control in the project Pymol-script-repo

This scripts provides the stereo_ray command, which saves two ray traced images in PNG format. The left image is rotated +3 degrees and the right image is rotated -3 degrees.

Note that the end result is almost identical to using "walleye" stereo mode, which might be more convenient and is readily available in PyMOL.

Usage

stereo_ray filename [, width [, height ]]

Example

import stereo_ray 
stereo_ray output, 1000, 600

This will create two images, "output_l.png" and "output_r.png". Just paste the two images next to each other (in some image editing program) and you're done.

Left Image
Right Image
Combined Images


Manually

To obtain the same result without the script, use the ray and the png command like this:

ray angle=+3
png left-image.png
ray angle=-3
png right-image.png

Obtain almost the same result using the stereo command:

stereo walleye
png combined.png, ray=1
