Hi, Finally we got everything works!
The blurry issue is caused by the DVI cable. It took me quite a while to figure it out. The monitor Asus VG236h need a Dual link DVI cable. Unfortunately I was using a Single Link DVI cable when I test stereo 3D in ParaView.
Thanks everyone's help. Cheers, Gao On 2016-10-12 01:23 PM, Cory Quammen wrote:

I didn't pay attention on the refresh rate because the 3D demoworks, so I assumed the monitor is not the problem. It turned out that IS the problem.Also, I need to change the 120Hz on both the Quadro card and the monitor (both default to 60Hz). Now I am having a different issue: the display became blurry, although the 3D works. All the graphic elements are blurry except the 3D object. Not sure what cause this.Do you mean blurry, as in the text in the GUI is hard to read, or do you mean darker? I find the monitor to appear darker as half the time the monitor is blocked by the active shutter glasses.I also noticed on the Windows 10, the monitor is recognized as "Generic PnP monitor" and use a MS driver. I searched and didn't find a driver for my Asus VG236H.Hmm, our Asus monitor is recognized in the control panel. I'm not sure about where you can get a driver for it other than the Asus web site.Thank you very much.You are welcome! And thank you for providing another data point that shows ParaView in use with stereo.Thanks, Cory Gao On 2016-10-12 11:54 AM, Cory Quammen wrote:Gao, No, there isn't any setting needed in ParaView beyond the command-line arguments that you are already providing. One important thing, though: Make sure your screen refresh rate is set to 120 Hz or higher. - Cory On Wed, Oct 12, 2016 at 1:55 PM, Gao <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi Cory, I just tried "Onboard DIN connector (with NVIDIA 3D ...)" and it's still not showing 3D stereo. My system is a Dell Precision workstation come with a Quadro 4000 video card (No DIN connection). The demo 3D test from Nvidia Control Panel works fine so I think the driver is loaded correctly. I just installed the new Paraview 5.2 RC1 and it does the same: No 3D but flickering. I also tried other modes and none of them works. Is there any special setting I need config in ParaView? Thanks for the help. Gao On 2016-10-12 08:51 AM, Cory Quammen wrote:Hi Gao, Attached is an image of the relevant NVIDIA Control Panel settings for our working ParaView stereo display setup. It looks like the main change from your setup is to change "Stereo - Display Mode" to "Onboard DIN connector (with NVIDIA 3D ...)". For your reference, our system runs Windows 10 and has a Quadro M5000 and an ASUS VG248QE 24-inch Full HD display. We did not need the optional 3-pin DIN connector port that seems almost impossible to buy anywhere.

I don't know what is the problem. I got NVIDIA 3D VISION 2 glasses and set it up on my Windows 10 PC. Installed the driver for the QUADRO 4000 card. Tested with the Nvidia Control Panel (version 8.1.1030.0) and the I can see the 3D demo through the glasses. Then I downloaded a sample vtk file from here: http://www.subdude-site.com/WebPages_Local/RefInfo/Computer/Linux/LinuxGuidesByBlaze/apps3Dtools/3D_viewers-converters/3Dtestfiles/vtk/rbc_001.vtk <http://www.subdude-site.com/WebPages_Local/RefInfo/Computer/Linux/LinuxGuidesByBlaze/apps3Dtools/3D_viewers-converters/3Dtestfiles/vtk/rbc_001.vtk> I changed some setting on Nvidia Control Panel: Manage 3D setting: Stereo - Display mode : Generic active stereo (with NVIDIA 3D Vision) Stereo -Enable: On Stereo -Swap eyes: Off Now I run paraview with： paraview.exe --stereo --stereo-type="Crystal Eyes" Then I open the vtk file I downloaded. I don't see 3D, and the image is flickering. But the emitter green light is ON. Can someone help me to get this 3D display going? Thanks.
