Yow, good point!  I'm surprise none of us realized this before : )  You
need to change the direction of the light 6 degrees as well.

Try using this sequence to create your stereo pair:

set light=[-0.348,-0.348,-0.870]
ray

turn y,6
set light=[-0.437,-0.348,-0.902]
ray
png image2.png
turn y,-6

Subject: Re: [PyMOL] Stereo pictures, light vector and shadows




I make stereo pictures by making two pictures, with the command "turn y,
6" 
in between.

Now that I am looking into a crevice, I have discovered a problem with
this 
simple method.  When the view is rotated, the light vector moves with
the 
view.  This results in the two pictures having different shadows, thus 
ruining the stereo picture.  I don't want to give up on having shadows.

Has anybody solved this problem?

I am attempting to solve the problem by specifying the light setting
(set 
light = [-0.4, -0.4, -1.0]).
What are the definitions of the light parameters?
