Symscape

You can use SymLab to create a 3D stereoscopic image called an anaglyph for interactive viewing with red/blue glasses.

Anaglyph 3D Stereo Image

Assumptions

• You have downloaded and installed SymLab.

Procedure

1. Start SymLab and do one of the following to obtain a 3D model in the View Window:
   • Read a .sym file into SymLab using File->Open.
   • Import a BRep, STEP, or IGES file into SymLab (e.g., download our open wheel racecar) using File->Import.
   • If you have either the Builder or Professional add-ons, use the geometry creation tools to create a 3D model.
2. Right-click on the background (not on the geometry) of the View Window.
3. Double-click sim in the Select dialog and then select Properties.
4. In the Properties Panel, select Red Blue from the Stereo 3D option, and then click anywhere in the View Window to reveal an anaglyph 3D red/blue interactive image.

To export the anaglyph as an image, such as a JPEG, use the File->Export dialog.
