[chimera-dev] setting stereo viewing parameters

[Tom Goddard]

Hi Matt,

  I just added options to the set command for eyeSeparation, screenDistance and screenWidth, in tonight's daily build.  Before those couldn't even be set by command.  You could animate a depth of field change using the perframe command, for example,

	perframe "set eyeSeparation $1" range 50,10 frames 100

to vary eye separation from 50 millimeters to 10 millimeters over 100 frames.

  I don't expect to add these parameters to views saved with savepos in Chimera 1 because all hands are working on Chimera 2.  Maybe we can get that into Chimera 2.

	Tom
