CCP4bb, Some graphics news: Full operating-system support for stereo 3D has at last been restored on Mac OS X Leopard, but NOT in Leopard's X11 just yet (the Xquartz open-source community will hopefully soon remedy this...).
While today's fix is great for native Mac OpenGL applications like MacPyMOL, my fear is that other critical applications will still be unable to support stereo 3D under Leopard because of a reliance upon X11/GLX for OpenGL. While Qt-based programs may now work fine in stereo 3D, X11-based apps such as open-source PyMOL are definitely still mono 3D-only under Leopard 10.5.5. Perhaps some of the other software developers can chime in soon regarding their support for stereo 3D under Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.5? At the very least, I am thinking of: ccp4mg, O, coot, and VIDA/AFITT, as well as perhaps Chimera, VMD, and MOE. Apologies if I left out something important! Along those lines, what other "go to" molecular graphics apps are crystallographers using on Macs these days? In other words, who else should we/Apple lean on? Also, do crystallographers still consider stereo 3D to be a high-priority or must-have feature in a graphics workstation? Cheers, Warren [EMAIL PROTECTED]
