Previewing Stereoscopic Images

On Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) or higher, you can preview stereo images using FrameCycler.

Flipbooking Stereo Images within FrameCycler

To flipbook stereo images inside FrameCycler:

1.   Select the node whose output you want to preview.
2.   Select Render > FlipbookSelected from the main menu bar.

A dialog opens.

3.   In the frame range field, enter the frame range you want to preview (for example, 1-35 or 1-8 10 12-15).
4.   Using the Views control, select the two views to flipbook. Click OK.

Nuke renders the selected views as a temporary sequence using the frame range and resolution defined in the script’s settings. This may take a few moments.

5.   Once the render is complete, Nuke launches FrameCycler and loads in the temporary sequence. You can play it back and view it using FrameCycler’s media controls. There are a few different options that allow you to select how to display the stereo images. To learn more about them, refer to the documentation provided with FrameCycler.
