Talk:Orthoscopic

Add topic
From PyMOL Wiki

I found a nice example where the effect of perspective is strong and exchanged the figures. --Karo 09:48, 8 October 2010 (UTC)


Is this statement correct?

[edit]

"Turning on orthoscopic rendering improves the rendering speed by a factor of 2x-4x"

It sounds counterintuitive and appears to contradict the statement following it. Should this read "Turning OFF orthoscopic ..."?

[edit]

Actually, orthoscopic ON means field of view off. Field of view is "perspective" and rendering in a perspective field used to slow rendering down by about 4x. That statement was written a while ago. Maybe things have changed.

Ironically, I read that last night and did a double-take, myself.
