(No Shift Anaglyph)


The method "No Shift" is a method to reduce the shift dimension in anaglyphs.

The main purpose is to create images that are visible in two ways. With the glasses they show in 3D while without glasses they appear as normal images.

Clearly the Shift colour cannot be removed from the whole image but generally it can be removed from the main subjects or from the subjects shown in the first level.

In the gallery linked below there are many examples created with the method "No Shift".

Example images 2D>3D No Shift by 3D Gugle

To begin turn an image into an anaglyph using the "Direct Anaglyph" LAB. During the conversion do not exaggerate the depth.

After completing the anaglyph you move the shift using the menus "<" and ">“ so that the left part of the main subject is perfectly lined up.

After the conversion After the center of the lef

After the alignment close the Direct Anaglyph LAB and save the new anaglyph.

From the menu file select "Open Stereo Pairs" and then open the same image twice: once as the left image and once as the right image.

Now click on the button "Go Anaglyph".

In the Anaglyph dialogue box with the scrollbars "Zoom X" and "Red X" you resize and move the red colour until the red shift results in a minimum visibility.

"OK" to go out from the Anaglyph LAB.

Now you continue the job in the "Direct Anaglyph" LAB.

After move and zoom

The next step consists of using the mouse to re-enter the parts that project (when seen with the glasses)- in our example the pillow.

Before performing this operation you have to measure how much red Shift to do.

Click on the menu "<-" until the red is aligned with the right part of the pillow. The value of shift is written in the menu: "P = ".

In our case the value is -5.
Having measured the value before continuing you press "
Restart
" from the menu: "Option".

With the menu "+>" you move to the value +5 and then with the mouse you work only on the area that sticks out and not in all parts.

Now you move to the value "P = 0" using the menu: "
<-
".
At this point, with the same but opposite procedure, you remove with the mouse all of the cyan parts where the colour is excessive or annoying.

The result is this.

Go out from Direct Anagliph and open the "Paint" LAB 
To open "Paint" LAB from the menu "Image", select "Special Functions" and then "Paint"

In the menu "Mode" select "Red".
This option allows you to operate only on the colour of Shift, red in this case, without modifying the other colours.

Cancel with the mouse the parts of image that require work.

Particularly remove the red that is in the dark parts. Naturally before finalising the work view the result with the glasses.

On completion of the work with the red colour, you act on the complementary colours changing the method of "Paint"
From the menu "Mode" select "
Cyan" and continue to clean and retouch.

If necessary retouch also with the mode "All Colours".

At this point return to Direct Anaglyph to correct the depth in general and in the details.

Immage "No Shift" final result
