[vtkusers] Stereo rendering

[Øyvind Knudsen]

Hi.

Thanks for the swift response. Sadly your suggestion didn't seem to work. The only thing happening when toggling between stereo/non stereo mode is that the actors are skewed to the side (the same amount of degrees as the current EyeAngle of the active vtkCamera I think). This skew is a good sign that VTK is trying to set up stereo, but I don't know what to do to make the attempt successful. Any suggestions?
