[IvIsee] : A 3D-Model viewr, supports 8 kinds model format , and presents 7 kinds stereo display.
Bug Report : [lsi@…]
===================================================================================================
<1>. Istallation Notes
===================================================================================================
Only for Binary Files :
(1) Unzip "IvIsee2.0.RC_1.zip" into your home directory
(2) If you are using "Linux" ==> Copy the "IvIsee/Binary/Linux?" directory to your home directory , command following
cp -R ./IvIsee/Binary/Linux? ~/IvIsee
(3) If you are using "Windows" ==> Copy the "IvIsee\Binary\Win32" entire directory to "C:\" or anywhere you preferred , command following
(4) Verify all files in "~/IvIsee" for "Linux" or "C:\IvIsee\" in "Windows"
PS : Make sure "CONFIG" directory should be under "IvIsee" directory or your "HOME Directory" , like this
./IvIsee?/CONFIG
*
*
===================================================================================================
<2>. Setup Notes
===================================================================================================
Set "IvIsee_DIR" into the environment variable according your istallation path in Step <1> :
(1) If you are using "Linux" (with sh or bash) ==> Append following lines into your "~/.profile"
# =================================================================================================
# IvIsee Setting #
export IvIsee_DIR="${HOME}/IvIsee"
if [ -z "$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" ] ; then
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${IvIsee_DIR}/LD_LIBRARY"
else
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:${IvIsee_DIR}/LD_LIBRARY"
fi
if [ -z "$PATH" ] ; then
export PATH="${IvIsee_DIR}"
else
export PATH="${PATH}:${IvIsee_DIR}"
fi
# =================================================================================================
And then re-source the "~/.profile" file or logout and then re-login again to effect all setting
(2) If you are using "Linux" (with csh or tcsh) ==> Append following lines into your "~/.cshrc"
# =================================================================================================
# IvIsee Setting #
setenv IvIsee_DIR "${HOME}/IvIsee"
if (! $?LD_LIBRARY_PATH) then
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "${IvIsee_DIR}/LD_LIBRARY"
else
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:${IvIsee_DIR}/LD_LIBRARY"
endif
if (! $?PATH) then
setenv PATH "${IvIsee_DIR}"
else
setenv PATH "${PATH}:${IvIsee_DIR}"
endif
# =================================================================================================
And then re-source the "~/.cshrc" file or logout and then re-login again to effect all setting
(3) If you are using "Windows" ==> Append following lines into your "C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT"
# =================================================================================================
set IvIsee_DIR=C:\IvIsee
set PATH=%PATH%;%IvIsee_DIR%
# =================================================================================================
And then reboot your machine to effect all setting
PS: If you are using "Window2000/XP" , you can also register your "IvIsee_DIR" and "PATH" variables in [Control Panel] -> [System] -> [Advanced] -> [Environment Variables] -> [System Variables]
# =================================================================================================
IvIsee_DIR ==> C:\IvIsee
PATH ==> %PATH%;%IvIsee_DIR%
# =================================================================================================
And then the setting will be effect immediately

<3>. Usage Notes
===================================================================================================
How to Use IvIsee :
(1) "Command-Line Mode"
<< 3.0.RC_1 -- Developed by "Kevin, NCHC, Taiwan" >>
Usage : ivisee <DataFile?> [StereoType?(0-6)] [{RenderWindowWidth?} {RenderWindowHeight?}] [FullScreenMode?(true|false)] [HideCursorMode?(true|false)]
[DataFile?] :
<2D Image>
a => .bmp
b => .jpg
c => .pbm
d => .pgm
e => .ppm
f => .tif
g => .dcm
<3D Model>
a => .3ds
b => .g
c => .cdi
d => .cyb
e => .dem
f => .obj
g => .stl
h => .tri
i => .vtk (default)
j => .wrl
[StereoType?] :
0 => Mono (default)
1 => CrystalEyes?
2 => RedBlue?
3 => Interlaced
4 => Dresden
5 => LeftEye?
6 => RightEye?
Example_1 : ./IvIsee? skin.vtk
Example_2 : ./IvIsee? skin.vtk 1
Example_3 : ./IvIsee? skin.vtk 0 800 600
Example_3 : ./IvIsee? skin.vtk 0 1024 768 true true
(2) "GUI & File-Association MODE"
- Makesure you are in an windows desktop environment now (such as MS-Windows , KDE , Gnome ...etc)
- Move your mouse to focus on a 3D models which any kind of IvIsee supported
- Press mouse right button , then find and choose "IvIsee" to open it (rember to enable the "Always Use This Program to Open..." checkbox)

<4>. Configuration Notes
===================================================================================================
You can change all IvIsee initial statements via tune the parameters in "CONFIG/IvIsee.attr" manually :
# [ IvI -- Attribute Define File ]
#
# << Hints & Notes >>
#
# 1. The "DataType?" of every filed could be referenced in "[ IvI -- Attribute Config File ]"
#
# 2. "_" means "NULL" , also equals to "Empty Value"
#
# 3. "(Read Only)" means "I suggest you don't modify it anymore"
