If you have an anaglyphic glasses you can try this option. The model can be set as an anaglyphic image in order to provide a stereoscopic 3D effect, when viewed with 2 color glasses (each lens a chromatically opposite color, usually red and cyan).
Anaglyphic images are made up of two color layers, superimposed. Since the glasses act as red and cyan filters we should be careful with the model's colors. To avoid problems confusing values we will change the contour fill color scale.

  • Select in preferences the contour fill Color map: 3D Anaglyphs.
  • Select View->Advanced viewing settings...
  • Check the Use stereo option.
  • Check the Dynamic update option in order to change the options without the need to click the Apply button.
  • Adjust the eye distance to a value where you can see the 3D effect.

  • This 3D option works best with Perspective enabled. Give it a try.
  • Uncheck the Use stereo option to finish this kind of visualization.
  • Close the window.
  • Select View results->No Results  .
  • Change the view style to Boundaries  for all the layers.
