Automatic Crop Select this check box if you want to automatically crop the left- and

the plug-in's adjustments.

Floating windows Drag the Left or Right sliders as needed to correct for screen-edge

If your stereoscopic 3D project contains objects that cross the screen
edge and appear in front of the screen, users will see conflicting
depth cues: the 3D effect tells the user's eyes that an object should
appear in front of the screen, but the edge of the screen contradicts
the screen depth.
For example, in the following example, dragging the Left slider
masks the left edge of the frame to prevent the kayak from crossing
the edge of the screen.
Tips:
n 3D depth adjustment is a complex process and is out of the scope of this document. For more
information, please review a reference such as 3D Movie Making: Stereoscopic Digital Cinema
from Script to Screen by Bernard Mendiburu.
n When you're working with a stereoscopic 3D project, a separate check box is displayed in the
Video FX window for the left- and right-eye video: . By limiting an
effect to the left or right eye only, you can use multiple instances of a plug-in with different
settings for each eye.
