This tool is meant to be used in conjunction with a table TV for tabletop games like D&D, Pathfinder and DSA. It shows a fullscreen image on the table TV, that is easily controlled by a mini version on the preview screen. A masking feature also allows for hidden areas on the map.

You can follow the development on Github.

Shift + Page-Up / Page-Down: Scale the View Rectangle [red]

Hint The yellow dots surrounding the red view rectangle represent a grid of 1 inch or 2,54mm to aid correct scaling without the need of watching the table TV. This feature doesn't work for every setup, as some drivers don't support reading out the actual monitor size.

How to Start the Executable

The easy way
