User Interface

MapMap allows its users to:

* Create and destroy an unlimited amount of mappings. Each mapping is a shape on which a source paint is drawn.
* Color paints can be used as masks.
* Move layers.
* Save the project to a human-readable XML file.

Using the OSC interface
-----------------------
You can control MapMap via a set of OSC messages. OpenSoundControl allows users to send messages to control audio and video software. These messages are transmitted via UDP/IP. This allows one to control multi-projector shows with little efforts.

MapMap listens for incoming OSC messages on the default port 12345.

There is a Processing bridge to MapMap as well as a Toonloop to MapMap.
