DM Map Window
The DM Map window is a separate window showing the battle map while the main window stays on the campaign dashboard for reference. Clicking Play on a module (campaign dashboard Modules tab, or the modules table on the campaign landing page) opens it.

- Zoom, reset view, Add PCs, Reveal Map, Print
- Fog, LOS, ambient light, and debug overlay toggles (UVTT maps)
- Token drag, selection, context menu, vision settings
- Trap and POI markers with visibility toggles
See Play Mode for the full toolbar and token control reference.
Status Bar
Shows map name, pixel dimensions, current pan offset, and Player Display connection state.
Dashboard Link
Double-clicking a token, trap, or POI in the DM Map window emits a focus event to the main window, which selects the corresponding monster, NPC, PC, trap, or POI in the campaign dashboard.
