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.

The map area embeds the DM map viewer (documented in Play Mode), with these controls:

  • 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.

Shows map name, pixel dimensions, current pan offset, and Player Display connection state.

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.
