I made a user actor that allows the user to feather the edges of any Izzymap shape.

This is great for projection-mapping on organic shapes, when you don't want a sharp edge.

In order for the actor to work you need to setup a virtual stage first. Please read the comments inside of the user actor for instructions.

The technique is based on @DusX 's technique described in this thread: https://community.troikatronix...

This is a problem as old as the trade with both windows mac. Hardware EDID emulators has always been the solution and I personally will never do an installation without them.

Then there are hardware EDID emulators which do the same Job, if there is no software solution. As they are connected straight to the Computer, they might be more reliable in the long run, than the power up procedure, told above.

There is some weirdness. When I add user input actors for intensity and active, they sometimes default to "0" or "1" no matter what I do. Also, the order that the user input boxes appear in the scene editor seems to be pretty arbitrary.

@mark i think there s also a pb on the zoom if thé output point goes beyond the workplace limit, zooming out doesn t allow to catch the handle back...

@michel Great, thanks just tried it out! Thank you for the fast reply!

@woland thank you!

@Kathmandale 

Thanks for the pointers, insight and knowledge. All very helpful and good information to digest.

I downloaded the videos off a list from youtube ( copyright is in place) and the exhibition is part of public facing element on vaccines. The content was existing videos given with consent for the project. I am playing about 12 videos on a loop and all was fine till I realised the designer had put a rounded rectangle in place.....

I take you points re warping. I will follow your guides ref re-using the mask directly and see how I get on. All the scene are set up with a user actor so I can trial it quickly enough.

Again, many thanks for all the advice.
