      Maybe a simple question .....

      i would like to merge, and not add, multiple video layers (more than 20) in one, similar to photoshop.
      I am not sure, it looks like there is a limit of 20 layers at the projectors.
      perhaps there is other simple solution in stead of using the projectors
      any proposle is more than welcome

        Does 20 Player-Projector patch work smooth?

          maybe i didn't described well enough ...  i would like to stack live animated objects like lines or other circles, like a painting one stroke over the next. I am generating the lines/objects step by step and freezing them for the projector in different layers.

          So here I'm limited by the numbers of layer. ... the system is running with 8 projectors right now. 
          i haven't different idea or approach .....

            You are not limited by the layer settings. Isadora processes everything from left to right and top to bottom. That means the top right "movie player/projector" will be layered underneath the "movie player/projector" on the right side or underneath of it.

            See attached image, two screenshot showing that only changing the order gives you a different result. Both projectors are set to layer 0. Though if you change the physical order you have to leave the scene and re-enter to see the changes. Using the layer settings and the order of the actors gives you unlimited possiblities imho.

              thanks ... i wasn't aware of that, this will help.  Does this mean, there is no other approach for merging layers?

                  yes, i tried this with addmax/addovr.  The Mixer is adding the line crossing to max RGB /white. I would like to keep the last color overall and use the layer of the projectors.

                    Hello,

                    Understanding more or less what you want, I will give a try to Processing via Syphon, You can create and delete as many lines, circle, rectangle you want and, via OSC, you can move it, change color etc.
                    I made a very quick and dirty sample, hope that works for you…

                      i am generating the lines via sound, starting, ending and bended form (non linear).

                      this is my line-generator. i hope this helps in understanding
                       the 3d approach i haven't tried and no cue for the bended form.
                      The charm on the 3 d approach is the option for further processing
