No readme? I can't see any xml setup in the dropdown. Copied xmls in the software folder, the software itself on screensetup folder... no luck.

It reads the screen setups for me, but outputs a blank svg for a screen with 7 slices
Also, after trying 9-10 times it stops exporting "error while exporting masks"

Aww. It exports only masks at this time, I'll try to make slice export, based on your example. Slice export is harder because of wrapping.

Just updated tool, links are the same. Now it exports slices, polygons (if you want) and masks for each output.

By default it looks into Documents/Resolume Arena 5/presets/screensetup, but I added ability to load your xml from any place, hope it helps.
Also it doesn't work with R4.

Now it exports all your slices, but you see all green field. Check it into Inkscape or other vector editor.

I'm a bit curious as to why you choose to export the output transformation coordinates as opposed to the input selection coordinates.
I'm assuming you'd use this export to create new content to fit your mapping right? Wouldn't that content then be warped again by the output transformation?

Quote from inspiration theme: "I'd like to request a feature that allows users to export output masks and slices to .eps or layered .ai files."
I don't use input transformation, because screen preset doesn't contain information about composition. Of course, I can add ability to export input transformation too.
In inspiration theme, topic starter just wanted to export masks, as for me, all content made before show, and it's no needing at exporting something at all.

Check the xml tag <InputSize>, the tag with attribute name "0:1" is the most recently used comp size for that screensetup.
