Rename GUI elements
Discussion for the ticket #390 Rename in the GUI paint, mapping, source, destination, dimension
Most of these terms are already explained in https://mapmapteam.github.io/ but here, we want to change those terms in the graphical user interface. Here is the list of terms we want to change and the proposals for each of them.
A Paint is an image or video that we use as a texture to display it in a mapping.
Rename it to: (proposals)
- Media
- Media source
- Texture
- Video file
- Media file reader
In this context, a Paint is still an image or video that we use as a texture to display it in a mapping. But that is specifically for the property of a video player.
Rename it to: (proposals)
- Source
- Media player
- Media source
- Video player
A mapping is a shape in the output window in which a video texture is displayed.
Rename it to: (proposals)
- Layers
This is the shape we select (crop) in the source video texture. That sub-texture can then displayed as a mapping on something in the real world.
Rename it to: (proposals)
- Input
- cropping
- mask
- clipping
- select
- subarea
- subtexture
This is the shape of the final texture that the users will see in the real space.
Rename it to: (proposals)
- Output Preview
This is to fine tune the rectangle mapping, so that the user can turn the rectangle into a mesh that has more control points (vertices) if needed. Also, the position of each vertex can be fine tuned in that property inspector.
Rename it to: (proposals)
- Mesh Warping
