While running Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk I decided to forgo drawing the Wave Echo caves and put the map on the TV in my game room via iPad screen share to my Apple TV box.

I had the map up in Affinity Designer 2 so I could cover undiscovered parts of the map. But no matter what I did I could not get the screen to zoom in on any part of the map image, it only showed the full map on the screen.

I know I can purchase the module on roll20, or I can put the map in and draw on it to hide sections. But I am hoping for something more on the fly. I would prefer to use my iPad rather than my MacBook since it is more portable if possible.

Display mirroring with airplay?

That is what I did, but it would not let me zoom in the map it only showed the map at full size.
