BuddySpace Maps 'How-To' Guide
BuddySpace maps use bitmap images as background maps, along with dots superimposed on the maps, which display positions of buddies or their clusters.Maps allow combining of sub-maps using
layers. Each map consists
of several layers. Each layer stands for an independent sub-map. Layers
can be moved and resized to achieve the desired composition. Layer can be defined either directly in map file (inline) or as a reference to other map file. Inline layer contains a bitmap and several buddies.
