This is the same issue I had when you connected it at the Firefox release

The interface should only show when you hold a key or press the mouse
button. But then again, i think most of these parameters should be
accessible by Midi and/or DMX signals. The interface is nice, but not useful
during a VJ session without a video mixer... can't expect me to show the
interface to the audience ;-)

In any great product, the interface should be invisible (integrated or part
of the process).
