Adding Buttons to Your Menu
Once you have set your background and overlay, you are ready to start adding buttons
to your menu.
You can add buttons either by creating active areas in the overlay or by dragging shapes
to the Menu Editor. You can then set each button’s properties, such as what the button
jumps to when activated and how to navigate from it when using the DVD player’s remote
control.
The number of buttons a menu can have depends on the DVD standard and its display
mode.
