Select the element whose remote control buttons you want to set. You can select the
element in the Outline tab, the Graphical tab, or use the pop-up menu in the appropriate
editor.

In the Inspector, open the pop-up menu for the button to be set, then choose the function
to link to. All elements currently set in the project are available to be linked to.

The remote control settings are in different Inspector locations for different elements:

Disc Inspector: The commonly used remote control settings (Title, Menu, and Return)

are in the General tab. The Advanced tab contains the settings that are not often used
(Angle, Chapter, Audio, and Subtitle).

Track, Story, and Marker Inspectors: All remote control settings are in their General tabs.

Slideshow and Story Marker Inspectors: All remote control settings are in its main area

(there are no tabs).

Menu Inspector: Its only remote control setting (Return) is in its Menu tab.

Outline tab or click an empty area in the Graphical tab.

To see the remote control buttons for a single element: Select that element in the Outline

tab, the Graphical tab, or use the pop-up menu in the appropriate editor.

Use the View pop-up menu in the Connections tab to control which of the remote buttons
are visible:

Basic: Shows the disc’s title button, and the track’s, story’s, and slideshow’s menu

buttons.

Advanced: Shows all possible remote buttons.
