On some templates, the menu buttons include thumbnail images of the video to which they are linked. By default,
the thumbnail displays the frame visible at the position of the marker. However, the default frame does not neces-
sarily represent the best frame for a button. In the DVD Marker dialog box, you can change the frame a thumbnail
displays.
In the Timeline panel, move the current-time indicator to the location where you want to set the marker.

Note: The Play button on each main menu template automatically links to the start point of the time ruler. You needn't
place a marker there unless you want it listed in the Scenes menu.

To quickly place a marker, you can drag a marker from the Set DVD Marker button to the desired location in the
time ruler, or right-click in the time ruler and choose the type of marker you want to set at the current time.
3
Type a name for the marker. Keep the name short so that it fits in the menu and doesn't overlap another button.
(You can also adjust the name later, after you've selected the desired template.)

In the Marker Type menu, select the type of marker you want to set.

(Optional) Drag the Thumbnail Offset timecode as necessary to select the image you want displayed in the button
thumbnail in the menu.
When you create the DVD, if you choose a menu with thumbnail images, the image you select will display in the
menu. (This thumbnail is for the menu display only; the video linked to the button starts at the marker location.)
