Ulead DVD Workshop 2 Quick Guide
Click Menu in the Step Panel to create your menu. Menus allow viewers to
navigate through the different chapters and/or videos and select different audio
and subtitle tracks.
After selecting the type of menu, build your menu by dragging and dropping
objects such as images and videos into the Preview Window. Add text objects by
double-clicking on the Preview Window.
Any object added to the menu can act as either decorations or buttons. Buttons are
objects that act as links to the different elements in your menu. To create buttons,
simply drag and drop the item you want the object to link to- either a menu,
chapter or title- to the object.
Note: Dragging and dropping an item from the Chapter List or Content Window to the
Preview Window automatically creates a button.
After creating a button, you can further customize its behavior by creating a
playlist. To create a playlist, select Playlist in either the Button or Text tab
depending on the type of the button.
Drag and drop the items (menu, chapters or titles) you want included in the
button's playlist into the Playlist window then arrange the sequence of the items
or add new items using the available buttons.
Tip when creating menus in a DVD project:
Spice up your menus by using animated backgrounds and buttons. Simply drag-and-drop
video files from the Library into the Preview Window and select Motion Background and
Motion Button in the Menu and Button tabs. You can then preview your motion background
and buttons in real-time by clicking Play in the Navigation Panel.
Create your menu
Create a new menu by
clicking one of the 3
buttons above the
Content Window. You can
select either to create a
blank menu, use a
menu template or use
the Menu Wizard.
Use these buttons to
show/hide button
information, highlight
images, object
boundaries and/or grid
lines.
