Options Tab
You can select from among four options:
Show numeric labels at Timeline markers -
This option makes it easier to assign Links and Timeline DVD Markers.
Use colors for DVD Menus and related markers in Timeline -
Activating this option is especially useful if you are working with more than one DVD menu. The
Links are then assigned more clearly to their menus (See also “Several Different DVD Menuson
page 926.).
Edit label if Link is dropped on target -
Select this option only if you assign Links using drag and drop. As soon as you drop the Link, a text
box opens in which you can specify a name. Then press
ENTER.
Auto seek Sequence to selected Link -
This option synchronizes the Playline. In other words, click a Link in the list or click a menu option
and the Playline is automatically shifted to the correct position on the Timeline.
Set target picons with AutoLink function -
Grabs the frame at the Ta r g e t position to be used in a thumbnail button; if not selected, the Picon
can later be set individually. AutoLink only.
Set target text with AutoLink function -
Same as above; only that the name at the Ta r g e t position will be used, e.g. the clips name. AutoLink
only.
Set return marker with AutoLink function -
Sets a menu return jump marker for each link set by means of AutoLink.
Menu Snapshot Settings
(See “Effects with DVD Menus (Transition Menu)” on page 930.)
Use background video -
If the menu background contains moving video. Deinterlace is recommended especially for back-
ground video that contains a lot of movement.
Highlight options -
These options define the Highlight status with which the Snapshot will be recorded. For example,
Active means that the Snapshot displays the menu button with a thick red border as though you had
actually pressed the button.
