Creating a New Visual Scene
The visual scenes provided in the DynaVox InterAACt page sets (refer to the
InterAACt
Visual Scenes
section in this
User’s Guide
) make use of background images and active
areas (invisible buttons) to set the context for communication. In addition to using these visual
scenes, you may also want to create your own visual scenes with custom pictures as the page
backgrounds and create your own communication context based on the scene.
To create a visual scene and link it to your existing set of communication pages, follow the
steps outlined in the following sections.
