Chapter 7 Creating and editing menus
126
Setting the Subpicture Start point
Sometimes you do not want menu subpictures to be visible the moment a menu is displayed.
For example, if you create a menu with a video background that fades up from black, you
would probably want the subpictures to appear only after the fade.
To set a menu’s Subpicture Start point:
1. Select the menu in the Project window. The Attributes window displays the menu’s
attributes.
2. On the General tab of the Attributes window, change the Subpicture Start point by
dragging the slider or entering a time value.
After changing the subpicture start point, you must preview the project and render the menu
to see the effect.
Duplicating menus
To create a coherent presentation, you’ll often want all the menus in a project to have the
same general designs. Once you’ve finished laying out a menu, you can easily duplicate it to
create copies.
To duplicate a menu:
t
Right-click the menu in the Project window and choose Duplicate from the shortcut
menu. A new menu is created with the name “Copy of [original menu’s name].”
