Editing button text
The text of each button currently reads “Button.” You need to change the text for each
button to refer to the timeline it links to.
Creating resizable buttons
The buttons in this project retain their sharpness as you resize them because they were created using
vector masks, layer styles, and live text layers in Adobe Photoshop. A vector mask creates a sharp-
edged shape on a layer, and is useful anytime you want to add a design element with clean, defined
edges. As with other vector objects, vector masks can be scaled to any size without losing their crisp
look.
