Deleting a button on a menu
After you select the DVD template, you can delete any of the Main Marker or Scene
buttons. Because the buttons are tied directly to the DVD markers, deleting a button
requires deleting the marker that generated it. You can access the DVD Marker dialog box
directly from the menu, which allows you to delete the marker and button at the same time.
Once you delete the marker, Adobe Premiere Elements removes the button from the menu.
To delete a button from a menu displayed in the DVD Layout window:
1
If the DVD Layout window is not displayed, click the DVD button
in the task bar.
2
At the bottom of the DVD Layout window, click the small version of the menu containing
the button you want to delete.
3
Double-click the button you want to delete.
4
In the DVD Marker dialog box, click Delete. Adobe Premiere Elements deletes the marker
from the Timeline window and deletes the button from the DVD menu.
Making sure buttons don’t overlap
If you’ve given a DVD marker a long name, the button text, which is taken from the marker,
may run into the boundary of another button. In templates where the buttons are
immediately adjacent to each other, overlapping can easily occur. If you notice that the
button text appears to encroach on another button or Adobe Premiere Elements warns
you that buttons overlap, you can display the overlapping buttons in the DVD layout
window. To correct the overlap, simply double-click the button and type a shorter name for
the DVD marker.
