10 ULEAD BURN.NOW USER GUIDE
Source Explorer Window and Disc Layout Window
The
Source Explorer Window
is similar to Microsoft Windows Explorer. The left pane
displays the folders and disk drives available while the right pane displays the files and
folders inside the currently selected folder or disk drive. The toolbar at the top contains
commonly used commands. You can also right-click at the left and right panes to display
other useful commands.
The
Disc Layout Window
displays the files and folders to be burned to disc. The panel
will appear different depending on the task chosen. When creating data and MP3 discs,
the panel displays files and folders similar to the
Source Explorer Window
. For audio
tasks, the panel displays track information such as title and duration.
Except for creating a bootable disc, most disc burning tasks require you to first include
the files from the
Source Explorer Window
to the
Disc Layout Window
. Use any of
the methods below:
• Drag the files or folders from the
Source Explorer Window
to the
Disc Layout
Window
.
• Select the files or folders and click
.
• Click
Add files
.
Disc-space Meter
The
Disc-space Meter
indicates how much space will be occupied on the target disc. A
progress bar starting from the left side indicates the amount of space to be occupied on
the disc; or the total duration of tracks when compiling an audio CD. The progress bar
extends to the right as more data are added.
Safety markers (colored dotted lines) on the right running vertically down the meter
indicate capacity limits. The yellow marker indicates the recommended maximum
capacity, while the red one indicates the absolute maximum limit. Increasing the
quantity of data beyond the yellow marker is risky, if there is only one disc available for
burning all the files selected.
Notes:
• You can select multiple files by holding
[Shift]
or
[Ctrl]
as you
would in Windows Explorer.
• The size of both panels can be adjusted by dragging the
Splitter
.
Also, you can click
at the upper right to expand or
to
shrink them.
