4. To apply the text settings to similar text items in all menus, click Apply To All Scene Buttons, Apply To All Text Buttons, or Apply To All
Marker Buttons.
Animate buttons
You can add video to main menu and scene menu buttons if the template contains buttons that display a thumbnail.
1. At the bottom of the Disc Layout panel, click the thumbnail of the menu you want to change.
2. Select a button in the Disc Layout panel.
3. In Properties view of the Tasks panel, select Motion Menu Button.
4. Set the In point where you want the clip to start playing when the menu is displayed. You can either use the Play/Stop button to view the
clip in the thumbnail, or edit the In Point timecode field.
5. To set the duration for the clip to play, click the background of the menu, and then in the Properties view under Motion Menu Button, edit the
Duration timecode field.
The duration you set for a motion menu button applies to all motion menu buttons on the disc.
Switch to a different menu template
If you decide you don’t like your choice of disc menus, you can easily change to a different template. You will lose any changes you made to menu
titles, non-marker button names (Play button or Scenes button), and text settings (font, color, style, and so on). You won’t lose changes you made
to backgrounds and marker buttons (main menu markers and scene markers). When you edit button text, you actually change the name of the
menu marker, and the new marker name is used when generating the new menus.
1. Click the Menu Theme button in Movie menu panel.
2. Select a menu template and click Continue. Premiere Elements displays the new menus in the Disc Layout panel.
Change from a menu-based disc to an auto-play disc
If you decide you do not want to use menus in a DVD, Web DVD, or Blu-ray Disc, you can reset the layout to create an auto-play disc.
Although an auto-play disc does not contain menus that link to the marker, existing menu and scene markers in the project can be useful.
The Next and Previous buttons on a DVD, Web DVD, or Blu-ray player’s remote control skip ahead or back to main menu markers and scene
markers. Stop markers are ignored.
In the Adjust panel, click Auto-Play.
The menus are removed from the Adjust panel and the markers are as chapter points in an auto-play disc.
