ADOBE ENCORE DVD
Classroom in a Book
The appearance of the text blocks in the Menu Editor window doesn’t change, but the
names of the layers in the Layers palette do. Adobe Encore DVD uses special naming
conventions for buttons, which can be linked to timelines or other menus.

Adding subpictures to buttons
A subpicture is a graphic overlay that you can use to change the appearance of a button
when the viewer moves the mouse over it or selects it. You can create subpictures from
buttons in Adobe Encore DVD.
1 With the selection tool, select a button in the Menu Editor window.
2 Choose Object > Create Subpicture.
Adobe Encore DVD creates a new layer, with the same shape as the button. Its name
begins with (=), which indicates that it is a subpicture layer.
