14 Chapter 2 iDVD Tutorial
Important: If dotted lines appear in the picture frame when you drag your movie,
move the mouse pointer until the dotted lines disappear and then drop the movie.
Dotted lines indicate a drop zone, a special area of a menu. Movies added to a drop
zone become part of the menu background, rather than featured movies on the DVD.
When you add a movie with chapter markers, the DVD menu title changes to the name
of the movie and iDVD automatically creates two buttons on the menu. In the
illustration above, you see a Play Movie button, so the viewer can play the entire movie,
and a Scene Selection button that links to the scene selection menu.
For movies with no chapter markers, the title does not change, and only one button
appears, labeled with the name of the movie you added. The drop zone contains the
text “Drop Zone 1.”
You can easily change the title and the text on the buttons. In this example, you’ll
change the title to “Vacations.”
To change the title text:
m Double-click the title and type Vacations in its place.
