new text objects, one next to each movie button. Use all of the program's functions in
order to realize your ideas.
Drag the text layer using drag & drop into the layer container into the respective layer
sets. Adjust the layer names. Add an "(+)" to each text layer. You can generate
additional layers that may be necessary for the text, such as shadows, background
frames or bitmaps, etc. During reimport, all layers of a group with a (-) in front will be
pooled into one text object.
Save the results.
Xara Xtreme Designer Pro 6:
In Xara Xtreme Designer Pro 6, activate the text tool after loading the PSD file and
write the desired text next to the movie button.
Now, you have to localize the existing movie buttons (object gallery technology, see
above). You can drag and drop the text object from the background into the found
layer and delete the text object there (Del or "Delete" in the object gallery). Because
naming takes place in the surrounding layer and the objects in Designer themselves
don't have names, you don't have to rename anything.
Repeat this for every movie button and "Export" the result.

Photoshop Elements:
In Photoshop Elements you can only add something to existing button graphics and
highlights since individual layers in layer sets cannot be deleted an no new layer sets
can be created. The general method is similar to text editing: create new layers and
add these to existing layer sets using drag & drop. Finally, adjust the layer names: All
layers, containing the highlight to be displayed, must again recieve a name that begins
with a "(=1)".
You can create graphics for your new menu for "Prev" and "Next" buttons by dragging
them into the open PSD file. They are, for example, 4 layers, two button graphics and
twop highlights. The highlight layers must be renamed and scaled and placed on the
screen using the mouse. Move the layers using drag & drop into the "(+>) next
button" or "(+<) prev button" layerset.
Save the results.
Photoshop CS1:
In Photoshop CS1 everything works similarly to Photoshop Elements. In contrast to
MAGIX Video Pro X5, generated layers can also be deleted, so that button graphics
can really be replaced.
