Creating Menu Tracks 129

4 Drag a still image subpicture asset from the Asset Manager, or Windows Explorer, to the

timeline, just below the still stream. Subpicture and highlight streams are added to the

track and the subpicture asset (if dragged from Explorer) is registered.

Note: When subpicture assets are dragged from Windows Explorer to the Track Editor

timeline, they are automatically registered with Forced Start enabled.

5 To add an audio stream, drag an audio asset from the Asset Manager, or Windows

Explorer, to the timeline. An audio stream is added to the track and the audio asset (if

dragged from Explorer) is registered.

6 Additional steps to complete the motion menu track, some of which may occur later in

the authoring process after the track is turned into a PGC, include the following:

• Create button highlights around subpicture shapes and text (see “Button Highlights” on

page 132).

• Set the subpicture colors that will be displayed for the three button states: display,

selection, and action (see “Subpicture Color Mapping” on page 146).

• Link the button highlights to other menus or movie scenes with navigation commands

(see “Linking Button Highlights with Jump Commands” on page 199).

• Set the motion menu track to loop (see “Looping PGCs with Jump Commands” on

page 198), so it plays indeﬁnitely, until the viewer presses a button that directs playback.
