Using actions
By now you have imported your menu graphics from a layered Photoshop file and set up your playlist. Now
it is time to author the menu interactivity for your Blu-ray Disc.
Actions are functions that create the interactive functionality of your Blu-ray Disc. The beauty of actions is
that you can author sophisticated navigation and event-based interactivity in your BD project without ever
touching a line of code. The actions do all of the work for you.
Actions do not apply to DSAEXEdition projects. For more information, see "Creating projects" on page
31.
