Important iDVD Interface Terms

u Button. Any interactive element in

the DVD workspace is a button, even

if it doesn’t always look like a button.

New movies, slideshows, and chapters

are all buttons, because they require

some sort of action on the part of the

user to activate them.

u Submenu. The exception to buttons

are submenus

, which are containers

that hold more stuff. An example

of a submenu would be the “Scene

Selection” option that appears when

you import a movie with chapter

markers. The item is a control that

takes you to another menu screen,

which includes buttons for each chap-

ter that you’ve set up.

u Theme. A theme is the overall look

of a menu screen, including the visual

presentation (fonts, colors, etc.) as well

as the way it interacts (with motion

menus, etc.).
