Working with a project having an introduction, 12 clip items, to be delivered on DVD with a menu and each clip having a "bullet point" entry in the DVD menu. The chosen menu style and number of clips requires a "next menu" choice (1st menu gives 6 items, next menu has the last 5 items).
The irritant is the "next menu" icon on the first menu. The default menu choice (chosen from the gallery of smart menus) shows the next menu icon (double arrows pointing right) at the bottom of the menu image. But to add text to label it ('next menu") means moving the icon so the text and icon relate to each other but don't clash. In this case, I moved the icon slightly left - by about the width of the icon. Which looked good in preparation, but on preview and in the final (in the final because I could find no way of fixing this and I had a deadline to meet), when the bullet pointer was moved (pressing down arrow on the remote when the menu was displayed) progressively to the next menu item, the display went to the original position of the icon and generated another image of the icon itself. On the display, at this point it looks like there are 2 icons - one with the text label, one by itself (in the original menu location) and that one is the one the bullet is highlighting.
Does anyone know
- why that happens? and
- how to fix it so the next menu icon actually shows at the position it's been moved to during preview and on the final disk?
