Saving a customized theme as a favorite

You can save a theme you have made changes to as a favorite so that you can use it for future projects.

When you save a customized theme as a favorite, the new theme includes any changes you made to button styles, button labels (typeface, font size, color, and so on), and menu backgrounds; additions to drop zones; and background audio added to the menu.

You can access your custom themes by selecting Favorites from the theme pop-up menu at the top of the Themes pane.

To save a custom theme:

Step 1

Open the project that uses the theme you have customized.

Step 2

Choose File > “Save Theme as Favorite” and type a name for the theme.

Step 3

Select the “Shared for all users” checkbox if you want other users of your computer to be able to use your theme.

Step 4

Select the “Replace existing” checkbox if you want your theme to overwrite the existing theme you based your custom theme on.

The original theme will no longer be available.

Step 5

Click OK.

When you save a favorite theme, iDVD creates copies of any images, audio files, or video files you used in the theme. This way, if you move or delete any of these files, iDVD will always be able to access them so the favorite theme is still usable.
