Removing images and movies from a drop zone

You can remove media (still images, slideshows, and movies) from a drop zone on a DVD menu.

Here are ways to remove media from drop zones:

From the menu, drag the image, slideshow, or movie out of the drop zone.

When your pointer is outside the drop zone, the media is deleted in an animated puff of smoke.

Open the drop zone editor by clicking the drop zone button (shown below), by choosing Project > Edit Drop Zones, or by double-clicking a drop zone.

Drag the media out of the drop zone, or select the drop zone and press Delete.

To remove individual images from a slideshow in a drop zone, open the drop zone editor. Double-click the drop zone that holds the slideshow, which opens the slideshow editor. Delete the unwanted images, and then click the Return button to go back to the drop zone editor.

You can also remove media as follows: from the menu, press the Control key and click the image or movie in the drop zone. Then choose Clear from the shortcut menu that appears.

If you want to replace the media in a drop zone, you can simply drag a new image, slideshow, or movie into the drop zone, on top of what’s already there. The drop zone changes to display the new media, and the old item is deleted.
