Applying a background image to other menus

When you create a background image, such as a photo or a JPEG graphic you created in another application, and you want to use it in more than one menu in the same project, you can easily do so.

Important: When you apply a background image to another menu, you also apply any changes you’ve made to the buttons and text on the menu.

To use a background image for other menus:

Step 1

Make sure the menu whose background you want to apply is showing in the iDVD window.

Step 2

Choose Advanced > “Apply Theme to Project” to apply the image to all the menus in a project.

Step 3

If the image in question is in the background of a menu that itself has submenus, choose Advanced > “Apply Theme to Submenus” to apply the image to those submenus only.

You can also save the changes you made to the theme to use in other projects. Choose File > “Save Theme as Favorite” and name your customized theme. Next time, you can choose it from the Favorites group in the Themes pop-up menu.
