background too large for mask

Hey everybody,

I am creating my first dvd. It is a single video. I have set up a menu that includes a button, mask, and a theme. The problem I have is the first chapter of the video (my title page) is too large for the masked button. How do I make the chapter graphics smaller to fit in the masked area?

Thanks.

You choose the button thumbnail from the movie timeline cursor.

Thank you, but I do not understand. Can you be a bit more descriptive?

Set a button's thumbnail image
You can easily set a button's thumbnail image using a specific frame in the media file:

Double-click the title's icon in the Project Overview window.

Click in the timeline window to position the cursor on the frame you want to use as a thumbnail image.

Right-click the title's icon in the Project Overview window and choose Set Thumbnail from View from the shortcut menu.

Some of the questions you are asking can be found in the program Help section, the online Knowledgebase, and/or Interactive Tutorials. Search there first, and post if you don't find an answer, thanks.

I'd suggest using the built in help too, terminology is different compared to Vegas and the help does explain nearly everything.
