Default Selection Button etc.

Need some help with this.

In DVDA3 I have one videoclip and two audiostreams, one stereo the other one AC3 Dolby Digital.
I created two empty buttons both linked to the the one videoclip, one button selecting audiostream 1, the other one audiostream 2.
With the navigation settings I can use the left,right, up and down remote buttons to select either one. It's not very handy (would be better to be able to disable up and down left or right remote buttons, which is not possible in DVDA3), but t works.
However, if the DVD opens there is no default selection button highlighted. If there are only two slecetion options I would like one of the two to be the default selection.
Only pushing the the right remote button should select the second option. Now either on of the left, right, up or down remote buttons have to be pushed to highlight either one of the selection buttons.
I puzzled for hours with the navigation tools but I just don't get it right.

So in short I would like to see one selection button highlighted by default and only use the the right remote button to select the other, the left remote button to take me back to the default selection.

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Dries.

PS. Anybody also missing some drawing tools?

Unless there's a bug in DVDA3, or possibly there's another button hidden someplace on the menu, the first button you created on the menu is normally the default selection button.

As for the navigation issues, select the button, expand the navigation properties on the properties for the button and specify that up and down take you to the same button that is selected. Repeat for the other button.

Thanks Scott, but I found the reason myself just now.
Because the videoclip showed first in the Project Overview none of the two buttons showed up highlighted by default. Moving the clip to the bottom of the Project Overview, so below the two links, did the trick.
Still I think in a next version of DVDA, one should be able to dis/enable up & down and left & right indepedently.
