DVD Architect 4 - Button NEXT

Hi there, I'd like to know if the problem with configuring NEXT button has been fixed in the new version of DVD Architect. I remember people complaining (that includes me) , that programing the NEXT button was somehow weird since the NEXT button in version 3.0 doesn't follow the end actions but the order you put the clips on the screen on the left. Thanks in advance.

I wanted to hit NEXT, for instance, when button number 2 is highlighted and go to the intro (if there's one) or to the related movie clip itself, intead of getting back to the start point of the menu that will keep button number 1 highlighted.

I would hazard a guess that virtually every user of a DVD player knows that when a button is highlighted, you press enter to activate the button, not next chapter.

What you are asking for is the ability to re-assign buttons on the DVD player remote to different actions, and that cannot be done. However, you can prohibit the operation of the button. Click on the menu background, then click on the "Remote Buttons" on the properties pane, and change "Next" from "on" to "off"

May I ask why? That is most definitely not the purpose of the NEXT CHAPTER button. In fact, I'm rather surprised the button does anything at all while the viewer is on a menu. I certainly have never thought to use it there (as a viewer).
