How do I change the style of the arrow buttons? I have to reinstall my dvd 5.2, because my hard drive when out. Now I can't find any of the different arrow styles to go from page to page. Thanks:)

You can always make your own in Photoshop or Gimp. (Actually, any image editor that makes JPG or PNG files).

You change them by clicking on the current navigation button and in the "Media" tab of "Button Properties", look for something like this: "Default: Prev-Button-Shape.png". Hit the dropdown arrow for that line then select "replace".

DVDA has a bunch of these arrows in the Themes. Here's where they are stored on my PC:

While this appears as a double-post, it appears the OP's question was simple in the DVD forum and it ,the subject we think was simply answered in the DVDAPro forum member reply.....what appears to me is that I might surmise his question is really more complicated - but that could be just me.

I think the answer he wants is to create arrows in a graphics editor or Photoshop type app and then save it as a transparent .png - The setting to make the arrow appear/disappear has to do with using the graphic mask set to intensity in DVDAPro.
