#86 integration of switched menus
Hi,
When creating menues i like to have possibility to change appearance of the menu. I created a menu for selecting different titles on dvd. It works fine, but i also like to have an image of currently selected title in the menu. This means if i step to other button of menu i like to change the picture shown in menu. I didnt find possibility for this in DVDStyler, so i searched in google for this. I did find very interesting article about "switched menus with DVDAuthor" (http://www.geocities.com/samanthalane/dvd/). This article describes how to use the "up" and "down" keys for changing menus (In real not the menu itself changes but the menus are switched form one to other, different only in the picture dispayed).
I tried this out and i found its really working nice. So i created my dvd menus using DVDStyler and did some editing in the xml-files. Because i didnt like to edit the xml-files created by DVDStyler each time i searched for a way to integrate the proceeding described in the article into DVDStyler. I found out that its possible to integrate "key actions" into DVDStylers source xml-file. So i only had to edit the DVDStyler xml-file once and now DVDStyler produces also the actions for remote control keys "Up" and "Down". But if i like to change the behaviour of these actions i still have to edit the xml-file, because there is no possibility to edit this in DVDStyler. So it would be very useful if there is possibility to edit the attributes of these action in same manner as it is possible to edit behavior of buttons.
