You can also drag templates and styles from the Palette. Any assets used by the template
or style, such as a background video or an asset assigned to a drop zone, are also added
to the list in the Assets tab, in a folder named Templates. See
Using Templates, Styles,
and Shapes to Create Your Menus for more information on using templates and styles.
Dragging Assets to the Track Editor
You can drag video, audio, and still images to streams in the Track Editor. You can drag
multiple assets, but you cannot drag a folder. See
Adding Video and Audio Assets for
details on how the assets are placed in their streams.
You can also drag one or more still images, as well as a folder containing multiple still
images, to a subtitle stream. Each still image creates a subtitle clip. See
Importing a
Graphics File for more information.
Dragging Assets to the Slideshow Editor
You can drag one or more still images, as well as a folder, to the Slideshow Editor. The
still images are automatically added to the slideshow. See
Creating Slideshows for more
information on slideshows.
Dragging Assets to the Outline and Graphical Tabs
You can drag video, audio, and still images to the Outline and Graphical tabs. How the
assets are used depends on where you drag the assets. The only difference between
dragging to the Outline or Graphical tab is that only the Outline tab has section titles for
each element type. The following tables list the supported actions.
Note: Most of the following actions work with the Outline tab’s By Type and By VTS
displays. The exceptions are dragging assets to the Tracks and Slideshows sections,
because the By VTS display does not have these sections. Additionally, with the By VTS
display, all menus created by dragging assets to the Menu section of a VTS are
automatically assigned to that VTS. See
Showing the VTS Editor for more information on
the By VTS display.
The following table lists the actions when you drag assets to an empty area or the disc’s
name.
