Choosing the Menu’s Overlay
You can use overlays with layered menus as well as with standard menus. Every aspect
of using them, from selecting the file and configuring its color mapping, is identical to
how you use overlays in a standard menu. See
Choosing the Menu’s Overlay for
information on adding an overlay to your layered menu. See Understanding Color Mapping
for information on configuring color mapping for simple and advanced overlays.
About the Menu Inspector for Layered Menus
The tabs within the Layered Menu Inspector provide a variety of menu configuration
settings. These settings control everything from background and overlay configuration,
to transition and timeout settings.
The Layered Menu Inspector has five tabs: General, Menu, Transition, Colors, and Advanced.

The top of the Layered Menu Inspector contains two settings.
• Name: Enter the name for this menu.
