Colors Tab in the Subtitle Inspector
The Colors tab in the Subtitle Inspector is very similar to the Colors tab in the Menu
Inspector.
• Mapping Type: Select the colors used to create the overlay graphic. This setting only
applies to imported graphics files.
• Chroma: Uses black, red, blue, and white
• Grayscale: Uses black, dark gray, light gray, and white.
• Selection State: Unless you have configured this subtitle clip to provide buttons over
video, only the Normal setting is available. When configured for buttons over video,
you can select the button state you want to configure, and that state’s colors and
transparencies are displayed.
• Set: Active only when you have configured this subtitle clip to provide buttons over
video. Select the color mapping set (1, 2, or 3) to configure. All new buttons use set 1.
See
for more information.
Note: These sets apply only to the selected and activated button states. The normal
state color mapping setting applies to the entire overlay graphic unless a button’s
active area is selected or activated.
• Key: Displays the overlay file’s colors as selected with the Mapping Type. The names
to the left of the key colors (Text, Outline 1, Outline 2, and Background) show which
settings apply to subtitle text entered in DVD Studio Pro.
• Color: Select the color for each of the four overlay colors from the current Color Palette.
If this subtitle is configured to provide buttons over video, you must do this for all three
button states.
• Opacity: Set the transparency for each of the highlight colors. You can use the slider
or enter a value from 0 (completely transparent) to 15 (completely opaque).
