How do I make the top menu a CHAPTER menu?

Hi everyone - thanks in advance for any assistance.
My DVD consists of 5 short scenes. Because this is a "portfolio" DVD, the scenes are not meant to be viewed sequentially. So when someone pops the DVD in, the first (and only) menu I want them to see is a Chapter selection menu.
In iMovie, I put Chapter marks in front of each scene, which iDVD is recongizing nicely. So the content is working right - I just want to avoid that opening screen.
I thought I'd be able to go into the Map and delete the "Play Movie / Scene Selection" screen, but the program won't let me. Can anyone suggest how I can do this? Thanks!
BTW, I'm currently using the Shelves theme.

Right now all 5 clips are in one iMovie project. But I can't access them anymore because when I put them in the Timeline, they disappear from the clips window. (I guess Apple thinks I'd never want to use the same shot twice?) I've found that I can drag the clip from the Timeline back into the Clips window, but then it's gone from the Timeline. So clips can't exist in both places? Wierd.
If you Option-Drag the clips from the clips pane to the timeline, a copy of the clip will remain on the clips pane.
You can get all five clips as separate movies by doing 'copy' and 'paste' of each clip (one at a time) into five different iMovie projects.
But when I Share to iDvd, it doesn't add the new movie to the existing iDvd project - instead it seems to create a new project each time.
Don't use the 'Share to iDVD' command from within iMovie. It will not do what you want this time, and even in the future don't use it because it causes double rendering of the movie clips.
Close each iMovie. Then open your iDVD project and import each clip's movie by dragging and dropping them into the main iDVD screen. The movies will be under 'media'->movies.

    How do I make the top bar stay on the screen all the time?

    "Top tab bar"?
    The top of the screen is where the applications menus appear on the left and system icons (time, volume. etc) appear on the right side.
    This entire area is "covered over" when you enter into "Full Screen" mode. You can expose it while still in full screen by moving your cursor over the area.

  • How do you make the Safari menu bars at the top and bottom of the browser go away in iOS7 when you can't scroll the screen?

    The menu bar at the bottom of Safari screens only goes away if you scroll the screen.  But for one page content, the screen can't be scrolled which renders useless any links/buttons at the bottom of the page.
    Is there a fix for this in iOS7?
    In iOS6, users needed only to tap the screen to remove the Safari menu bars.  This does not work in iOS6.

  • How do you make the top margin .5" on page 1 and 1.0" on all of the following pages?

    I have been a PC user since 1987 and find the iWorks programs far less intuitive than the MS Office products.  I have been using a Word doc template, which I customized back in 1990, and all of my client records use this template.  So, as I am converting to Apple, I need to find a way to adapt the iWorks Pages to accomodate my doc needs, if that is possible.  As indicated in the question, I need to set the top margin on page 1 to .5" and, using either a section break or a page break, enable the top margin to be 1.0" on all of the following pages.  I read somewhere on the net that this might be accomplished by using a layout break but, when I tried that, the margins on all pages seemed to still be connected to each other.  Is there a way to accomplish my objective?

    Okay, narrow is narrow.  Just need to make sure we're clear on the point that we're discussing the top and bottom margins. 
    I just found another post that led me to "Defining Layout Margins" in the Pages help files.  Between that post and the information in this help message (specifically item #4), I was able to deduce that Pages does enable me to do exactly what I need.
    1 - set the page margins on page one;
    2 - create a layout break at the bottom of page 1, which will effect the next page;
    3 - with the cursor on page 2, open the inspector;
    4 - go to the layout inspector;
    5 - change the "before" margin.
    In the layout inspector dialog box, "before" = "top" and "after" = "bottom", not as in paragraph or line formatting.  I don't know why it couldn't just say top and bottom.  That would eliminate a lot of confusion.
    This has enabled me to have one top margin on the first page and a different top margin on all other pages. However, as nothing is perfect, this process must be repeated on each page.  A little more work but definitely worth the effort, if you need this type of formatting.  Better than not at all in other words.
    Thanks for your time and help.

    Where is the Patterns pop-up menu, and how do I make the little crapper pop up? (huh. They don't have and emoticon for furious.)
    I have been searching the "Help" system for hours.  All I want to do is find a picture of an empty blue sky to put behind two airplanes.

    From the Toolbox, select the Paint bucket tool
    In the Paint bucket options at the top, change from "Foreground" to "Pattern".
    Click on the Pattern block to the right and the Pattern dialog will pop up.

    You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden, so you need to hide the Menu bar to get the new appearance.<br />
    If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or hold down the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily.<br />
    You can place the Tab Bar on top.
    * View > Toolbars : [ ] Menu Bar
    * View > Toolbars : [X] Tabs on Top
    The Tab bar only appears on the title bar if the Firefox window is maximized.

    Thank you so much.  You are absolutely right.  I will have to reduce the screen density when I work with those programs.
    Thanks for your trouble and regards

  • How do I make the menu title a different color when it is the active menu in Spry horizontal menu?

    How do I make the menu title a different color when it is the active menu in Spry horizontal menu?

    Actual:
    Home menu title is the same color as all of the others.

    Nothing I have tried in the template makes the BODY tag editable. That's why I'm wondering how to disconnect the template from the individual pages. Adding an ID to each body tag is a prerequisite of the how-to page you supplied.
    You don't make the <body> tag editable in a Template.
    You make attributes of the <body> tag editable.
    Don't disconnect the Template from the child pages.
    Specify editable tag attributes in a template
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/using/WScbb6b82af5544594822510a94ae8d65-7aa3a.h tml
    In the Template:
    Select the <body> tag (either in the Tag selector or click inside the <body> tag in Code View)
    Modify > Templates > Make Attribute Editable
    Select ID from the Attribute dropdown menu
    If there's no existing ID attribute then click Add and type ID into the next dialogue box
    Attribute: ID
    Check the box to "Make attribute editable"
    Enter anything into the Label field as a default e.g. foo
    OK
    Dreamweaver will change the <body> tag to read <body id="@@(foo)@@"....
    Now the ID is editable
    Save the Template and update the child page
    In each child page:
    Modify > Template Properties
    Select the id attribute from the list (it's probably the only one listed)
    Change its name in the box to whatever name matches your CSS rule for the active state for that page
    OK
    Save
