I have six motion menu's on the iDVD 2.0 project and want to add an extra one. I click on the "folder" icon and get a message that I have reached the maximum number and I can't add any more. The accompanying tutorial and help suggest that I should be able to do add extra menu's by clicking on the Folders icon. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? May be that since I have motion menu's I don't have the real estate to add an additional one??

iDVD limits you to a total of 6 menu choices per "screen". You can have 5 motion menus and a sixth "folder" menu that will take you to a new, second screen. This second screen can then display an additional six menus. You can have, i believe, up to 99 menus (space permitting) in this manner.

Having additional menu's on a second page is what I want to do. My question is how do I get there? Because, when I click on the folder icon, the message simply says that I can't add any more menus.

Thanks,

You get that message because you already have six menu items. You must delete one of them (leaving a total of 5) BEFORE clicking on the folder button. This new folder button will become the sixth and final menu item for that first page. Once you have the new folder button, double click it to go to the next menu screen.

T I think that's what I'm doing wrong. I will try the way you suggested.

Thanks,
