Project Properties was created by Ilona

Posted 22 Feb 2015 15:29 #1
When starting up a NEW project in DVD Architect 4.5 a window displays prompting you for a type selection of "Menu Based", "Single Movie", etc.
Is there any way one can query an existing project to see which of these options was used to create it?

I have Menu Based .dar files and Single Movie .dar files which I use as a base and then edit it to produce my final DVD. I do this so I have consistency in appearance and text formatting and colour on my DVDs. They are a lot of work to create from scratch.

Thank you

The only way to find out if an old project is Menu based or a Single movie, is to open it.
Single movies do not have Menus.

There is a different way you can customize your DVDs without having to open previous projects.
You can save your favourite Menus as Themes.
A theme will save any Text Styles and Colours you have added and also any special thumbnail designs you have created on the Menu page.
Right-click any Main Menu screen you want to save and select Export Menu as Theme.
Saved Themes will then appear in the Themes tab.
Next time you start a new project, go to the Themes tab, find your custom theme and double click to apply.

ℹī¸ Remember to turn everything off at least once a week, including your brain, then sit somewhere quiet and just chill out.
