AVS DVD Authoring - Adding and Editing Simple Graphics

Add Simple Graphics button Text properties panel: Pen Text properties panel: Position Text properties panel: Brush Line example Pie example Rectangle example Sector exampleYou can easily add simple graphics to your DVD menu pages. To do that you should use the appropriate button of the Editing Area or the Add Simple Graphics option of the Page section of the Main Menu. After you use either option to add the simple graphics, you will need to select the type of shape to add - Line, Rectangle, Ellipse, Pie or Sector.

Ellipse example
  • Select Line to draw simple lines of different colors on your DVD menu page.

  • Select Rectangle to draw simple rectangles and squares of different colors on your DVD menu page.

  • Select Ellipse to draw simple circles and ellipses of different colors on your DVD menu page.

  • Select Pie to draw simple pie shapes of different colors on your DVD menu page.

  • Select Sector to draw simple sector shapes of different colors on your DVD menu page.

After you add either of the simple graphics shapes you can view and change their properties and sizes:

  • Position - use it to control the graphics position on the menu page. It will show the graphics position in relation to the menu page corners and the width and height of the graphics bounding rectangle. The position is changed when you change the graphics position.

  • Pen - use it to select the outer line of the graphics (the inner space is filled with the Brush) or the color of the line. You can choose the Pen Color, transparency using the Transparency slider and selecting between the values from 0 (fully transparent invisible pen color) to 255 (null transparency - fully visible pen color), and Pen Width using the slider.

  • Brush - use it to fill the inner space with the selected color or colors (this property is not available for the Line). See the Filling Background Using Brush section for more detail on the Brush settings.

You can also change the graphics size using the black squares Black square on its boundaries (the mouse button will look like this Mouse cursor on a black square when you hover it over one of the black squares - click the mouse button and, without releasing it, drag it to change the graphics size).

The same way the shape can be changed - use the same black squares to elongate circles and squares to make them ellipses and rectangles, change the shape of the pies and sectors.
