24 Chapter 3, Authoring the Tutorial Content
The Main menu
The Main menu will serve as a top-level menu for the tutorial project, providing
access to the Boeing movie, Scenes menu, and Airplanes slideshow. The Main
menu will be created from one of the sample media background images and
include a text object for the menu’s heading, and three additional text objects
that will be used as buttons to link to the Boeing movie, Scenes menu, and
Airplanes slideshow.
The text buttons on the Main menu will be linked to their destinations in
Chapter 4, “Adding Navigation.”
Note: Menus can also be created from templates, Photoshop files, and single-
color backgrounds (see “Other ways to create menus” on page 29).
To create the Main menu:
1 Click the Images tab in the Palette window.
2 Click the View Thumbnails button in the Palette window to display the assets
as thumbnails.
