It is time to create the necessary menu buttons for the video title set root menu so we can access a particular slide show from the remote control. The following screen shot shows the horizontal and vertical visual guides to assist the placement of the menu buttons. We can use the text tool ("Aa") and create the button "Show 1" to play back the first slide show as following.

To make the button visible on top of the video background, we need to define a visible color from the Color Map tab as shown below. If we want the video background to show through the overlaid text characters, we can adjust the transparency setting of the color by dragging the appropriate horizontal slider on the right of the chosen color. For more color selection, we can click on the color square to display a palette of additional 16 colors. The color definition is specified with the button state set at "Normal".
