    Is there anyway to use an image as opposed to the color overlay highlight mask? For example: my overlay consists of pink and yellow cup cakes. I can use my highlight mask to give a colored cupcake outline that moves around my menu but no detailed cupcake. Is there a way to make my cupcake move around in similar fashion? Change the highlight silhouette to the actual image?

    No. The DVD spec only allows for a highlight color. No images.

    Actually I figured it out by abandoning the highlight mask and setting the selected color to clear and setting the inactive button color to a solid color matching the background. The cupcake pointer is on the background image.

    THAT is a stroke of genius!!! I often wanted to do this and never though of doing that. I’m gonna write that one down. Thanks for sharing.
