Sure, you can have up to 99.

Note that almost all the menus only have six buttons (for style reasons) so either:

- Choose the "Ocean (14 Slideshows)" menu which supports up to 14 slideshows
- Choose another menu and click the Customize button. Then add a DVD button for your extra slideshows

If you have any difficulty please let me know.

No all that the film describes is simple.
The problem is the menu. Not even the Ocean template with 14 items
is good, it does no place the words correct and there becomes of
words and lines. Besides I need more than 14 items, please tell me
if you donīt have a solution, I have spent too many hours already.

Hi Sven;
I looked at the video from Nigel..Did you try changing the Font Size of the titles in the Menu? From the demo it showed a font size of 24. I recently did a 10 item menu and changed the font to 18 which makes for smaller text and you are also able to push the titles closer to each other. Regards,

Thank you for answering. I use i e the Ocean template with 14 items and complete it with 2 more. Evrything looks fine but when I try the DVD and point to item 15 on the menu it send me to item 1.
Do you have an idea what Iīm doing wrong.

Hi Sven;
Go to "Burn Multiple Slide Shows to Disk"
Open your Project
Click "Customize Menu"
Double-click on the Text for each menu item to open it for editing.
Click the "Edit Button"
On the Edit Button Screen in the "Size" window use the down arrow to change the font to 12 and click Ok. Do this for each item you now have.
Also use the little squares around the text by Clicking and draging them to make the text box smaller.
Use short names for your menu items so the will fit side by side with space in between.
I was able to place 20 Menu Items on the screen in two columns with space in between by holding and dragging them to position. When I previewed the Menu it worked fine. I hope this works for you. Regards,
Cocoapod
