We position the cursor at the right edge of the blue rectangle of the "Still" timeline and drag the edge to line up with the audio component. We can just type in the desired duration (06 seconds : 23 frames) in the "Duration" field in the Property Browser window. Scenarist displays a warning message in the Information window if it has to pad a few frames at the end of the audio track to line up with the video still portion.

Now we can add a mask (or highlight) layer to the title menu track. From the Asset Manager window, drag the item motiontitlemask from the subfolder "Subpicture" and drop it to an empty area between the Audio and Scenes timeline. Scenarist creates the first subpicture layer for the still scene motiontitle-t-scn. The DVD specifications allow the creation of up to 32 subpicture layers. The default language for this subpicture layer is "Not Specified". We should select an appropriate language code so that the language choice is displayed by a standard DVD player (when the Subtitle/Subpicture button is pressed on the remote control unit). In this example, we choose English as the language code for the first subpicture stream.
