Please read over post #25 again, take note of the first paragraph. I've explained how the menu structure works. You completely modify the background, creating new buttons and changing its positions. This means complete menu reauthoring. Replacing the menu background is not enough. You still need to modify the button/subpicture highlight - this is the main reason for the partial highlight you're experiencing.

From the screenshots, what is the error for the red highlighted Titles node under VTS1? I don't think you're doing it right. You cannot create more VTS Titles to just refer to a specific program and have VMG Title refer to this VTS Title. You can only refer to program 1 for each entry PGC, which is part of the multi-PGC multi-Title.

btw, what happened to program 1 reference in Titles pane?

There are 2 approaches to refer to a specific chapter:

1. With the menu in the VMG domain, assign a specific value to a register, R[x] = y, for each button. Jump to VMG Title 1 (VTS1 Title 1). Then in the VTS1/Program Chains/PGC1, write some pre-command conditional statements, testing the register against each value and jump to a specific chapter (Jump Title 1 chapter #) accordingly.

2. With the menu in the VTSM domain, you can assign each button to a specific chapter (Jump Title 1 chapter #) directly.

For your case, the easiest way is to use method 2. Then reroute First Play PGC pre-command to jump to the Root menu (VTS1/Menus/PGC 1).

If you're still stuck, I need to see your files so I can help you walk through a lot quicker as you're on this project for a few days. As for the files, I'd like to see 2 sets.
1) One is from the original, no editing is done (Just import as a new project if you're already have the current project modified). Do an export test DVD. Zip only the IFOs and VIDEO_TS.VOB as original.zip.
2) One is what you have right now with the modified background replaced and whatever editing you have done. Do an export test DVD. Zip only the IFOs and VIDEO_TS.VOB as modified.zip.

Upload 2 these files here. I'll take a look.
