Encore : Buttons aren’t highlighting

I'm not sure if I should post this under the Premiere Pro community but there isn't an Encore community to post to. Just finished up a project and trying to make a DVD menu on encore and come across a problem I never have had before. My last 3 buttons won't highlight. I linked the files to them and made them buttons and checked everything I knew quite a few times and I'm stumpt. I wonder if it's because it's the first time I've done a big project before I have a total of 21 buttons on the menu. 20 chapters and 1 back button so is it possible I just have to many buttons on one menu? I wouldn't think it was the problem but it's my last 3 buttons chapter 19 and 20 and the back buttons that won't highlight in the preview so makes me wonder if that's the problem maybe after 18 you can't put anymore? Like I said I never seen this before and have done a few DVD menus before. Any suggestions of what it could be?

If the buttons are the same you may be able to alt or option drag a working button to make duplicates and replace the broken buttons.

Awesome! Problem solved, thank you that is very good to know for the future so I don't spend all that time making one with to many buttons. I already made one where I split the buttons in half and made 2 DVD menus and its looks way better that way anyway not so congested. At first I just didn't want to make a whole other DVD menu but it's worth it when you see the difference so I probably wouldn't need that many buttons again anyway but still good to know. Again thanks for your reply
