ORGANISING MULTIPLE MENUS IN EDIUS NEO

I have 19 sequences and would like to split them over two DVD menu pages: 10 on the first and 9 on the second ... but cannot see how to make that division.
Edius automatically places 12 items on the first menu.
I cannot set the first menu to use 2 rows of 5 columns.
Any ideas?

I use Edius 6.5 and my Blu-ray menus can have 15 moving image thumbnails per menu page - in 5 rows, three columns. I see no reason why DVD menus can't be exactly the same.
This can be combined with audio and a moving image as a background.

Maybe it is an Edius Neo limitation, but the system simply would now allow me the freedom to specify just 10 items per menu.
In the end I had to fake it with two sequences which were just 5 seconds of black. So far as Edius was concerned these were menu items. Then I shrank them to invisibility and thus just 10 options remain on view. It is a clumsy work-around. But it works.

I would be very surprised to learn that Neo's DVD authoring was a different program to v6.5, but I like your work-around Dave. Life is full of such work-arounds.

I have Neo 2.5 on the laptop and when I created 12 sequences it automatically put 10 on one menu and the other two on the second menu

12 sequences! Sorry guys, I thought you were talking about chapter points. I should read the words before answering the imaginary question.
