Learn more about how to use video properties below.

Width and height

Those properties allow changing the size of the button, once hovering on the letter W (width) or H (height) should appear a left-right arrow which allows dragging to the desired size, click and drag, and release after the perfect size is reached.

Alternatively pressing on the number close to W or H letters will allow entering the desired size in px (pixel).

Once the lock icon is pressed it will change to a locked one, this means that when the button will change size it will change proportionally.

Stretch to Width

Clicking this property will set the video to 100% which is equal to the width of the browser window.

Opacity

Once dragging or typing another value, video transparency will change accordingly, it could be from 0 to 100.

Rotation, corner radius

Once hovering on the angle icon should appear a left-right arrow that allows dragging to the desired radius, click and drag, and release after the ideal angle was reached.

Right drag - rectangle will rotate in the right (positive value) direction, left drag - it will rotate to the left (negative value).

Alternatively pressing on the number will allow typing the exact degree amount.

The corner radius works in the same way as the angle, but once the action performs it will change the radius.

It could be combined with rotation.

Pressing the icon that indicates corners on the right side just close to the corner radius will allow changing the radius per corner

The order is:

  • Top right corner

  • Bottom right corner

  • Bottom left corner

  • Top left corner

This property allows changing the default video to desired one, it could be a video from YouTube or any video from the device.

  • 
Mute - video will play without any audio
