Setting Media Object Properties

The pop-up menu that appears when you right-click in the button panel on the Media Objects form provides you with the option to view and, for some objects, to change the properties of an object. Each object has unique properties.

In addition, you can define metadata for an object. Metadata contains information about the object, such as a description of the object, who created it, and when it was created. Other users can search for the object based on this information.
