The play (playback) icon helps let the site audience know that the tile is a video or YouTube content. This icon can be customized to be more aligned with preferred branding styles. Icons can be better rendered with a transparent background in PNG or SVG format.

Customize play icon for video or YouTube tile:

  1. Navigate to and select the target video or YouTube tile;
    ​

  2. On the left pane, click Custom Icon under the Play Icon section.
    ​

  3. Select the preferred or custom icon to be used from the Media Library, or your local machine using the +Upload Media button.
    ​

  4. Set the preferred crop in the cropper utility.
    ​

  5. Click the Crop button.
