DESCRIPTION
Title

View
Lets you decide what the audio player will look like:

Additionally, using the "Float"property, you can align with the text
Appearance
Allows you to customize the appearance of the player:
- Standard: Applies the colors defined in the common properties for the buttons.
- Custom: Allows you to apply a custom color to the player.
Resource
The audio file to be displayed. Click "Browse" to access the Drive Resources folder (see here) and select the searched audio. Only files in mp3 format are supported.
Alternative text
Descriptive text of the audio. In case the audio does not load, this text will be displayed instead.
Vertical align
Property only available with "View" of type "Small".
Allow you to aling the audio icon on the top of the photo footer or in the middle.
Width
Property only available with "View" of type "Big".
Allows you to modify the space occupied by the component within the central content column. By default, it takes up 100% of the available space, but can be reduced using other predefined percentages or can be arranged to "full-size". In some dating styles, the "Full" size causes the size to exceed the width of the center column.
Align
Property only available with "View" of type "Big".
Places the right-aligned, left, or center-aligned component in the center column of contents. It only takes effect when we apply a "Width" less than 100%.
Float
Property only available with "View" of type "Big".
Allows the component to be "framed" around a text.
- First, in the "Width"property, we mark a size less than 100% (for example, 25%).
- In the "Float" property we decide in what position we want the component to float (to the left or right of the text).
- Move the component with its arrows to place it over the text.
Block fast forward
Only available in the "Big"view. It allows you to decide whether the user will be able to move forward or backward freely through the audio or whether the playback will be automatic and will not be able to interact with it.
