The Options tab in the Visual Editor provides options for configuring the content, layout, behavior, page settings, accessibility, and advanced properties of a block.
To edit options for a block in the Options tab in a Builder Project—that is, you are on a Fusion plan—you must be in Design mode.
To display block-specific options, select a block and open the Options tab.
The image below shows a selected button in the Fusion Visual Editor and its corresponding Options tab:
When you select a block that's in the work area, the Options tab changes according to the context.
For example:
- A selected Image block features an option to change the photo.
- A selected Button block gives you a way to change the text of the button, add a link, and a toggle to open the link in a new tab.
The screenshot below shows a selected Text block and the Block options that provide a way to edit the copy, toggle Inline text editing, and adding a link to the block:
