Is there any way to change the settings for a web object or video (size, start after delay, etc.) after you've already added it without having to delete and re-add it? You could do this in '09 but the functionality seems lost in '13. This is annoying especially with how long it can take to import a video.
You're correct - it's currently not possible to modify a web object or video's properties after inserting. I do agree that it would be much easier to have functionality similar to '09 for these objects, especially if you're updating constantly (I switch out web objects or need to update the URLs frequently).
If you haven't already, I would definitely recommend reaching out to our development team. Try to be as detailed as possible with your suggestion. If you have any colleagues that would like to see this type of feature, it couldn't hurt to have them share their suggestion as well. The more information we have, the better!
In the meantime, if you're able to find any time-saving workarounds, I'm sure the community would appreciate the information.
