Widget catalog
The 18 widget types, in the groups the Add to plan wizard uses. Each entry lists the fields on the widget's page and the Custom styles it accepts. Not every player plays every type; see Widget support by player. Every type also carries a Duration, which the wizard proposes when you add the widget to a plan; the plan row's own duration is what plays.
Media

An uploaded image. Created by uploading to Media; there is nothing to configure. The fit option on the plan row decides how it fills the section.
