## Overview

The **Media** panel displays visual content attached to the active step during procedure creation.

The content shown depends on what was configured for that step:

* If an **image** was attached, the image is displayed.
* If a **video** was attached, a video player interface is displayed.

The Media panel appears only when media has been attached to the current step.

## When the Step Contains an Image

If an image was attached to the step:

* The image is displayed within the Media panel.
* No playback controls are shown.

The image remains visible while you are on that step.

If no image was attached, the Media panel does not appear.
