In the placeholder Property inspector, the gray text box and the Align text box are disabled. You can set these properties in the image Property inspector when you replace the placeholder with an image.

 Set any of the following options:
W and H
Set the width and height of the image placeholder, in pixels.

Src
Specifies the source file for the image. For a placeholder image, this text box is empty. Click the Browse button to select a replacement image for the placeholder graphic.

Link
Specifies a hyperlink for the image placeholder. Drag the Point-to-File icon to a file in the Files panel, click the folder icon to browse to a document on your site, or manually type the URL.
