Transparent Background			Select this option if you want the object to have a transparent background.
Shape settings			For details about the following properties, see Section 4.3.4 Setting up the Shape of an Object. , Border Color, BG Color
Path Definition Block			The starting address of an internal memory block that stores the data of how to draw the path. Click to enter an address for this field. Click to select a tag for this field. The data are arranged in the following format:
			0	Number of path elements in the path
			1~8	The definition of the first path element
			9~16	The definition of the second path element
			…	…
			(8n-7)~8n	The definition of the nth path element

Drawing Trigger Bit			The bit or the word's bit that triggers the object to draw the path defined in the Path Definition Block. Click to enter an address for this field. Click to select a tag for this field. A 0 to 1 transition of the bit generates a valid trigger, so you should reset the bit to 0 before issuing next trigger. The object will copy the path definition from the Path Definition Block to its local memory so it can redraw the path later even the data in Path Definition Block changes.
Clear Trigger Bit			The bit or the word's bit that triggers the object to erase the path it has drawn. Click to enter an address for this field. Click to select a tag for this field. A 0 to 1 transition of the bit generates a valid trigger, so you should reset the bit to 0 before issuing next trigger. The path definition in the object’s local memory is erased too.
