Working with the Oval

Shape Bottom control the positions of the corners of a rectangle in which the oval is
inscribed. These values are scaled as percentages of the width and height. When the Shape
Primitive menu is set to Oval, the other controls in this parameter group have no effect.

Shape Top=25

Working with the Border 1, Border 2 and Border 3 Parameter Groups

The Border 1, Border 2 and Border 3 parameter groups allows you to apply up to three ßat
borders to the backdrops. By default, the Border parameter groups are set to have no border.

Each parameter group offers the following controls, except for the Border 3 parameter
group which does not contain the Border Begin, Border End, or Border Offset parameters.

The Border On checkbox allows you to individually enable and disable each border.

Position sets the location of the border.

Inside positions the border on the inside of the edges.

Outside positions the border on the outside of the edges.

Center centers the border over the edges of the backdrop, so half of the border is on the
inside of the edges, and half on the outside.
