characters, you can have up to 24 states; for double height characters you
can have up to 12 states. If you include a border around your list you will
lose two single size or one double size entry.

Numeric objects can be divided into two groups: Input objects (which are
used for numeric entry) and Display Objects (which display numeric
values on the screen).
