The selections offered in the Object menu allow you to precisely configure
each screen object.
Depending on the type of object you are creating or editing, the selections
offered in the Object menu will vary slightly.

illustration appears when a push button is selected. The next menu appears
for an arc, and the object menu at the bottom appears when a bar graph is
