The Object's Attributes can be used to fully customize the Object. Explained below, they are:

• Transformation

• Text

• Button

• Code

• Tag

Transformation

Transformation Attributes.

The Transformation Attributes deal with placement, rotation, and size in XY space. More information can be found here.

Text

Text Attributes.

The Text Attributes customize the textual elements of a Button.

• Text is the text itself which will be displayed on the Button. Please note that only text which fits within the confines of the Button will be displayed. Size the Button accordingly.

• Font family offers three different font types: monospace, sans-serif, and serif. More fonts can be added by the user in Project Settings.

• Transform can easily change certain text aesthetics without requiring the user to change the Text Attribute itself. Capitalize makes the first letter capital, uppercase makes all letters capital, and lowercase makes all letters lowercase.

• Font size (px) determines the size of the font in pixels.

• Font color decides the color of the Button's text.
