PrintHumanReadable

This property allows you to set whether the component will output the human readable version of the bar code (i.e. the actual letters or numbers). Bar codes like UPC-A and EAN-13 should always have this checked. As for the other bar codes, it is completely up to you.  


ð
ReprintOnOverFlow

ReprintOnOverFlow applies to situations where a Stretchable component is stretching across pages. If the object overflows onto a new page, any components that are on the same band will reprint on the new page (if ReprintOnOverFlow is checked).  
 

ð ShiftWithParent

ShiftWithParent applies to situations where a Stretchable component is stretching. If ShiftWithParent is checked, the label component will move based on the amount of stretching the object requires. When you want components to appear at the bottom of an object, this is a useful feature. If the object stretches to a new page, the components will print on the next page.

Allows the object to become transparent to the background object
