**Plane Extent ** \\
Minimum and maximum X and Y coordinates of the plane extent.

**Properties ** \\
__Opacity:__ Degree of opacity. 1=fully opaque, 0=fully transparent (enabled when Blending Mode = Transparency)\\

**Resample Bitmap to Optimal Size For Better Performance ** \\
If this option is checked (recommended) the bitmap is automatically re sampled to a resolution that is optimal for the OpenGL engine. The scaling of the bitmap is not changed. If you cannot allow re sampling of the bitmap this option should not be checked.
