If you had created the objects by programming in GDL, then I assume you would know the answer. So... I assume that you saved your objects from the plan or 3D window? The changes WILL require some very basic GDL, but it is pretty simple stuff.

Since you aren't on 9 yet, you can read the documentation over the web at:

Click on the book "Introduction to Object Making" and start reading... Chapter 7 is probably what you're looking for.

thanks karl.
i'm slowly getting there. i just open the libary part of the object and seeing a list of stuff there that i can add into the library part. i am tyring to add the background fill because my object is 'transparent' on 2d plan....

Aha. Yes, this is something different - I thought you wanted to parameterize existing elements. I'll answer in the thread where you post your example:
