    <para>All attributes except <emphasis>

      </emphasis> are optional. The <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;label&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> attribute defines text to be represented.</para>
    <para>The <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;mode&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> attribute could be used with three possible parameters:</para>
