Star Tool Polystar Missing Options

Mac 10.13.4 OS High Sierra

After Effects: 15.1

Troubleshooting to determine whether this is a bug or isolated issue.

Issue:
Star Tool has no options to change under Path 1 (Points, Position, Rotation, Roundness....)
Polygon Tool has all of the options. I can change to Star in Polygon and create what I want, but why is there no options with Star Tool?

I was pretty certain Star Tool had Points, Position, Roundness, too. I toggled it open and closed, restarted AE, etc

Is there any known issues regarding Star Tool?

Thank you for any insight on this and if that was never an option, my mistake. It's been awhile since I've used it, but thought they should be there.

    This is not an issue. Probably you have checked the Bezier Path option befor creating the Star. Uncheck the Bezier Path Checkbox before creating shapes. Check the attached image
