Shape: Squeare, Half circle, Circle, Triangle.
Use Subsurf Modifier: On/Off.

Scale Bevel in X (horizontal by default).

Options in the panel

New Beveled Curve. Add a beveled curve in the scene. Then the above operator pops up on the bottom left of the view-port.
Add/Overide Bevel. To call the operator again, but you cannot set the type of curve.
Edit Bevel. This allows you to edit the profile, or shape as this add-on calls it.
Hide Bevel Objects. This will hide the profile or shapes. It’s a bit a hassle to turn them back on so you will want to leave it as is.
Convert to Meshes. Converts the beveled curve to mesh.
Convert to separate Meshes. In case you have more curves in one object this button with convert the curves into separate meshes.
To Merged Mesh. When there are two curves in one object, this will convert to one mesh, but you will get faces intersecting.
To Union Mesh. Same as previous one but now the faces are not intersecting. It looks like Union Boolean two meshes.
