Description

Returns a variant array which is a list of all options that you can get with GetAlphaOption or set with SetAlphaOption.

The examples show extracting all option names, and their values.

The option names should be reasonably self-explanatory.

VBscript example

For Each opt In world.GetAlphaOptionList
   world.note opt + " = " + cstr (world.GetAlphaOption ( opt ))
Next


Jscript example

optionlist = new VBArray(world.GetAlphaOptionList()).toArray();

for (i = 0; i < optionlist .length; i++)
  world.note(optionlist [i] + " = " + world.GetAlphaOption (optionlist [i] ));


PerlScript example

foreach $item (Win32::OLE::in ($world->GetAlphaOptionList))
  {
  $world->note($item . " = " . $world->GetAlphaOption($item));
  }


Python example

for opt in world.GetAlphaOptionList: world.Note (opt)


Lua example

for k, v in pairs (GetAlphaOptionList ()) do 
  Note (v) 
end


Return value

It returns a variant array containing the names of all the options. Use "ubound" to find the number of options in the list. You can then use "GetAlphaOption" to return the value for that particular option, or "SetAlphaOption" to set that option value.
