Description
The ST SET OPTIONS command modifies one or more operating options for the styled text field or variable designated by the object parameter.
Passing the optional * parameter indicates that the object parameter is an object name (string). If you do not pass this parameter, it indicates that the object parameter is a field or variable. In this case, you pass a field or variable reference instead of a string (field or variable object only).
Pass the code of the option to modify in option and its new value in value.
The option parameter supports the following constant found in the "Multistyle Text" theme:
| Constant | Type | Value | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| ST Expressions display mode | Integer | 1 | The value parameter can contain ST Values or ST References |
In the value parameter, you can pass one of the following constants:
| Constant | Type | Value | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| ST References | Integer | 1 | Display source strings of expressions |
| ST Values | Integer | 0 | Display computed values of expressions |
