[chimerax-users] Use of EnumOption

[Eric Pettersen]

Hi Daniel,
	The documentation is kind of sparse there -- I'll try to remedy that soon.  Yes, you would make a subclass.  If you subclass EnumOption then you only specify "values" not "labels" -- text shown to the user will be the same as the values.  If you subclass SymbolicEnumOption, then you would specify both "values" and "labels", and "labels" is what is shown in the user interface.
