I am trying to output a list of the possible options for an object's attribute. Namely I am trying to fill a umenu with the different draw_modes of a jit.gl.mesh object without having to type them in to the umenu manually. I did not have any success with getattr, since it only outputs a list of all attributes or the current value, but not all the options for a single attribute. Is this possible somehow?

Any help of someone more experienced would be really appreciated.

Yellow arrow -> attributes -> draw_mode doesn't do the job, or do you need something different?

Hey Richard,

Hi Matteo, thanks for the quick answer! I know I can create an attrui by clicking the yellow arrow, however, I need to output a list of the possible options the attribute can be set to: So in the case of jit.gl.mesh the list would be "tri_grid, quad_grid, points, lines, ..." (see screenshot below) Hope this makes sense somehow.. Is this even possible?
