renderoptionsΒΆ
Generate the default set of render options, or fill the missing options
When no argument is given, this function create a table of rendering options to pass to the render() function. All mandatory options are set to their default value, which can be dependent on the current project settings.
When a table is given, this function fills the table with missing default options. Present options are left unchanged.
The result can be sent to the render function.
This function is documented to provide a useful list of available options, as well as their default value.
