Iv been playing with this way awesome gui, and so far most things are fine. However, I am trying to dynamicly set the selectable objects in a dropdown box and having no luck at all. Heres the code:

Function loadStructures(filename$ = "models\structures.wdat")
	fn = ReadFile(filename$)
	alphasetvalue( "Select_Model" , 0, "") ; clear list?
	While Not Eof(fn)
		ln$ = ReadLine (fn)
		wd.obs = New obs
		wd\filename = ln$
		wd\mesh = LoadMesh (wd\filename$ )
		wd\id = lastWDID + 1
		lastWDID = lastWDID + 1
		ScaleEntity wd\mesh, 0.02, 0.02, 0.02
		EntityAlpha wd\mesh, 0.2
		HideEntity wd\mesh
		;alphasetvalue( "Select_Model" , wd\id, wd\filename$)
		namelist$ = namelist$ + wd\filename$ + "|"
		AlphaSetValue( "Select_Model" , wd\id, namelist$) ; add entry?
	Wend
	;alphasetvalue( "Select_Model" , wd\id, namelist$)
End Function

As you can see, Im not really sure how to use the alphasetvalue for setting dropdown options.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
