Almost all object have a vast number of options that one can fiddle
around with; the Props Inspector only
displays a subset of them; why? I don't know, but I can hazard a guess:
a Props Inspector that displayed ALL the props of each object might be
so unwieldy as to be virtually unusable.
"Just for fun" . . .
Set up a new stack with a scrollingListField field called "PROPPS"
and try this in the MessageBox:
put the propertyNames into fld "PROPPS"
and "blow your mind" . . . :)
