Can we get a a GetViewList Function in OpenSTAAD

I am loving the new OpenSTAAD API that has views in it. They are great and I am finally getting around to using them. Can we get a function call GetViewList. Some of the options in the API require a view name as an input, it would be nice to be able to get a list of those views, rather than depend on user input. and while we are at it something like GetViewCount might be useful too.

    Thank you for posting this idea. We do have plans to continue adding to OpenSTAAD and this is one of the topics already in the backlog.
