globalmapper.SetMiscOption
================================

.. currentmodule:: globalmapper
.. py:function:: SetMiscOption (GM_MiscOpt_t32 aOpt, uint8 aNewValue) -> uint8

    DEPRECATED: Use :doc:`SetMiscOptionEx<globalmapper.SetMiscOptionEx>` instead, since this function can't handle
    options that take values over 8 bits in length, like GM_MiscOpt_SetLogFilename and GM_MiscOpt_SetTimingsFileName.
    Sets an advanced/miscellaneous option to use during operation. Returns the previous value.

    :param GM_MiscOpt_t32 aOpt: Option to set
    :param uint8 aNewValue: New value (i.e. 1 to enable or 0 to disable), or value of other setting
    :returns: The value of the previous option
    :rtype: uint8
