The SD sets the width of the gaussian. It is not that techy if you know what a gaussian is.
Unfortunately, a significant portion of our userbase is not familiar with that type of terminology. Thank you for the explanation though, it will be easier to come up with more user friendly labels now.
- Population is more like a probability parameter. As it is written in
the code, if it is set to 50%, then the item has 50% chance to appear... If anyone has an idea to improve it, please do ! We did not spend much time to think of it.
So that's how it works! I guess my proposed label for "Amount" needs some rethinking.
- I don't think the Spray options are that bad. We did not want to
overload the toolbar with options, so it seemed natural to us to make it that way.
I have already got the ratio & tilt fields moved to the toolbar... My proposed label changes are ratio=flatness, tilt=angle. Working on how to handle the other parameters.
Thanks for explaining some of this!
Cheers, Josh
