Your welcome, Michael (oh, please, try and refrain from Mr. H., Bob is
fine even if a few others think it means them :)
Sorry I didn't say much intelligent and just redid the thing. If I start
trying to teach someone anything it sounds like docu-babble from the
unruley side-lines so I try to keep it short if at all possible.
The POV DOC reading (Search or Find in the Help) is a great resource.
That blob question can be answered pretty simply though in a way:
the radius depends on the strength which depends on the threshold and
all three combine in a mysterious way. Suffice it too say, if you have a
high strength value the radius increases and the reverse is opposite but
then it relies very much on the threshold value which when nearer zero
will allow increase in strength(?) (or radius?) and nearer 1 (or
strength value equivalent) diminishes the radius. Well, I seem to be
docu-babbling again so I better stop myself before I'm totally wrong.
Practice is also good exercise.
