These options are described in Kohta 2, ”Common Features”.

X Period, Y Period

Low values will increase the amount of repeating patterns, high values will enlarge the repeating patterns.

X Amplitude, Y Amplitude

Low values will cause a blurring effect, higher values make the pattern sharper.

X Phase, Y Phase

This determines the offset where the pattern starts.

Angle

This controls the angle at which the pattern is generated.

Offset, Exponent

The value offset and exponent control the relative amount of darker and lighter areas in the pattern.

X Offset, Y Offset

The offset of the X and Y axis.

Rotation

The rotation angle of the pattern.

Supersampling

The number of samples along each axis per pixel.
