cells disappear. The Transition Width defines the amount of blur between the cells and the filler. Multiple
iterations of the pattern can be added to increase complexity by increasing the frequencies. Frequency and
Amplitude Ratios are used to affect the amount of downward scaling and the amount of fading applied to
each subsequent frequency. The Smooth Tops function affects cellular color when multiple frequencies are
in use. When set to 0, this function will allow all other frequencies to show through the cells; when set to a
value of 1, nothing will show through (in this case, frequencies are visible only in the filler area). Setting the
value higher will cause the additional frequencies to fade from the filler area as well. The variation settings
(Value, Hue, and Saturation) add variation to individual cells. Finally, the Bias and Gain settings control the
shift from foreground to background and the contrast, respectively.
