This slide gadget allows you to select the amount of \{ \tc 9 Red \} in the
\{ \ts i color generated mask \} that you are trying to create.

This slid gadget allows you to select the amount of \{ \ts i variance \} in
the \{ \ts i color generated mask \} that you are trying to create. The \{
\ts i variance \} describes the amount of difference is allowed between the
selected color and other colors that may be selected. If the slide is all
the way to the left, the variance will be 0, and no other colors will be
selected. If the slide is all the way to the right, the variance will be 255,
and all other colors will be selected.

This will take the selected variance allowed in the color space, and instead
of using a sphere for determining the color selection, it will use a cube for
this determination. This type of selection is often refered to as a \{ \ts i
Manhattan Calculation \} or a \{ \ts Manhattan Distance \} .
The image bellow may help to clarify this issue. The \{ \tc 10 green \} dot
in the middle is the selected color for the operation. The \{ \tc 9 red \}
circle represents the set variance (this is a linear distance). The \{ \tc
yellow yellow \} square represents the \{ \ts i square distance \} . The \{
\tc blue blue \} in the center of the circle represents the colors that would
be selected with the set variance. The \{ \tc 15 dark blue \} represents the
additional colors that would be selected by using \{ \ts i Square distance \}
.
