Thank your for this information. This part was taken from the old 
documentation, so I've must have missed something in the release notes.

You're right. I've no idea what this is for - I've read the tooltip, but I 
don't understand what this means. So any insight is very much appreciated.

I'm still using 2.37a. I will update the screenshots when 2.40 is officially 
released.

I apologize for that. I did in no way intend to create the impression that I 
have written the page on my own. To "finish a page" has maybe a bit other 
connotation in German - stating simply that I've stopped working for the 
moment.

So I'm afraid my only excuse is that I've written on the discussion page:
-------------
  My main information sources were:
  http://www.blender3d.org/documentation/htmlII/x4605.html
  http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Procedural_Textures.272.0.html
  http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Radial_Blend_Type.677.0.html

  And I have taken a lot of text from these pages. --Soylentgreen 21:59, 19

Knowing that my English needs correction, I'm more than happy if someone will 
check it. And someone who has insight in the program is of course more than 
welcome. 

So sorry about not giving due credit.

With kind regards
