Set the global scale for the effect.
Size 0.0 - 1.0
Perform non-uniform scaling on X, Y and Z axes separately.
Mode Euclidean, Manhattan, Chebyshev, Minkowski

Minkowski Number 0.0 - 20.0
Only with Minkowski distance metric. Blends between different types of metrics.
Style F1, F2, F2-F1, Border, Random Color
Set the Metric combination math. Allows for many more combinations.
Border Width 0.0 - 1.0
When Border combination math is active, controls the width of the border.
