manipulation on the image wireframe overlays.
When in creation mode (either Rectangle, Ellipse, or Spline is selected) you
can set the Detection and Correction values that will apply only within the
shape to be drawn. When in selection mode (either Select or Transform), the
UI looks the same as in creation mode, except that the values are for the
currently selected shape. The two garbage can buttons provide deletion of
selected shapes, and all shapes on the current time frame, respectively.
Each drawn shape has several values associated with it, the first 3 of which
override the corresponding global (automatic) parameter in the area of the
shape:
To:Use:
override the global detection tolerance.Tolerance
override the global size tolerance.Size Tolerance
override the global dust expansion amount.Size
override the global repair method. The default is Temporal. You
would only switch to Spatial Repair in areas where the motion is

there are no parameters for the Temporal repair method. When

Smoothing parameters will be grayed out.

set how far to search from the dust to find a pixel to put in place
of the dust.
Spatial Distance
