Parameters - index

Name: index

Type: real

Read/Write: Write

Context: Coloring

Description:

This parameter is not initialized. Instead, a coloring algorithm has to set it to some value which then is interpreted as as index into the palette of the fractal. If the index is set to some fractional value, then the palette colors get interpolated.
