### Neighbors

Parameter ID: `HAIR_GROWSELECTION_NEIGHBORS` · Range: [0..2147483647]

Enter the maximum number of neighboring guides that can be selected. If not enough guides are present in the area defined in the **Distance** setting – there just will not be any to be selected!

### Distance

Parameter ID: `HAIR_GROWSELECTION_DISTANCE` · Range: [0.00..+∞]

Enter the maximum distance from the selected guides that neighboring guides can also be selected. The **Neighbors** setting is also taken into account, i.e., if a large **Distance** value is entered, and only a small value for **Neighbors**, only the guides located in immediate proximity will be selected.
