## Options

### Strength

Parameter ID: `MDATA_SETEDGESLINEAR_WEIGHT` · Range: [0..100%]

Here you can define the degree to which an edge selection should follow a straight line. This value can be adjusted interactively by clicking and dragging in the Viewport.

### Equal Spacing

Parameter ID: `MDATA_SETEDGESLINEAR_EQUALSPACING`

Lets you define whether the points contained in the edge stroke should be set to constant distances (option enabled) from each other at 100% strength. Affected edge loops with thicknesses that differ greatly will be distorted in unwanted ways.

If this option is disabled, the distance between points will remain relatively constant.
