    microstructure

    Select pixels within this distance of other selected pixels. Type: A real number.

Description

Expand the pixel selection by selecting all pixels within a distance radius of a currently selected pixel. The radius is given in units of the Microstructure pixel size.

This is the opposite of OOF.PixelSelection.Shrink, in a sense, but it is not the inverse operation. Expanding the selection and then shrinking it by the same amount does not in general return to the original selection.
