type setting

This setting is an int value that specifies the built-in fractal formula to use. Currently, there are two built-in formulas, so the value of the setting can be either 1 or 2. The following types are defined:

Type Description Parameter 1 Parameter 2
1 Mandelbrot: z = z*z + c complex start (starting value) float bailout (bail-out value)
2 Julia: z = z*z + c complex seed (Julia seed) float bailout (bail-out value)

Usually you don't need to write your own formulas using the built-in formulas, since all built-in types are implemented in Standard.ufm distributed with Ultra Fractal.

This setting can only be used in the builtin section in fractal formulas.

Example:

builtin:
  type = 1
