Problem

When using meshroom and attempting to adjust the attributes of some nodes, it is not obvious in which direction a certain (float/integer) attribute affects the node.

For example, the "MeshResampling" node:

Simplification Factor:
Simplification factor for the resampling.

From this description, it is hard to tell if increasing the simplification factor will increase or decrease the number of vertices in the output.
I could see it going both ways:

  1. "simplification factor" could mean "how much simplification to apply to the output" (ie. increasing it decreases the number of output vertices)
  2. "simplification factor" could mean "the ratio between the number of input vertices & the number of output vertices" (ie. decreasing it decreases the number of output vertices)

Solution

It would be nice if the documentation/description for the attribute could show the direction/how the node will be affected

Using the previous example of the "MeshResampling" node:

Simplification Factor:
Simplification factor for the resampling.
A higher number increases the number of vertices in the output, lower number decreases the number of vertices in the output.

Diff
 Simplification Factor:
 Simplification factor for the resampling.
+A higher number increases the number of vertices in the output, lower number decreases the number of vertices in the output.
