5. Tools menu : tuning accuracy

Shift the cursor till you get the expected value.

As a result of this parameter a maximum number of valid trees will be set.

In order to get the maximum precision (0,2 %) four millions valid trees could have to be scanned. With a 10% target, 400 should be enough. Within this maximum number the accuracy is evaluated by observing how the results fluctuate as the computing goes on adding new valid trees to the previous ones. If fluctuations fall within the chosen range, the computation will terminate.

Please note that this is a target accuracy. The actual one can be better ... or worse.
The lower cursor allows you to tune the upper limit for the number of trees to be scanned should the expected accuracy prove impossible to reach.

6. What does the progress bar stand for ?

It shows the current precision as evaluated by the software. It may fluctuate as explained above, but will eventually increase toward the expected accuracy.
