			===Do not cut structure element at border===
			This option lets you decide how the elements get drawn, if the object would be cut off at border. You can pick either '''Draw element if completly inside area''', '''Draw element if center inside area''' or '''Draw element if partially inside area'''.

			===Irregular Pattern===
			This function allows to define the horizontal and vertical variation of objects inside the area (in %). It's also possible to push the elements inside the area apart with a defined minimum distance between symbols.
