Size Diag2:   Default: 0.5,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Scales the length of the diagonal rays from top left to bottom right.

Size Red:   Default: 0.6,  Range: 0 or greater.
Scales the length of the red component of the rays. If the red, green, and blue sizes are equal the sparkles will be monochrome.

Size Green:   Default: 0.6,  Range: 0 or greater.

Size Blue:   Default: 0.6,  Range: 0 or greater.
Scales the length of the blue component of the rays.

Frequency:   Default: 32,  Range: any,  Shared.
The frequency of the sparkles. Increase to zoom out, decrease to zoom in.

Density:   Default: 0.65,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Increase to add more sparkles.

Seed:   Default: 0.23,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Used to initialize the random number generator. The actual seed value is not significant, but different seeds give different results and the same value should give a repeatable result.

Brightness:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Scales the brightness of all the sparkles.

Color:   Default rgb: [1 1 1],  Shared.
Scales the color of all the sparkles.

Color Variation:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Scales the saturation of the sparkles. Increase for more intense colors, decrease for more subtle colors.

Sparkle Speed:   X & Y,   Default: [0.1 0],  Range: any,  Shared.
If non-zero, the sparkles automatically twinkle on and off at this rate.

Smooth Anim:   Check-box,  Default: off,  Shared.
Enable for more steady animation, especially at high values of Frequency.

Scale Back:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Scales the brightness of the background before combining with the Sparkles. If 0, the result will contain only the sparkles image over black.

Params2:

Brightness X:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Scales the brightness of the horizontal glint rays.

Brightness Y:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Scales the brightness of the vertical glint rays.

Brightness Diag1:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Scales the brightness of the diagonal rays from top right to bottom left.

Brightness Diag2:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Scales the brightness of the diagonal rays from top left to bottom right.

Shift Start:   X & Y,   Default: [0 0],  Range: any,  Shared.
Translation offset of the result.

Shift Speed:   X & Y,   Default: [0 0],  Range: any,  Shared.
Translation speed of the result. If non-zero, the result is automatically animated to shift at this rate. The result of animated Speed values may not be intuitive, so for variable speed motion it is usually best to set this to 0 and animate the Shift Start values instead.
