Usage
Click the intensity box to activate it (red outline). The following prompt will appear:

In response to this prompt, type the new value for the reflection intensity. Press <enter> to confirm. If you type a '?' followed by <enter>, the selection submenu will be displayed where you can make your selection from the available file maps for the reflection intensity.

Comments
The reflection intensity is the value that indicates to which degree the surface of an object reflects (mirrors) the environment. The default value is one. When the intensities for diffuse, transparency, and reflection are added together, they should not exceed one. Any value map can be entered in response to the prompt instead of a single numerical value.
