Simplify3D instructions

Is there any information that the company provides explaining what the various settings control? For example, under the Extruder Tab, there's a section for "Ooze Control" and it has Extra Restart Distance. I'm not looking for a one-off explanation. I'm looking for a guide that actually exp...
