In general, I'm finding the descriptions of patches in QC3 a little lacking detail. Types of inputs and outputs in particular but also the range of patches available - for example, what is the difference between "Multiply" and "Multiply Blend Mode" exactly? The descriptions given don't seem to be very revealing, and the functionality of Multiply Blend Mode appears to be similar to Screen Blend Mode. Whilst I'm happy to explore these differences and learn them for myself, having accurate or detailed documentation would help a lot.

Indeed. It's frustrating to read for the umpteenth time that images with infinite bounds must be cropped to be displayed instead of about what a patch really does. Sometimes there are clues in the help tags for the input or output ports, but not often enough. It's a common problem, of course, and I'm sympathetic. "Should I spend time documenting a patch or write the cool new patch I've been thinking about...?"
Agreed.
Maybe we could start a WIKI page or something ...
