What does the Reseed button do?

Each plug-in dialog has a Reseed button. This recreates the plug-in effect using a new sequence of random numbers. The random number generator is also reseeded with the current time each time an effect dialog is entered or when the plug-in parameters are read as part of a scripting operation (Photoshop only).

The preview is updated after the Reseed. This preview is only a hint of the final image. This is because most of the effects use random number sequences and the smaller preview area uses only a subset of the sequence used by the final effect.
