Distribute on Faces- Distributes your objects on a surface's faces
Distance Min: Set the minimum distance between objects to avoid intersections.
Density: Set the density for your scatter object .
Viewport Display %: Percentage of the scattered objects to display in the Viewport
Seed: Change the seed to get another calculation

Distribute on Vertices- Distributes your objects on a surface's vertices.
Density: Sets the amount of objects you want to scatter.
Randomize- Randomizes the Scale/ Rotation.

Randomize XYZ- Randomizes the Scale/ Rotation with individual controls for each axes.

Scale- Controls the scale of the scattered objects.

XYZ: Controls the scale on the X,Y and Z axis separately.

Wind Effect- Emulates a Wind like Effect on the Rotation of each Scattered Asset.
Speed:  Controls the movement speed
Strength: Controls how much the objects get excited
Detail: Controls the complexity of the wind pattern
Scale: Controls the size of the changing wind pattern

Rotate- Change the rotation of your scattered objects.
Use Normal: Check it if you want to use the surface normals as the main orientation. If you uncheck it, all objects will be rotated with Z up.
Rotation XYZ: Change the rotation on each axes.
Randomize XYZ: Randomize the rotation on each axes.

Slope- Masks out all object depending on the angle of the surface. Use the subtract blend mode to invert it.
Strength: Controls the relative border where objects are masked out.
Height-  Masks out all objects after they reach a set height. Use the subtract blend mode to invert it.
Percent: Controls the relative border where objects are masked out.

Wave profile: Sine, Saw or Triangle
Wave Type: Rings - Bands
Direction: X, Y or Z.
Scale: Adjust the size of the Waves
Offset: Move the wave along the chosen direction.
Animate: Checkbox to animate the Wave effect.
Speed Multiplier: control the Animation speed

Proximity-
Changes the density, scale or rotation based on the distance to another object
Object: Select the object that you want to scatter around.
Distance Multiplyer: Controls where the density, scale or rotation starts to change.
Look at-  Adjusts the orientation so that every scattered object orients towards a third object.
Axis: The axis around which to rotate

Camera Culling- Masks out scatter objects that are outside the camera view.
Camera: Select the camera you want to use.
Focal Length: Set the focal length that your camera is using for a correct result.
Sensor Size: Set the sensor size that your camera is using for a correct result.
Render Width: Related to camera aspect ratio
Render Height: Related to camera aspect ratio
Buffer: Extends the edge of the area that is masked out by the Camera Culling Effect Layer.

I will work to improve and organize this documentation further in the future
