The Brush Radius Graph appears when you click the Radius button on the Setup rollout of a Particle Paint helper. It allows you to animate the brush radius over the time of a single stroke.

The left end of the graph represent the start of the stroke, while the right end represents the end of the stroke. The values in the left column represent the brush radius in units.

Move the existing control points, or add and move more control points, to change the curve over the length of the stroke.

The controls on this dialog are similar to those on the loft deformation dialogs in 3ds Max.
