new to Analytica 4.4
This page to describe the new "Smoothing" option on the Uncertainty Settings→Probability Density pane: What it is, how it smooths. Maybe some warning about how smoothing causes an increase in the apparent variance. Why it may be preferable to using a histogram method. How the PDF function can be used in unusual cases where you want more control -- a custom smoothing factor, fewer or more plotted points, etc.
Written assuming reader understands Monte Carlo samples, the basics of continuous probability distributions, but doesn't know what KDE is.
