Correct description of Change Parameters flag
The Change Parameters flag on the Access Entries screen for a user determines whether that user's settings will override any previously-set parameters (for example from a wildcard user) - it does not affect the ability of subsequent users to override settings in turn. The exception is the 'Rights' settings where all matched users with the Change flag set are ORed together.

The *Change parameters* flag allows you to control which parameters

(permission flags, all types of profiles, channel tags and ranges) are
55
combined when multiple entries match a username/login. When the
6-
change parameter flag is enabled (checked) for a parameter that
7-
isn't set, the next matching entry (if any) in the sequence can set it.

for this user overrides any previous entry (though it can in turn be

overridden by a later entry). The exception is the **rights** option

where the permissions for all matching users having the change parameter

flag set are added together.
