LocalizeVariables

LocalizeVariables
is an option to Manipulate that determines whether the values of variables associated with controls should be localized.
Details
- With the default setting LocalizeVariables->True, DynamicModule is used to localize variables to each displayed instance of the Manipulate expression.
- With LocalizeVariables->False, the variables are treated as global, and can be set and accessed outside the Manipulate expression.
