  [Item("GeneralizedExponentialDiscreteDoubleValueModifier", @"Modifies the value exponentially.
The base is a standardized exponential function with exponent `Base`
that is then transformed to pass through the startValue at the startIndex
and through the endValue at the endIndex.
For a slow change initially use a value > 1 for `Base`.
For a steep change initially use a value < 1 for `Base`.
Negative slopes are automatically generated if the start value is greater than the end value.
If you use `base`=1 you will get a linear interpolation.")]
