14.13. Photon: Editing Queries - .change_int, .allow_entry_values

These two methods of the HistoryWindow class work together, calling the .set_sensitive methods to activate or deactivate the three specialized Interpolator options entry fields. The .change_int method uses the Gamma switch statement to detect which Interpolator options radio button was clicked, and calls the .allow_entry_values method with the appropriate arguments.
