## Declaration

```

## Parameters

- `inUIConfiguration`: A dictionary that specifies the size of the controls. Provide the key IKUISizeFlavor and one of the following values: IKUISizeMini, IKUISizeSmall, or IKUISizeRegular. For more information on these constants, see User Interface Options in CIFilter Image Kit Additions.
- `inKeys`: An array of the input keys for which you do not want to provide a user interface. Pass nil if you want all input keys to be represented in the user interface.

## Return Value
