REFLECTION WEIGHT OPTION GONE - I THINK I AM MISTAKEN :(

I have worked on a window to put glass on.  I use reflection weight 1 and glossy layered weight 1 as settings.  When I went to a second window in the scene reflection weight option is gone in the surfaces, only glossy layered weight is there.  When I open a new scene to test it with another glass, after rebooting Daz, the reflection weight is completely gone.  Can it be deleted by accident? 

I think I wrote it wrongly down, should be Refraction Weight.  Old age is not for sissies!

    Which shader is being used? Look at top-left of the Editor tab in the Surfaces pane, with a surface selected.

    Glass.  But I came across a tutorial for Iray surfaces by Sickleyield.  It's refraction weight, not reflection weight.  I wrote it down wrong.

    If you want the refraction weight you need to disable the shared specular option.

    Also, if that is one of the shaders from the Default Resources those do have far fewer options than the Iray Uber Base (or PBRSkin) since they are specialist shaders made for specific materials rather than a general shader intended to be adaptable to many different materials.
