What is the use of sent to event creator checkbox in notification?

[PP12]

Hi I am triggering notification through event -

BR (after insert) -

gs.eventQueue('Notify_Assigned_to',current,current.assigned_to,"");

Here whats happening if i am checking event parm1 checkbox only then the mail is not triggering

if i am checking both event parm1 and event parm 2 the mail is also not triggering.

but if i am checking sent to event creator,event parm 1 and parm 2 box then the mail is triggering.

Can anyone tell me what should be exactly the right step to follow? and whats happening exactly?

 I have not got your question correctly .Can you rephrase your question .

If its a reference field you can just dot walk to the fields values 

and please refer to the below link if it helps.
