The Five Limeade Parameter Panes

The LiME parameters controlled by Limeade are grouped into five distinct logical categories: file inputs, match error, match space, search and display/reporting. File inputs specify where LiME is to read the model, data and optionally and image used for display. Match error parameters alter the way the match error weights different terms. Match space parameters determine how LiME selects which model line segments might match which data line segments. Search parameters control which of the three search algorithms are used as well as selecting different types of behavior within each algorithm. Finally, display and reporting parameters alter how LiME allows the user to visualize matching progress, whether information about the matches found is stored to a log file, and what text is printed to standard out.

One moves between panes by selecting the desired pane name from along the top of the window. Along with the pane selection buttons, the Save, Save as..., Save & Run and Done buttons are always displayed regardless of the pane chosen. These are used to save the parameters file, save the parameters file to a file with a new name as specified through the File Browser, to save the parameters file and then invoke LiME, and finally close this window when finished experimenting with this parameters file.

At the bottom of this window is a help window which will display a short help message associated with whatever field the mouse is currently over. This is perhaps the best way to refresh your memory about what each of the parameters does.
