Restore Mimbuild in the interface.

[jdramsey]

In the config file, this bit of code needs to be uncommented:

        <model name="MIMBuild" acronym="MIMBuild" help="mimbuild"
               category="Multiple Indicator Model searches">
            <logger>
                <event id="info" description="Information" default="on"/>
                <event id="details" description="Misc Fine Details" default="on"/>
                <event id="maxmodel" description="Max P Value Model" default="on"/>
            </logger>
            <model-class>edu.cmu.tetradapp.model.MimBuildRunner
            </model-class>
            <editor-class>edu.cmu.tetradapp.editor.MimbuildEditor
            </editor-class>
        </model>

Maybe there's a better interface for Mimbuild, but this one at least works. Here's a screenshot.

@jdramsey Do I just uncomment the config section and test things out or is there anything specific you want me to look at?

[jdramsey]

@yuanzhou I think just uncomment it and try it out, as you say. It should just work; it was working before, and it worked for me just now. I thought it better if you did the honors though, so you weren't surprised.

[yuanzhou]

@jdramsey no problem. Since I'm also fixing another Tetrad bug, I may combine this issue and the one I'm working on in the same pull request later.

[jdramsey]

@yuanzhou Great, thanks!

I was able to get the Mimbuild work. Also noticed the weird highlighting issue that we noticed int he knowledge tier box.

@jdramsey for some reason, I could only get it work once. I tried several times later with multiple searches but just couldn't reproduce. What is the proper procedure to use the Mimbuild?

[yuanzhou]

For example, I created a data model and imported some data. Then PC search1, FGES search2. On search3, I was able to select "Mimbuild" but it pops up this:

I think I'll need some instructions on how to use Mimbuild.

[jdramsey]

Try simulation first. In the Graph box make a random MIM, with four measures per latent, like this:

Do a search, as follows:

Then a measurement model box:

Then add Mimbuild:

This gives you a graph over the latents.

This is a little difficult to follow for a user; we may need to add an additional pipeline or two for it. Unless you can think of a better way to do it!

Thanks @jdramsey! I also set the cluster selection to start at 3 with a upper limit of 100. It was showing 0 even though we have 3 clusters, and the upper limit was 1000, which I think is too big.

I'll send a pull request soon.

I'm closing this since we've had Mimbuild restored in development branch now.
