5.3.6 Parameter mask

The mask parameter takes a list of elements, each of which can be a list of coordinates specifying a box, or a string pointing to the name of a cleanbox file, mask image, or region file. These are used by CLEAN to define a region to search for components.

Note that for imagermode=’’ (§ 5.3.4) the default with mask=’’ is to restrict clean to the inner quarter of the image.

   5.3.6.1 Setting clean boxes
   5.3.6.2 Using clean mask images
