Description

The typical output of the likelihood optimization process shows the parameter ident that currently features the maximum gradient, like it is shown here:

... max(|grad|)=35.707783 [DEC:1450]

Unfortunately, the parameter index does not help the user in the first place. I think it would be more convenient to replace the parameter index with the associated source name, which may finally read like:

... max(|grad|)=35.707783 [MySourceName:DEC]

The user could immediately see which source drives the fit.


Recurrence

No recurrence.

Agree that this would be better. The current problem is that in the place where the output is produced (GOptimizerLM::optimize) the parameters are flattened and do not relate anymore to a specific model component, hence for the moment there is no way to determine the name of the model that contains the relevant parameter.
