# MatchTimeout

The maximum time to spend searching for matches (to all chosen entities) at a particular offset. You can specify the timeout in seconds and fractional seconds (for example 5.5 means five and a half seconds).

After it reaches the timeout, IDOL View Component returns the best match it has found (if any) and continues looking for matches later in the text.

Eduction usually finds matches very quickly, so in most cases you do not need to set this timeout.
