+Clicking on `Advanced Options` expands the available controls, which are as follows. These do not need adjusting for standard use.
 
+- **Search options**
+  - `Tests/topic/round`. How many relevant tests to perform for each topic in each round. Larger values reduce the likelihood of prematurely discarding topics whose relevant chunks may not be at the top of the similarity-based ranking, but may result in smaller values of `Relevance test budget` being spread across fewer topics and thus not capturing the full breadth of the data.
+  - `Restart on irrelevant topics`. When this number of topics in a row fail to return any relevant chunks in their `Tests/topic/round`, return to the start of the topic ranking and continue testing `Tests/topic/round` text chunks from each topic with (a) relevance in the previous round and (b) previously untested text chunks. Higher values can avoid prematurely discarding topics that are relevant but whose relevant chunks are not at the top of the similarity-based ranking, but may result in a larger number of irrelevant topics being tested multiple times.
+  - `Test relevant neighbours`. If a text chunk is relevant to the query, then adjacent text chunks in the original document may be able to add additional context to the relevant points. The value of this parameter determines how many chunks before and after each relevant text chunk will be evaluated at the end of the process (or `Relevance test budget`) if they are yet to be tested.
+- **Answer options**
+  - `Target chunks per cluster`. The average number of text chunks to target per cluster, which determines the text chunks that will be evaluated together and in parallel to other clusters. Larger values will generally result in more related text chunks being evaluated in parallel, but may also result in information loss from unprocessed content.
+  - `Show search process`. Show the search process in the UI, including the progress of chunk relevance tests and the search for relevant chunks.
+  - `Live analysis`. Enable live analysis of the text chunks as they are processed. This provides immediate feedback but slows down the overall process.
+  - `Analysis update interval`. The number of text chunks to process before updating the live analysis. Larger values will give faster final reports but also result in longer periods of time between updates.
+  - `Live commentary`. Enable live commentary of analysis themes after text chunks are processed. This provides a preview of report content while the final report is being generated.
+
+The `Query` and the `Relevance test budget` are required in all cases:
+
+- `Query`. The query or task that the user would like the AI to perform with respect to the data.
 - `Relevance test budget`. The query method works by asking an LLM to evaluate the relevance of potentially-relevant text chunks, returning a single token, yes/no judgement. This parameter allows the user to cap the number of relvance tests that may be performed prior to generating an answer using all relevant chunks. Larger budgets will generally give better answers for a greater cost.
-- `Tests/topic/round`. How many relevant tests to perform for each topic in each round. Larger values reduce the likelihood of prematurely discarding topics whose relevant chunks may not be at the top of the similarity-based ranking, but may result in smaller values of `Relevance test budget` being spread across fewer topics and thus not capturing the full breadth of the data.
-- `Restart on irrelevant topics`. When this number of topics in a row fail to return any relevant chunks in their `Tests/topic/round`, return to the start of the topic ranking and continue testing `Tests/topic/round` text chunks from each topic with (a) relevance in the previous round and (b) previously untested text chunks. Higher values can avoid prematurely discarding topics that are relevant but whose relevant chunks are not at the top of the similarity-based ranking, but may result in a larger number of irrelevant topics being tested multiple times.
-- `Test relevant neighbours`. If a text chunk is relevant to the query, then adjacent text chunks in the original document may be able to add additional context to the relevant points. The value of this parameter determines how many chunks before and after each relevant text chunk will be evaluated at the end of the process (or `Relevance test budget`) if they are yet to be tested.
-- `Relevant chunks/answer update`. Determines how many relevant chunks at a time are incorporated into the extended answer in progress. Higher values may require fewer updates, but may miss more details from the chunks provided.
