The higher up the target is, the farther apart the two masks become until the top one flies off the screen (even though a large portion of the color is still on the actual input image). Anyone know a fix for this?

I've noticed that as well when calibrating the camera values in LV. We are actually using C++ to program the robot so I haven't investigated the LV specific issue thoroughly. I think it has with the masks overlapping when the target is near. LV seems to artificially separate the masks with dark gap in between that only get larger as the target gets nearer. I would guess this has to do with LV's approach of drawing boxes around the expected area for the target and allowing little overlap. In C++ I compensated for the lost target (initially LV could see but C++ couldn't) at these ranges by allowing more overlap. Keep on mind, I program in C++ and have only glanced at the LV code (I understand LV), so my understanding and guesses could be poorly concieved (but I thought they were worth stating)
