Remove unneeded tags and opts: Tidy.js
This tool removes tags and options that do not effect the output.
During the course of editing, it is easy to set options that are superfluous, such as setting a slur direction on a note that is not slurred. Tidy.js will remove most of these.
Specifically, it will remove:
- Visibility:TopStaff on Flows and Endings
- Visibility:Never on Instruments and MPC's
- Visibility:Always on everything else
- ArticulationsOnStem where there are no articulations
- Tie direction for notes that are not tied
- Slur direction for notes that are not slurred
Using this tool before posting a clip to this forum will remove most of the extraneous items.
Using the tool on each staff before the final save should make the file easier to edit months later.
