These commands invoke an operation very similar to the resolver, except that they search for sequences of up to three calls that make the setup nicer.
The normalize
command reduces
various matrices, such as 4x4, into an 8-person setup. It uses a variety
of phantom-like concepts to do its work.
Be aware that the phantom-like concepts that this command uses are not
the only ways to get out of large matrix setups.
There are a number of calls,
like press,
truck, loop, squeeze, Z axle, and finish a long trip
that are also useful.
The normalize
operation does not search for such things. It is only
intended to search for things that might not be obvious.
The standardize
command turns the setup into an 8-person setup
in which people are facing in "reasonable" directions. That is, it
gets out of T-bone setups. It uses both plain calls and calls with
concepts.
If you have selected toggle concept levels
,
these commands may
make use of concepts that are not legal at the chosen level. This is sometimes
useful in emergencies.
