Re: Please explain how they line up?

…and I was wondering if it’s worth organising the tunings into families (as you observe, they’re mostly related). This may be helpful to others - perhaps the explanation is useful?
As some stage I may rearrange, or sub-divide the Touchboard Map home page since it's grown quite a bit. I'll consider, but might not use, your ideas when I do. Thanks for desrcibing the intesreting concept.

It’s interesting to note that Classic (10 & 12), DBM10, and FB10 all have fret marker note alignment as we were discussing above.
If you look at my custom tunings I often include comments about the inlay relationships. The patterns of those sort of relationships were significant drivers along the exploration path. Among the standard tunings that sort of comment is currently only on the Mirrored 4ths page, & it's there mainly because that was the starting point for my explorations. Such comments might get added to other standard pages over time.
On the 10 string pages I'll be including comments such as "Highest 5 of each side of Classic 12" & "Inner 10 of Classic 12". Those two comments are already in place on the Classic 10 & Baritone Melody pages.

Another suggestion (this may hurt your head…):
It would be great to compare two tunings side-by-side on one page!...Viewing a 10- and 12-string tuning together is also useful. Just a thought?
No pain experienced at all. Side by side comaprison can be handy. I can also be achieved quite easily with the existing pages. Just open up the pages you want to comapre in different browser windows & put those windows side by side. Here's an example I just set up & took a screenshot of.

That simple process seems like an adequate solution to me?

Thanks again, it’s a very useful gadget.
I've leveraged some html & css knowledge I have from the days when webpages were coded by hand, to build static maps that I find useful. I have no desire to make the maps any more sophisticated than that, but I'm happy to share them and I hope others may find them useful too at the level they are.
If someone wishes to pick up the ball & run with it. They are welcome...
