{{languages|Addon:Types Cleanup Tool}}

==What is it For?==
The '''{{man label|Type Types Cleanup Tool}}''' searches your database for records that contain "custom" Types, provides a filtered list allowing those records to be edited, and an option to delete or rename the custom type. Custom Types are recognized by Gramps but the various reports that Gramps can generate and other applications may not recognize or handle them.
==What causes the extra (Custom) Types?==
{{man warn|Warning|Proceeding with this tool may make unexpected changes to your data. While it is possible to '''Undo''' the changes made by this tool, it may be easier to recover from a backup.}}
[[File:TypesCleanup-Tool-Options-ReadingDatabase-51.png|thumb|right|450px|Type Types Cleanup Tool - progress window]]
This tool will display a progress window while examining the database for custom types and then display the result in the {{man label|[[Addon:Types_Cleanup_Tool#Type_Cleanup_Tool_window_resultsTypes_Cleanup_Tool_window_results|Type Types Cleanup Tool]]}} window.
