Extra "Where Used" menu item?

[jerryg2003]

Version 5.7.2, Windows 11

This command selection is as expected:

Tools==>Where Used
but also have:

Tools==>LogixNG==>Where Used
...with a slightly different popup window display, missing the help line.

Is this intended?

The reason for two different "Where Used" is that the first is generic for JMRI but it only shows the LogixNG action/expression that uses a bean.

The second "Where Used" is specific to LogixNG and have the benefit that it shows more detailed information about where a bean is used. The LogixNG, the ConditonalNG, and so on. It makes it much easier to find the action/expression that actually uses the bean.

The reason the second "Where Used" doesn't have help is that I'm not good at writing documentation. So I focus on making the code work. Then, if someone wants, it's easy to add the documentation too.

Daniel, Jerry was referring to the window help references. PR #13152 updates the missing window help references. Dave Sand

So Tools==>LoxigNG==>Where Used provides different capability from Tools==>Where Used. According to @danielb987, it provides more details about LNGs so maybe the menu item should have a different name, e.g.

Tools==>LogixNG==>Where Used (Detail)
