Description Milan Kubec 2005-03-14 10:48:22 UTC 
[dev-200503131900, JDK 1.5.0_02]

View menu contains menuitem 'Documentation Indicies' but it seems to me as wrong
because menu View is all about what *part of IDE* will be visible and what will
be hidden. But Documentation Indicies is in fact help that shows registered
javadoc for some APIs, so IMO it should go under Help menu.
Comment 1 Patrick Keegan 2005-03-14 11:09:52 UTC 
I think this is a UI issue. I tend to agree that the Javadocs would go in the
Help menu, but we would have to juggle other menu items there as well.
Comment 2 jrojcek 2005-10-14 14:04:22 UTC 
I agree with moving it to the Help menu. We will do it after 5.0.
Comment 3 John Jullion-ceccarelli 2006-08-15 07:59:52 UTC 
Please rename the index to "Javadoc References". Put it above the Java
BluePrints Solutions Catalog in the Help menu.
