Menus 4.png Menu item Description
Find Opens a Find dialog to search for . See Finding variables.
Find Next Finds the next object that partially matches the previously defined text value. See Finding variables.

Make Alias Creates an alias for the selected object(s). See Alias nodes.
Make Importance Creates an importance variable (and index) to compute the importance (rank correlation) of all uncertain inputs for the selected variable. See Importance analysis.
Make User Input Node Creates an input node for the selected node(s).
Make User Output Node Creates an output node for the selected node(s). See Using output nodes.
Show By Identifier Shows the identifier instead of title of each object in the current diagram, edit table, Result window, or Outline window. Toggle to show title again.
Show With Values Shows the mid values of the variable and all its inputs in each Object window. See Showing values in the Object window.
