Description 

The following bug report has been submitted:
Platform:        Darwin-19.0.0-x86_64-i386-64bit
ChimeraX Version: 0.91 (2019-10-25)
Description
There are a lot of tools under menu Tools / General, enough that it makes sense to make some new submenus under Tools and redistribute some of those tools under General to the new categories.  Maybe Elaine could look at this.

Resolution: → not a bug
Status: accepted → closed

The plan is to pull tools into non-General categories once there is more than one tool for that new category. Distances got moved into Structure Analysis once the H-Bonds tool finally got made. The upcoming Clashes and Contacts tools will also go in that category. As part of that branch I moved Blast Protein and Modeller Comparative into the Sequence category, so that will show up when I finish the Clashes/Contacts tools, likely next week.

Anyway, this problem will go away "organically" as more tools get made.
