Many items missing from “Right-Click Menu” on top-level branch after Splitter.

To reproduce:

1. Start PWP 8.0.478
2. Create a Color Chart Test Pattern
3. Add a Splitter after the Color Chart
4. On Branch 1 of the splitter, add a Brightness Transformation and select no change to the brightness.
5. Press OK to complete the Brightness Transformation
6. Note that the Right-Click Menu on the Brightness Transformation Thumbnail doesn’t match the Right-Click Menu on the Branch 2 Thumbnail.

This is normal as there are a limited number of operations you can perform on a Splitter or Branch.

However, it does look like Add Snippet After... should be in the Branch menu (but not in the Splitter menu).

From a user perspective, it seems silly to me to treat the branch thumbnail any different than other thumbnails. For example, why should a user be required to add a transformation from the Transformation Menu instead of the Right-Click Favorites menu for this special case?

The right-click menu for Branches does include Favorites, but not the right-click menu for Splitters since you cannot insert a transformation between a splitter and a branch.

Oops. It was the File Save Right-Click Menu item I was thinking about. Was setting up a Workspace to save an image variant without the "Not at the End of the Branch" pop-up.

The File submenu is omitted because the Branch itself has no image to save.

Looks like I need to start over with this, but I'm out of time for now.
