"AppleScript" pulldown menu

Anything exist that would re-add the Open ScriptEditor.app menuitem in addition to the Open Script Debugger.app menuitem in the AppleScript menu in the menubar?

What MacOS? On Sequoia 15.5 (24F74) here I have the ā€˜open Script Debugger’ option in my Script Menu. If I set Script Editor as my default Script Editor it offers to open that editor. I don’t believe I have ever had more than the designated default editor listed there.

High Sierra. That’s as high as this particular computer allows.

I don’t recall setting a default, and setting such would come in handy for generating documentation graphics. I want SD7 myself (especially since it’s installed already), but not everyone will have done that; likely, no one else will. May need to tell someone how to do something and it’d be nice to by-and-large do the exact same thing as them.

But I can live with an either-or situation as well.

You could just write a script, and put that in the Script Menu?

tell application "Script Editor" to activate

This would be my suggestion.

Was there a setting that told SD to replace ScriptEditor?

The global preference for the default script editor is set in Script Editor.app, in the ā€œSettingsā€¦ā€ (formerly ā€œPreferencesā€¦ā€) window, ā€œGeneralā€ tab.

Yes, its still there:
