Description

Generate Previews is both in tools and in config.
If they do the same thing, then 2 suggestions:

  1. specify a time for the generate-previews. I can specify a runtime but when does it start?
  2. merge the two separate modules into one, by adding a button 'Generate Previews NOW', and remove the one in 'tools'.

Research direction

Compare the Generate Previews entries in the tools and config modules, starting by reading both implementations and how the configured runtime is scheduled. Determine when the job starts and whether the two entries perform the same operation; done means one clear module offers both scheduling and a “Generate Previews NOW” action, with the duplicate tools entry removed.
