Description

Hi,

I started learning animation in Blender 2.80
I read https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/rigging/armatures/bones/structure.html but I think the mention of the "Armature tab" to display local axes is not obvious.

In the UI, the tab is named "Object Data" and not "Armature".

There are a few other cases when Armature tab is used in the docs.
Should they all be replaced with Object Data or should Blender be changed?

We don't handle this kind of potential improvement in the manual as bugs. This is more something for:
