How can I determine where or if a bus is used in a simulink model?

I have a complex simulink model that has dozens of busses defined. Some busses are identical but with different names. I have found others that I think are unused. I want to delete any unused busses to help simplify it. How do I find out where and if they are being used? I have tried "find" in the modeling tab, but that doesn't seem to work, at least nothing happens when I press it.

Hi,

From my understanding you are trying to minimize the number of busses/signals in your model which are being unused. One solution to that is logging the values of these busses and discard the ones which are not defined.

The following links should help you achive that.

Display Bus Information - MATLAB & Simulink (mathworks.com)

All of the buses that exist in a buses folder are setup automatically, so they all are defined. I'm trying to determine where/if they are used. Logging all the buses seems like a lot of work. I was hoping for something simpler, like a search. There are probably around 75 buses.

I've ran into the same problem.
