That behavior is correct, selecting plugins from the menu just shows
their help, rendered in the viewrendered pane.  Apart from sum plugins
which have sub-menus, in which case the help is on the "About..."
entry, and other actual actions are on the rest of the submenu.

See below.

Sounds like the docs. might be out of date, if that's the case you
could file a bug report if you want.

In the minibuffer, type vr<tab> to list the viewrendered commands:

  vr
  vr-hide
  vr-lock-toggle
  vr-pause-play
  vr-show-toggle
  vr-update

You can also use the context menus on the pane dividers, particularly
Open window -> Viewrendered and Insert followed by selecting
Viewrendered from the Actions button created when you do an insert.

However this latter approach allows you to open multiple viewrendered
windows which may not all respond to the vr minibuffer commands.

Hope that helps.
