  Have you tried 'class refs (N)' menu item in the context menu of
class pane (the second from left)?

  Many occurence of the Dictionary class reference seem to create new
instance of it and assign it to an instance variable.  You can then
try the 'inst var refs...' menu item to see how the variable is used.
