I never found that file, when I was looking for a solution, because I don't think that way. I really hate "secret" files. There is absolutely no good reason, in my opinion, to have a mechanism like that.


Now I have to decide if I should go back to my original user account or just forge ahead.....

I'm sorry to tell you, I might have figured this out.

In your home folder is a dirty secret file .XcodeDefaultPerspective.perspective...

Kill that file -- it seems to pollute new projects. And then, in each of your existing xcode projects, do a "Show Package Contents" and kill the files that start with <username>.*. Xcode will "virginize" them, I guess.

There's a lot to learn with the new Xcode, but having an implicit Xcode 2 interface presented makes a lot of sense, and I understand why it's being done this way. But I want to dive in and learn the new stuff...

Perhaps it was somewhere in the release notes....

I tried just about everything I could think of to to get to the the "virgin" version of Xcode 3 in my default user account. My solution was to create a new user account and migrate my mail and other necessary items over.

Not the most pleasant method, I'm still finding things I need to move over, but the only way I've found.

I work on a laptop, and *love* the all-in-one Xcode layout. I've just upgraded to Leopard, and so far, so good. My C++ code builds, stuff runs as expected.

However, considering the cruft of settings inherited from Xcode 1 - > 2 -> 3 I logged in via a vanilla ( emergency ) user account to see what a completely virgin Xcode 3 should behave like. I saw that with all-in-one selected, I get a completely different toolbar, with a different "page" selector ( with only two entries ). I also get a different set of widgets to put in the toolbar.

From my normal account, I'm seeing a toolbar like I had in Xcode 2. I've deleted my preferences, I've deleted the stuff in AppSupport/Xcode. I see this ( which is my old Xcode 2 toolbar ) with empty new projects as well as old projects.

The new toolbar with two modes seems to make more sense with the new "blending" of debugging and running, and I'm wondering what gunk I've dragged with me across multiple Xcode updates, and how I can clean up. Xcode 3 seems like a big step forward, but if it's acting funny because of old pref data, I'd like to know how to "virginize" it so I can move forward with the rest of you.


Thanks,
