2) The Recent Projects and Recent Files submenus off the File menu are empty. Further, LaunchBar doesn't see any recent projects for Xcode either. So I assume the recent projects aren't being populated in xcode's preferences plist. Finally, opening com.apple.Xcode.plist I see "NSRecentXCProjectsDocuments" has zero entries.

This is an intentional (although, IMHO, misguided) change on Apple's part. It's not specific to Xcode, it affects all Cocoa apps. The change is that the setting for Number of Recent Items - Documents in the Appearance pane of System Preferences no longer just affects the Recent Items submenu of the Apple menu. It affects all Recent Items menus in all Cocoa apps.


One solution would be to change that setting in System Preferences and relaunch Xcode.

The other solution is to do something like this:

defaults write com.apple.Xcode NSRecentDocumentsLimit -int 10

That sets the same preference, but only within the Xcode application domain rather than the global domain. You'd have to do something similar for other applications, if they don't provide a GUI for setting that preference for themselves.

Regards,
Ken
