You are right. Just subscribed to Xcode list. This thread ends
here, I will continue it on the Xcode list.

I've seen a problem that sounds similar to this:
1. Click once on a symbol in the upper half of the Xcode API search
window. The last symbol I looked at in that class or function
reference appears in the bottom half.
2. Click a second time on the symbol in the upper half. The symbol
documentation appears correctly below.
This sound like your issue?
(Also, it goes without saying that this isn't Cocoa-related. Should
probably go to the Xcode list.)

Hi Ronald,
Yes, I know about the option double-click as well. It also causes
the same problem that I have with the documentation window.
The problem seems intermittent. I just option double-clicked on
NSRect in the code window. The documentation window popped up from
lurking in the background, correctly displayed NSRect in the top
half of the window (plus NSRectArray, NSRectClip etc... below it),
but in the bottom half of the window, it shows me NSRange! Before
NSRange was displayed on the lower half, I saw it transition from
the page that was showing there previously (which was not
NSRange.) So, I had to click on NSRect in the top half to force
the bottom half to sync up.
I think this problem occurs only after building and/or running the
project. Something seems to get messed up.
By the way, I am using the all-in-one layout. Could this be a
factor? I notice an additional visual bug using this layout (don't
know if it occurs in the other layouts as this is the only one I
use). Sometimes, after debugging and/or building the project (thus
it switches to the debugger view in the layout), any changes that I
make in the code that appears in the debug view do not echo as I
type them. The charges are actually made in the file (as is
apparent when I switch back to to project detail view (the main
editor view), but they are just not echoed onto the editor window
in debug view.
Weird, huh?

Whenever I need to search for something, I hit Command-` to switch

search field (API search, usually). Then, I hit Return.
Just to check, are you aware of using Option-double-click on a
symbol in your code to jump to the documentation for that symbol?
Most of the time, I don't get the correct method shown in the
bottom half of the help window. The method is listed in the top
half of the window correctly. So, I end up having to move the
mouse to the top half of the window and clicking on the symbol for
it to properly display on the lower half of the window.
Can you provide specific examples of API searches that don't put
the result you want at the top?
