Xcose doesn't seem to provide this. Although I seem to have a similar panel arrangement the error messages appear in a separate window. <snip>

Try the Errors and Warnings smart group. It appears in your Groups & Files list.

I found this shortly after I wrote my message. I have to explicitly select the Errors and Warnings item in the left column in order to show the error messages in the top panel.

In the Xcode Preferences (Building), you can tell the Errors & Warnings Smart Group to open "Always", "Never", "On Errors" or "On Errors or Warnings". Same for the Build Window.


Also, you're probably already doing this, but under the View menu you can tell Xcode to show the Embedded editor. This puts the text editor in the lower pane of the main Xcode window.

<snip> Fine in Project Builder, but again Xcode puts the system output into a separate window so with limited screen space I can look at the source code OR the output, but not both.

Have you unfurled the Console Drawer? If you have a narrow screen, you might not see it on the toolbar. It's at the far right.

I'm not seeing that. I thought at first you might have the answer. I have followed the often irate discussion on the iCal forum when the Get info moved from a separate windows to a drawer which went undetected by all those users who were already using the full screen.


I have moved the Xcode window around and I don't see any drawer. My toolbar does not mention a Console drawer either, even if I look at all the alternatives in the Customise ToolBar panel. Maybe this is a difference between Cocoa and WebObjects (I'm working on WebObjects). The debug menu has "Show Console", but it is greyed out. Show Run Log is active, and that controls the separate window I am seeing. Rather confusingly the Clear Console command at the bottom of the Debug menu applies to the Run Log.

What I was hoping for was to be able to see this Run Log text in the top panel of the IDE, thus making it possible to view the Run Log and the source code on the same screen at the same time without juggling around with two windows competing for space.

Any other hints about this Console Drawer? I can't find it. Maybe it doesn't appear unless I write to the "Console", and what I'm using is the "System Log"

I'm with Denis on this. I don't see a toolbar option for something called the "Console Drawer".
