It sounds like you guys are making a lot of really great changes,
but could you consider bringing back single window mode? I find
that with lots of projects open or when working on a small screen,
it's great to just have 1 place to look for
build/debug/find/editing info, unless I specifically choose to open
a new editor window. Expose helps, but it's still not as fast as
single-window mode. That's one of the biggest reasons I am not as
efficient in Xcode as PB.
Exactly -- I feel less efficient in Xcode for the very same reason.
Just to give a voice to the other side of the argument, I prefer
Xcode's multi-window mode... but then I have a large screen.
The issue here, as has already been pointed out, is that
ProjectBuilder allowed for extreme flexibility, satisfying *both*
camps. Difficult to accept that the latest and greatest does not
offer *at least* the same flexibility (if not more, given that it's a
"new" tool).
As I already said off-list, ProjectBuilder had a slight tendency
towards single-window mode even if configured not to behave that way.
Also, its windows took up more space on the screen.
I do understand the point of view that Apple have broken your way of
working, which is frustrating, but in the process they happen to have
made it better for me... there are a lot of complaints about Xcode from
various quarters, but I just thought that it'd be nice for them to hear
that people *do* like the changes they've made.
Kind regards,
Alastair.
