Thanks,

That took care of the problem. I had confined my search to Apple's documentation. I suppose I should have looked further afield then I did.

If you choose "Show Expert Preferences Notes" from the Xcode Help menu, the very first item is this:

It's not the first item on my machine. On my machine it's under the "General" section of that document which is closer to the end than the beginning.



• PBXCustomTemplateMacroDefinitions
A dictionary that provides extra macros for use in file and project templates. One, ORGANIZATIONNAME, is used in several of the standard templates and can be set in this dictionary to provide a default expansion. You can define and use your own macro names as well.

And when I searched for MyCompanyName *nothing* came up (except two samples showing how it is used). From scanning through this file, it's not clear that's how you set MyCompanyName, and consider the dozens of other expert preferences (why aren't these in the UI!?!?) it's unreasonable to expect newcomers to catch this. I didn't.


I'd say this particular feature is under-documented when a full-text search of the Xcode documentation, using the Xcode documentation search tool yields nothing at all.
