Xcode seems obsessed with paths. If my cursor stays over a file in my
project window, a help tag appears to show the file's path.
Unfortunately that tends to obscure the names of the files
immediately below the one under the cursor. This seems kind of
pointless. Once I have my project set up I don't need this
information to be quite so readily available. Can I turn those help
tags off?
Worse, during compilation, Xcode displays the paths of the files
it's compiling. I don't need to see the entire path. I just want to
see the name of the file. I only have one source file with any given
name in my project, so seeing the path is not helpful during
compilation. Displaying the paths just makes it a lot harder to
follow what's being compiled because it puts me in the position of
trying to read the names of files at the ends of path strings whose
lengths vary, so the file names are jumping left and right as the
paths change length. It also forces me to make the build results
window something like 1300 pixels wide just so I can actually see the
names of files with longer paths. Is there any way to have Xcode just
display the names of the files as it compiles them?
Thanks,
Larry
