In most of Apple's applications, pressing Command + Alt + F will set
focus on the "main" search field belonging to the window (Mail, Safari
etc.). In Xcode's documentation window, it would be nice to be able to
get there by using the same shortcut, so that one does not have to tab
all over the place to get there.

According to these old release notes, such a functionality has been
there: http://developer.apple.com/releasenotes/DeveloperTools/RN-DocumentationXcode2_3/index.html

Am I missing something, or is this just not implemented in Xcode 3?


Hej Mattias,

I can't reproduce that problem, for me it seems to work as you suggest: Hitting Cmd+Alt+F moves the focus to the search field, without making changes to the selection in either the sidebar or the scope bar. Could it be that you have modified your Key Bindings in the preference panel? Does it work if you invoke it from the menu bar: "View > Detail"?

Please file a bug report if you know of a way to reproduce this problem.
