I'm guessing that the "strange offset" you mention in your movie is
due to inconsistent line endings in your source file. If you quit
Xcode, open the file up in another editor such as BBEdit, force all

Xcode again, I'll bet that the problem goes away.
Yes, yes. Before reading Dan's message, I'd come to the same
conclusion. But I still think it's buggy.
Months ago, I'd seem the same "offset" behavior when "jumping to
definition" and also with the red and yellow markers that appear in
the margin after a build. Typically, I get a bunch of warnings in the
Build Transcript that say "line X", but the corresponding yellow
marker appears at line X+2. Indeed, many project files were inherited
from a CodeWarrior project, and since I explicitly set the "explicit"
line ending on that file in the movie to "unix" I haven't seen it since.
But, months ago I did go into my Xcode prefs and set Text Editing >
Line Endings
For new files: Unix (LF)
For existing files: Unix (LF)
Does the latter setting not mean that whenever Xcode overwrites any
file, it will change all line endings to unix?? I expect that this
should have cleaned out any non-Unix line endings by now but I still
have this problem. With hundreds of files, I don't want to manually
change each of them using the Info window. My Groups have "no
explicit line endings", and I suppose I could try and change them
there, but those settings default to my Xcode preferences if they are
not set. Setting things in children individually instead of
defaulting to a parent setting will cause more confusion later.
Does anyone know, would it solve this problem to do a multi-file
search/replace on my whole "Projects" folder in BBEdit and change all
line endings? I'd have to be careful and do some controlled tests
first.

Oh, very disappointing to see that the problem might keep coming back
if I paste in code from other sources :(
