When I command-option-double-click the term UITableView in my code, the

initially displayed.

I don't think it's guessing. I think you have "Contains" as the search criterion (rather than Starts With/Prefix or Exact). Then, the list of results is merely sorted and the first in the list is what gets selected initially. It just so happens that, among API entries that contain UITableView, NSIndexPath(UITableView) comes lexically first.


You'll perhaps be happier with Starts With/Prefix. That will probably give you the behavior you're looking for.

Cheers,
Ken
