Hi Tom,

I've been working with Xcode 3.2 for a couple of weeks now, and overall am very very impressed with it, but it's documentation window is a major step back.

Search results appear very very slowly,

This is unexpected. Does this reproduce for you consistently?

often in the wrong order.

Please elaborate. You can sort the API search results using the contextual menu. By default, they're sorted in alphabetical order.


The search results area gives less details about what it's found, and it's highly unpredictable if you try to start reading something before a search has finished.

What details do you miss? The new doc window in Xcode 3.2 reflects user feedback we've received over the years that the content area in the doc window was too small. Providing more space for the content required simplifying the search results UI. In general, that change has been very positively received.


Thank you,
Brent


Is it possible to use 3.1's documentation viewer with 3.2, or are there any 3rd party viewers that might ease my pain?


Thanks

Tom Davie
