If I understand the current discussion correctly, Apple has removed this capability for Xcode 4. I hope that I have simply misunderstood the discussion. :-)

Me too, but if there's a way to make the UI useful, I don't see how yet. A lot of visibility into the build process seems hidden now. Where are all the build settings? How do I select the SDK or device I'm building for? Where's the Build button? Why are all the buttons unlabeled? Is the Toolbar customizable? If so I didn't see it in Preferences... Makes you wonder if they use this themselves...
I took Xcode 4 off. It was complaining about all sorts of things being deprecated, etc, and I certainly don't have time to learn how to care for and feed this beast right now. I can now build again using 3.2.5.
Is there a video or something to show how to use Xcode 4? Isn't it a sign of poor design if the UI isn't intuitive?
