Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. (Didn't realize you could omit Option; that must have been a left-over habit from Xcode 2.) What I'm asking is how to do exactly that in Xcode 4. I take it, though, that the answer is it can't be done.
What angers me is that Xcode so obviously *could* do this. The underlining shows that it knows *where* the symbol is. The fact that it displays the correct info in Quick Help shows that it knows *what* the symbol is. The fact that you can click in Quick Help to jump right to the correct API shows that it knows where the full documentation on this symbol is. But it won't take you directly from the symbol to the full documentation on it. m.
