To write a WYSIWYG type interface for this is a really complex job, it needs a lot more work on the UI then is currently in XCode 4.

This must be some strange usage of the work “fine” I have previously been unaware of.

IMO, its just about usable about half the time and if I have to do any real changes to a View Hierarchy I usually end up removing all existing constraints and any “Layout Only” Views and starting again.

Compared to what could be done in a decent UI XCode is terrible. I didn’t really expect them to change XCode that radically, but if there was a third party tool that worked with XCode that had a really cool UI and other snazzy features I would buy a copy!

Cheers
Dave
