Thanks, is there a way to map a key to do this all this? I looked under 
“Behaviours” but it doesn’t seem relevant for this. I seem to remember a third 
party tool but that was a long time ago…….

No insult there as far as I can see and no insult was intended. Perhaps the 
phrase brain-dead might be slightly offensive in the right context. I really 
meant “odd to say the least”.

The only reason XCode usage is so high is that there is nothing else we can use 
to develop software for the Mac/iOS platform, if there were a modern day 
CodeWarrior then Apple would have to buy them again because no one would be 
using XCode.

The point XCode it *did* have all these features and more but they removed 
them! My app has 100% of the features (or will have when its finished) that my 
client asked for, if they ask me for a new feature then I add it. I don’t 
remove features unless I’m told to remove them. I’m a developer, that’s what 
developers do. I wasn’t aiming at the developer anyway, I was aiming it the 
person that wrote the specification - if anyone did write a specification. Also 
I don’t have the resources that Apple have and for a company that has more 
money and resources than some countries, XCode 4 is shocking.

Also the only reason a “Open in separate window” command is needed is because 
they removed the Split Screen feature from XCode 4 and there are other ways of 
opening in a separate window anyway.

Still we have lots of lovely animations which more than make up for the lack of 
built-in commands.

Cheers
Dave
