I accidentally open one more window in Xcode (not a new tab). Now for one of my projects I see 2 windows in Window menu. I don't know if I am not make a mistake - think that those are 2 windows. Please tell me if I am wrong and how to close or open new window in Xcode?
I know one way to open new window, maybe someone want too
To open new window within same project firstly open a new tab with CMD+T then drag tab title until you see window miniature, release it. Done!

So, it's a simple question. When i try to open Xcode via macOS Dock, there is a dot bottom of the app icon, but it isn't opening any windows. So I have to open the window by clicking File > Open...
If it isn't normal, then please tell me how to fix it.
I have never seen or had this issue, but I did find this source: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3854586
"In Xcode 4 choose Window > Welcome (or command - shift - 1) to Xcode to open the welcome window that gives you an option to create a new Xcode project. Select the Show this window when Xcode launches checkbox to have the welcome window open when you launch Xcode."
Is it possible to detach the console/log window in Xcode 6 to Xcode 9? If so, how do you detach it from the main console, into it's own window?
This question was previously asked for Xcode 4 but the answer doesn't work for Xcode 6 to Xcode 9 -
Stackoverflow - Same Question for Xcode 4
See the attached screenshot for illustration of the console/log view in question
Well, better late than never....
I found that I could maneuver and detach the console.
Add new tab.
Name the tab (eg Debugger).
In the new tab, expand the console so it fills the main window.
Right-click the new tab and select open in new window.
You'll have to quit Xcode and restart it to maintain the new window, rather than close projects or windows separately.
Apologize for the delay. Hope this is still useful..
UPDATE
This still works with Xcode 11.3!
To stop seperating the window : Xcode > Behaviors > Edit Behaviors
Then set as in the screenshot:
Solution without restarting Xcode. Thank #David DelMonte for illuminating me.
You can change Xcode behaviors configuration to open a new tab named Debugger in a separate window when project start running.
Then expand console view to full window in the debugger tab, Xcode will remember your reforms.
Is it possible to have one assistant editor (on my second monitor for example) which always shows the counterpart to the file which I am currently editing (on my first monitor)?
I can create a new tab, drag it out into its own window and show the assistant editor but of course it doesn't show the counterpart to the file I am editing on my primary window/monitor.
Is there any way to make it do this?
No there isn't. But you can always send feedback to apple regarding what you'd like to see in future updates. If this request comes from many devs, maybe there is a chance to see it added to xcode.
Agreed. With the focus on multi-monitor support this is a feature that has been missing.
In Xcode 7.3, I just double click a file in the Project Navigator view and a new editor window with the file is opened.
Is it possible to detach the console/log window in Xcode 4?
Even better, how?
Go to Xcode preferences, and open the Behavior tab.
Tell Xcode to open a tab called "Debugger" when "Run Pauses" or "Run Starts". Then run it, and break that Debugging tab out into another window (drag it off the tab bar into its own window by just letting it drop outside the current window). Now reform it to your hearts content; it will stay that way. Also don't forget the little controls at the top right of the console window that slide the local variable display out of the way so you can have a full-width console on demand. I am not sure about keyboard shortcuts for that yet.
I usually keep the Debugging tab and one other tab in a separate window, for debugging tasks, and all my other editing tabs in a different window (and the debugging window on a separate monitor with the simulator). With the settings above it also means that, while editing a debugger reaching a breakpoint, it will not interrupt my editing by suddenly bringing forth the console.
Sure, create a new tab, drag it off the original window, and expand the debugger area to be the whole tab. Now, whether Xcode will remember that tab and its placement is another matter. File a bug with Apple to let them know your displeasure.
Taking jshier's advice a step further, you can do File -> New Window, and expand the debug window to take up the entire window. But you have to manually expand it every time you open it. Ugh.
There was a window listing all Swing controls at the left bottom of NetBeans window. I guess I closed it for some reason. And now I cannot find it anymore. Anyone knows what the name of that window is and how to open it?
The window is called the 'Inspector'. You can open it using the Navigating->Inspector item of the Window menu.
