Xcode: Color highlight code/text on cursor blinking - xcode

In Android/Eclipse, if I single click on a word, all of its occurrences are color highlighted throughout the file.
Is the same possible in Xcode?
Is there a plugin for achieving it?
Is there any Automator Script/Service to achieve this ?

In xcode click into the word and then hover over it and you should see a little dropdown arrow appear to the right of the word. Click this arrow and choose 'edit all in scope'. This will highlight all occurrences in the file... and let you edit them all at once.

In older versions of Xcode, this looked as follows:
in XCode 12.0.1
there are 3 ways to hide or show Minimap.
first, you can do it with the Adjust editor option (see the following image).
next way: check or uncheck Minimap from Editor(menu) -> Minimap. (like following image)
and the last way you can use ⌃⇧⌘M and show or hide Minimap.
Navigate to Adjust Editor Options (at the top right corner, to the left of the Add Editor Below button) and uncheck Minimap (or press ^⇧⌘M).
This is called minimap window which give you insight of where you're in part of whole storyboard/code. This feature was introduced in Xcode11 and is quite useful.
You can show/hide simply by using shortcut key as: cmd + shift + ctrl + M.
Alternatively, you can choose 'Adjust Editor Options' i.e multi-lined stacked icon present on top right of Xcode. Deselect Minimap from dropdown list to hide it and Select to show it.

Microsoft Word Highlighting Text White

For some reason, whenever I create a Text Box and start typing, the background text is highlighted white and I can't make it transparent. This picture should explain everything:
I want to remove the highlighting so the gradient in the background shows through. I used to do things like this a lot, but for some reason Word won't let me now. Any suggestions?
I am on Word 2011 Mac
Got some clues here and finally found a solution for MSWord for Mac version 16.9:
Select the text you want to fix
Select "Design" Tab
Click "Page Borders"
Click the "Shading" Tab
Select Apply to "Text"
[Fill] is showing "No Color". Open the selection and re-select "No Color"
Hit "OK"
Worked for me. It is obviously a bug in Word.
Right-click the text box that you want to make invisible.
If you want to change multiple text boxes, click the first text box or shape, and then press and hold SHIFT while you click the other text boxes.
On the shortcut menu, click Format Text Box.
On the Colors and Lines tab, in the Fill section, click the arrow next to Color, and then click No Color.
On the Colors and Lines tab, in the Line section, click the arrow next to Color, and then click No Color.
Click OK. Your textbox's background is now invisible...
It seems the actual text highlight is your problem, so try:
Go into Borders and Shading, apply it to text, and set it to clear. Had me confused because I've never had to do this before.
As seen here.
I also searched around and had trouble finding this.
In Word for Mac 2011
Highlight the text
Click tables in the ribbon
Find the shading icon (looks like a paint bucket)
Click the down arrow next to the bucket and select No Fill
Change the text format from anything apart from Normal text.(important)
Solution 1
Select the Text box and go to the "format" tab,
modify the outline and fill options
if this isn't enough
Solution 2
select the Text box and right click for options
select the last option "format shape"

View is Clipping its Content error

I'm using Xcode 4.6. In a window I keep getting this "view is clipping its content" error and when I click on it, the XIB editor highlights a label. What is this error trying to tell me and how to I fix it?
First, clicking on the text "View is clipping..." will select the control that has the issue. it happens when you resize a text field too small for the inner text field cell to fit in. enlarging the control makes warning disappear. you can also select the inner cell and go to size inspector to see if there are options to make it smaller to match your desired overall size.
You have a carriage return / newline at the end of the text in your label. That empty line is part of the "content" which is larger than the "view". Get rid of your extra newline and you'll take care of this.
It's telling you that your constraints hasn't been set up correctly. You can resolve the by clicking on the view in question, then clicking on the small icon at the bottom and choose: "Reset to suggested constraints"
Or you could click on the little small orange (or red) arrow in your Document Outline (the list to the left of your view that shows all views), then click on Resolve Issue

Press Tab key, when the blue text is selected, press Enter.
Select using tab or mouse click
