CocoaDev

Edit AllPages

I am sorry if this is the wrong location to post but I have just started using XCode and don’t know where to get help.
I opened a Java project and then tried to open two .java files. Instead of opening the second on in a new window it just closed the open .java file and opened the new one in its place. I have mostly been coding in C with cocoa and had no problem like this. Now I can’t even open two .c files at the same time. I checked through the preferences but didn’t see anything saying only one window could be open.
I really need help. Thanks so much.

Do you have the Grouped option set on the toolbar? Open a .java or whatever file and click Grouped at the end of the toolbar to set it to Ungrouped. Now they won’t do that. –LoganCollins


Don’t take this the wrong way, but you should consider reading the fine manual. There’s a lot of good, important, and non-obvious information in the Xcode documentation, and being familiar with it will definitely improve your Xcode experience. For example: file:///Developer/ADC%20Reference%20Library/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/XcodeUserGuide20/Contents/Resources/en.lproj/ed_editor_window/chapter_19_section_2.html
