Press Ctrl+F or select Edit | Find | Find from the main menu. Using different options, you can narrow your search process, use regular expressions in your search, and manage your search results. Better to just use the shortcuts.You can quickly find and replace text strings in the current document. This one will just remain in the new configuration after you split the editor so it can be confusing sometimes. The split tab button is a bit weird though and breaks macOS convention, normally when buttons change on holding option, they revert to the original setting once you release it. To see your own changes there's also a button with 2 arrows in the top right, and the menu next to it allows choosing between a side by side view and inline view Not sure if I understand what you mean correctly, but that commit view counts as a normal editor tab, you can definitely have these side by side with any other tab they can be split however you like and you can move between them with shortcuts (though I find the trackpad faster)Įdit: Xcode doesn't have the tabs always visible by default, that's a setting called "navigation style" under Navigation UPDATE: In Xcode, you first have to double click on a commit or click on the file listed in the right explorer for a commit to open the according view, so it is not as immediate as in SmartGit where you can keep the according view open, but also very good.) It would seem like for app development most people either use Xcode (unlikely) or just write all their apps in cross platform frameworks. We believe that the time has come to sunset the product and focus our efforts in other directions. While we’ve had some growth in terms of adoption, we didn’t reach the market share we had hoped for.
CLION FIND AND REPLACE CODE
I suppose I wouldn't like writing code either if I had to work with Apple's painfully object oriented apis, it doesn't even feel like Swift, just objective-c with pretty syntax. However it seems like most people prefer the features and don't like writing as much, so I guess it is indeed sad that there's less choice now. Everything is enabled by default and the editor looks like a, just gets in the way of writing. I have an unnecessarily long settings.json file just to get VSCode to stop bothering me with too many features. Other editors like VSCode and most other IDEs are really bad at this. These are all just tools, the important part is the code. Using git from the terminal is the most reliable anyway. There isn't a 100 buttons and flashing icons to distract you, just the code, syntax highlighting and a lot of keyboard shortcuts errors even fade out nicely when you start typing. Personally I use Xcode (not even for app development) because it's simple. Unfortunately I might not have a choice which is sad. What I am really looking for is an editor which is helpful in writing code, Xcode aint it. I dont have a need for visual programming so all the nib/xib and xml based Xcode features are fluff I dont need. Being able to order the file structure and being able to create scopes to filter the project is fantastic for very large projects.VS Code is probably be able to fill the some blanks here. Advanced code editing features and actually getting indentation right when moving lines, this drives me bananas to wait for code formatting to do something the ide should do.The endless refactoring options Xcode can only dream of.Being able to use AI tools like coPilot if you want to improve your productivity via plugins.Version control workspaces which restore tabs based on your branches is such a beautiful feature when you have to work on multiple branches from time to time.I probably will continue using VC and merge tools through IntelliJ community edition. Version Control integration is second to none.This is my personal opinion and I understand that everybody has different requirements and preferences, but I have been using IntelliJ IDEs for more than 10years I came to love the features it has.
