I was watching a video lecture from iTunes U., where instructor showed how one can take a debugger section of the Xcode and was able to pull that window away from the main.
Unfortunately, video showed instructions on how to do it in Xcode3. How might one do it in Xcode4?
How can one either detach a debugger section or, possibly, configure preferences to do it automatically?
Open a new tab, show the debugger (cmd-shift-Y) and drag the divider all the way to the top. Close the navigator (cmd-0) and inspector windows (cmd-opt-0), then drag the tab off into a new window.
If you name the tab before you tear it off, e.g., “Debugger”, then set up a Behavior in Xcode’s preferences ( Preferences -> Behaviors -> Run Starts -> Show Tab “Debugger” ), it’ll show that window when you run your app. It’ll even recreate it if you close it.
If you have access to the WWDC 2011 videos, “Maximizing Productivity in Xcode 4” has a lot of great info.
Here’s a screenshot before tearing the tab off:
