I'm starting to use QT creator and FakeVim mode. Inside VIM I use CTRL+U (Scroll window Upwards in the buffer) and CTRL+D (Scroll window Downwards in the buffer) the whole time.
Problem: CTRL+D works as expected inside QT creator, but unfortunately the key-combination CTRL+U seem to interfere with some other setting (maybe "Select the current block") and begins marking a lot of text at the same time it's scrolling upwards.
So: CTRL+D = scrolls down, no "block selecting"-stuff going on.
CTRL+U scrolls up and at the same time it begins highlighting (block selection), which is really annoying.
Attempted: Among other things, I tried googling and found: https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-keyboard-shortcuts.html - and tried both combinations of the value "Enable smart selection changing" - but it ditn't help on my CTRL+U-issue...
Question: Anyone knows how I can make CTRL+U only scroll up, instead of selecting/highlighting a block while it scrolls up?
Just for the record (it seems we're not many qtcreator/fakevim users but hopefully it can help someone else that) I found the solution and will answer myself:
First: Related to the issue is: In the "Options -> FakeVim -> General" dialog, under "Vim Behaviour" disable "Use search dialog" will get rid of (a similar) annoying vim-search "begin highlighting after search"-problem which is triggered when using "/" to search...
For the CTRL+U highlighting issue: The issue is resolved by disabling the option "Pass control keys" in the same option setting dialogue.

I tried ctrl- which was suggested somewhere online, but that makes the font smaller. (ctrl+ though does not undo that, so I had to restart LightTable to get back to normal).
Pressing ctrl enter I can manage to write and use "jump to definition", but obviously I will not be going through that every time....
If this should have helped, it is rather confusing what the period and comma here mean:
So do the built-in default keyboard shortcuts allow that, and how do they allow increasing font size?
Hit cmd/ctrl + enter
in the pane that this brought in: type "jump to" to see the command "jump to...", plus its keyboard shortcut. you can select the command from there but that would suck if it were the only way to invoke commands, so observer the keyboard binding you get there: (in the blue circles below)
notice that keys are separated by dashes in the display of the keyboard shortcut, so do not actually enter a dash because it is not part of the command and you will be doing crazy stuff if you assume otherwise
same thing for finding out how to zoom: enter "zoom" in that pane
unset you hair on fire

While debugging in Qt Creator (ver 3.4.2), if I hit the escape key (which I tend to do often to declutter my work space), then all of the debugger views including the debugger toolbar become hidden (as expected), but later I can't get them back. If I go under Qt Creator's main menu->Window, then Views is disabled.
Here's an example of a basic window before I click the escape key. Notice I have all of the debugging views showing (i.e. Breakpoints, Stack, Locals and Expressions, etc...)
Here's an example of my window after I've clicked the escape key. Notice how all of the debugging windows are hidden (as expected). My question is, now how do I get the windows back? You can see how the "Views" submenu under the "Window" menu is disabled.
Is there some sort of "Show Debugger Toolbar" keyboard shortcut? Or is there another menu somewhere to get this back? Any help would be much appreciated.
Under the Window menu, enable Show Mode Selector. This will show a strip down the left of your window where you should see a Debug tab you can click on to put Qt Creator back in Debug mode.
In Xcode 4.3.1, I am having extreme difficulty whenever I try to change a build setting such as "Other Linker Flags".
If I double-click, a pop-up shows which ostensibly allows you to add/remove values. However, there is no "done" button and all key combinations I've tried (enter/command-enter/etc...) fail to commit the values I've entered.
It is possible to enter a value without the pop-up by /slow/-double-clicking (WTF, Apple?!?) the edit line. This works, but why the heck does is the pop-up the default double-click result when it seems to be totally useless, misleading and annoying?!?!
A similar question is Editing Build Settings in xcode 4 but bugloaf's question of what to do when there is no "done button" remained unanswered.
This is more to do with how to interact with popovers in OS X in general. "Transient" popovers force you to click outside them to dismiss. Whatever changes you make inside them should always be "committed" by the time the popover is dismissed. This is standard Mac behavior.
So to answer the unanswered question: Click outside the popover to dismiss/commit.
As you ssuggested, you can slow-double-click (once to select, pause, once to begin editing cell) to edit text cells inline without the popover. This is also standard Mac behavior.
The double-click action is a secondary effect and can be taken to mean "give me a bigger editor for this field" - this seems to be just Xcode behavior. File bug reports if you think there should be a better mechanism. Be prepared to describe a better mechanism.
I have a window, a label, a button, and an NSObject.
The first thing I want to do is change the NSObject's class to that of my custom controller.
The thing is, I can't seem to select it. Whatever object I select, the inspector panel says "No Selection". Why? I'm baffled.
accepted answer did not work for me, but answer by 'NSExplorer' did (In Xcode4, the new interface builder says "no selection"). i slightly modified answer from 'NSExplorer'
.. switch to another (non IB) file in the current tab
.. switch back to the IB file (eg. Main.storyboard)
the Attributes Inspector will magically show in the new tab.
I just had to close the assistant editor and the debug area and then it magically showed up. If you don't have the assistant editor open then all you need to do is open it, then close it again. That should fix it too.
If you don't know what the assistant editor is I have highlighted it in red:

The interface builder in XCode 4 is incredibly buggy. I'm also having frequent issues like this. Have you tried closing XCode and re-opening your project? Sometimes, resizing the entire XCode window also seems to reset the interface builder layout.
Make sure you're selecting the objects from the XIB document panel (Where it says "Objects") on the left. Sometimes clicking the actual UI controls doesn't catch in the inspector panel, for whatever reason.
For me, I had the bottom, debugger stretched all away to the top. It said "no selection." By Taping on hide/open bottom debugger twice, you can get the main component back again.
If you have multiple windows, close the storyboard file and open it again, it worked for me
Am I crazy or is it not possible to close other tabs in XCode 4? I have about 7 tabs opened littering my workspace. I right click the one tab I'm interested in to bring up the context menu. I can see options to open a "new tab", "close tab", "close other tabs", and "move tab to new window". However, the only option that is not greyed out is "new tab". Do I have to put XCode in some magical state to enable the other options? Are these options merely eye candy, teasing me with hopes and aspirations of things I might like to do? Is this some weird kind of year long April fools gag? Inquiring minds wanna know.
*Update Uploading a HocusFocus screen capture for clarity...
You should be able to hover over the tab and click on the cross that appears on the left hand side of the tab. However, if you are not seeing this cross for some strange reason - you should be able to close the current tab in XCode (similar to many other OSX applications) by pressing CMD+W on your keyboard.
While the context menu doesn't work when you right click on a tab, you can achieve all of the same results by using keyboard shortcuts (which do seem to work as expected). Each of the 4 options on the context menu maps to the following shortcuts;
New Tab: CMD + T
Close Tab: CMD + W
Close Other Tabs: CMD + ALT + W
Move Tab to Other Window: I couldn't find a keyboard shortcut, but you can click and drag the tab away from the menu bar.
There doesn't appear to be a sensible way to enable the context menu on the tabs at the current time.
Late to the party but are/were you in full screen? Try again after quitting full screen...
Just click: View -> Hide tab bar
I had a similar issue (I say 'similar, because using Cmd+W. Cmd+Alt+W' didn't work for me).
In my case the tab had a cross on the top right, grayed out and nothing happens when clicking on it. If I opened a new tab, I could close either of the extra tabbed editors, but not both(!)
In View > Editor, selecting 'Standard' removes the 'second tabbed editor'.
