SimI can't believe I just now learned this in Xcode
You can select some text, cut it with ⌘X, select a folder in the navigator and paste with ⌘V, and it puts it in a new file
And all this time I've kept all my code in one giant file
Marcel@simsaens wtf, this is so cool
Toni Granados@tngranados that was my reaction
Nico Reese@simsaens I need to remember that. I like to prototype features in one huge file and then refactor it out when it's working. This makes it a lot faster.
Zipkid@simsaens Seems it only works for some languages. Does not paste/create file for yaml f.i.
Chris Ross@simsaens @stroughtonsmith what version of Xcode is that? Trying with 15.3 and it doesn't work.
@crutlefish @stroughtonsmith I'm using Xcode 16 beta, though my friend @aripepear showed this to me in Xcode 15.4
@simsaens @stroughtonsmith @aripepear
Interesting - could only get it to work on the 16.0 beta, 15.[34] didn't work at all. Very cool feature.
appfrosch@simsaens saw this mentioned in Xcode Essentials https://developer.apple.com/wwdc24/10181 and was blown away as well 😀
Ralph Waldo Pickle Chips@simsaens woah, and it picks up the type name and uses for the filename and header comment
Romain@simsaens this is so cool !
GetSwifty@simsaens …omg this is life changing. (I was I was less serious) 😇
Kristoffer Johansson@simsaens this is really useful! Thanks for sharing!
Chris Wagner@simsaens how very Apple. Thanks for sharing. This is a very common workflow for me!
