@JetForMe @dxzdb It’s been a while for me, but there used to be a confirmation dialog on “Clean Build Folder…”, which the option-key “immediately” variant bypassed.

@whybird @dxzdb Yeah, I remember that. No longer.

@JetForMe @dxzdb I’m guessing they realised that the “immediately” option was what everyone really wanted anyway, so they merged it into the default but (hopefully deliberately) left the wording change for option key in there for the comfort of old schoolers.

Please tell me they removed the ellipsis from the default one at least!

@whybird @dxzdb The default has the ellipsis. Holding option removes that and adds “Immediately”

@JetForMe @dxzdb Wait, are you saying that the default one DOES have an ellipsis but nonetheless immediately does the action with no dialog??? 👀 is nothing sacred anymore?

@whybird @dxzdb Yep. Indeed.

@gruber - this blatant HIG violation in #XCode may be further evidence of both the Dye-slipped design standards at #Apple AND contempt for developers in one!

@whybird @dxzdb @gruber Apple has been violating the HIG since macOS X was first released.
