Status:Closed/Duplicate/34568670 Resolved:
Product:Xcode Product Version:9.0 (9A235)
Classification:UI/Usability Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:
Using the default keyboard shortcut to invoke Refactor -> Rename... from the primary editor always opens the refactor UI in the Assistant editor. Even if the Assistant editor is closed when the command is invoked, it opens the UI in the Assistant editor. This is incongruent from invoking via ⌘+Click interface on a symbol, or right-click -> Refactor -> Rename... on a symbol.

Steps to Reproduce:
Create a new Xcode project. Single view app is fine. Go to default ViewController.swift file, place cursor on the ViewController symbol, and invoke the Rename command via the keyboard shortcut (⌥⌘R). Observe that the rename UI is opened in the assistant editor.

Expected Results:
Rename UI should open in whatever editor the command is invoked from.

Actual Results:
Rename UI always opens in Assistant editor.

Version:
Xcode 9.0 (9A235)
