Yes, it’s IB that is the most out of place being made to fit in with a UI design that just doesn’t suit this style of tool. The situation is even worse now we have auto layout. Its obvious to be anyway that IB really does need to implemented using specialised windows designed specially towards UI layout, not forced into a bloated out window that is designed around editing, maintaining and compiling source files and managing project settings.
