The phenomenon you're describing is a long-standing bug in Xcode that Apple does not seem interested in fixing.
I finally filed it last November as rdar://46203599. It was closed as a duplicate of rdar://9706748 (!). (That's actually rather alarming, because it's 36.5 million numbers earlier; judging my library of old and still-open bugs, that would put it at mid-2011 or so...) -ben > On 14 May 2019, at 3:20 pm, Peter Hudson <peter.hud...@me.com> wrote: > > Hi Jens > > Sorry my description was not clear.
