How can I display documentation in Xcode via CodeSense?

I am Java developer and would like to know how I can get the equivalent of a JavaDoc in Xcode when CodeSense is doing its auto-complete? If I hit the ESC button I can get a list of methods etc. but it does not show me the descriptions of what the methods do.

I am new to xcode and mac. Bring your mouse over the method name and press alt + left mouse click to see help. To see full help press alt + double mouse left click.

It's not quite the same, but the close equivalent is Quick Help, accessible from the Help Menu. It's a floating palette that dynamically shows a quick documentation for the method or class at your cursor position.
