In modern IDEs, there is a keyboard shortcut to open a file by typing its name without putting your hand on the mouse. For example:
Eclipse: Cmd|Ctrl + Shift + R -> Open Resource
IntelliJ: Cmd|Ctrl + Shift + N -> Open File
Is there a Go to file
or Open file
shortcut in Xcode?
Open Quickly The Open Quickly command can be found in Xcode's File menu. The keyboard shortcut, Command + Shift + O is much more convenient, though. The command brings up a modal that enables you to search for pretty much anything, including files, types, methods, functions, and properties.
Press Ctrl+Shift+T or choose Navigate | Go to File... from the main menu . Alternatively, you can press Ctrl+Shift+A , start typing the command name in the popup, and then choose it there.
Quick Open 👉 ⇧⌘O This shortcut will bring up the Open Quickly text box. You can use the text box to search by filename, method name, class name, etc. Just hit ↩ on the desired result to open its respective file on current active editor.
Since Xcode 4 (including 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13) it's ⌘ + ⇧ + O
Command + Shift + O is now the shortcut to find a file quickly and open it in Xcode 4
