Opening a new workspace in Xcode 4

Tags:

xcode4

I've found that if I close the default workspace window in Xcode, if I try to open any new files (including by selecting New Window), they all open up as editors, without the full functionality of the workspace window. How can I open a new workspace similar to the one that is created by default when you open a project in Xcode?

I'm pretty sure what you're looking for is:

View menu --> Show Tool Bar

Is that the secret?


A follow up tip: you often want Show Utilities. Particularly when you bring up an interface builder editing session. Cheers!
