Xcode 6 device console size?

Tags:

xcode

The device console in Xcode 6 seems to be about 12 lines long, and does not appear to be resizable. This makes it very hard to see the log output from the device, and the iPhone Configuration Utility no longer seems to work, at least not with iOS 8 devices.

Any ideas on how to resize the log output pane, or otherwise see more of the live logs?

Move the mouse slowly upward from the divider line from the console area and the top area - about 12 pixels higher even than the arrow that expands/contracts the screen (and about 40 pixels above the line), the cursor will turn into a resizing handle you can use to drag and move the dividing line.

There's no static visual indicator otherwise, it's quite far from the line.

Note this is for the console in Devices, not the debugging console where it's lots easier to figure out how to resize the window top.

Even with Kendall's instructions it can still be tricky to find the sweet spot, so here is an screenshot to make it easier:
