How to backwards search in Xcode 4?


I cannot figure out how I can use reverse find in Xcode 4. Back in Xcode 3 I simply used CMD + F and then RETURN to search forwards and SHIFT + RETURN to search backwards. The latter shortcut combinination is no longer working in Xcode 4, though. That suckz!
I am currently using Xcode 4.2.


Solution

  • Once you've found a match, use Command-G to find the next one, and Shift-Commmand-G to find the previous one. If you prefer some other shortcuts, feel free to modify the key bindings in Xcode's preferences. From the key bindings panel:
