how to enable word-wrap on xcode issues/ errors

Question

In xcode when my errors are listed i cannot read the complete string. In issue navigator also i am unable to read complete string, is there an option to enable word-wrap or is there a shortcut key for it. I work mostly on small screen this is really annoying.

Answer 1

Go to the middle of the bar on the leftmost window. Click the exclamation point, this brings you to the Issue Viewer which allows you to easily navigate through all your issues. You can also right click on an issue and ask it to goto the issue navigator.

You can also just hover your mouse above the issue for a more complete description, this only works if the message is actually cut off with an ellipsis.

If you like that log view on your small screen, you can also tell Xcode to automatically pull that up if there are any warnings or errors by going to "Preferences" and looking at the behaviors tab:
