Show build configuration in Xcode

I have a project (C++ project within XCode 5) with multiple build configurations that I regularly switch between. Currently, to see the active configuration I have to click on the scheme and select 'Edit Scheme...' to view/change the configuration. It'd be nice to put this information somewhere more visible, or access it with a hotkey. Is this possible?

Another option that I like is to create multiple schemes. Manage schemes and select your production scheme. Click the + button to add another scheme and name it with a -Dev postfix. Select the appropriate configuration.

Now you'll have multiple schemes that can be selected from the popup-menu easily for running and archiving.

Scheme Menu

Also by using this method, stored binaries in the Archive are tagged with the scheme name which can be useful.

You can use Command+Shift+< to open the "Edit Scheme...". You can change the hotkey in XCode->Preference->KeyBindings->Menu->Product Menu->Scheme-EditScheme
