Hide Swift documentation in Xcode help viewer

When I browse online iOS docs for classes, it has an option to show swift, obj-c, or both. I have mine currently set on obj-c (I peek at Swift from time to time, but in my day to day work, it just clutters the docs).

Is there a way to do similar in the integrate help viewer for Xcode 6? Every time I browse a class document, I have to mentally filter out all of the swift variants.

I navigated to the bottom of those folder trees, located the files specified (one for iOS docs, one for Mac OS X docs), duplicated each file for a backup (command D in Finder), opened each file and pasted :

div .Swift {

    display: none !important;

}

at the end of each file.

Rock and Roll! Thank you pointum, you made my day.

Ref: My file path was like this. Note that your path may differ by the number just before the /CSS/

Mac OS X Documentation File (yours may differ by the 1058) ~/Library/Developer/Shared/Documentation/DocSets/com.apple.adc.documentation.OSX.docset/Contents/Resources/Documents/Resources/1058/CSS/xcode5.css

iOS Documentation File (yours may differ by the 1081) ~/Library/Developer/Shared/Documentation/DocSets/com.apple.adc.documentation.iOS.docset/Contents/Resources/Documents/Resources/1081/CSS/xcode5.css

The documentation is just a set of HTML files. If it's downloaded, you can edit a CSS file to completely hide Swift or Objective-C code.

  1. Open Documentation window.
  2. Select "Editor" > "Share" > "Open in Browser" menu.
  3. Copy the corresponding part of the address of the page that opens up:

/Users/XXX/Library/Developer/Shared/Documentation/DocSets/com.apple.adc.documentation.XXX.docset/Contents/Resources/Documents/

  1. Switch to Finder, and use "Go" > "Go to Folder" menu to open up the folder.

  2. Browse to Resources/XXXX/CSS folder and edit "xcode5.css" file. You should add either of these blocks to hide Swift or Objective-C:

    div .Swift { display: none !important; }

    div .Objective-C { display: none !important; }

  3. Restart Xcode and enjoy reduced clutter.

One way is to choose Editor -> Share -> Open in Browser. You can also make a shortcut via Preferences... -> Key Bindings or the Keyboard System Preferences.

It still opens Safari, but it is just one step, so it might be a good solution to your problem.
