Xcode Folders Auto-Expanding When Clicking “Project Navigator”

Question

Every time I re-open the Project Navigator tab in the left side of Xcode (IE move away from it into another tab and come back to it), my folders and subfolders all "magically" expand on their own. I can't seem to figure out what the problem is. It's getting really frustrating collapsing them on my own every time (even with the option- Arrow Key short cut).

Has anyone else experienced this?

Answer 1

Input any number of letters in the File filter, then close your Xcode immediately, then reopen your Xcode, then you will see the magic

Answer 2

I found a solution for this from another posted question.

Delete this file...

MyProjectName.xcodeproj > project.xcworkspace > xcuserdata > myusername.xcuserdatad > UserInterfaceState.xcuserstate

Xcode remember what folders were collapsed / opened

I also had a similar issue with the search filter for an asset catalog failing to clear. Deleting the .xcuserstate file solved that as well

Answer 3

使用CocoaPods，删除此：

MyProjectName.xcworkspace > xcuserdata > myusername.xcuserdatad > UserInterfaceState.xcuserstate

Answer 4

The solution is to click the square in the red circle. Maybe you accidentally clicked it without knowing that

Answer 5

In my case @G.Car... and @Younes Rouabah answers did not work alone. But both done the trick

Step 1: Delete File

MyProjectName.xcodeproj > project.xcworkspace > xcuserdata > myusername.xcuserdatad > UserInterfaceState.xcuserstate

Step 2: Restart XCode

Step 4: Click the square in the red circle

Restart XCode Again
