In Xcode 16, even if Objective-C is selected, the Navigator in the documentation viewer displays Swift information.

I don't know when this bug was introduced, but it's there in the last Xcode 16 betas at least.

I hope as many developers as possible submit this bug to Apple to get their attention.

P.S. Yes, I know there's Dash. For many years, Dash was a much better option than Xcode's built-in viewer. However, in version 5, the Dash developer introduced some unfortunate UI changes that made Xcode a better option to view the documentation in certain cases. Unfortunately, the Dash developer doesn't seem to be interested in user feedback anymore. He's been ignoring suggestions and user requests for years by now.

Thanks.

FB15529007 has definitely made it to right folks. I can’t say anything about its status, other than to say that the bug is still present in Xcode 16.2b2 (which I think you knew already). I recommend that you continue to test with new Xcode betas as we seed them.
