Xcode 10 Over-scroll feature

2 min readSep 25, 2018

I was using Xcode 10 beta versions for a few months before the final/GM release. I was wondering a few times but never had time to investigate if this is a feature or a bug in Xcode 🤷🏼‍♂️

Now that the final version of Xcode is out it took me only a few seconds to find the setting in the Xcode that proves that this is intended behavior and can be modified or even turned off.

Just head to the Xcode Preferences -> Text Editing

What it does is that Xcode can add an extra space at the bottom of the screen so you can easily edit the code at the bottom of the file, presented in the middle of the screen.

You can choose between Small, Medium and Large

It felt weird at first, but now I like it. I’ve chosen to use Small over-scroll setting.
