Xcode: In debug mode, is there a way to prevent the browser from opening in the front window?

Question

I am trying to figure out how to use Xcode in a multi-window setup. I would like one window to be my main window, and then I have others that I use to edit episodes. Here's rub: I never want the navigator (or debug console, for that matter) to open in these other windows. I want the navigator and console to open in the main window.

Right now, when I launch the application, the debug navigator and the console open in any window located in front (forcing me to have both the main window and the secondary window with open console strokes and the navigator). In any case, to prevent the console from starting up and the navigator popping up in the secondary window while maintaining this behavior for the main window?

I'm not sure I fully understand what you want, but you can configure some of these things in the Xcode settings in the Behavior section. In the “Launch” section, you can click “Launch” and it will show you the behavior when you launch the application. You can configure it to display a specific tab in the active window or in a separate window. You can configure this tab to contain only the debugger. If it shows the debugger on other tabs, you can minimize the debugger panels, and I believe that it will save this state the next time it starts. See here for more details.
