I'm currently using XCode in conjunction with Unity. When I initiate a build in Unity, it automatically runs XCode. XCode will then steal focus from whatever app I happen to be in. Is there a way of disabling apps stealing focus in OSX?

  • When you initiate a build in Unity, does a window or tab also automatically open in Xcode, or is it silent (just the app activates or becomes the focused app)?

You can add this to the Info.plist of Xcode to make it launch in the background:

<key>LSBackgroundOnly</key>
<string>True</string>

(You might need to get write privileges on the Info.plist if you downloaded Xcode from the Mac App Store)
