Description

The issue is that when you right click on the app and try "show inspector" (when in debug mode having launched from Titanium Studio) nothing happens, and you get a massive Cocoa error in the log output. We have tried the fix that involves re-enabling the debug pannel in the App Settings plist file, and that doesn't help. The problem has been on various forums (including appcelerator's own Q&A site) but my answer on Stack Overflow is a decent summary of the current status, including the full error output from the log. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6444046/appcelerator-titanium-studio-1-0-1-how-to-show-inspector-on-os-x-desktop-apps/6652681#6652681 Note that the inspector works fine on some machines, and in particular my Macbook Pro is fine, but on my iMac this is very frustrating. I am happy to provide any debug information you need from either machine, if it will help fix this!

    Thomas I am assuming that the reporter has abandoned this ticket. You are welcome to create a new one, but please follow the [Jira Ticket Checklist](http://wiki.appcelerator.org/display/guides/Contributing+to+Titanium#ContributingtoTitanium-Summary%3AJiraTicketChecklist), otherwise regrettably we cannot accept it. Thank you

    hmm, I got a notification for the new comments but not the link to the new issue -- other watchers might want to check it out (this issue now marked as a clone of it at the top).

    Thomas That's because you didn't follow the checklist, a link to which I provided in a comment above. If you are willing to improve it, I will be happy to move it to the correct project. Thank you
