Description:

Summary: I cannot cancel a search in the search field by pressing the esc key. Steps to Reproduce: (1) Launch Xcode (2) Open a project, or open the Documentation window (3) Click in the search field (4) Type in a search term (5) Press the esc key Expected Results: The search term should disappear, and the cursor should be at the beginning of the empty search field. Actual Results: Nothing happens. Regression: The esc key is a standard way of canceling searches and works in apps such as Address Book, Dictionary, Font Book, iCal, iPhoto, iTunes, Mail, Safari, and System Preferences. Notes: There is related problem where the search field loses first responder status after clicking on the cancel button in the search field. I will add a reference to the bug after I file it. 02-Jun-2006 Jeff Johnson: Addition to Notes: The Bug ID# for the related problem is 4572126. 13-Oct-2008 Jeff Johnson: This bug still exists in the project window in Xcode 3.1.1. However, the bug seems to be fixed in the Documentation window.
