Classification:UI/Usability Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:
See attached screengrab.
The proportional width font in the results pane makes it difficult to compare formatted (hex) numbers (that's why the editor pane uses a monospaced font).
eg.
8000000000000000
ffffffffffffffff
(Alternatively, the context menu for the text includes Show Fonts, but selecting a different font doesn't change anything.)

Steps to Reproduce:
1 print formatted (hex) numbers (in a playground).
2 try to read them.


Expected Results:
Easily read the formatted (hex) numbers.

Actual Results:
Hard to read / differentiate fffffff vs ffffff (assuming you're also reading this with a proportional width font).


Version:
Xcode Version 6.3.1 (6D1002)
