Classification:UI/Usability Reproducible:Didn't try
 
Summary:
See attached video.  Attached project is what's in the video.

Sometimes when clicking on an error, Xcode is replacing the last error with some warnings for an unrelated file, and the replaces them.  As I click around, there's the bottom of the list flapping around spastically.  It's visually distracting as I'm trying to get work done evaluating my errors.

It'd be nice if the list was somewhat visually stable when browsing errors.

Actual Results:


Version:
Version 8.0 beta 4 (8S188o)
10.11.5 (15F34)


Notes:
It's really not that big a deal - just don't look at the rapidly blinking light, but
when these kinds of things happen day-in, day-out, it's just another heavy-sigh
death-of-a-thousand-cuts that makes using Xcode unpleasant.
