macOS - Anyone knows how to scale view in Xcode when programming for macOS?

How can I scale storyboard view when developing MacOS app? When I do iPhone/iPad Developement I can scale the storyboard content either by Clicking on +/- at the bottom of the storyboard pane or by holding down option key and using scrolling wheel on my mouse. None of this is available when I start MacOS projet in Xcode. How come? I could use it even more in MacOS development than in iPhone development since MacOS apps usually occupy more sreen real estate than iPhone apps. Is there anything hidden that needs to be enabled in order to scale storyboard view in Xcode?

The answer, sadly, is that Xcode simply doesn't support scaling in AppKit storyboards. It only supports scaling in UIKit storyboards.

You should file a feature request at https://bugreport.apple.com.
