Solution 1 - Xcode
As of Xcode 4 it seems to have changed.
command-alt-shift-left arrow will do the trick...
To fold/unfold current methods or if
structures use:
Fold: command-alt-left arrow
Unfold: command-alt-right arrow

Updates in Xcode 10
Xcode 10 has increased support for code folding, including:
- A new code folding ribbon showing all of the multi-line foldable blocks of code in the editor
- A new style for folded code in the editor that allows you to edit lines with folded code
- Support for folding any block of code enclosed in curly braces
- Support for folding blocks of code from the folding ribbon, from structured selection, or from the
> Menubar ► Editor ► Code Folding ► Fold menu item
Look at this snapshot:
Code folding was disabled in Xcode 9 beta 1, which is working now, in Xcode 9 Beta5 according to beta release note: Resolved in Xcode 9 beta 5 – IDE
Here is how:
- Press and hold ⌘ (command) button in keyboard and move/hover mouse cursor on any (start or end) braces. It will automatically highlight, block area.
- Keep (hold) ⌘(command) button in pressed condition and click on highlighted area. It will enable quick menu popover window with
Fold
option. - Select
Fold
from menu list. It will fold your code and shows 3 dots, folding/covering entire block. - Now, to again unfold your code block, release ⌘ (command) button and click on 3 dots folding a block.
For easy understanding, look at this snapshot:
It's all keyboard short cuts are also working.

Unfold ⌥ ⌘ → option + command + right arrow
Unfold All ⌥ U option + U

Code folding options from Xcode Menu:

Here is ref snapshot:
Same options from Xcode Short-cut list: > Menubar ▶ Xcode ▶ Preferences ▶ Key Bindings ▶ "Here is list of code folding short-keys"

X-Code 7 onwards
To collapse all method : Shift + Option + Command + Left arrow
To expand all method : Shift + Option + Command + Right arrow
Solution 4 - Xcode
Looks like Ctrl-Command-Up does it (or on the menu: Editor-CodeFolding-FoldMethods/Functions).
Ctrl-Command-Down or Ctrl-U to reverse.
