Is there a way (or tool) to update the iOS simulator in realtime?

Question

Does anyone know of a tool and/or process that allows changes to be made in Xcode and reflected realtime in the iOS simulator?

e.g. if I change the gradient color(s) in a button I can see them reflected as I finish typing?

I know Spark Inspector and/or Reveal App allow me to make changes to the simulator but as far as I know, not such complex changes as gradient colors, and it can't commit the changes to the source code. Conversely, Pixate allows me to make the changes via css and update them in realtime, but I don't want to use css and a separate framework to do this.

Thanks a bunch for any help. Kyle

You can set stuff from the debugger: How to change variables value while debugging with LLDB in Xcode?, and Xcode 3.something (maybe it was even Project Builder!) used to have this tied into the editor, but they've removed that functionality a long time ago.

You could take a look at Injection For Xcode.It is a Xcode plugin.After installing this plugin, you can modify source code, inject it into runtime, and see the change without restarting app.
