How to Remove the Warning "Frame for Button will be different at run time."

Question

I am using Xcode 5 developer preview. When I change or add a in the XIB file from interface builder Xcode shows this warning:

Frame for Button will be different at run time.

How do I remove this warning?

In my case it was something with the storyboard that must have been corrupted. Cutting (CMD-X) from the storyboard the object (a collection cell) and pasting it back (CMD-V) fixed it. I waste hours redoing all the constraints before that... — Michele Dall'Agata, Aug 07 '18 at 08:41

This warning is displayed when the actual position of the element is different in your storyboard than while running the app.

You can select that element and then hit Option+Cmd+=.

This will update the position of the element in the storyboard and that warning will go away.

You can also find this option in menu under Editor > Resolve Auto Layout Issues > Update Frames.

It's worth mentioning that it's a shortcut for Update Frames option in Resolve Auto Layout Issues. – Sebastian Cichosz Oct 16 '14 at 07:42

What causes this warning, i.e. why are the positions different? – sleep Sep 07 '15 at 03:28

Sometimes the only way to make this go away is to clean the build folder and/or restart Xcode. – Chris Aug 08 '23 at 15:20

Probably you have created a conflict in constraints. To resolve it Open nib file Go to editor > Resolve all constraint issues> from there you can reset all/desired constraints.

Don't remove your constraints, fix them instead, see [Enrico's answer on SO](http://stackoverflow.com/a/21199044/1693173) – progrmr Sep 23 '14 at 14:09

As of Xcode Version 6.4 (6E35b), I've found "Resolve all constraint issues" to cause more problems and re-break things I've fixed, Bart's (http://stackoverflow.com/users/461844/bart-simpson) solution below worked for me. – RayInNoIL Aug 27 '15 at 18:02
