How-to suppress constraint and layout warnings in Xcode 5 on a storyboard?

Question

is there any flag to suppress Ambiguous Layout or Misplaced views for storyboards in Xcode 5.

I am adding the constraints in code and am just using the views in Interfacebuilder as dummies.

I do not want to apply Xcode Resolve auto layout issues since I am happy how the views appear visually in Interfacebuilder?

you could add constraints and mark them as placeholders, but I agree a lot of work for something so small — Volker, Mar 12 '14 at 12:35
`Interface Builder XIB Compiler - Options`, have an option to disable all warnings, but there is no options for individual files or kind of warnings AFAIK. — A-Live, Mar 12 '14 at 12:38
I tried it but even setting NO to warnings has no effect on layout constraints... — jack, Mar 12 '14 at 13:28
well after restarting my computer and setting nterface Builder XIB Compiler - Options WARNINGS Flag = NO the storyboard warnings disappeared thanks Volker and A-Live — jack, Mar 13 '14 at 09:07

Select Project Build Settings -> Interface Builder XIB Compiler - Options -> Show Warnings -> set to "NO"

Note that if you wish to clear existing warnings you can clean your project using Shift+⌘+k

This turns off all IB warnings, not just constraint and layout ones, and that's suboptimal. – NRitH Apr 23 '15 at 18:27
I have this option set to no, but still getting stupid warnings f.e. saying that a views frame will be different at runtime (which I can fix, but simply opening IB will bring it back...) – Georg May 12 '17 at 05:56

I needed to completely restart Xcode for the

Interface Builder XIB Compiler - Options 
WARNINGS Flag = NO

to be considered!
