Most of the time - that approach works ... but sometimes I need to de-clutter the XIB.

Sometimes the XIB might be loaded with transient error messages or failure dialogs and I just want to quickly see what particular control will look like in isolation. Maybe there is a better way to do that but I'm also afraid of committing 'hidden changes' to the XIB ... so I tend to leave it alone whenever possible.

When IB was separated from Xcode, I would often open a XIB, delete a bunch of top layer controls to get to a lower level control, look at that control's properties and then close the XIB without saving it. Then, I'd open the XIB back up and place my control where I needed it.

To address your root problem… can you not select the view you're interested in in the outline view (see the tiny disclosure widget at the lower-right corner of the sidebar)?
