Regardless of whether Size Classes were on, the Attributes inspector for the view controller offered Simulated Metrics > Size, including all current iPhone form factors, plus a few others. But that isn’t the Editor menu, and the form factors _are_ there.

Sorry I should have been more specific, this is in Xcode not the Simulator. When I first created the project, clicked Main.storyboard and clicked the primary View, I saw Xcode->Editor->Size Class->Any Width->Any Height. Then when I disabled “Use Size Classes” in the File Inspector, when I went to the menubar I saw Xcode->Editor->Simulated Screen->iPhone 3.5-inch but no other submenu appears for me to choose Portrait or Landscape. Here is a screen capture:

This is frustrating because believe it or not I upgraded Xcode last night because I was having problems with constraints being corrupted, so for example I’d have to recreate a UIImageView and set the 4 outer constraints to match the parent view because the current UIImageView wouldn’t expand to the size of the screen (even though both views and constraints were identical as far as I could tell). I was hoping it was just a bug with Interface Builder, so I did a double take when this menu was missing, because it was so specific of a bug and hindered what I was doing so precisely. It’s kind of funny I suppose, one of the more ironic bugs I’ve hit in a while. But also completely exhausting because all I do is slog through stuff like this anymore :-( I will try to work around it using Size Classes I guess and then disable them when I’m done or something.
Thanks for your help,
Zack Morris
