Unable to set Auto Layout constraints for Launch Screen in Xcode

Question

I am trying to set up a launching screen for my app, but when I add any UI element to the view controller in the launch screen storyboard, I don't see any option for setting constraints like in the main storyboard.

What can be the possible cause?

Answer 1

Yes, you missed to check that checkmark box . For those who are facing same issue, following are the steps to enable Auto layout for Launch screen :

1) Select the launch screen view controller icon:

2) Go to the "File Inspector" on right panel:

3) Check the box saying "Use Auto layout" :

You'll be now able to set auto layout constraints to launch screen.
