document is not under source control and nib shows as xml text

Question

since yesterday I´m getting "document is not under source control" when clicking on a nib file in the navigator. And instead of the graphical presentation I see xml.

I´ve been using the current version 4.3.2 (4E2002) since March 21st 2012. But this error came up first yesterday night. Restarting and cleaning the project didn´t help and restarting the mac didn´t help either. When switching to another project, I don´t have that problem. I´m not aware that I changed any preferences.

Any clues what´s wrong?

Solution

I found what was wrong: 'Show the version editor' was turned on. When turning it off the error is gone. Ronald

Answer 1

Try control-clicking on the nib file in the navigator and then go to "Open-As" and select Interface Builder - iOS. That should clear up your problem with it displaying as XML.

As far as it being under source control, is your project as a whole under source control? If so, what are you using?
