Xcode: playground does not auto fill suggestions when typing

Hello,

Xcode does not autofill suggestions when typing like it does in the videos. It will do so when I create a new playground as a new "file" and select playground. However, in the videos Amit just creates a new playground and it seems to auto fill.

BTW i do have the autofill option selected in the options

Any suggestions, its driving me nuts.

I have this problem too, I googled around and found this solution on stackoverflow:

Go to Preferences > Locations > Derived Data > click the arrow to open in Finder. Delete folder named "Derived Data". And everything works again.

Not sure why this works, but this fixed my autocomplete problem

Antoni that trick did not work for me.

I do notice that if i create a new playground and choose OS X as opposed to IOS it works.

At the top of the OS X playground there is "import Cocoa" as opposed to IOS "import UiKit"
