Sample.xcodeproj could not be opened because the project file could not be parsed. when opening Xib file in Xcode Interface Builder

Question

I am developing an application in Xamarin using Visual Studio for Mac.

When I try to open .xib (or any other interface constructor file) in the Xcode Interface Builder (8.3) for design, I get an error

sample.xcodeproj could not be opened because the project file could not be parsed.

Anyone have a solution?

Answer 1

Visual Studio for Mac Preview 8 (7.0 build 2845) fixes this problem.
