My actual project throws IBDesignable errors when using Interface builder on this machine..
i tried excluding arm64 architecture for debugging, as well as some other hints i found on the internet, but no success..

the project builds fine on simulators and on real devices as well.

of course i could delete those IBDesignables and do the styling in the code side, but what if i want to use IBDesignables in the future?
hope someone knows which flag to set to correct this error..

Error:
"dlopen(MYAPP.app, 1): no suitable image found. Did find MYAPP.app: mach-o, but wrong architecture"

Same problem. Just got Apple Silicon Mac Mini. IBDesignable button has two red exclamation marks.

One thing to do:
1) Delete any tabs showing the IBDesignable item(s).
2) Clean build folder (maybe not needed).
3) Exit Xcode.
4) Restart Xcode/project.

This doesn't fix the underlying problem, but you don't have to look at error messages. (Just don't peek at your views :)
