While selecting a framework rather than the executable as the active scheme,
SwiftUI preview cannot use: Updating took more than 5 seconds.

However, while selecting the main app target, it can work perfectly.

Repro steps:

  1. git clone https://github.com/imWildCat/NonExecutableTargetCannotUseSwiftUIPreviewDemo

  2. cd NonExecutableTargetCannotUseSwiftUIPreviewDemo

  3. xed NonExecutableTargetCannotUseSwiftUIPreviewDemo.xcworkspace

  4. Select the “SharedUI” target as the active scheme

  5. Open the WebImage.swift source file

  6. Run the SwiftUI preview

Please note that, if you use the main app target (executable rather than the frame), it can be previewed.

I've the same problem. Preview on iOs scheme is working fine but if I switch to macOS scheme I got the same error.

Did you find a fix?
