I solved this problem by programmatically creating the Labels and Textfields  and then Command-Dragged from the little empty circles on the left of the code to the components on the Storyboard  To illustrate my point  I wrote  IBOutlet weak var HelloLabel  UILabel   and then pressed Command and dragged the code into the component on the storyboard

Or if none of the above works  type out the name of the outlet into the file first  IBOutlet weak var headerHeightConstraint  NSLayoutConstraint  and then click and drag from the outlet in the nib to the variable you just programmatically created  It should work without any of the hassle of cleaning  building  and deleting anything

I found an easier workaround as I this bug can be found on XCODE 9   Step one go to your viewcontroller and manually write the property you want to connect as the below example  make sure you use the below format    IBOutlet weak var questionsStackView  UIStackView   Step two go to your storyboard and connect your view or whatever your trying to connect to the property you created in step 1   The above will save you time of removing and cleaning derived data
