Classification:UI/Usability Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:

There is no top layout guide (referencing bottom of the navigation bar) when editing a Xib in the interface builder.  Currently use of this guide for constraints is limited to programmatic use.

Steps to Reproduce:
1) create an empty UI
2) add a view, and add an object E.g.: button or label to that view
3) attempt to add a top constraint e.g.: Control click and drag the line upwards
4) observe that no top layout guide is available to reference

Expected Results:
Expect to have a top layout guide or similar guide allowing a reference to the variable position of the navigation bar in a view

Actual Results:
No such guide exists: top of the view is the closest equivalent

Regression:
NA

Notes:
NA
