Xcode simulator shows a blank screen

I am new to mac and Xcode and trying to fit my Android application to iphone app as well. Obviously I mistook this steep learning curve I will have to go through to get started.


I bought a new Mac book Air iOS 10.12.3 and installed xcode 8.2.1 and trying to write a foodTracker sample as my Hello World. My problem is it all works when I deploy this to iPhone (Which I also bought just to migrate my app ) but when I start simulator I get half blck screen with two icons below one for safari and one for messages. When the app is launched I only get a white blank screen with not even a battery icoan anywhere.


Not sure how to proceed with this really.

Not sure how to close this but this was nuts. I moved all the controls little lower in view screen and it all started appearing. I am on my floor laughing :-)
