iOS Constraint Priorities

Constraint priorities - cannot shift red I-bars on iPhone 4s

Following the 'Constraint Priorities' video exactly as stated, I still cannot resolve the red I-bars for the iPhone 4s screen size. I have set the vertical constraint between the 'Second' label and the bottom safe area to a priority of 750 but it is still not displaying correctly. I am using Xcode 9.3 and would be grateful for some help on this

Although it doesn't seem to work with the priority of 750 (as is used in the video), it does work when you use a priority of 500 or 250. Is this a change in Xcode 9.3?

The same issue appeared for me too. Xcode recommended - Increase vertical compression resistance of "Second" from 750 to 751 to keep it's intrinsic height before other views. Now the view appears like it does in the tutorial

Same issue here. Can someone explain what changed with the new version of Xcode ?

When I tried 500 instead of 750 it worked. I guess something had changed from the time the video was shot and now High priority is not low enough in this case.
