Question

I have a UITableView displaying a set of options from which the user will select. When a row is selected the table will update to add a checkmark to that row (and remove it from all others). All is good so far.

What I want to do is close the view after the user makes the row selection but I want the tableview to update first so that the user can see the checkmark move to the correct row (however briefly this may display for).

If I do the following:

[myTableView reloadData];
[parentView closeDialog];

the table update will not show, the dialog will simply close. Any help would be appreciated.

Use this technique to call closeDialog after a delay

//afterDelay parameter represents number of seconds to delay the method call
[parentView performSelector:@selector(closeDialog) withObject:nil afterDelay:1.0 ];
