Question

I have on click image and in that method i have this two pictures to set source for them:

image4.Source = (ImageSource)new ImageSourceConverter().ConvertFromString("Cards/" + player12.First() + ".png"); 

and

image5.Source = (ImageSource)new ImageSourceConverter().ConvertFromString("Cards/" + comp1.First() + ".png");

i have timer to wait but they show at the same time when execution of the method will be done. I want to reload grid after first image4.Source and then stop for two secounds with timer and then show image5.source.
Thanks

Create a class for delayed execution:

public class OneShowDispatcherTimer
{
    public static void FireAfter(TimeSpan inverval, Action callback)
    {
        Deployment.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(() =>
        {
            DispatcherTimer Timer = new DispatcherTimer()
            {
                Interval = interval
            };
            Timer.Tick += (s, e) =>
            {
                Timer.Stop();
                callback();
            };
            Timer.Start();
        });
    }
}

And use in that manner:

OneShowDispatcherTimer.FireAfter(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(2), () =>
{
    image4.Source = ...

    OneShowDispatcherTimer.FireAfter(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(2), () =>
    {
        image5.Source = ...
    });
});
