Hello CCC: I am working on the Quiz App, for some reason when I start the app and then tap the screen to answer a question the pop up does not appear at the first tap. I need to tap it twice - I have checked everything and I can’t figure out why is that. Please help me. Michael

Your code in didSelectRowAt to present the ResultViewController should be:
present(self.resultDialog!, animated: true, completion: nil)
I don’t recall any part of the tutorial specifying that the completion handler had any code and in fact my version of the code is as above.
At what point are you in the Tutorial video series?
Hey Chris, thanks for the fast reply - I put it in (func presentVC () {print"presentedVC")} just to see what the app does and when it calls the completion - after viewDidAppear method as I found out. I was going to start the Networking-Video today but I have been struggling with this issue for 5h…
Thanks - I tried your code but I remember Chris saying:" I think we might don’t need “self”. Anyways I doesn’t work…
self is only needed when you refer to a property within a closure. That might not be a helpful answer as to why self is not needed particularly if the concept of a closure is new, but in time you will understand what that is all about.
Can you post the entire contents of your ViewController code so that we can take a look and identify anything that might be the problem.
The easiest way to do that is to place 3 back-ticks on a new line and then paste the code from ViewController. On the next line after place 3 back-ticks to complete the code insertion block.
Like this:
Which will result in your code looking like this in the reply

Here you go Chris thanks for helping out.
hi, i have the same problem!! but this only happens when i began lesson 8 and customising the pop up windows and placing the codes in diff places than b4 like how chris does… but then my pop window just didnt appear anymore, however when i click on the right answer, debugger shows “user got it right/wrong”. i followed all codes but hmm to no avail 
Hey Michael,
Sorry it’s been a few days since my last post. I’ve scanned through your code and can’t find an issue there so the problem is possibly elsewhere. Have you solved it in the meantime anyway?
Hi
I have the same issue with this. As naazh22 says, first tap on an answer triggers the appropriate console output, but a second tap is required to trigger the popup - interestingly, the second click can be anywhere on the app view. Subsequent questions & answers work as expected. This is only an issue on first run. I’d be grateful for a suggestion of where to look for a solution.
Hey Chris, thank you. I have just come back from my holidays in Slovenia and have not coded since then. I will let you know shortly. Cheers
