UICollectionView - didDeselectItemAtIndexPath not called if cell is selected

Question

The first thing I do is to set the cell selected.

- (UICollectionViewCell *)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndex         


        

Answer 1

Reloading the cell was solution for me. What i need was changing image in cell for a brief moment. I assign image to imageView in cellForItemAtIndexPath and when user touches the cell i change image and run mycode then reload the cell.

 func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, didSelectItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) {
        let cell = collectionView.cellForItemAtIndexPath(indexPath) as! MenuCollectionViewCell
        cell.backgroundImageView.image = UIImage(named: "selected")
        // handle tap events
        collectionView.reloadItemsAtIndexPaths([indexPath])
    }

Hope it helps someone.
