is there a simple way to insert a delay of seconds in obj-c/cocoa?
in the old system there was a Delay() function.
is there something like it in the new?
A couple of people responded with suggestions of how to do this. I'm curious why, though, along with a caution that it's almost certainly something you don't want to be doing in your main thread.

I currently employ the use of NSThread's sleepUntilDate: in a performClick: override in my custom NSControl. I basically highlight the control, delay, then unhighlight it. ___________________________________________________________ Ricky A.
