    <p>I am aware of the many questions regarding this topic, as I myself have asked one previously however, my issue now seems to be more related to the threading part. I have the following 2 methods.</p> <pre><code>-(void) restartTimer { NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc]init]; self.timer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1. target:self selector:@selector(dim) userInfo:nil repeats:YES]; time = 31; NSLog(@"calling restart timer"); [self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(timerImageUpdate) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:NO]; [[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] addTimer:self.timer forMode:NSDefaultRunLoopMode]; [[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] run]; [pool drain]; } -(void) resumeTimer { NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc]init]; self.timer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1. target:self selector:@selector(dim) userInfo:nil repeats:YES]; NSLog(@"calling resume timer"); [[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] addTimer:self.timer forMode:NSDefaultRunLoopMode]; [[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] run]; [pool drain]; } </code></pre> <p>The restartTimer function is called when the game begins. This works fine and the timer fires the dim selector nicely. The problem occurs when the user clicks my skip button in quick succession. [skip] updates an MKMapView and in the delegate method mapdidfinishloading the follwing is called : [NSThread detachNewThreadSelector:@selector(restartTimer) toTarget:self withObject:nil];<br> When this happens it seems several timers are created and thus my dim function is called far too often giving the appearance of the single timer running really fast? What is the best way to start and restart the timer using a secondary thread? Note this problem only seems to happen if the skip button is pressed repeatedly and quickly, while it works fine if just pressed now and again?</p> <p>Anyone have any ideas? Many thanks</p> <p>Jules</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
