Animation and Removing UIButton from SuperView

Question

I am working with an animation. What I would like to happen is for the UIButton to be removed when the animation is completed, but it always disappears before the animation is completed. Am I missing something?

func buttonPressed(sender: UIButton!){

    UIView.animateWithDuration(1.0, delay: 0.5, options:[] , animations: {
        background.backgroundColor = Yellow
        }, completion: {finished in button.removeFromSuperview()})
}

Answer 1

Try this:

func buttonPressed(sender: UIButton!){

    UIView.animateWithDuration(1.0, delay: 0.5, options:[] , animations: {
        background.backgroundColor = Yellow
        }, completion: {finished in 
            if finished {
                button.removeFromSuperview()
            }
        })
}

Use the finished flag in the completion block to remove your button
