Menu options not visible after tapping on one of the menu option

Question

I am not able to show other menus on tapping a particular menu option. The behavior which I want is similar to the default cut-copy menu options that is: When I long press in UITextView area, I get select,select all and other menus. If I tap on select all, immediately i see copy, paste options.

Similar in my app, I have an image on the screen. When I long press the image, I get delete menu. When i tap on delete I should get really delete, cancel menu options. I am not able to show really delete, cancel options. Is there any way to do this. I have come across update method of UIMenucontroller. But don't know how to use it.

Try this it works.

In your menu item click event, add notification for UIMenuHideNotification and in its handler write follwoing code

- (void)didHide:(NSNotification *)notif {
    UIMenuController *mc = [UIMenuController sharedMenuController];
    dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(0,0), ^{
        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
            //create a new menu items add it to mc and display it///
            [mc setMenuVisible:YES animated:YES];
        });
    });
}
