Line 8 in UIViewController+RZDeselection.m has double dots: self..transitionCoordinator.

Thought I'd make a pull request but apparently you can't do that for gists. Anyway, here's a fixed repo. https://gist.github.com/skagedal/0babbfb6caf9d35e9ef31b70e24824d5

@skagedal fixed, thanks.

Swift 3-ified:

func rz_smoothlyDeselectRowsIn(table tableView: UITableView?) {
    // Get the initially selected index paths, if any
    let selectedIndexPaths = tableView?.indexPathsForSelectedRows ?? []

    // Grab the transition coordinator responsible for the current transition
    if let coordinator = transitionCoordinator {
        coordinator.animate(alongsideTransition: { context in
            // Deselect the cells, with animations enabled if this is an animated transition
            selectedIndexPaths.forEach {
                tableView?.deselectRow(at: $0, animated: context.isAnimated)
            }
        }, completion: { context in
            // If the transition was cancel, reselect the rows that were selected before,
            // so they are still selected the next time the same animation is triggered
            if context.isCancelled {
                selectedIndexPaths.forEach {
                    tableView?.selectRow(at: $0, animated: false, scrollPosition: .none)
                }
            }
        })
    } else { // If this isn't a transition coordinator, just deselect the rows without animating
        selectedIndexPaths.forEach {
            tableView?.deselectRow(at: $0, animated: false)
        }
    }
}

@Fawxy thanks! We also maintain an up-to-date version here: https://github.com/Raizlabs/Swiftilities/blob/develop/Pod/Classes/Deselection/UIViewController%2BDeselection.swift
