My situation: I want to update height of side-menu (it is dynamic, its items are loaded from server). I know need to using $timeout to waiting angular build DOM done. Bellow code is right

  $scope.data = WebService.getData(function () {
      // doing something with $scope.data
      
      // must put the in here, after server return result.
      // angular using the result to build DOM again (changed everything will be destroyed)
      // using $timeout to waiting angular done
      $timeout(function() {
          $('#side-menu').css('height', ($(window).height() - 160) + 'px');
      }, 1000);
  });
