Re: NavCreateAskSaveChangesDialog deactivation problem

The problem is that if you click "Don't Save" and then attempt to
programmatically close your window, the window goes away. However, if you
press "D", you have to close the window twice, as the window does *NOT* go
away when you close it the first time.

This only seems to happen when you press "D" for "Don't Save."

Maybe my calling sequence differs from yours, but I simply don't see this happen. If I click Dont save or if I hit D, my window closes. It has to, because my code does not distinguish the cause of the result from ask save changes (click or type), it only acts on the result, <kNavUserActionDontSaveChanges>.

My calling sequence is a bit convoluted to post here, because it's wrapped up in a number of interacting objects, but essentially it comes down to:

user clicks close button, or app programmatically asks window to close - these both end up in the window object's close method:

Close:
if ( window is dirty )
result = ( ask save changes )
else
result = just_close_anyway

if ( result == just_close_anyway )
ActuallyClose

And of course ActuallyClose disposes the window, etc. If the window is not active when ask save changes returns having typed 'D', so what? It still closes. I'm sure I'm misunderstanding the description of the bug!
