Android Question Close file dailog on timer tick

[Sergio83]

Hello everyone, hope everything is ok for you!

I'm updating one of my personnal app where I use filedialog. I want to close the dialog on a timer tick, but after googling I guess it is not possible ...
If I understand well I should use B4XDialog white the ".Close" method.

Thanks by advance for your help

PS My B4A version and the SDK are up to date ...

Hello toby and Erel,

So to solve my problem I've probably have to setup a personnal feature.

Anyway, thanks to both of you for youre help ...
