For what it is worth dialogs in the Android SDK run in the main thread through a post back to the main thread.
This means the main thread will follow the thread of logic after show() and gets back to the main queue and then will paint the dialog subsequently. However the modality prevetns other UI from receivign UI input except for the modal dialog. You have to accordingly code your logic to take this into account. -- Satya Komatineni http://www.satyakomatineni.com http://www.androidbook.com On Thu, Apr 14, 2011 at 3:58 PM, Markus Junginger <mar...@greenrobot.de> wrote: > After years of using dialogs, today I got doubts that they are > strictly modal after all.
