"Best would be to show/dismiss this dialog in the Activity" I can't write code inside Activty's methods like onPause/onStop/onDestroy because the applications will not be mine always. They can be 3rd party apps.
I need a good place from where I can call popupwindow.dissmiss() when the orientation changes but not in activty's onPause etc for the above said reason.
