Despite your rather rough English you manage to get your message across ;) Why do you expect the dialogue to disappear on its own just because you set it's position to 100% ? This may be what is required in a general context and it would be wrong for it to disappear automatically. In general if you created an object (widget) and you no longer need it you should destroy it rather than hiding it. Otherwise you will probably end up with several hidden objects hanging around in memory until the plugin closes. If you want to reuse it you could keep it hidden and then bring it back but you'd have to check if you have one already. Since it's a pretty small object it does not really matter but closing it would be tidier unless there is a lot of initialisation going that you dont want to repeat.
