So the way I am using it now is with killfocus_cb and a timer to check if
any element still has focus. If not then I hide the dialog in the timer
call back. One issue is that if the dialog opens over the main dialog and I
click the main dialog cross and close it this dialog remains open probably
because by the time the timer call back was executed the focus came back to
this dialog. So now when exiting the main dialog I have to exit it using
iup.close()
