Undisplay a dialog

DESCRIPTION:

Removes the window associated with a given dialog from the display.

Note: This function is deprecated. For more information, see .

USAGE:

dialog.popdown(dialog=NULL) 

OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS:

dialog
an object of class dialog, as returned by the dialog.create function. A value of NULL will cause the "current" dialog to be used.

SIDE EFFECTS:

The indicated dialog window should no longer be displayed. The resources for the window are still allocated, so later calls referring to this dialog (e.g. dialog.popup, dialog.display, dialog.getvalues) will still work.

DETAILS:

The indicated dialog window is "unmapped" via an XtPopdown() call.
