Hi @RedX2501 thank you for opening this issue. However, I don't see what you're referencing. Can you add some more information about what is missing and where specifically it's missing?

I see, i thought the linked pointed to the close API. So i mean that this page https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.windows.window.close?view=windowsdesktop-8.0 about the close method on the window class Is missing the information that ShowDialog will return false (and not null) when a dialog is closed via Close.

OK thank you for that clarification! I see what you're talking about. I'll look at getting an update in there. Thanks again!
