RadWindow.Hide() is obsolete

[Ivan Kopcanski]

RadWindow.Hide() is obsolete and I use it a lot. I keep references to already opened windows (to gain some performance)
and now I am worried the warning saying that Hide() is obsolete and I should use Close() now. What does Close() method do
in comparisson with Hide() and what are my options now?

Hi Ivan Kopcanski,

Now the close method does the same thing as what the hide method used to do. We decided that it will be easier to have only a single method for this which is now Close. If you have any other questions concerning our controls for Silverlight feel free to contact us as soon as possible.

Thank you for the answer, this is a relief. :)

Every time I call Show/ShowDialog it will attach the same event handler to 'Opened' event, which then causes the handler to be called multiple times.

Shawn, just detach the Opened event handler after it has been called.
