Window close does not close overlay if window is not displayed

[Andre Beauchamp]

Hi, I have a problem where calling the close method on a window with it's parent container set to "display:none;" will not close the overlay nor fire the close event.
I believe it should still close the overlay and fire the event even if it's not visible.

I know the kendo window supports animations, but not with a callback at the end.

Hello Andre,

Indeed, the Kendo UI Window does not accept close() method calls if it is not visible on the screen.

Closing the widget with custom DOM manipulation is not recommended. What I can suggest is to show the Window's parent outside of the viewport, execute the close() method, and then hide the parent.

function Close(){
    var oWindow = $("#PopupWindow").data("kendoWindow");
  if(oWindow)
  {
    $("#PopupWindow").parent().addClass("customVisible");
      oWindow.close();
    $("#PopupWindow").parent().removeClass("customVisible")
  }
}

.customVisible {

  display: block !important;
  opacity: 0 !important;
  position: absolute !important;
  top: -3333px;
  left: -3333px;
}
