Why does closing a window in Indesign doesn't work?

Question

I have a question concerning Indesign script. Why does it work, when you close a window like: submitButton.onClick = function(){ close(); } But when I try to execute a function afterwards like: submitButton.onClick = function(){ close(); tagElements(); } (note I am using the "with" tag, so no `window.close()` is needed) The window does not close? Am I forgetting about something here? Shouldn't the window close, and then execute the function? The window is initialized like: var de = new Window('dialog', 'Descriptions');

Answer 1

Are you running into the InDesign 14.0.2 'nested dialog' bug? Essentially, InDesign 14.0.2 (on Mac only) hangs if you try to close a child dialog that is opened from a parent dialog. The fix is known, but is not yet publicly available.
