Hello, Jörgen
As I know gtk itself doesnt destroy the dialog. You have to do
this in "response" callback or after gtk_dialog_run() or another
way you want.
Maybe you have "response" callback that destroys the dialog
without checking *response* vaule (BTW, GTK_RESPONSE_HELP
in your case) ? Are you keeping in mind that you can connect
more than one callback to a signal ?
You can post the piece of your source, dealing with dialog, - this will
help to find the problem.
