Brilliant idea!!! That's the solution! And you could abstract it out into a sub class like this (I wish showDialog/dismissDialog weren't marked as final!): public class OrientationAwareActivity extends Activity { private static OrientationAwareActivity ACTIVE_INSTANCE; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); ACTIVE_INSTANCE = this; } @Override protected void onDestroy() { super.onDestroy(); ACTIVE_INSTANCE = null; } public void showDialogSmart(int id) { if (ACTIVE_INSTANCE != null) { ACTIVE_INSTANCE.showDialog(id); } } public void dismissDialogSmart(int id) { if (ACTIVE_INSTANCE != null) { ACTIVE_INSTANCE.dismissDialog(id); } } } --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
