After your changes, there still is an apparent difference between `x-popup-menu' and `x-popup-dialog' in this respect, at least on my system. Is the following difference intentional? ELISP> (x-popup-menu (read-event) '("TITLE" ("PANE" . ("LINE1" . 1)))) Then click the mouse, the menu pops up, make it disappear by clicking the mouse away from the menu. Result: the function returns nil, fitting your above description. ELISP> (x-popup-dialog (read-event) '("PANE" . ("LINE1" . 1))) Click the mouse, the dialog pops up,. make it disappear using the window manager (on my system, I can not make it disappear by clicking away from the menu). Result: a quit, no return value. That's exactly the behavior I described to you. Yes, it is intentional.
