I’m playing around with Dialog to create some quick views in my app (like login enter name etc)
and I’m wandering what is better: hide or dismiss.
I know what they both do but I keep wandering if it is better to just hide a Dialog and show it again when I need or to dismiss it and recreate it.
my Dialogs are small and are actually static in my code so as such I don’t hold tons of instances.
So can somebody give me the pros and cons of using hide over dismiss.
It depends on how many time your need it, and if it is expensive to create it. If it is not too expensive to create it, I would personally prefer to dismiss it, to have a “cleaner environment”. But if you’re not using hundreds of dialogs, I don’t think this really matters.
