How to dismiss flutter dialog?

Question

I am new to flutter, I want to dismiss my dialog after the task completion. I've tried with:

Navigator.pop(context, true); 

But my screen is getting black and dialog is still up there. here is my dialog code.

Dialog _dialog = new Dialog(
  child: new Row(
    mainAxisSize: MainAsixSize.min, 
    children: <Widget> [
    new CircularProgressIndicator(), 
    new Text("Loading")]),     

); 

Answer 1

https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/material/showDialog.html says

The dialog route created by this method is pushed to the root navigator. If the application has multiple Navigator objects, it may be necessary to call Navigator.of(context, rootNavigator: true).pop(result) to close the dialog rather just Navigator.pop(context, result).

so I'd assume one of these two should do what you want.

This code works for me:

  BuildContext dialogContext;
  showDialog(
    context: context,
    barrierDismissible: false,
    builder: (BuildContext context) {
      dialogContext = context;
      return Dialog(
        child: new Row(
          mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
          children: [
            new CircularProgressIndicator(),
            new Text("Loading"),
          ],
        ),
      );
    },
  );

  await _longOperation();
  Navigator.pop(dialogContext);

Answer 3

If you don't want to return any result after showDialog is closed, you can use

Navigator.pop(context);

If you want to pass result call

Navigator.pop(context, result);

Example:

showDialog(
    context: context,
    builder: (_) {
      return AlertDialog(
        title: Text('Wanna Exit?'),
        actions: [
          FlatButton(
            onPressed: () => Navigator.pop(context, false), // passing false
            child: Text('No'),
          ),
          FlatButton(
            onPressed: () => Navigator.pop(context, true), // passing true
            child: Text('Yes'),
          ),
        ],
      );
    }).then((exit) {
  if (exit == null) return;

  if (exit) {
    // user pressed Yes button
  } else {
    // user pressed No button
  }
});

Answer 4

//it work conrrectly
onPressed: () {
   Navigator.of(context, rootNavigator: true).pop();
},

Answer 5

Generally Navigator.pop(context); works.

But If the application has multiple Navigator objects and dialogBox doesn't close, then try this

Navigator.of(context, rootNavigator: true).pop();

If you want to pass result call, try

Navigator.pop(context,result);

OR

Navigator.of(context, rootNavigator: true).pop(result);

Answer 6

Better to use Completer, because if your operation is too short or the device is too slow, then the dialogContext variable will not be initialized and you can't close the dialog.

final dialogContextCompleter = Completer<BuildContext>();
showDialog<void>(
  context: context,
  barrierDismissible: false,
  builder: (BuildContext dialogContext) {
    if(!dialogContextCompleter.isCompleted) {
      dialogContextCompleter.complete(dialogContext);
    }
    return AlertDialog(
      content: CircularProgressIndicator(),
    );
  },
);

// Close progress dialog
final dialogContext = await dialogContextCompleter.future;
Navigator.pop(dialogContext);

Answer 7

This will close the dialog/alert box.

Navigator.of(context).pop();

Answer 8

In 2023 here is the latest way to do that. Because in my case Navigator.of(context).pop(); didn't work

Navigator.of(context, rootNavigator: true).pop();

Answer 9

showDialog(
  context: context,
  builder: (BuildContext context) => Center(
    child: CircularProgressIndicator(),
  ),
);

await Future<int>.delayed(Duration(seconds: 3));

Navigator.of(context, rootNavigator: true).pop();

Answer 10

Add on to Günter's answers. If you need to dismiss it when the user clicks elsewhere change this property to true

barrierDismissible: true,

Answer 11

Try this. It will definitely work. use the context of pageBuilder in Navigator to pop the dialog from screen.

showGeneralDialog(
     context: context,
     barrierLabel: "XYZ",
     barrierDismissible: true,
     barrierColor: Colors.black.withOpacity(0.7),
     pageBuilder: (dialogContext, __, ___) {
       return Center(
        child: Container(
          height: 240,
          margin: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 15),
          decoration: bd,
          child: SizedBox.expand(
              GestureDetector(
                   onTap: (){
                       Navigator.pop(dialogContext);
                    },
                    child: const Padding(
                       padding: EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(10,0,10,0),
                       child: Icon(Icons.close, size: 26, color:Colors.white),
                     ),
               ),
           )
         ) 
       );
     }
  );
