Hello, After investigating and trying different approaches, i finally got to an ambiguous behavior of the GTK. So, when searching on this particular problem, seems like there is a bug in the GTK lib, spotted by many others. I will point you to the link that confirmed me there is actually a bug in the GTK and i am going to set this bug to WONT FIX status until this issue is fixed. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8940687/sometimes-gtk-modal-dialogs-are-not-modal-bug-or-feature (In reply to comment #1) > Hello, > > After investigating and trying different approaches, i finally got to an > ambiguous behavior of the GTK.

Created attachment 1126 [details] multiple-images-dialogs.png Steps to reproduce: 1. Launch Hob 2. Click the 'Images' button 3. Click the 'Images' button again Outcome: you have now 2 'Open My Images' dialogs. You can keep on clicking on the 'Images' button and keep on opening dialogs. Expected outcome: only one 'Open My Images' dialog should be open at any given time. That dialog should be modal (i.e. I should not be able to interact with Hob until the dialog is dismissed either by canceling or opening an image), since that is the standard behaviour of 'Open' options.
