Popup open and close methods

Hello

Will there be any methods to close/open the extension popup in the future?

The extension can be closed at any time by calling:

window.close();

Opening it, however, currently requires a user-action.

you mean

window.close();

right?

And does it work in development mode (because of the special behavior which leaves it open to enable you to inspect it with dragonfly)?

EDIT: btw. that was your 1000th post

I just found that we have an issue with window.close() not working if the extension is installed in developer mode.

Package the extensions and install it as a normal user to test this feature of your extension.

This cost me an hour, so hoping it will save someone else’s time in the future.
