You'll have to add an action listener.

Here is the above example with an action listener added that closes the dialog:

> **Source Code:**
>
> ```auto
> from javax.swing import JOptionPane, JPanel, JLabel, JButton
> from java.awt import Dimension, BorderLayout, FlowLayout, Color, Font
> from javax.swing import SwingUtilities
> def actionPerformed(event):
> parent = event.source
> parent = SwingUtilities.getRoot(parent)
> getWindows = parent.getWindows()
> for disposableWindow in getWindows:
> try:
> if disposableWindow.title == '':
> disposableWindow.setVisible(False)
> except:
> pass
> text = JLabel("Your alert title", JLabel.CENTER)
> text.setForeground(Color.black)
> text.setFont(Font("Serif", Font.BOLD, 34))
> secondtext = JLabel("Alert message here", JLabel.CENTER)
> secondtext.setForeground(Color.black)
> secondtext.setFont(Font("Serif", Font.BOLD, 24))
> button = JButton("Close", actionPerformed=actionPerformed)
> button.background = Color.blue
> button.foreground = Color.white
> panel = JPanel()
> panel.setPreferredSize(Dimension(400,110))
> panel.setLayout(BorderLayout())
> panel.add(text,BorderLayout.NORTH)
> panel.add(button,BorderLayout.EAST)
> buttonPanel = JPanel()
> buttonPanel.setLayout(FlowLayout())
> buttonPanel.add(secondtext)
> buttonPanel.add(button)
> button.setSize(100, 50)
> panel.add(buttonPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER)
> panel.setBackground(Color.white)
> pane = JOptionPane
> pane.showOptionDialog(None, panel, '', JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION, JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE, None, [], "")
> 
> ```

Here is another example I've done in the past where the custom dialog automatically closes:

Here is an example using your custom method: def disposeDialog(self): """ Arguments: self: A reference to the component instance this method is invoked on. This argument is automatic and should not be specified when invoking this method. """ def disposeDialog(): def closeWindow(): from javax.swing import SwingUtilities parent = self parent = SwingUtilities.getRoot(parent) getWindows = parent.getWindows() for di…
