Alteryx chained app showing up twice

So I have been looking at Challenge #175: Tire Size Calculator. I understand how it works but at the end when I click ok to view the results, the pop up for the last question appears again. I can still exit out of it and see the results but I am just wondering why this happens.

Analytic App don't close if you press Finish, it will pop up the results. To close it you need to click Exit.

@Yallah365 If you don't have anything ticked here it will auto close:

I don't think there's any other way of controlling the auto close though.

Hi both, thanks for the reply, sorry I updated the file now and I hope it more clearly demonstrates the problem, I am basically asking why the box comes up twice when I change the output to .yxdb at the end when I go through the whole app

I think this always happens if you tick show results to user. The last app stays open and pops in front of the results window.

@Yallah365, as @IraWatt mentioned the last app screen will stay open as you are saving the file as yxdb so it will give you a popup to see the results and when the result window opens it brings the app dropdown box in front. An alternate would be to use a browse tool instead if you just want to see the end result instead of saving it to a file then it will not pop up in front.

 

Attaching the workflow with alternate solution.

 

I hope this helps!

 

Thanks!
