Two dialog boxes at once in bash script

I have my bash dialog --menu box acting nicely, but i do need second one when i choose particular option like "change user". I want that "user list" --menu dialog box to open on top of the first one(which will be in background, but won't disappear completely) with specific coordinates.

Is that possible?

regards kasper

Chain the two with --and-widget:

dialog --menu "menu 1"  ........  --and-widget --begin $x $y --menu "menu 2" .......

Menu 1 will show and once you press enter it will remain in place while menu 2 will show and take control (like a new "popup window").
