# Dialog: Nested

> A dialog or alert dialog opened from inside another stacks on top. The parent steps back and a lighter backdrop covers it. Esc closes only the top one.

Example: https://hextaui.com/docs/dialog/examples/nested
Component docs: https://hextaui.com/docs/dialog.md

## Add this example

```bash
npx shadcn@latest add https://hextaui.com/r/dialog-nested.json
```

This adds `components/examples/dialog/nested.tsx` with the Dialog component and the HextaUI theme tokens.
