Screen functions
These functions are used to open and close project screens.
Close
Close is a built-in scripting function that closes an open project screen.
Function Group Execution Windows Embedded Thin Client
Close Screen Asynchronous Supported Supported Supported
Syntax
Close(strScreen{ | ,optNumID })
strScreen
optNumID
The name of the screen (not including the .scr extension) to be closed.
Note: Some Web servers are case-sensitive. If you plan to deploy your project
as a Web application, then you should use only lowercase letters for the screen
name.
The specific ID or instance number of the screen to be closed, if there is more than one screen
with the same name open. (The ID is assigned when the screen is opened with the Open
function.)
This is an optional parameter. If no value is specified, then the default ID is 0.
Returned value
This function does not return any value.
Notes
This function cannot be used with Tasks or in the Global Procedures script.
Also, in some cases, you do not need to call this function to close a screen because the screen will be closed
automatically when another screen replaces it. For more information, see Screen Attributes.
Examples
Close the screen named "main":
Close( "main" )
Close the screen named "alarms":
Close( "alarms" )
Close the screen named "main" with ID 10:
Close( "main", 10 )
