RE: OpenAux (view: View; title: Title)

Hey Doug,

One (awful) way that I do it is to:

        (* Close the window that displays the offsets *)
        win := Windows.dir.First();
        LOOP
                IF win = NIL THEN EXIT END;
                win.GetTitle(title);
                IF title = "Put the origional window title you assigned here" THEN
win.Close(); EXIT END;
                win := Windows.dir.Next(win)
        END;

Granted, you have to know the title of the window. Not pretty, but it works.

Folks,

What is the proper way to close a window under program control?

Views.OpenAux(view, title) creates a visible instance.
How does one close that instance *without* handling a message?
(One is not permitted to use the mouse to click the window).

(Normally I would expect something like:
frame/handle/document := Views.OpenAux(view, title);
combined with a symmetric call of
Views.CloseAux(frame/handle/document)).
