Re: Closing Platform Windows

[Donald.Palahnuk@imclone.com]

Another option is to place a wrapper
around the display object with a specific handle to the 
wrapper window. This is a little more
robust in my experience, since the display platforms
can loose their pointers occassionaly
... why - dont know but it does happen. 

Here you go:

nw = new window("my window",
        fm
= Fit Model( Y(...), Effects(...) );
);
fit = fm << Run Model;

nw << Close Window;
fit << Close Window;

this is very robust.

Subject	Re: [jmp-l] Closing Platform Windows

This is the advice I received for closing the "fit
model" window, which 
might help you, too:

The best approach in your case might be 'divide and conquer.' You might
want to script this platform in two steps instead of one. The second step
handles running the model, like this:

fm = Fit Model( Y(...), Effects(...) );
fit = fm << Run Model;

This way you have control over both windows. You can now close either one:

fm << Close Window;
fit << Close Window;
