How to close a waveform window using OCEAN or SKILL

Hi everybody,

Does anyone know how to close a waveform window using OCEAN or SKILL? For example, I create a new waveform window using the function newWindow(), then I plot a curve, save it to a .png image file, and then I want to close the waveform window automatically using OCEAN or SKILL. Can I make it? Thank you for your help. I appreciate it.

 

Regards,

Winever.  

P.S. I find the awvCloseWindowMenuCB() function, but it can't seem to work with my case. I tried the following commands, but the result was not the same as I expected. It seems that the windows I created have been destroyed, but they are still there, have not been closed yet. Now, I am confused with this function. There must be something wrong, but what is it? 

The following is my command history,

ocean> newWindow()
ocean> Loading oasis.cxt
window:2
ocean> currentWindow()
window:2
ocean> awvCloseWindowMenuCB()
t
ocean> currentWindow()
nil
ocean> awvGetWindowList()
(window:157863960(destroyed))
ocean> newWindow()
window:3
ocean> awvGetWindowList()
(window:157863960(destroyed) window:3)
ocean> currentWindow()
window:3
ocean> awvCloseWindowMenuCB()
t
ocean> currentWindow()
nil
ocean> awvGetWindowList()
(window:157863960(destroyed) window:157863980(destroyed))

    Unfortunately if using IC5141, and wavescan, there's no API to close the window. It was added in IC612 - awvCloseWindow(currentWindow()

    If you were using AWD, then you could use hiCloseWindow(currentWindow()) - but that doesn't work with wavescan.

    Kind Regards,

    Andrew.
