Delete Sub Window

New comment
 

After removing all Objects from a sub-window eg ObjectsDeleteAll(2), I want to delete the sub-window.

Is there a function for that operation?

 

delete the sub window ? or you mean close it ?

ChartClose

but if you gonna close it why delete objects first ?

To be sure there is not a dirty windows wandering somewhere in MT4.

Close or Delete a sub-window- is there a difference?

ChartClose(ChartID()) closes all the Chart, not just the sub-window. (in my case 3)

I deleted the object first as that is the programmed Trigger to close the now empty sub-window.

 
ho, not the main window ?! ChartIndicatorDelete

This doesn't necessarily delete the subwindow.

It only deletes the selected indicator in a sub window, not the sub window

 
It deletes all indicator inside the chart though.

In sub windows or chart window.

Yes, although that is easily determined via the second parameter,

However that is not the issue, which is - I am still left with an empty sub-window.

EDIT: Seems that we have reached a dead end on this ie there does not appear to exist a function to remove orphaned sub-windows

However there appears to be a potential workaround using ChartApplyTemplate()

Some downsides are that EAs will have to be reloaded. So not an optimal solution

Probaly a better solution would have been to use CHART_WINDOW_IS_VISIBLE., unfortunately it is read only
