Close Button on Dashboard

Hello, I'm developing multiple dashboards for a single model.

Some of my dashboards contain buttons used to open other dashboards, and I already know how to create such 'OPEN' button.

Also, I want to create buttons used to close dashboards, but I don't know how to do it.

Is there anyone who can explain how to create a 'CLOSE' button for a dashboard?

Thanks.

You add a Button.

The On Press Source code is:

treenode dsb = ownerobject(c).up.up;
applicationcommand("closedockedtab", dsb);

If you place the button inside of fields you need probably more ups.

Edit: If you want to close a different dashboard, you must find it in the active view tree and parse the right pointer as second parameter into the command.
