CloseMap()

Summary

Closes a map window.

 

Syntax

CloseMap(string map_name)

 

Argument	Contents
map_name	The name of the map, or null for the current map

 

Notes

• The system drops layers that are referenced only in the closed map.

• CloseMap() closes the map window without executing the Close macro.

• If there is a Done macro, it is called after the map window is closed.

Example

// Here's a macro to close all open maps

maps = GetMapNames()

for i = 1 to maps.length do

     CloseMap(maps[i])

     end

 

Error Codes

Error Type	Meaning
NotFound	There is no map with the specified name, or map_name is null and the current window is not a map window
