how to remove created GUI element?

By removing all references to it.

He wants to function to do it. Like: GUIElement.remove() or something

I tried, label = null but it gave that error. So how do I remove the references?

Maybe something like that?

Code Select Expand

function onWindowClose(window) {
if (this.window == window) {
shutdown();
}
}

from test server (inventory.nut)

no.

We would like to close the GUI when InputReturn(element) is called.

Code Select Expand

myWindow <- GUIWindow( ... )

// Later when you dont need it

myWindow = null
I guess it works pretty much the same for every element.

The error I get is: trying to set 'class'

What exactly are you doing? That error doesn't make sense.

Try this
getroottable().rawset(myWindow, null);

The GUIEntity class seems to be lacking .Delete() method. I tried setting the instance variable to null and it gave an error saying 'trying to set class'. (@maxorator)

I guess you didn't notice it :[.

This is what I did: I made a label through /exe command for client script. The label showed up properly right where I wanted it to be. But, when I tried to remove it by setting that instance = null, this error popped up. However when I made a function to do this,

Code Select Expand

function GUILabel::Delete()
{
  return this = null;
}
then nothing came up, neither any error nor did the label disappear. Similar was the case when I tried getroottable().rawset.... by CrystalBlue.
The third time, I directly initialised the label through the script and set it to null under onplayershoot. When I did it, the same error came up, i.e., trying to set 'class'.

Try myWindow <- null;

[karan20000000000]

...
Try myWindow <- null;

Worked :]
Thanks.

But, could you please explain why the other methods weren't working?

[DizzasTeR]

How come that worked for you but the correct way doesn't? I simply set the variable to null and all the GUI elements corresponding to it are removed automatically.

P.S: @karan20000000000, I've guessed what you're up to, I'd tell you to leave that to me
