How to define popupWindowPath as parameter for ClosePopup function? I want to use a close button in a small popup screen to close it.

Same problem here. Neither the relative nor the absolute path seems to work.

Outside the popup window the command works fine though.

Any ideas?

I'm having some trouble with this as well. I am following the above directions but it still does not close my popup. I tried entering the full path but that is not accepted.

Try this:

HMIRuntime.UI.SysFct.ClosePopup("./yourPopUpNameHere");

or

HMIRuntime.UI.SysFct.ClosePopup("~/yourPopUpNameHere");

I Have tryed just now and it not works yet.

I'm sure that in V17.0 it work fine.

now with V17.1 doesn't work

I'm still having this issue with V17 UPD2.

Any news on how to solve it?

Hi,

I amn using TIA Portal V17 with WinCC Unified V17 upd. 4 and only one working function what I found is is closing all popup windows:

I wrestled with this for several hours and have come up with a work around that works well.  It is based upon the script offered in the WinCC Unified Tips offered in this FAQ:  https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/pl/en/view/109810540

I used the "1.2 Access the instance of a pop-up via its title" case to accomplish this.  It basically matches the pop-up name, and I used the ui.PopupScreenWindows(i).Close(); method to close the pop-up.  I made it a global script so that I could just pass the pop-up name into script since I have several pop-up windows in my project.  I have attached a picture of the code.

I had the same problem. 

I managed to solve it by changing the function
used to open the Popup. 


Before I was using the function:
HMIRuntime.UI.SysFct.OpenScreenInPopup("Aviso", 
"POPUP_3", true, "AVISO", 800, 300, true, undefined);  

I changed it to: 
HMIRuntime.UI.SysFct.OpenScreenByNumberInPopup
("POPUP_3",4,true,"WARNING",800,300,true,undefined);

After this change it was possible to close the popup 
with the function:  

HMIRuntime.UI.SysFct.ClosePopup("/POPUP_3");

Just to close the current window:

HMIRuntime.UI.SysFct.ClosePopup(Screen.CurrentWindow.Path);
