`close`_

`close`_ - xdel - delete

Particular cases

:close If current figure is a uicontrol one, Scilab and Matlab

close are equivalent. But if current figure is a graphic window, Scilab equivalent for Matlab close is delete(gcf()).

: :close(h) If h is a uicontrol figure, Scilab and Matlab

close(h) are equivalent. But if h is a graphic window, Scilab equivalent for Matlab close(h) is delete(h).

: :close(‘all’) Scilab equivalent for Matlab close(‘all’) is

xdel(winsid()).

: :close(name) There is no Scilab equivalent for Matlab

close(name) however, mtlb_close can be an equivalent.

: :close(‘all’,’hidden’) Scilab equivalent for Matlab

close(‘all’,’hidden’) is xdel(winsid()) but Scilab kills all figures even if they are hidden.
