JSL to Close Data Filter Window

[#1]

Howdy, I am trying to include in my script a line at the end that will close the data filter window once it has completed its action. The script right now will open a data filter and apply the filter I want to the target column but I can't figure out how to then get the data filter window to close. I'm not sure if it's even possible, but seems like it would be given the capabilities of JSL. I can write a line of script to close the current data table just fine, I simply can't figure out how to apply the close feature to the data filter window alone. Many thanks for any input!

Something like this?

Names Default to Here( 1 );
df = Current Data Table() << Data Filter;
Wait( 2 );
( df << Get Window ) << Close;

Here is what I have come up with

Names Default To Here( 1 );
dt = Current Data Table();
df = dt << Data Filter;
Wait( 2 );
Window( "Data Filter for " || Char( dt << get name ) ) << Close window;

Unless you are interactively changing the Data Filter values there is probably a better way in JSL to perform the tasks.  What specifically are you using the data filter for?

I swear this didn't work when I tried it initially, but, after looking at the Scripting Index, I saw it's valid and tried again.  Probably a typo in my first attempt.

Names Default to Here( 1 );
df = Current Data Table() << Data Filter;
Wait( 2 );
df << Close;

That worked a treat! Thanks for the input, I greatly appreciate it!

A bit of background: I'm using this script as a tool to identify CV values above a certain percentage. There are a number of folks I work with that have JMP but not the level of experience that my self (and one other whom I work with) have, so by creating a script, I can give this to them and they can quickly and easily identify assays with CV outliers. It shouldn't need to be a dynamic filter since it's filtering for a hard cutoff. I just didn't want the data filter window sticking around for anyone to edit or offer up greater confusion. Many thanks for the answer.

You said, "The script right now will open a data filter and apply the filter I want to the target column but I can't figure out how to then get the data filter window to close." If you are using the filter to select rows, another way without using a data filter object is to use the data table messages. Use the << Select Where( Boolean expression) message to select rows or the << Get Rows Where( Boolean expression) message obtain a list of matching rows.
