Sounds very silly, but please give me advice. How could I allow a user to close a window by clicking a close icon (X) at the right upper corner on the window? Minimize and maximize icons work, but close icon doesn't work.

Thank you in advance.

hi,
Use When-Window-Closed trigger at form level and write
exit_form;

If you want to do some other task on clicking the close box, write the code for that purpose.

Saadat Ahmad

Thanks for such a quick reply! However, exit_form in when-window-closed doesn't work in this case because the window I want to close by X icon is secondary and the main window also closes. I want to leave the main one open. Is there any advice?

After modifying when-window-closed with hide_window(secondary window) and go_block(main block), now X icon works. Thanks for your advice, Saadat!
