Close GUIs with X button on bar

[marko001]

Hi all guys,

I have several GUIs and the classic

$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

in my While cycle.

How can I "just" close (i.e. hide) the GUI i'm focusing and not exiting?

I know I can use Guiswitch() but sometimes I have many GUIs opened and I just would like to close the one I'm focusing.

To clarify. I developed a tool to monitor stocks. Whenever I select one it opens a graph (i.e. a GUI containing the graph).

So I could have up to 15 graphs. Let's say I want to close the 3rd. How can I give focus  (I mean not just clicking on it) and "x" to close?

Thanks,

Marco

Using

GUISetState ([flag [, winhandle]])

@Loc thanks, but it's not clear to me.

I  mean, Guisetstate() can let me change the state (show/hide for example)

If I press [X] on GUI1 (thus I'm obviously focusing it) and 

$GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

it's a general check, how can AutoIt knows i'm on that GUI? maybe I should first check which GUI is focused then kill/hide/delete that one

 

EDIT: Hmmm... If Winactive() then [...] maybe this is the solution
