detaches any attached content from a window
| remove | boolean | (optional) set to true to remove the content permanently, false by default |
| moveTo | string|number|HTMLElement | (optional) the object's id or the object itself to move content to (if the "remove" parameter is set to false) |
Let's consider possible behavior, depending on the parameters that we pass to the method.
Assuming that we have attached Grid to a window:
var myGrid = myWins.window(id).attachGrid();
In case we need to detach Grid later, there are several possible options:
1) calling the detachObject() method without parameters:
myWins.window(id).detachObject();
The Grid object won't be completely removed. It will be attached to the document.body outside the component's container and hidden with the display:none property.
2) calling the detachObject() method with the "remove" parameter set to true:
myWins.window(id).detachObject(true);
The cell will be cleared. You need to clear the Grid object to remove it permanently.
myGrid = null;
3) calling the detachObject() method with the "remove" parameter set to false and passing an object (object's id) as the second parameter:
// assuming that a node with the id="tempNode" exists
myWins.window(id).detachObject(false, "tempNode");
The Grid object won't be completely removed. It will be moved to the "tempNode" container and hidden with the display:none property.
Note also that if you call myWins.unload(), the attached content will be removed permanently.
