Use this action to close an overlay that has been opened by the current HMI user. This action is typically used on pages that are opened as overlays using the Open Page as Overlay (Action) action.

Example

Save Data to the PLC and Then Close the Overlay

Pressing the primary button in this example will execute Execute Multiple Actions (Action).

By using this approach, we can inform our PLC of a user's decision by writing some state to a variable. After triggering this action, we close the overlay that was used to gather some additional information about the decision.
