How do I close a pw-panel via script?

[dotnetic]

@ryanI have an open pw-panel, and now I want to close itself via JavaScript from inside the panel. How would I do that?

Ok, I found one solution but I don't know if it is the smartest way:

$('#pw-panel-shade', window.parent.document).click();

I think that's the best solution and I can't think of any problems using it ?

Edit: I misunderstood the question above...this post is not really relevant but I'll leave it here anyway :-).

This is how I close PW modals (in Media Manager and other modules). 

 

	/**
	 * Close jQuery UI Modal.
	 *
	 * @param integer $s Number of milliseconds before closing modal.
	 *
	 */
	function closeDialog($s = 1000) {
		setTimeout(function() {
			jQuery('iframe.ui-dialog-content').dialog('close');
		}, $s);
	}

// call the function
// if adding media into a Media Manager Inputfield and closing the dialog is set
// in this case data is an Ajax Response
if (action === "insert" && data.insertAndClose) closeDialog();

Question, are pw-panels the same as pw modals?

No, panels are the ones that slide in from left, and modals are like lightboxes.
