How to delete a rendered SplunkJS view?

Hi,

I have (for example) a ChartView created with const v = new ChartView({}).render();.

How can I delete/un-render v?

Regards,

try:

splunkjs.mvc.Components.getInstance(id).remove();

where id is the object (eg. panel-id), you want to remove ...

example: splunkjs.mvc.Components.getInstance("element1").remove();

The remove function works fine. Can i recreate the chartview object that can be viewed upon creating it again with the same id:

require([
"splunkjs/mvc/tableview",
"splunkjs/mvc/chartview",
"splunkjs/mvc/searchmanager",
"splunkjs/mvc",
"splunkjs/mvc/postprocessmanager",
"splunkjs/mvc/dropdownview",
"splunkjs/mvc/multidropdownview",,
"splunkjs/mvc/textinputview",
"underscore",
"splunkjs/mvc/simplexml/ready!"
], function(
TableView,
ChartView,
SearchManager,
mvc,
PostProcessManager,
DropdownView,
MultiDropdownView,
TextInputView,
_
) {var chart = new ChartView ({
id: “element1”,
managerid: “managerid”,
wrap: true,
rowNumbers: false,
el: $("#elname")
}, {tokens: true}).render();})

When I try to recreate the ChartView component object on remove(), I am unable to view the chart on the Dashboard.
The above command ensures that the object is once again created and rendered.
Can you please suggest a way to recreate the removed Component that cab be viewed on the Dashboard
