Remove a widget from an interface

[Alienhead]

( LUA )

What's the proper way to remove/delete a Textlabel widget ( or any other widget )  from an interface?  Or even better yet remove an unused interface completely ?  Tried setting it to nil and removing references but no good.

All my attempts at it have failed.

Seriously?

I thought i got answer in discord already. SetParent(nil) and widgetVar = nil, if you kept it somewhere

LUA dont allow SetParent(nil)  on the widgets, tried that yesterday.  Just errors out at runtime.

Unreferenced widgetVar = nil never removes the widget.

This seems to be something needing some attention I suppose.

I think it's a bug.  Might pay to post a small example and bug report.
