Button Event Handler within a template

Ignition
1

I need to make the template visibility false, when a button is clicked inside the template. I guess I am having issues with component hierarchy.
The ‘Cancel’ button is to make the template invisiblle.
This is what I have right now. Thanks!

event.source.parent.getComponent('abort_template.Container').visible = False

Two things:

  1. The getComponent() method can only access one level at a time. No dot allowed.
  2. The button’s parent is already Container. No need to use getComponent() at all.

Try this:

event.source.parent.visible = False
