gtkContainerRemove {RGtk2} | R Documentation

## gtkContainerRemove

### Description

Removes `widget` from `container`. `widget` must be inside `container`. Note that `container` will own a reference to `widget`, and that this may be the last reference held; so removing a widget from its container can destroy that widget. If you want to use `widget` again, you need to add a reference to it while it's not inside a container, If you don't want to use `widget` again it's usually more efficient to simply destroy it directly using `gtkWidgetDestroy` since this will remove it from the container and help break any circular reference count cycles.

### Usage

    gtkContainerRemove(object, widget)

### Arguments

``object`` | a `GtkContainer`
``widget`` | a current child of `container`
