[Users] hiding the printExtent

[Marc Jansen]

Hi list,

I am using the PrintExtent-plugin of GeoExt and want to hide a drawn 
printextent on the mappanel.

What is the suggested way of doing so?

The API (http://www.geoext.org/lib/GeoExt/plugins/PrintExtent.html) has 
no hide()-method. I could easily use the internal tearDown()-method but 
am unsure if this is the best way of solving my problem.

Background: I have an accordion and one of the elements contains the 
printing-form which adds the printExtent to the mappanel. Now when the 
user decides on opening another accordion element, I want to hide the 
printextent as to not confuse the user.

Best regards and thanks in advance,

Marc
