Re: [visualization-api] Undocumented dashboard methods: clear, dispose

['Daniel LaLiberte' via Google Visualization API]

Hi Santiago,

The clear() method is what you want to call to remove listeners from the
Dashboard, which is important to avoid memory leaks, but it leaves the
dashboard instance otherwise intact so it can be used again.  The dispose()
and isDisposed() methods are about disposing of the instance itself.The
dispose() method does call clear() first.

Neither dispose() or clear() will do anything with the charts and controls
inside the Dashboard, since you set them up separately.

[visualization-api] Undocumented dashboard methods: clear, dispose

[Santiago Acosta]

In connection to a topic I started at google-visualization-api/qg5-sEH3eNw 
 
, I found some undocumented methods that look like what I would need to 
solve one of my issues.

The undocumented methods are:

   - clear()
   - dispose()
   - isDisposed()

Neither of these methods require any arguments. *isDisposed* returns false 
by default until you call the *dispose* method. I know from looking at the 
function from the console in Google Chrome that *dispose* will internally 
call clear.


Does anyone know what these methods do?
