# RemoveFunctionTail

## Description

Remove function tail. This command removes the function tail at the cursor from a function definition. If there are several parent functions for the current function tail range, IDA will ask to select the parent function(s) to remove the tail from. After the confirmation, the current function tail range will be removed from the selected function definition. If the parent was the only owner of the current tail, then the tail will be destroyed. Otherwise it will still be present in the database. If the removed parent was the owner of the tail, then another function will be selected as the owner.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.hex-rays.com/ida-9.3/ida-actions/removefunctiontail.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
