    var myMenuCenter=app.menuActions.item("$ID/$$$/Command/Destroy FormField");

    myMenuCenter.invoke();

    You will need to select the object and then try something like this. There is probably a better way to do this but this should get you pointed in the right direction. This is in CS6

    I have spent various days  looking for a solution and I think this is the only way.

    Two alternatives:

    1) Add a button to the object: obj.buttons.add()

    2) Create a new button with the same properties as the page item.

    Thanks Harbs,

    All workarounds are helpful.

    So it means that a specific method does not exists.

    I believe that's correct.
