How do I hide inline errors/phantoms with a key binding?

#1 
  {
    "keys": ["f10"],
    "command": "exec",
    "args": {"hide_phantoms_only" : true },
  },

no longer works in ST4, it says __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'hide_phantoms_only'.

That’s because in ST4, phantoms are no longer used to show build errors. They have been replaced by something called region annotations.

Sublime Text 4: Uses the so called region annotations, that appears on the far right edge of the view. This was done mainly to reduce reflow of the document (since phantoms can cause text to shift around, which results in a somewhat janky experience).

Coming back to this, since phantoms are no longer used in ST4 to show build errors, any phantom related arguments that the exec command used to take is also no longer valid. Hence, the error.

Currently, I don’t think there is a way to have a key binding that will close all the error annotations, though there is an open feature request to make annotations more key board friendly (& closing all annotations is a part of that issue)
