Detaching a GUI Control
 

Is it possible to detach/attach a GUI control from it's parent?
I have 4 tabs in a window and a hidden GUI for each tab.
I want to detach the 4 hidden GUIs, then re-attach them when their tab is selected.

I know I could get the same effect by hiding and showing each GUI as they're selected, but I want to know if attaching/detaching them is possible.


EDIT: Another question.. What are the options for 'sortmode' and 'sortorder' in a GuiTextListCtrl?
I'm starting to think of buying Torque, just for the GUI documentation. :(

What is wrong with just hiding/showing the GUI Controls?

He just wants to know if it's possible to break from the parent GUI. o-o

Edit: Which I don't think is possible.

Yeah, that's the easiest way.

Hiding and showing is recommended since then the controls will also be resized correctly when you resize the window. You can add controls to other window or controls by calling newparent.addcontrol(control).
sortmode and sortorder don't exist in Torque.

sortmode: either "" (none), "value", "name" or "extension". "value" sorts after the row.sortvalue, "name" sorts after row.name, "extension" after getextension(row.name). If you call textlistcontrol.sort() without setting a sortmode before, then it is using "name".

sortorder: either "ascending" or "descending"
