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"
