Hiding ContentPanel

[micgala]

Hi.

I have a child ContentPanel which is inserted into a parent.
How do I hide (or remove) this child from its parent?

Right now, the parent is BorderLayout, so I know I can call hide in the BorderLayout...
But I do not want to be dependent on the parent's layout... since I, as a child, want to remove myself from my parent... this should be as simple as:

child.removeFromParent()

But this is not working.

Does someone have an idea on how to do this?

Tks for helping,
Michel.

Is there really no way of removing the panel from its parent without having a reference to the parent itself in case of BorderLayout?
