Hi all,

I am trying to create an application with multiple chats for some kind of support system.
Therefore I use a tabfolder with two tabitems, one with answered threads, one with new threads.
On each of the tabitems I have an expandbar with multiple expanditems (with chatboxes on them)
My problem lies in moving a thread to the 'read' tab. I have to move the expandItem, or remove and recreate it. However, there are no functions for removing, hiding or moving expanditems, expandbars or tabitems.
I searched for information on the expandbar of swt, but I could hardly find any forum threads about this widget. Am I trying to do something that's not possible? How could I try to solve this problem?

To complete this post: you have to use item.dispose. so the expandItem disposes itself
