PyGtk: How to unpack boxes

Question

I'm looking for a way to unpack boxes again.

So having eg a construct like that:

# ... 
vbox = gtk.VBox()
hbox = gtk.HBox()
vbox.pack_start(hbox,False, False, 0)

label = gtk.Label("Please insert text:")
entry = gtk.Entry()

hbox.pack_start(label,False, False, 0)
hbox.pack_end(entry,False, False, 0)

vbox.show_all()
# ... 

I'm wondering how I could remove the hbox out of the vbox.

Answer 1

Each box is also a gtk.Container. Therefore there a method() which is removing the widget from container. So

vbox.remove(self.hbox)

did the trick.

(Only resizing of my dialog is pending ;) )
