Mainly a "wish".

View.Parent is read-only; can Anywhere Software set it as writable too?

I'm "searching" "the" best way to share B4XViews between B4XPages. The ideal (just one line) would be:
B4X: 
' my second B4XPage
B4XPages.MainPage.MyView.Parent = Root

I know this too and the reason is because Parent is read-only.

modViewsUtils - code module:
B4X: 
Public Sub MoveB4XView(xView As B4XView, Destination As B4XView)
    xView.RemoveViewFromParent
    Destination.AddView(xView, xView.Left, xView.Top, xView.Width, xView.Height)
End Sub

B4X: 
Public Sub MoveB4XView2(xView As B4XView, Destination As B4XView, Left As Int, Top As Int, Width As Int, Height As Int)
    xView.RemoveViewFromParent
    Destination.AddView(xView, Left, Top, Width, Height)
End Sub

But those routines aren't ideal, though.

Example:
MyPage2
B4X: 
Private Sub B4XPage_Created (Root1 As B4XView)
    Root = Root1
    Root.LoadLayout("layTwo")
    modViewsUtils.MoveB4XView(B4XPages.MainPage.pnlBottom, Root)
End Sub

If then I need to move pnlBottom to MyPage3 I need to know that it is now in MyPag2.
