Class HandleBox

public class HandleBox extends Bin

The HandleBox widget allows a portion of the window to be "torn-off". It is a bin widget which displays its children and a handle that the user can drag to tear off a separate window containing the child widget. A thin ghost is drawn in the original location of the handlebox. By dragging the separate window back to its original location it can be reattached.
