In addition, you can use
control.moveAbove(sibling)/control.moveBelow(sibling) to place your new
control somewhere useful.

If you use GridLayout, you can also temporarily exclude a widget from
the layout, and set it visible==false and it will disappear, instead of
disposing/re-creating.

Does this add the control in the same position.

Because i tryed the same logic of disposing the widget
and create widget and called composite.pack

it dint add in the same position. It just append the control @
end of composite ....

Right, new will just add the control at the end of the composite's
children. Use moveAbove/moveBelow to place it relative to one of the
other children.
