To further this idea, I'm using something similar with a notebook that does not display its tabs.  You can programatically switch which tab its on.

I would use a Notebook, then put each "screen" in a different tab.
Other wise you can put a container, like a Bin, Container, or HBox, in
your window and then use add and remove on that switch other items in
