ExtJS Uncaught Type Error - need a simple solution re. a workaround for known issue

Seems to be a problem adding a component to a viewport in extjs due to some known issue The ideal would be:

var paneltab = Ext.create('ROMLProjectAdmin.view.MainTabPanel');
Ext.getCmp('loginregister').destroy();
Ext.Viewport.add(paneltab);

An error occurs:

Uncaught TypeError: Object function constructor(){
  // Opera has some problems returning from a constructor when Dragonfly isn't running. The || null seems to
  // be sufficient to stop in misbehaving. Known to be required against 10.53, 11.51 and 11.61.
  return this.constructor.apply(this, arguments) || null;
} has no method 'add'

Found this on the web which explains what's going on but I don't fully understand how to implement the proposed solution using 'refs' as I'm a newbie. I wondered if someone could give me a simpler explanation.

Or, based on the failing code above, can someone please give me an alternative way to launch a tab panel (in this case user logged in and so that screen is done with and now to open the main tabs).

Thanks in advance.

Ext.Viewport is just the class, you need an instance of that class in order to add components to it:

Ext.create('Ext.container.Viewport', {
    id: 'myviewport'
});

var paneltab = Ext.create('ROMLProjectAdmin.view.MainTabPanel');
Ext.getCmp('loginregister').destroy();
Ext.getCmp('myviewport').add(paneltab);
