Feature request: Default hide/show nonvisual components
« on: October 21, 2025, 11:30:58 am »
I was wondering if this feature can be added to the IDE options: hide/show nonvisual components.
(under setting: IDE options - Envronment - Miscellaneous)

There is already the option "Show captions of nonvisual components", so maybe the proper place to have to add the option to hide nonvisual components by default. I always hide the nonvisual components, but I always have to right click the form to hide them with new projects, and after loading a project (this option does not seem to be saved in the project).

Please correct me if this already exists.

Yes, I noticed this a long time ago too and wanted to write a patch, but I kept putting it off until I forgot ))

Of course, this option should be added to the "Environment > Form Editor" category along with the other Designer options.

I don't know if you mentioned project options by accident, but I think it should be implemented only at the IDE level.

I totally agree 😊
Haha, like we both said, under setting: IDE options - Environment - Miscellaneous.

Either I wrote it a little clumsy or you misread 😉

Anywho ... Would be great to have that option though!
