------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Nov 14 15:09:31 +0000 2007 ------- AW: There are two 'real' solutions: (a) Add a visibility state to SdrObjects (b) Delete/create the SdrObject based on visibility info outside DrawingLayer Both have caveats: With (a) the flag does not only need to be taken care of when painting, but also interaction, mouse clicks, exports, etc. Not easy to implement water-proof, very error-prone. With (b) it will always work, but how to make it visible again? No Object -> no selection... So a 'hack' (*ahem*) may be not too bad: In ShouldPaintObject for FormControl (this is the right place, not in DoPaintObject) SdrObjects, returning a 'false' will not visualize it, but it will be selectable. I think You need to define what is wanted, especially regarding the interaction possibilities... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
