> So I am looking to hide any line that contains no textcolor anywhere.
You might save into a variable the HTMLTEXT of all the lines that contain the textcolor. Also save the HTMLTEXT of the whole field into another variable. Then in a blink of an eye you can instantly switch between the entire text and just the lines with colored characters - and back again.
