Description

The property visibility is not implemented.
I would need especially the visibility="hidden" behavior for block elements.

Proposal for the fix for Block:

1. Change the definition of the visiblity property in foproperties.xml
to:
<property>
<name>visibility</name>
<inherited>false</inherited>
<!--
original code:
<datatype>ToBeImplemented</datatype>
<default>visible</default>
changed my [e-mail]
-->
<datatype>Enum</datatype>
<enumeration>
<value const="VISIBLE">visible</value>
<value const="HIDDEN">hidden</value>
<value const="COLLAPSE">collapse</value>
<value const="INHERIT">inherit</value>
</enumeration>
</property>

2. Put the following line at the beginning of Block#layout:

Property visibility = this.properties.get("visibility");
if (visibility != null && visibility.getEnum() == Visibility.HIDDEN)
return new Status(OK);
