Hiding Subpages does not hide pagebutton

Hi Dojo,

I'm using the Visibility element | DataMiner Docs to hide some subpages based on a specific parameter's value. My issue is that while the subpages are hidden, the pagebutton that populates those subpages will continue to show the hidden subpages. Is there a better way to go about hiding subpages totally?

Hi Joshua,

As you mentioned, the Visibility element | DataMiner Docs only hides pages and subpages—it does not affect page buttons that open subpages in a popup.

Given your use case, here are a couple of alternatives you might consider:

  • Avoid using page buttons and instead use regular pages in place of subpages.
  • Create a Visual Overview for the connector, which allows you to dynamically show or hide shapes or tabs based on parameter values.

At this time, there are no plans to extend the functionality of the Visibility element further. I hope one of these alternatives works for your scenario!
