Is there an option in Elements to enable “eye” toggle like Blocs or Figma has where you can instantly hide/show objects from the tree? I know the layout has hidden option but thats for different purpose. In long and complex pages I would love to simply hide element for quick check - currently for me the fastest way is to choose REMOVE and then CMD - Z for the redo which I find quite cumbersome and not ideal. Thanks

There’s currently no way to do this, but it is on our list of things to add!

Thanks Dan, great news this will be implemented. So far I really enjoying Elements. The workflow is great and the vast library of tutorials really does help to get a grip on things. Also this forum is “alive” and the support from community is amazing.
