Hello,

i do have a big filter control on a page

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/d/0/d0e43ae505a1c34164da05deebe909de665c48f5.png)

and I would like to hide it sometimes in order to see better the filtered table data

Is there a way to do so?

I have seen Split but it´s too flexible so sometimes the user can leave a lot of empty space on the bottom.

I would like to use something like accordeon wich I can´t use on this case as the filter and the table data are integrated through the button.

Any ideas welcome

Cheers,

If you're in a flex view, and you've got all the filter stuff wrapped in a container, set that containers position.display prop to false and it will act like it wasn't even there. Or change it's other position props to shrink it..

Good idea, thanks @tgarrison, I will do a toggle switch button "Filter" to show or hide the filter menu.
