A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
Currently actions can configure various different components (buttons, menus etc..), They can configure the name and enabled state amongst others but they can not control the visible state of the attached components.
This RFE is to add a new KEY VISIBLE which when changed to false will hide the components (setVisible(false)) and show the component when set to true.
JUSTIFICATION :
Currently this is not possible with the standard action / swing components.
It is possible to implement by subclassing the action and all the components that you wish to have this support, but this is not ideal.
Building support into the core swing classes to do this is much more trivial.
CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
subclass a lot of JComponents.
