Description of the limitation and why it is relevant to address
As a deveIoper want to set up an application where views can be made visible/invisible based on certain logic so that users can be guided much better and have a better experience.
I think this is relevant for the VIKTOR platform because it improves adoption for users due to good user experience.
Submitter proposed design (optional)
A visible
argument on the View decorator.
Current workarounds
None

Hi Marcel
I hope you are well.
Do you know if there is a way to lock the zoom of a PDF in PDFView and also remove the download function? I am busy building an application for a research institution, and it would be great if we had the option to prevent the downloading of IP-protected files and zoom into the document as much as possible so it can only be viewed online.
Thanks.
I believe this is not possible. But I think there should be ways of presenting this by leveraging the flexibility of the WebView
.
Hi Marcel
Thanks for the response. I meant to send this as a direct message to you.
Thanks for the direction.
I’ll look into it.
Another proposal; such code would allow for view visibility per step
def _get_views(params, **kwargs):
if params.step_1.verdeling:
return ["View A"]
return []
Parametrization:
step_1 = Step(... views=_get_views)

We have started the development on this feature!
View visibility has been released in the latest SDK 14.22.0 
enabling you to dynamically switch the visibility of the view, in a similar way as how you could already do this for fields:
def get_visibility(params, **kwargs):
return params.param_x
class Controller(vkt.Controller):
...
@vkt.TableView("Results", visible=get_visibility)
def my_table_view(self, params, **kwargs):
...
more info can be found in the docs:
