Cluster hidden controls counter

Status: Declined

It would be nice to have a hidden controls counter for clusters in the lower left corner. It would also be nice to show them by context menu entry.

Hi Mahatma,

 

- you can set the cluster to show all elements, you can even set it to sort them horizontally/vertically

- the context help already shows all cluster elements

- in the block diagram you can minimize cluster constants to icons

Why do you need your proposed "hidden element" counter?

Best regards,
GerdW

It is the same with the case element. You can see at first sight if the ignore lower or upper case property is set.

When you replace a modern cluster with a system one the elements are gone and you don't see wether there was a hidden control or not.
