Has probably been asked already by someone else (didn't find it though at a first look):
What is the easiest possibility to completely hide certain gui elements depending on the state of the synth/effect? Just putting a multiplexer (whose second output leads nowhere) between the mgui of the gui element to hide and the mgui component of it's parent doesn't seem to work. (Perhaps one could temporarily move the element in question to a place somewhere beyond the viewable boundaries but that solution is a little bit ugly...)

a simple visibility demo
this demo tabs visibility between two modules.
To achieve what you want, making a module invisible - rename the second wireless recieve from 'otherthing' to 'nothing', this will make it tab the visibility of the first dial between visible and invisible.
the thing is .. I am guessing you figured out where you were going wrong the instant after you posted, eh! 🙂

thanks angstrom, exactly what I was searching for!

erm, moments after looking at what you did in your schematic would be a more appropriate description... 🙂 (connecting nothing to the second output of the multiplexer doesn't seem to work (presumably one can't select outputs where nothing is connected to), so I introduced a dummy rect with size zero for the hidden status - which works.)

But you can have the first output connected to nothing..
Connect to an item twice then delete the first connection.
This has the additional advantage of the zero index being equal to a false boolean - so 'false' means don't show the item.

Thanks, nice trick!

I personally like to send an empty switch-out to a "null" module, first off so I know the loose connection isn't a mistake, but also incase they do something to the switch modlues later to make them act different.

I use the same method as infuzion and just have an empty module with a single input which i usually name Empty, i doubt it makes much difference which way you do it though 🙂

Hi,
I've not had a chance to install the latest SM as I havn't had time to backup my modules.
the wiki has a version of a similar thing
[old link]
not sure if that helps at all.
if that one doesn't work it must be due to either a bug or a replacement of a primitive.

Works fine here.. Check there isn't an old file in your recovery folder (Outsim/Synthmaker/Recovery) that SM can't open..
