hide entity?

is there a way to show/hide an entity as a whole instead of going through .show for each thing inside of the entity?

Probably on v. 1.8 (fingers crossed :)).

You can uncross your fingers, I just opened pull request #2600 which adds this functionality. :slight_smile:

It also takes into account parent/child entities so you can do group visibility management.
