Individual Label Visiblity - False

Another minor label issue...

If you grip an individual label, right click, and change it's visibility to false(alignment station label say), how can this label be shown again? The only way I can figure out how to restore the label is to re-apply the label. Am I missing something?

If not, maybe a tall order but it would be nice if we could have a non-plotting marker similar to the pin label toggle that could be selected to restore the visibility of individual labels that have had their visibility changed to false.

Inevitably with several labels we will need to suppress and then redisplay the display of individual labels for finished drawing production.

Once the visibility property is set to false, the only way I found to set
the property to true is via the alignment properties dialog, labels tab.
For example, if you turn off the BP label of the alignment, go into the
alignment props dlg, select the labels tab, select the Geometry Points label
type, and in the upper right corner of the dlg, click Reset. Bear in mind,
this will set all the visibility property of all labels of that type back to
true.

If there is a better way, please let me know!

Very cool idea. Would you expect there to be a global setting to turn
these "invisible label" indicators on and off? Would you want to see this
indicator when a label is invisible because the visibilty is turned off in
its style, or just when its turned off in its label properties?

I'm not sure - maybe a setting in the object label or feature settings?

Show "hidden" labels = true.
Show "hidden" labels = false.

Instead of turning the label off why not create a new style that puts the label on a non-plotting layer of color and visually changes it so you can identify as having this style (like making it different/faded color) That way you can use the style type as a way to turn it on and off individually.

This is a better idea. No need to write code if it can be accomplished by an adjustment to a style.
