Is it possible to create invisible form fields in an NSIS installer? I'm using nsDialogs and currently have a checkbox that toggles some fields from to readonly/non-readonly by using:

SendMessage $TextBox1 ${EM_SETREADONLY} 1 0

I'd like to make this control visible / not visible. Is this possible? How?

I had a similar issue and ended up setting a field to be off the page to make it 'invisible'. I am no expert, but it seems to work for me:

WriteIniStr $PLUGINSDIR\Directories.ini "Field 4" "Left"  "500"
WriteIniStr $PLUGINSDIR\Directories.ini "Field 4" "Right"  "500"

Of course you need to set it back to its original position to make it 'visible' again.
