How to set repeating grid "Row visibility" condition (7.1.9)
Current repeating grid control does not provide an option to control row visibility conditionally, instead, there is an option "Grid visibility" which controls entire grid visibility.
Since the entire "Grid visibility" could be controlled by the layout which contains the repeating grid control, "Row visibility" option is more useful than "Grid visibility" option in my opinion.
There are some work around to deal with this issue, for example: Hide rows in a repeat grid using a bit of code in an inline style
However, it would be more convenient if repeating grid control provide a "Row visibility" option.

There is an additional option for Row Visibility provided you do not set the 'Row Operations' to:
- Row Editing: Inline
- Inline Edit Mode: Always Editable

It's available on the click to edit option, I can understand the rationale:
When a user clicks off a row they are actively posting that row, in which case subject it to the visibility condition.
If always editable is turned on, when would the expectation be to apply the visibility?

I think the visibility is evaluated before the grid renders, click event is not a must.
the use-case what I am expecting is like below.
pyWorkParty contains many work parties with different roles, and on one screen I wanted to display a list of work parties with specific roles in editable mode.
Hi Chunzhi,
Will it be helpful for you to set the 'Edit Options' at the cell level to 'Read only (expression)' or 'Read only (when rule)' so that you can display some rows in editable mode based on your conditions.

It seems "Row visibility" condition does not render screen gracefully, there are huge gaps between rows.
If using JSP tag work around to specify in-line style, screen renders perfectly.
The two section rules used are, pyNewWorkPartyDetail and pyNewWorkPartyDetailRepeat

Interesting, Can't seem to replicate that on my ML9 instance.
As below, the filtered row is in the middle of the page list with no rendering issues:

I've also encountered the same issue - we're on 7.1.7 but the rationale is the same. In our scenario we have a list of branches - over 1800 - for selection, so must have inline row editing. However, I want to be able to filter the list based upon some criteria. I know I could achieve this by having two lists - full and filtered for display - but this is an unnecessary overhead. From a product viewpoint the logic for filtering is already there so why disable when rows can be edited?
