Hello,
Does anyone know if it is possible to show hidden blocks through a procedure? Or something similar.

Thank you,

    That would be nice indeed, but no way as far as I know. Maybe to submit as an idea, even if similar things have been suggested :

    No direct way to hide/unhide a block but a workaround could be to manage it via an algorithm
    1. Add the block to the data view and mark it as hidden
    2. Add another flag block that has the same structure as the data cube used in step 1
    3. Now use the procedure to populate the flag in this flag block in step 2
    4. Add an algorithm as IF(dummy_flag1, hidden block) 
    5. Enable suppression of empty blocks
    Hope this helps
