I make a group visible=false and would like to make the one below it rise higher. How can I do this?

You can’t. It really an important feature that is currently missing from Thunkable.

I know Thunkable is working on new ways to lay out components. I don’t know if that’s part of the plan or not.

I thought they where working on resizing and positioning for DnD.

But i am not sure i heard it a few months ago.

At this time, it’s not possible. Hopefully in the future, soon, we’ll have some blocks to handle that kind of behavior.

one possible alternative is to use 2 groups with the same stuff in them in different locations, but that wont work for all use cases.
