It would be amazing to group components and turn on visibility based on the group.

That’s a great idea. Be sure to add it to the feature requests here.

Sorry for bumping this but I really feel that this is needed!

Here are some of my use cases/feature requests for this

- A grouping component that lets you add other components inside of it.
- 
  - Many settings

- 
  - 
    - Button colors

- 
  - 
    - Visibility

- 
  - 
    - Etc

- 
  - Of course, the components inside the grouping component would _inherit_ these properties. Every time the group properties would be updated, the components would update - except for when you choose not to inherit, but to make it stay in the group

- 
  - 
    - However, you could change properties while still being inherited by the parent group

Which leads us to the topic of a side by side component! A component in which you can add components (children), and instead of it displaying top to bottom, it would display left to right!

What do you guys think?

Wasn’t there mention of component groups and similar features when David announced the new builder?

David has said a few things about grouping components when he was in an interview.
