17.4.20 hidden

This element specifies that the glyph representing the end character of current table row shall not be displayed in the current document.

[Note: This setting is used to hide the end of row glyph in order to ensure that the entire table row is hidden and not displayed in the document, as if any part of the row is visible, the row is displayed. end note]

[Note: Applications can have settings which allow hidden content to be displayed, in which case this content can be visible - this property is not meant to supersede that setting. end note]

If this element is omitted, then this table row shall not be hidden in the document.

[Example: Consider a table with a table row in which the row is specified to be hidden. That requirement is specified using the following WordprocessingML:

<w:tbl>
  …
  <w:tr>
    <w:trPr>
      <w:hidden />
      …
    </w:trPr>
    …
  </w:tr>
</w:tbl>

In this example this row is not be displayed nor printed, as the hidden element is specified on in table row’s properties. end example]

This element’s content model is defined by the common boolean property definition in 17.17.4.
