## Block Visibility configurations

Blocks can be configured to appear only when certain conditions are met.

This configuration can be found under the **Visibility** tab.

Visibility conditions allow the checklist to adapt dynamically based on the current context.

### Visibility logic

Visibility conditions define when a block becomes visible during checklist execution.

If no conditions are configured, the block will always be visible.

:::hint{type="info"}
If conditions are defined, **all conditions must be met** for the block to appear.

### Defining a visibility condition

To create a condition:

1. Click **Choose connection**
2. Select the relevant data source
3. Choose the condition type
4. Provide the values to be compared

A visibility condition consists of three elements:

| Element    | Description                            |
| ---------- | -------------------------------------- |
| Connection | The data source used for the condition |
| Condition  | The comparison operator                |
| Value      | The value used for the comparison      |

## Available Connections

The **connection** determines which data source the condition evaluates.

Possible connections include:

- Equipment
- Order
- Entry in progress
- Output definition
- Output lot
- Trigger

These connections allow the checklist to adapt to the **current production** context.

For example, a block could be shown only when:

- a specific product is being produced
- a specific machine is used
- a particular trigger event occurred
