Is there an existing issue for this feature request?

I have searched the existing issues

Hidden settings being difficult for users to find, activate, or even know they exist.

Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?

All

Describe the solution you'd like

Incorporate Cura's "custom settings visibility" feature, where the user is allowed to select which settings to remain as visible or hidden. This helps reduce workload and improve work flow by de-cluttering the UI and making it so that the user does not have to constantly scroll through settings that they typically never use. A simple single toggle switch can be used to instantly "show all." This feature can be implemented either directly in the main window, or perhaps better through the Preferences dialog and a sub-dialog so as to prevent confusion over a checkbox being related to visibility or actually turning the setting on/off for slicing (Cura uses similar to the latter).

Describe alternatives you've considered

None
