Usng an image to "disable" a group

[Terry Judd]

I¹m with Scott. A similar approach I sometimes use is to chuck a plain
graphic object (black or other colour) over the group and adjust its
opacity to give the desired effect. It¹s then just a matter of hiding or
showing the graphic, which is no more difficult the enabling or disabling
the group.
