Auto hide/show Option for ELA Components powered by Enable Rules

ELA Components powered by enable rules are shown in the various Component Groups whether they have been enabled or not. This Can make for a long list of components to present to users that may not require those components unrelated to their specific takeoff.

The request is to "hide" or "show" the components based on the enable rule assigned. For example if an estimator uses a Pick List answer to choose from smooth or deformed dowels, the only components that should populate are those enabled by the answer selected. All other components not enabled by the answer should remain hidden and out of site. Currently all components built into an ELA are shown and those not enabled are simply in grey and disabled taking up prime space on the ELA.

A hide/show feature for components with enable rules would make for a smoother and faster to navigate interface for all types of users.
