Hi all!  
I've create a button using the template node. The code to do this is the following:

```
<text x="400" y="125" style="text-anchor:middle" font-weight="bold" font-size="80" font-family="Arial">{{(msg.payload||0)? " OPEN " : "CLOSED"}} </text>
</g>

```

In certain condition, I have the need to make invisible the entire button. How can I do?  
Thanks in advance  
Paolo
