True, hiding the control ruins the plan of using anchors here.
A more standard way would be to disable it instead of hiding.

Some sort of custom widgets could be a solution. There are component
libraries which can live side by side with LCL components.
I don't have any installed now but I remember testing some. I think I
will study them more if I need to make a fancy GUI.
