• Integration with other macros.

• Support of nested macros which means Visibility macros can easily be nested and integrated with other Confluence native macros or any third-party macros

Visibility for Confluence cloud has the following Confluence Cloud limitations:

• Does not support nested macros.

  • Visibility macros cannot be placed in a container (such as inside an expand macro, etc.)

  • Cannot place a container inside Visibility macros (such as inserting an Expand macro, etc.)

• Due to the above, integration with other macros may be difficult.
