    hello,

    Im playing with the tiny time example and trying to stop the text display, but every time i add a Disabled component it errors, is this not supported or am i way off on how to do this.
    Code (CSharp):
    1.  
    2. TimeEntity = World.GetExistingSystem<ProcessUIEvents>().GetEntityByUIName("TimeText");(edited)
    3. EntityManager.AddComponentData(TimeEntity, new Disabled());
    4.

    Use RectTransform.Hidden = True to hide any UI element
    Get the rect transform from the entity, set the hidden flag to true then set the component back to the entity

    That worked thank you, one more question, how do I disable the rendering of a sprite? I tried adding a
    DisableRendering but that doesn't seem to work

    To hide SpriteRenderers, add the 
    Disabled
    component to the Entity with the 
    SpriteRenderer
    component.

    Code (CSharp):
    1. protected override void OnUpdate()
    2. {
    3.     var input = World.GetExistingSystem<InputSystem>();
    4.  
    5.     if (input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.H))
    6.     {
    7.         Entities
    8.             .ForEach((Entity e, in SpriteRenderer renderer) =>
    9.             {
    10.                 EntityManager.AddComponent<Disabled>(e);
    11.             })
    12.             .WithStructuralChanges()
    13.             .Run();
    14.     }
    15.     else if (input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.S))
    16.     {
    17.         Entities
    18.             .WithEntityQueryOptions(EntityQueryOptions.IncludeDisabled)
    19.             .ForEach((Entity e, in SpriteRenderer renderer) =>
    20.             {
    21.                 EntityManager.RemoveComponent<Disabled>(e);
    22.             })
    23.             .WithStructuralChanges()
    24.             .Run();
    25.     }
    26. }
    Note that you need to add 
    .WithEntityQueryOptions(EntityQueryOptions.IncludeDisabled)
    to your foreach-queries to find the disabled entities.
