Hi,

you need to call method "set_visible" of cl_gui_docking_container.

Ex:

For visible:

CALL METHOD container->set_visible

EXPORTING

visible = 'X'

EXCEPTIONS

cntl_error = 1

cntl_system_error = 2

OTHERS = 3.

For invisible pass exporting parameter as ' '.

I found the solution and its workin fine :

logic :

STATICS:

sf_visible TYPE seu_bool VALUE cl_gui_control=>visible_true.

*

CHECK NOT L_DOCKING IS INITIAL.

*

IF sf_visible = cl_gui_control=>visible_false.

• show list

CALL METHOD L_DOCKING->set_visible

EXPORTING

visible = cl_gui_control=>visible_true.

CALL METHOD cl_gui_container=>resize.

ELSE.

• hide list

CALL METHOD L_DOCKING->set_visible

EXPORTING

visible = cl_gui_control=>visible_false.

sf_visible = cl_gui_control=>visible_false.

ENDIF.
