How could I go about making a quick script to allow a user to add individual objects to a visibility list and then toggle that list on and off? My projects tend to be dozens of objects in size and I'd like to be able to select different elements with their already assigned colors, names, etc. and then turn their visibility on and off with a single click or hotkey.

I have tried Groups and have had a great deal of difficulty with Groups working efficiently - they tend to bog down the system, cause minor freezes, and generally muck up object selection when I want to pull a single element from a group and move it or copy it. In the long term Groups are probably a workable solution to my needs, but this script would still be useful for turning visibility on and off for multiple groups or elements of groups.

Thanks,
FDP
