## Dynamic Windows (Element Visibility)
Finally, the ability to grow and shrink has been added as of release 0.20.0
While the window **appears** to be dynamic, the reality is that the elements are created up front, when you define the window layout. You will create these "extra" elements with the flag `visible=False`. Then, when you wish to show those elements, call the element's `Update` method setting `visible=True`.
After you call the `Update` method, it's important to call `window.VisibilityChanged()` so that your window can change sizes. Without that call your window will not shrink. It will grow properly, but it will not shrink. While this could have been done by PySimpleGUI on the user's behalf, the thought was that perhaps the user wants the window size to remain the same and the element simply appears and disappears, leaving a blank spot. If the window automatically grew and shrank, this would not be possible. Just buck-up and make the call to `VisibilityChanged`.
## `enable_events` Parameter
All elements that are capable of producing events now have a parameter `enable_events`. This is *identical* to the old parameter `change_submits` or `click_submits`. The idea is to standardize on 1 name that all elements use. The old parameters will continue to work, but the documentation and sample programs will steer you away from them and towards enable_events.
