[Framers] Color Views: what are they FOR?

[Lin Sims]

Over on the Adobe forums, I've been interacting with a someone new to Frame
and was explaining how to set up and use conditions.

Then Bob Niland and Arnis Gubbins chimed in talking about color views. A
little experimentation has shown me what they DO. What I can't figure out
(and maybe it's just New Year's brain fuzz) is what you use them FOR. OK,
you can make something that is a particular color invisible, but the space
it occupies is still there so, unlike using a condition, the document
doesn't reflow. You're left with gaps. Not something I want in my documents
and I don't see where it would be useful.

So who has used it, and for what? Why would you choose it over using a
condition instead?
