==== Visibility ====<br />
Invisible [[Minecraft:block]]s are intended to never be directly visible to those not directly manipulating them, due to being intended for mapmaking and other such purposes. Despite this, there are cases where they can actually be seen, directly contradicting their intended invisibility.<br />

== Other invisible blocks ==<br />
{{info needed section|At a point in time, there were invisible variants of (in Java) doors, ladders, multiple chests, (in Bedrock) end rods and probably more. Could a history section be made on these?}}<br />
<br />
The following blocks can also be invisible under certain circumstances:<br />
<br />
* {{BlockLink|Walls}}, if all states false<br />
* {{BlockLink|Moving Piston}}<br />
