how to hide unit`s active spells

[Skyflash]

hello i want some crazy ideas to get it done cuz i dont really know some hidden WE tricks
first of all make no mistake i know how to hide passive abilities but actually it was a clever idea to use spells`s hotkeys to run a trigger you know the WE`S keyboard system is limited to arrow keys but i need a way to hide these abilities but still i could use their hotkeys you know its kindda weird to have those spells in hero`s UI anyone got any idea?
thanks in advance

please use periods and commas

You can use (0,-11) to hide them of course but I think this also prevents hotkeys. You could still knock them off the command card by having junk abilities fill up all the slots.

You can put the spells you want in a spellbook, then create a trigger and use the action Player - Disable (YourSpellbook) for Player 1 (and all players you want)

Any hidden ability, either by Spellbook trick OR (0,-11) position will not be accessible via hotkey. This is why these stuffs usually goes for passive ones.

If you only have 1 instance of a specific ability per player, you could try this:

• Player - Disable {spell name} for Player 1 (Red))

As for triggering them with hotkeys, eh... I have no idea. It may be doable in vJASS, maybe? I strictly use GUI.
You could use other events to "Enable" the ability, use it once, then immediately "Disable" it.
I do it quite frequently for morphing spells.

Sadly, if you hide it, you can't use it with hotkey
