How to grey out a table instead of hiding it?
Maybe try something like this.
You can use a transparent text box with a grey color on top of the table box with a conditional show enabled using a variable or something. Also you can use a calculation condition on the Table box to not calculate when you dont need to show it.
Yeah but then the contents of the table will change when the table is grayed out because the filters will change.
Can't I have the table grayed out and without content unless I want to show the table?
Thanks,

Give the new overlying Text Box 0% transparency, to stop the table being visible.

Well, in that case. You can have two table box objects.
One is a normal table box object.
The other, is the same table box object but detached. So the selections wont affect this table.
Show the detached table along with an overlaying transparent text box when you dont want the user to view it. and when you do, hide this table box and show the normal table box.
to detach an object, you can simply right click on it and click detach.
hope this helps.

Don't know if it's exactly what you're looking for, but I believe you will find this example made by Matthew Crowther very inspiring:

Beware of the performance since it uses some complex expressions.
