Hide/unhide value in a list

I wonder if is possible to have a CB list where a column has a hide/unhide function for the value (as the Joomla password fields), so that the values default are hidden, but by pressing a link/button they are unhidden ?

Is there a reason you need to do this? That would typically be considered bad UX causing a user an unnecessary click and removes the capability of doing at-a-glance comparisons on a list. Technically speaking anything is possible, but no this feature does not exist out of the box and would need to be added with custom JS.

Yes - there is a good reason. I need to add username and passwords for a filesserver to a userlist. And when teachers look at the list to help styudents recover their password, they only need to see that one sepcifik users password - also if the student is looking them over the shoulder, they need not to see other students passwords. Theese are children with special needs and we can not send them e-mails, and therefore we this this manual posisbility to recover their password.

There's a clever way to do this using some CSS overwise you'll need custom JS to have a blur toggle. The below is an example.

Custom HTML Field: Custom CSS (use CBs built in CSS overrides to add this to CB):
Now all you need to do is click the blurred element to reveal it. If the element isn't focused it'll be blurred. Below is how this would look using username as the substituted value. Be sure to replace PASSWORD_FIELD_HERE with whatever your field name is.

The simple CSS trick only works with elements that can be focused, which is why we've set tabindex of 0 to allow it to be focusable. Using an input or textarea element also works. I've also added the "cbClicksInside" CSS class so the userlist will allow clicking without trying to navigate to the users profile.
